Fuck, great cross by Navas & Delph scores. Time to shut up me thinks

[bigblue]

woo hoo delph

[Moonchesteri]

Jesus. Cross. You know what happened next.

Get in!

[frankswift]

Nice!

[nottsblue]

agree re: Fernando, he is not a Pep player ... I can't fault him for effort or desire, I think it would take a massive transformation for him to fit into the system even as a backup.

re: boring ... players definitely look more isolated receiving the ball up top .. .Steau isn't here to get another 5 scored on them, they're sitting back. Yes we have to learn how to break that down, but in reality we are up 5 nil with no chance of losing this.

Silva and sterling make us so much more dynamic in attack, that's no surprise to anyone. Navas is not a creator, Yaya looks like he's focusing more on running than playing the game and nolito needs players operating around him. Fernando isn't a driving force in the least and Nacho isn't going to grab a game by the scruff of its neck yet.

All in all, I'm very encouraged by Maffeo, I'd love to see Angelino and Adarabioyo make appearances, and i'll take the result.

Looks like you'll get your wish with the substitutes

[bigblue]

Jesus. Cross. You know what happened next.

Get in!

Delph nailed it in!

[CTID Hants]

Unselfish AGAIN from Nacho man

[Dwaring]

Nachos a bully up top.

[Sideshow Bob]

Delph - no football brain, tries to damn hard to impress

well im impressed.

tbf i agree with your point in general. i imagine he might be a very good freestyler, but just doesn't have the footballing brain (like most freestylers) to bring that skill to bear on the pitch .

[nottsblue]

Hamstring for Iheanacho?

[Slim]

Seizure by the looks.

[bigblue]

fuck off Nacho's pulled a hammy

[PeterParker]

His knee looks bad.

Hi all! Please allow to introduce myself, my name is Vlad and I am a Romanian football historian having as main interest the history of our clubs in European Cups. After years of research and collecting I have recently started (https://www.facebook.com/retrosport.ro/) and very soon on www.retrosport.ro a portal which aims to present the tickets, the programmes, the pennants and the video highlights of the Romanian clubs in Europe.

The reason I am writing to you here is to kindly ask if any of you would be so kind to help me with this project by sending me 1-2 used match tickets and programme from Manchester City - Steaua. Also if there are collectors here, I could also send team sheets/tickets from the first leg (maybe even the matchday sports newspaper - since Steaua Bucharest has not printed one match programme in 6 years).

Hoping that my message did not bother you, looking forward for a reply,
Vlad

P.S. If any of the admins could start also a thread with my message, I would be very happy, since my account is not allowed to start a thread. Thank you in advance!

He had the vacant stare of someone going into an epileptic seizure.
