*****Bayern MUNICH v Man City***** official Match day thread

[Mark (Blue Army)]

Happy birthday, mate. It's mine too.

Happy birthday to you too mate, I fancy us tonight Come on City!!!!

[stommy]

great match lots of goals, but I think a draw is realistic

2:2

I can not wait it!!!

[Kladze]

He wasnt but never mind it's an interesting choice.

A bit harsh but he is nowhere for the goal, thought he looked lumbering against Napoli

Just watched the replay.....totally his fault for that goal.

He was drawn to the ball yes, and it turned out to be a mistake - but I'd wager that 99% of defenders would have done the same.

Basically I'd rather Van Buyten than Lescott or Kolo, why couldn't we afford 3m or whatever the fee was??

We can all speculate on what other defenders would have done..the fact of the matter is he made the mistake.

I am a little shocked at Kolo coming in but funny enough I'm not that worried as I reckon hes better than Lescott..not by much mind.

[Douglas Higginbottom]

He had no choice.It was a brilliant counter attack,credit where it's due

[bobby brows]

Lescott's done fuck all wrong this year - imo he's been better than VK so far this season. Vinnie's not reached last year's levels yet.

SPEC SAVOURS...get yourself off.

I did not know spec savers offered that kind of service!

As if jerome turned up 24 times for us? Must have been a lot of sub appearances

I know! Let's hope Das Boot is really an undercover agent

[King Kev]

Enjoyed a top birthday day out today, just put the beers in the fridge just need City to top my day off with a win.

Happy birthday, mate. It's mine too.

Happy Birthday to you both. I hope City come up trumps for you!

Kolo had better play left-hand center back otherwise vinnie will be out of position just to accomodate him

[ruralblue]

COME ON CITY! WE CAN DO THIS!!!

[Slim]

Fucking hell, ex-Blues everywhere....forgot DVB plays for them.

[CTID Hants]

I suspect kolo was chosen more for his CL experience rather than lescotts last CL outing, the beauty of having such a squad?

[ashton287]

Kolo had better play left-hand center back otherwise vinnie will be out of position just to accomodate him

Kolo should be playing left on the bench, he played 1 game from what i can remember against brum and there is no way he will be match fit after that.

[ENIAM NAM]

Let's hope NQDP is right and it's Lahm's to the slaughter!!!

[Crossie]

Van Buyten!! jesus, seems like an age ago.

[bobby brows]

Fuck me they've got a strong team

[Slim]

Let's hope NQDP is right and it's Lahm's to the slaughter!!!

I was thinking if Nasri takes him to the cleaners we'll never hear the end of it from NQDP.

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

Lescott has been our best defender this season. Superior to Vincent so far.
Kolo shouldn't be playing unless there was an injury to Joleon.
