****Shaktar Donetsk v City Official Match Thread****

[nottsblue]

Just out of curiosity, I seem to recall sides playing in Russia kicking off early due to the weather and timings of the KO in local time. Why then, are we playing at virtually midnight in sub freezing conditions?

I hope we can win but a draw will do

[CTID Hants]

Foden at LB????

[bigblue]

terrible call from the ref on Gundo there

[PeterParker]

Fuck me, no working joans tonight, none.

[everyonehatesus]

And yet again 5 live radio don't bother to cover our game.

[bigblue]

Even if we're not at our best, it's incredibly refreshing to go against a team that's having a go at us and can play proper football. So sick of the cowardly "great defensive jobs" from PL neanderthals packing 10 men in the box

[Nigels Tackle]

looks like tyson's been ko'd

[ENIAM NAM]

Is the bt commentator saying Mongala.

Fair play I suppose.....

[nottsblue]

Fern looks composed in that back three so far

[bigblue]

Yaya and Gundo are looking lively, Bernardo a bit sloppy in posession

[Nigels Tackle]

Fern looks composed in that back three so far

[Dubciteh]

Not so sure ik excited about foden at left wing back!

Fern sweeper is good idea he can do that in his sleep!

Sooner him than Mangala, though I would've thought Kompany will be starting. Whether he will end up next to Otter we shall see

[nottsblue]

Bugger

Weird enough, The Mangles is a big games player. Pops into my mind his performance versus Ibracunt.
We need a big guy who can have a go with that fucker Lukaku. No idea if Fern can do that.

0-1. Yaya walking back can take the blame for that one.
We had been doing surprisingly well too.
