So the CL rolls around again

Given our draw this year it’s impressive important we get off to a good start

Assume we go full strength and best starting XI

Sadly I think that means Dias.

1-0 Semenyo

Nunes is fit to play and did the press duties. Be a good idea to try and keep the defence settled for Porto and the swamp so can see him playing rb.
Strong squad out there only missing Doku and Nico so expect us to go all out tonight.

Full strength and best starting 11 definitely doesn't mean Dias.
Unfortunately Maresca hasn't cottoned on to this yet.

He's said Nico should be ok for the derby as well.

Yes, heard the same. Let's see if Khus now misses out in favour of Dias but am afraid that we know the answer.

Lip reading rodri moaning about how shit valencia are. Welcome to la liga pal. Bet he wont say this in the press though.

I think Maresca knows well as far as footballing ability Dias is our 4th choice centre half. But as far as his leadership qualities is 1st choice ahead of Guehi, Khus and Gvardiol. Personally for me the pros don't outway the cons but Maresca for now favours Dias. We need to put away our chances as Porto will create a few of their own. I'd be happy with a 2-1 win. Haaland and Fernández.

Youth team currently 3-1 down. Rubbish

hope that we go strong and have a settled 11, i think its a must win as 5 wins and a couple of draws will do to get in the top 8

I know its not prem standard but they've worn all 5 league games so for have Prorto

On Amazon tonight mind

Our first #UCL line-up of the season!

XI | Donnarumma, Nunes, Dias (C), Guéhi, Gvardiol, Bouaddi, Fernández, Foden, Cherki, Semenyo, Haaland

SUBS | Bettinelli, Rulli, Anderson, Ndiaye, Kovačić, Aït-Nouri, Reis, Allan, Khusanov, McAidoo, Lewis

Giving Anderson a rest

I think we’re in for a rough night.

Foden getting his 348th chance

Hoping to get to see Allan

Should be good enough to get a result out there. A win would obviously be perfect but a draw in the grand scheme of things wouldn’t be a disaster

Come on City!

COME ON BLUE BOYS

Josko is so poor at defending
