So this is what we have been waiting for. No one thought we would be here but we are. Kadikoy is the venue, and im sure it will be rocking on Wednesday night. We come off of a derby win over Besiktas in Inonu while Chelsea beat Middlesbrough 1-0 but i heard it was very lucky. Maldonado got a much needed 90 mins considering he will probably start this one. The only problems are that Roberto Carlos still hasn't played in a match since his injury but I'm sure he will be raring to go. Also it's expected that Onder will start in place of Gokhan. So Deivid will need to step up his game because Gokhan provides a lot more support to the right side.

I think we can win this one at home. Hopefully keep a clean sheet as an away goal would be terrible. The whole Republic of Fenerbahce is waiting for this game...so lets get it on! :fero:

i think he will. He has been training with the squad since last week but didnt play over the weekend, maybe as a precaution. But if he's training im sure he will play

i'm lucky i only have the regular cable, but my friend has satelite so im going to his house to watch it live on deportes. of course ill be watching it will all my friends who are Fener haters (jealous)

 

[MetinK5]

What about the midwest? Do you know if it comes on live on Deportes in the midwest? I'll be watching the match with my Turkish comrad

no idea with the midwest sorry man. i just know east coast. check espn.com/tvlistings it has everything there. my mexican friend will be with me so he can translate i only know basic spanish

 

[MetinK5]

Can't wait to see the stadium and the preceedings before kickoff. and the CL anthem, should be some riveting stuff

you and me both

 

[MetinK5]

good to see him giving back to the club

 

[MetinK5]

is that certain, i thought Zico would make the RC decision closer to game time

 

[MetinK5]

Hey Footy...what happened to Shevcenko with a repeat against us like you said? I heard he didn't even make the trip

 

[MetinK5]

agreed that is a disaster. but hey hopefully he will be ok for the return leg, his experience could be vital. im sure Vederson will put out the effort of his life to make up for Carlos im not that worried.

 

[MetinK5]

Here we are again, match day. Nerves are starting to kick in...

I have a strange feeling about this game, and it's not a good one.

me to man. i mean i keep thinking...shit what if we don't win the first leg, and then another part of me is like "i'm just glad we made it this far, im proud of this team." but obviously now that we made it I want to win the whole damn thing

 

[MetinK5]

i just got back from my friends house...holy crap i was flippin out. everyone there doubted fener...fener will lose 4-0, blah blah. oh man did they shut up i lost my voice my yelling so much. i am so proud right now...im speechless

 

[MetinK5]

i'll tell you what...i think more people are admiring this team after every game. the spirit they show, always fighting never giving up. I converted a few of my friends today. At the end of the game, they said "you know what, i'm not gonna lie Fener is a good team and they play some good ball and score some great goals". They even said they will support them in europe from now on. hey, it's a start
