Just read it’s expected to be -9 degrees at kick off. :haha:
Fuck that.
Surely we will take a complete second string for this?

Think we'll need more than second string for this will have to be a thick thermals job ;)
Martial law might be more of an issue than the cold.
Still, perfect chance to leave some players stranded in the Ukraine.
Is there any benefit to topping it rather than coming second?
Topping the group that is....
Think you might play a CL drop out if you finish second but I have never cared to understand how this competition works tbh. In all honesty apart from Chelsea I have no idea who else of significance is in this competition. I expect us to reach the quarter finals at least regardless because most of the opposition is shite.
With Spurs to follow, I really hope no key players are being dragged away for this game.
The match has been moved to Kiev.
Hope those that have tickets get to go there, otherwise another one UEFA has pissed up the wall on.
It’s been moved to Kiev now, which should mean less travel. Still minus five but hopefully all this drama with Russia leads to the match being called off and we just get the points.
Ahhhh ok... furry muff.
Apparently the game is still in doubt despite being moved to Kiev.
Just scrap it and give us the 3 points please.
if we do have to play he has to send the reserve reserves only
No Özil then.
Nah, he's been turbo-dropped.
Danny John-Jules' son. :bow:
Cat. :bow:
Ramsey. :lol:
Slumming it now.
Apparently no one knows where the game is being played. Just call the fucking thing off.
I can't even play this one on FIFA, not that l have done the Bournemouth game yet.
I thought it was his nephew?
But still...

If the game doesn’t go ahead apparently Vorskla are disqualified and ALL of their games expunged from the competition. Meaning any points won by other teams are removed, which would still see us through as group winners, even if we lose our last game and Sporting won tonight.
Fuck all that, the game is still on.
Something to watch on TV later I guess.
Is it on BT sports?
Looking at that squad list.....I guess it would have been much the same even if we'd have beaten Sporting in the last game, so guess we can be fairly happy that we have a decent selection of players for the next two league games.
I'd play....
-------------Cech--------------
Lich----Med----Holding---Jenks
---------AMN------Guen---------
MHKI--------Ram-----Emile S-R
------------Nketiah--------------
Cech, Lichtsteiner, Jenkinson, Holding, Maitland-Niles, Guendouzi, Ramsey, Elneny, Willock, Nketiah, Smith-Rowe. Subs: Martinez, Mkhitaryan, Gilmour, Medley, Osei-Tutu, John-Jules, Saka.
Train cancelled. :lol:
Not going to see much more than forty minutes of this one.
Medley from Dave Gilmour on the bench. :bow:
GHELkinson really is playing at CB.
The new Flamini?
SMITH ROWE!!!
Dennis Smith Rowe-Kamp
Good play from Ramsey and Nketiah in the build-up.
Smith Rowe is the Europa League's finest ever player.
Smith Rowe is the GOAT
PELANTY!
Ramsey tripped.
RAMSEY!!
0-2.
Vorskla resorting to thuggery now.
Group winners. :bow:
That's about ten fouls in two minutes.
But this ref is actually booking them.
