The great thing about this is, unless Linfield somehow get through and beat us, there's very little downside to losing here. Arguably the ECL groups could be more fun and more lucrative. 56 minutes ago, Tony Wonder said: Could've been a lot worse, but getting the Swiss Champions is still a tie we'll be firmly underdogs in. On this seasons form I would have Hearts as favourites. Lost their coach, top scorer and arguably their best midfielder, with the players leaving on Bosmans and their replacements looking decidedly shit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's encouraging, but we've lost Souttar and Simms without signing similar replacements (yet) and we'll be missing Baningime and possibly Kingsley too. Repeat the starting XI and performance from Saturday and I'm confident we'd get soundly humped. Hopefully we're planning to splash some more of that Europa cash before the deadline.

topcat(The most tip top) Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 these people are apparently booked to play Zurich’s stadium the day after the first leg so if Zurich beat Linfield we’ll be playing them an hour down the road at St Gallen near the Lichtenstein border 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now there is definitely nothing to fear from FCZ. They still have a few players who will be worth watching(Gnonto and Marchesano are always good for something and if Dzemaili is fit he will be the best player on the park) but they really do look nothing like the team that won the league quite easily last season. It wouldn’t be a surprise at this point if they struggle against Linfield. 20 minutes ago, topcat(The most tip top) said: these people are apparently booked to play Zurich’s stadium the day after the first leg so if Zurich beat Linfield we’ll be playing them an hour down the road at St Gallen near the Lichtenstein border Just pretend that Kybun is Easter Road and you’ll get a result no bother. I’d be grateful for the game being moved to be honest. Letzigrund is a fucking terrible place to watch football. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fucking freezing, but absolutely brilliant. I can still see the ball going through the keeper and up into the net from our spot up in the corner.

Linfield were unfortunate not to get a goal or two of their own, although Gnonto does look more than useful. I now look forward to celebrating a stuffy 0-0 away and then getting turned over 2-0 at home . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For all FCZ are clearly on another level from Linfield technically, they looked like conceding any time Linfield put it in the box. Had one of the few first half chances went in, I wouldn’t have been surprised if Linfield had ended up winning. Mostly I’m happy that Marchesano set up the opener and Gnonto scored the second. It keeps up the facade that I have half an idea of what I’m talking about football wise… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigie Jambo Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 If FCZ play like that, we'll absolutely splatter them We would have put 4 or 6 past Linfield there 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross. Posted August 7, 2022 Share Posted August 7, 2022 FCZ absolutely pumped again today, at home to Sion. Almost at the point that if Hearts don’t knock them out it will be embarrassing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TL;DR: we're loaded. getting a modest 4 points in the Conference league would pay out about the same as qualifying for the Europa league playing against tougher opposition and getting zero if you’re feeling more optimistic then you can substitute 9 points and 5 points and it still works as safety nets go we couldn’t ask for much better 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
