Timisoara players on £82k Bonus a man to beat us ......

[Fanzone Danny]

Just seen this.....

Martin Blackburn reports on how City’s Europa League opponents are preparing for tonight’s game. “FC Timisoara’s stars are on £82,000 a man to dump Manchester City out of the Europa League. The Romanian side are backed by oil magnate Marian Iancu. And ahead of tonight’s play-off first-leg he said: “My team will play for more money than the Manchester City players. “‘Some can get to £82,000 if they help us beat them – they are ready to play the match of their lives.’”

Don't get me wrong we should still have enough quality to blow them away but that seems a pretty big incentive and the players are going to be 100% firing if they weren't already. Add that to a apparently dodgy uneven pitch, tonight could be a little more tricky than initially expected!

Dont know a thing about them, i just think their fans will be fired up and their players will defo up their game. So just a gut feeling reallly

Balotelli 1st goal City 4-0, think positive! 110/1 btw, can't for the life of me think why! Had a cheeky pound!

Timisoara eliminated Shakhtar Donetsk last season in the Champions League qualifiers, the then UEFA Cup holders... so they can play. Really tough game this.

Im going for a hard fought 1-0 to the blues and a bald patch for me from ripping my hair out every time the stream cuts out!

4 games in I think, plus they have already played one qualifying round
