I don’t think anywhere near the amount of people join in with the newer songs , Derry’s walls was always a belter on an European night as the teams lined up before the game , it used to set the tone , the current pre match oh oh oh etc hasn’t got the same bite and nowhere near as many join in , not the UB fault but the rest of us has slipped into only they can start songs and personally I think the majority of them have killed the atmosphere in big games Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibrox can be a special atmosphere at times but can be absolutely fucking toxic which doesn't help the players at all. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

trueblueal 2,117 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 With Jack suspended who are you all having in midfield? I'd like to see Kamara Davis Arfield and Hagi with Morelos and Kamberi up front. Hagi in the ten role. Usual back 4 and keeper. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly different to what Braga are used to. That big cliff is gonna have an effect if it's windy I would think. Where they actually play is not too far from the Atlantic coast and is quite high up (700m) , so they may be used to a bit of rainy, windy weather at this time of year.

Think because of how poor we’ve been we want him to be the one to drag us out the shit, level of expectation on him is maybe why he doesn’t seem all that so far Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenoz 30,287 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 I want VAR, I really do but not this English version. The Chelsea Man U game is farcical. Not sure my blood pressure could handle an additional mistake. It will be interesting on Thursday. I predict 2 or 3 decisions. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimfanciesthedude 24,357 Posted February 17, 2020 Share Posted February 17, 2020 Hagi is a central number ten who looks like he gets the ball and drives towards opponents defences, he can't really do that for us as he is getting the ball and having to come inside instead, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
