Steaua Bucharest (h) - pre-match thread

[simon23]

i wonder if the idea of playing both fernando and delph is to make up for the lack of running/closing down that yaya cant do.........fernando is extremely defensive and delph is a real runner box to box so maybe they are there to cover for the less that mobile Yaya

 

[taconinja]

I agree,i hope he does well though

Looks like the 2nd kit,why aren't we playing in our home kit?

Dunno about the kit, but I hope we put another 5 goals past them along with a second clean sheet.

i actually think there will be some so called fans who will be gutted to see hart int he starting 11......which just goes to show every club has its fair share of idiots!

rubbish,, joe is now history Bravo is here and willy is number 2,it would have been more experience for willy to adapt to whats required,however by saying that it does let joe to say goodbye and thanks,there is no room for sentiment in football not at the kind of money our owners have invested

 

[simon23]

Why would any fan be 'gutted' to see Hart start?

I was being facetious.....and slightly off so I apologised for that

you say that there is no room for sentiment and yet you are saying that this is letting joe say goodbye......bit contradictory

I know Joe is all but gone and I completely understand and back the reasons why so Im not sure what you are posting about

he only played 45 minutes. my point is who do you know he hasn't tried to improve in that area in training. you never know he might try and pass out the back tonight :)

Joey Hart, he builds from the back, builds from the back, builds from the back
Joey Hart, he builds from the back, all for Pep

Joey Hart he kicks with his left, kicks with his left, kicks with his left,
Joey Hart he kicks with his left, all for Pep

might catch on....

Stuck at work unfortunately. I can quietly watch the game, but without sound so no point in the lead-in show for me. It's on Fox anyway, which is generally awful.

No they shouldn't, if it is his last game then he deserves a game to say goodbye

 

[PhillyBlue]

I was just thinking - what if Hart lets 6 goals in as a payback to PEP and we don't qualify.
hahahaha... don't think so...

 

[kaz7]

Home kit it is,thank god for that

Don't think so either, but he'd be subbed after the second goal.

The cynic in me says BT will give Hart motm as he's then compelled to be interviewed.

The cynic is me would ask would he be playing if it were 0-0

Oh yeah, it's awful. Apparently it doesn't matter where you are, the script is the same. Joe Hart is being treated unfairly and City don't have a soul. It's not that surprising considering United is by far the most popular club in the US. Just absolutely awful coverage though.

 

[mat]

Disgusted at the UK journos. Not one has gone for "Pep takes Hart due to Willy flop"
