[Nigels Tackle]

almost time to unbuckle your belt and settle back to enjoy this evening's offerings from naples

[kinkylola]

Oooooooh boy!

Think we will come unstuck tonight. Naples is a very difficult place to get a result. Take the point required for progression right now.

Defo take a point here. It's a bit of a weird one motivation wise as we're nearly qualified already.

We are also potentially 2 defeats (away at Napoli and WAXTAP) from playing in the Europa League.

Hope it's not a footballing case of "See Naples and die".....

......don't want to even contemplate crowd activities more in keeping with the antics of Ferdinand II of the Two Sicilies (aka 'King Bomba').

City XI | Ederson, Danilo, Delph, Otamendi, Stones, Fernandinho (c), Gundogan, De Bruyne, Sterling, Sane, Aguero #sscvcity #mancity https://t.co/xVdCoUuVCk

Win loose or draw that is the correct team.

[nottsblue]

Hope Kun gets his goal and the monkey of being the outright record scorer off his back. Plenty of pace in this line up. Wonder if we will do the traditional keep it tight and silence the home fans for 15 minutes or whether we will come out like a bat out of hell like in the home tie?

[Piccsnumberoneblue]

If you want to keep possession Big Dave should always play.

COME ON CITY

Happy with that team and bench.

LFTCU!

Its good to hear some pundits bigging us up for a change unlike lineker, wio and scholeszzzzzzz

[iwasthere2012]

Have to admit I’m not confident tonight.
I fear the worst.
Hope I’m very wrong.

[Mase]

Good to see Danilo getting a game.

[bigblue]

Lets fuck these belt-less bum stabbing cowardly cunts!

COME ON CITY!!!

Certainly a big test, but we'll have to pass tests like thils, and tougher, if we're to win this competition.

That said, anything better than a 2-1 defeat would satisfy me at this stage of the competition but, of course, a win would be wonderful and would send a very strong message to all the teams in Europe as no English team has yet won a CL game in Naples.

Booooooo! Boooooooo! Boooooooo!
