City v Dortmund (UEFA CL) – Wed 3 Oct [1v1 draw]

Unbelievable how good the Dortmund fans were, must have been several thousand in our end! They never stopped the entire match, bouncing clapping, drumming and singing in a sea of yellow. Noisiest fans I have seen at Etihad.

Hat off to them! It’s going to be very difficult if we need to get something in Dortmund to go through

We were outplayed by the team and the fans but a heroic performance from Hart meant we picked up a point with a late Balotelli penalty.

City v Borussia Dortmund

After a tough first outing in Champions league City were again rewarded a group of death

Tonight’s match City v Borussia Dortmund kicks off at 7:45

Heading down on the train now and the nerves are starting to build up, this really is a massive game already!

This will be a crucial match after Dortmund picked up 3 points in the last outing versus Ajax and we slipped up in the last minute away at Madrid.

Dortmund are fresh from a convincing win at the weekend and City coming off a great result at Craven Cottage versus Fulham.

The Dortmund fans travel in numbers and have a very vocal support, let’s hope City are up for it today!

The biggest threats from Dortmund from an attacking perspective will come from Lewandowski and Goetze. Defensively they are very solid with Hummels and Subotic both rocks in central defense!

I’d like to see Lescott and Kompany at the back today and Aguero and Dzeko; but this may be deemed to attacking

Tough to leave Tevez and Nasri out but loads of options from the bench including Balotelli
