Next: Dynamo Kiev

[phips]

Liverpool are hopeless, Klopp is a one trick pony with average players and it is a cup final so we will put the effort in.

so when they smashed us 4-1 it was because we didn't put the effort in?

What else would it be?

shite defending that was irrespective of effort.

[lets all have a disco]

I might watch the brits.

[collins88]

Yea - true and true

I had erased that last cup final from my memory for obvious reasons
and I had a basin of the black stuff on Sunday...must be still affected

will re-visit when I recover

I haven't erased the last cup final from my memory! It was when we beat Sunderland. Hope that helps...

same here, mate! we got to have something to keep us going.

It all stemmed from lack of effort. Watch the first 20 minutes of that game again and you'll notice the massive difference in attitude between both sides, we came out with an arrogant, blasé attitude whereas they came into the game all guns blazing, the game was over before we decided to wake up and start putting a proper effort in.

Sally Big Nose on BBC Sport this morning said that Kiev hadn't had a competitive match since whenever - as if to say there is no way that City should lose. Or am I being a tad hyper-sensitive?

[Beefymcfc]

Maybe a tad sensitive mate, but it's normal to be weary of the media. DK have been on their winter break but have played quite a few friendlies in sunnier climes.

They will be ready for this, be assured of it.

I am concerned going into this match with the idiot we have in charge.

They're a seasoned European team, winter break or not, and no pushover by any stretch of the imagination. If we're not up for it we will be out of 2 competitions in the space of 4 days

Worse than that, we could vbe out of 3 comps in 8 days; 4 in 11 days if we lose to the Dippers next Wednesday!

[blues2win]

Yes Beefy and it's possible that we'll be well on the way to the quarter finals of the CL have a Cup under our belt and made it back into the race for Premiership. Let's be positive while we can!

Yeah, that's how I see it mate. Just wanted to emphasise that it could always be 'worse'. Us fans don't know how good we've got it sometimes. Here we are in February, still fighting in 3 corners, and could've been 4 if the cunts hadn't fucked us over with scheduling.

I see like this. We had to make a decision on throwing the FA Cup in favour of 3 other competitions. The Rags, on the other hand, had to fight it out just to have a realistic chance of staying in 1 comp, against a club 60 places below them.

How times have changed.

Hart
Zaba Kompany otter Clichy
Fern 1 Fern 2
Silva Yaya Sterling
Aguero

Cant see it being anything but this.
Unless he drops Fern 2 and goes 4-4-2 with Nacho.

Fern 2 is useless, such a pity we have no one else. I thought Aleix Garcia was everything Fern 2 should aspire to be last week.

Looks like tonight's ref isn't too card shy, he's issued 40 yellows & 2 reds in his last 9 games (all comps this will be only his 4th UCL game)..... Antonio Mateu Lahoz from Spain.

This is could be beneficial to us as Dynamo have 4 players who if they receive a yellow tonight will be out of the second leg.

Danilo Silva, Serhiy Rybalka, Nikita Korzun, Vitali Buyalskiy.

Us on the other hand have no players who would suffer a similar fate if booked.

Also i read somewhere that Andriy Yarmolenko their biggest threat (13 goals in 22 so far this season, again all comps) is a doubt to play through injury picked up before their winter break.

Now I've said all that, watch one of ours get a red LOL

We usually get a red card at this stage of the CL for absolutely zilcho ! Just sayin !

Well he was the opposite? Weird isn't it.
