Strange isn't it. I'd forgotten it was tonight we were playing. I am excited for the second leg already. I suppose I should be anxious about us giving a good show tonight so it's not an irrelevance.

Even if it is OD the cameras will find the one seat in the ground that's empty because someone nipped to the loo and have a headline of "Emptyhad" again!

Wouldn't doubt that for a second mate... I was just wondering because I've a mate who's a neutral and just asked if I knew whether it was sold out or not because he'll in Manchester on business .

Citywatch are tweeting that mcfc have confirmed tonight's match is a sell out

Cheers mate

I was only looking yesterday and there were loads left. Monaco are only brining a couple of taxis full of fans so 3rd tier was almost empty when I looked.

I think it's one of those "official" sell outs. Wink wink nudge nudge.

I just hope Bravo is nowhere near the starting XI or bench today.


Also, just put my beers to the fridge but if I am honest I just can't get excited about this game. Hopefully the boos or the beers can get me on the right mood later

I get what you mean bob with the wink wink sell outs. Strange that whole business...

Anyway, I'm up for it because it will be an open game and that tends to suit us, although these are dangerous as fuck.

Would love to be over at it because I've a feeling it will be a special night for some odd reason.

Come on City

Have a bad feeling about tonight. Hope I'm wrong.

monaco's odds are surprisingly long
you can get 5/1 for an away win...

IIRC the only home loss we've had since pep arrived was the anthony taylor robbery when chelsea visited?

You can get 2.7 on Betfair for a draw/away. Basically 5/2 if it's a draw or away win. Good odds for a CL game

I'm in France so miss the game, reading the mediocre then are billing Monaco as the biggest threat to a team since time began, nothing like getting behind your own.

Hello blue madmen, we gonna win this shitty competition at last , 4 1 City

I can see them winning 2-0

I think you're likely to be disappointed. Is Sagna fit?

Could see Fern1 at left back with Kolarov, Ottamendi and Sanga.

Hah, just as I called the back line and was about to predict the lineup.

Amazed to see Stones in and Kolarov on the bench.

Now that's pessimistic. I think we will score some goals.

Curious to see how we do with Aguero instead of Jesus. Can't believe I am actually thinking I'd feel more comfortable with Jesus than Kun up top.

which bench is kola on?!

Solid lineup, nice to see Big Willy and Sterling/Sane on the wings. About time that Kola is dropped, especially after the last performance. Hopefully Fern has a good game, as Monaco are a tricky team to defend against.

COME ON CITY!!!

Kola must be injured.
That's exactly the line up I had thought Pep choose with the Otter/Kolarov exception.
