***Official Kiev v City Match Thread***

[TomS]

Looks like hard work next week.
We will see how hey work when it has + degrees all day....

[The Original Special One]

Hard to win when your opponent is outworking you and the ref is compliant.

The stat that I'd most like to see is the number of times players from either side dived to the ground
It must have been at least 100 by them, with about 6 by our players

[Florida Blue]

im sorry but we are just not fucking good enough

Sorry Mike, that is an excuse, we ARE good enough, we have no leadership, Mancini has looked like a fucking stick, if he were my manager I would probably fall asleep on the bench. Poor baby is probably too cold, fuck off to Italy until you are ready to motivate your team as opposed to cropping your hair and straightening your scarf.

[lets all have a disco]

Game over... We're out of this competition

No cutting edge.

[everyonehatesus]

I have to say that we have been bloody rubish infront of goal. Nothing seems to be working for the team tonight and it looks like it could be out of our reach for the second leg if we dont pull one back.

[bigblue]

10 mins COME ON

Probably better.

Erm Mr Dzeko needs to pull his socks up.

[PALUS]

ok think mancini must change somthing in his mind or go becose this is funy now lost in space city

[avoidconfusion]

Ah well, one less competition to worry about I suppose. Sick and tired of us looking so fucking clueless tho.

[Manx Blue]

Game over... We're out of this competition

No cutting edge.

None until CT appeared anyway.

[hyper]

Fucking pathetic performance. Everything we do looks overly complicated, unforced errors all over the pitch. Absolute shite. Why the Fuck do I wish we played with speed and Passion of whoever the Fuck it is we're playing.

that is very true. lots of fannying about.

[blues2win]

I can see us having to work all night long next Thursday, going out and then having nothing left at Chelsea and getting nothing. Hard to blame Micah but he was a little slow to react. Actually it was against the run of play. We'd played better in this half.

I think the Europa Cup is a disaster. Getting home at 4am on Friday and then playing on Sunday and then on Thursday and then on Sunday. Spurs have no matches for 10 days after last night. I don't like Mancini's public excuses but it does make a difference.

[lets all have a disco]

Weve carved them open four fucking times.

FINAL BASTARD BALL EVERY SINGLE TIME.

[Sister of fu]

Final ball is crap. I do think we can beat these at home though.

[PALUS]

philips now philips is good when u go on counter, mancini u are lost

[guv111]

This referee is astonishingly bad. It's not an excuse, though, City have been shocking- again. Mancini just isn't up to the job. Why have we been steadily getting worse and worse managers since Eriksson? Who's next, Avram Grant?

[lets all have a disco]

Final ball is crap. I do think we can beat these at home though.

We can beat them alright but if they get a third we wont beat them 4-0.

Whooo we had a shot.

[PeterParker]

We are playing like we have 2 up front. Someone just fucking shoot already/

[The Original Special One]

Looks like the ref has, FINALLY, cottoned on to their diving.
(Only about 85 minutes too late, though!)
