*** Schalke vs Man City official UCL match thread***

[CTID Hants]

I think there's a game tonight...

[Saul Goodman]

Should be able to trounce them and finish the tie tonight with Away goals.
Although I thought Newport was going to be easy and that was a horrendous match

[CTID Hants]

From what I understand they will be missing 3 key midfielders tonight, 2 are ill and one is suspended..... sounds like they are being forced to play the meh!rez equivalent (joking about mahrez in case someone gets offended).

Seriously though the player was a signing from Bayern (linked with us a few weeks back) he had such a mare last week he was hooked off after 33 minutes.

How we’re lining up in the #UCL tonight!

XI | Ederson, Walker, Laporte, Otamendi, Fernandinho, Gundogan, De Bruyne, Silva (C), Bernardo, Sterling, Aguero

SUBS | Muric, Danilo, Kompany, Sané, Mahrez, Zinchenko, Foden

[blues2win]

Fernandinho in the back four. Sterling on the left Bernardo on the right but very fluid.

[PeterParker]

[Sideshow Bob]

[Sideshow Bob]

Nice line up. Little bit surprised Sane doesn’t start against his old club

[Saul Goodman]

I still dont like this back 3 in attack but Laporte at LB and Fern at CB in defense.

[sheblue]

impossible to predict a pep team selection

[iwasthere2012]

Can see it being a fluid 3-4-3 in attack, 4-3-3 in defence.
Not sure I like it, but if Schalke aren’t great it should be effective.

[PeterParker]

sane must be royally f*cked off not to be starting btw

Agree. He should had been on tonight, however, at the moment he can't start in front of Raheem and Bernie.

[bigblue]

is it fern at CB with otter and laporte left back?

Sounds about right. Probably more of a 3 at the back when we go forward too

[Mase]

The fuck has Sanè done wrong?!!

[john@staustell]

Apart from being crap lately you mean?

2 goals and 1 assist in the Champs League for us this season in 3 starts. Playing against his former club.

[Kippax Sean]

Schalke will roll over if we can score in the first 25-30 mins. Their form isn't great at the minute and they're missing a couple of top players.I think our hot streak will continue tonight with Kun bagging a couple. Come on you Blues.
