The 2nd leg’s in about two months time.

Joke competition.

 

[TonyM]

I hope Gundogan, Bernardo and Rodri are the midfield three.

It's in three weeks?

As always I expect the worst and hope for the best in Europe. City should overwhelm them as they should any team if they play to their best.

I agree with your assessment on Amorim but I’m not so sure it’ll be an easy win

I think he's light years better than Sérgio Conceição, the Mourinho wannabe, over at Porto who is considered the next hot coaching 'prospect'.

Never easy especially with the way games are officiated, literally anything could happen.

Agreed. Would happily take a draw tonight. Just hoping that our ‘Benfica contingent’ keep their heads. We got drawn into scraps with Porto and don’t want the same tonight.

That’s a good point. The wind-ups will be all over the pitch. Hopefully we keep our heads and play them off the park.
