I was in Lviv NEXT day after Lviv Arena opening (had to go there for a business trip)!!! So, I didn t visit it!! About pics - yeah, these girls do it regularly. People get used to their "protests"-activity already! About football: Dynamo had VERY tough game in Simferopol vs Tavria. 0-0 and 2 red cards for Milevskiy & Yarmolenko (both - well deserved: too much talking!). But we still stay 1st in Ukrainian League after the first half of the season! 1 point ahead of Shakhtar & 2 points ahead of Metalist! P.S. Have a good game in Tel-Aviv!

Congratulations, Stokies!! Really glad for you, guys! VERY poor game from Dynamo in Turkey. 0-1 & it s well deserved. Not sure we deserve to go further if we play like this.

Yeah! If we play like yesterday vs Besiktas - we don t deserve to win at the Brit.
What is good - we still have chances! 2 wins = qualification. But! I repeat: with such game Dynamo has little chances at the moment. No passion, no team-play, no desire to play 90 minutes, no "Dynamo"-spirit! Ahhh... We want OUR Dynamo back!

Not even that - Playing 4-4-1-1? Aliyev? Correa? Milevskiy? Take Garmash off then put Ninkovich on? Then take an age to put Ideye on. Not good enough.
Terrible. We probably blew it last night, there's no way Besiktas will slip up against Maccabi.
Thanks to that result Stoke will need a point to get through - we could have done with Stoke already qualified and resting players for when we play next.

It is like a play-off for Dynamo in Stoke now! Win or we are 99% out. 2 wins (at Brit & vs Maccabi) - 100% through.
I like it!
If they wanna go further in Europe they have to show their best. If they will not - what for to go further?

so do I (want Dynamo to win at Brit!) I didn t expect this situation after the draw! & I certainly didn t want it after Kyiv game!! (cause I wish we BOTH go further!) So! Let the best teams go further! &, sure, I wish these 2 best teams will be Dynamo & Stoke!!!

Metalist Kharkiv - Dynamo Kyiv 1-2. Great result in Kharkiv! Metalist looks confident now & this victory is very important. Though our game is far from the best.
What s with Stoke??? Come on, guys!!!

Too many games for our hard-working style of play Den. Plus we're terrible away from Stoke anyway apart from when we play in the Europa League against slower teams. I think we'll draw at home against you and then lose away to Besiktas. So we'll have 11 points, Besiktas 12 and Kiev 9.

Post by denfcdk on Nov 7, 2011 18:38:27 GMT
I don t like this plan, Pricey! You try not to loose in Turkey! A draw there looks quite possible! About our match at the Brit - don t know how Dynamo gonna play! Any result (W, D, L) is possible!

A lot depends on how we do vs QPR and Blackburn in the weeks before we play Kiev. If we get 4-6 points from those two games we will be back on some kind of form and I'd say it's unlikely you'll beat us. But if we continue to play as badly as we have been you could sneak a win and then the last game of the group would be really exciting. Besiktas are the one team we've played so far that I can see us having difficulty getting a win at because they move the ball quickly and have a lot of technically good midfielders. We might even play our strongest available team depending on results in the league and how Pulis wants to go. Even then I can see us losing though. Besiktas are a good team. We've played 5-4-1 away at both you lot and Maccabi Tel Aviv and I'm not sure that change of system from our normal 4-4-2 will work at Besiktas. I'll stick to my prediction. Good luck though!

I didn t find Besiktas very strong team. Though, as well as current Dynamo. I think we are all close in level. So - it s interesting group!! & I still want DK & SC to qualify!

About money - I put some on Maccabi yesterday in Israel League...

I'll be looking out for you Den on Friday night at the new stadium!! Hope it's a great night for all the Ukraine fans, I looked in a local paper (Hamburg) and saw it's on at the the "Valeri Lobanovsky" that's not right is it? Thought it was gonna be the new Stadium. Anyway, either way, enjoy yourself, and have a beer or two for me Cheers Mate Harry

Hello, guys! WHAT an opening GAME at the Olympic Stadium in Kyiv!! Ukraine-Germany 3-3!!! I didn t expect us to play this well (lots of injured players & Germany is very strong team no doubt & they brought the main squad). Ukraine was 2-0 ahead, then 3-1 & finally 3-3. What is funny! It was the same scenario as in 1999 Champions League semi-final Dynamo Kyiv - Bayern Munchen in Kyiv: 2-0, 3-1 & 3-3!!! I was watching the game from my 2nd row seat & thinking about that semi-final!! Lots of Germans at the game. P.S. Harry (1863)!! You live in Hamburg, yeah? I have a Hamburger S.V. scarf now!! Swapped after the match with German supporter for Dynamo scarf!

Yes! It s serious! I think 99% that the match is to be held there! It is the decision of FC Dynamo administration.

5 factors:
1. Rival (no offence, but I don t expect too many people against Maccabi). That s true, though my opinion - we should support Dynamo, no matter we play Barcelona or Maccabi! & for me Maccabi is interesting rival!
2. Whether. In December the temperature can be low! Less people visit the stadium.
3. Tournament. Euro-Cups are very popular, though it depends on the stage & rival (again). Group stage is not play-off!
4. Situation in group. If Dynamo wins at the Brit OR still has chance to qualify - more people should come, sure!
5. Old-New Stadium. Yeah! It s a factor of attraction!
TOTAL: I think it can be about 25.000! (stadium capacity ~ 69000).

I think I will not watch England-Spain (have to work today). I know that a lot of Stokies follow club more than National team!
Don t know - Spain is a good team! But I can tell the same about Germany & we were SO close to win the game yesterday! Ahh!.. Anyway, such a good game!
And it is SO nice to get back to your home-stadium where Dynamo & Ukraine got their greatest victories!!

Ohh!! I see!! Yeah, mate! I have lots of warm memories about our old Olympic Stadium (before reconstruction). All these amazing Champions League games, other EuroCups games, National team... Incl. Ukraine-Russia 3-2 (our main rivals) - one of the greatest games for us there!
