Won 3.1 with a hat trick from Carlos Borges the flying wide attacker. Twitter full of get him in the first team he's better than x or y or z!!

Clasic reaction probably from "new" City fans who wont have seen him play apart from the highlights og the goals.

He's a talent for sure and very quick and I do hope Pep is involving him with the first team to take a closer look. If we had an easy Carabao game he could easily be involved .

Stupidly conced3ed 2 more in the 2nd although they were very good strikes. I bit typical of that team though pretty good going forward but we do allow teams to break at us too easily and too often. Th team shape doesnt really allow for us losing the ball in bad positions.

But we are top of the group for sure with that result after Copenhagen surprisingly lost to Sevilla.

Disappointing at weekend as well as we conceded a last minute goal against Palce to draw that one 3.3 as well. Even more disappointing for me is fans weren't allowed in to watch it.

Need to plug that leaky defence if the boys are going to do anything in the knockout stages

Liam Delap is getting a lot of.minutes at Stoke but he is not able to find the net. 1 goal.in 12 games is a poor return considering the amount of minutes he has been given.

Hopefully it's down to the shit service. From midfield

It’s a shame Stoke were chosen purely based on the fact his dad is/was there.

There would have been better options available.
