@RodneyMarsh10 And finally….

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@RodneyMarsh10 And another one.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@RodneyMarsh10 hi there. Photo I found while tidying up my old Granada TV stuff.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@eshiers @City_Xtra @spillaartois One of those games, even 20 years on you never forget. The fantastic @jimbeglin alongside me.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@Kippaxman1 Thanks James. Appreciate you saying so. 👍

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

Pep always knows….. he told Julian Alvarez who would win the trophy….

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

Michael Brown, who is on commentary duty with me tonight.

[Thegingerwig @thegingerwig]

City and Leeds - played for both?

I'll start with David White

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

Seeing @aguerosergiokun giving Messi his man of match award yesterday, reminded me that the City legend could well have been playing his second World Cup final this weekend. Stunning career cut short. This could have been a fitting finale.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

£14m! That was an amazing piece of business by City. Alvarez must now be worth 10 times that!

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

Fair play to the Dutch. That’s one of the gutsiest free kicks I’ve ever seen. If that had gone wrong imagine the grief. But it didn’t. Whatever happens in extra time, that was exceptional.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@ManCity I was in my first year of work at Granada and this was one of the first matches I ever worked on. (Martin Tyler commentating). Pre match I had a £1 bet with the guest studio pundit, the legendary Frank Worthington that City would win - he thought Huddersfield would! He paid up!

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@dkcoach1 Thank you David. When you’ve drama like that you just go with it. Incredible.

[David Edwards-Kiely @dkcoach1]

@alistairmann01 best commentator around ! Simply fantastic

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

So for the first time I can ever recall PSG have finished 2nd in their group on the basis of the number of goals scored away from home. Benfica scored more on their travels so are top! The last 16 draw will be even more fascinating now.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

@GwynneMP @GwynneCllr So very sorry to hear this. Your Dad was one of the most warm, genuine and engaging people I’ve ever met. A great broadcaster too,whose pure joy for what he did, was evident in every commentary. He will be missed.

[Alistair Mann @alistairmann01]

The lengths people go to, to avoid doing co commentary! There’s a microphone waiting for you in between international breaks. Best of luck. I know you’ll be a success.

[Andy Morrison @AndyMorri5on]

Looking forward to this incredible opportunity to Manage the Sri lanken national team.
Keith and I Fly out on Saturday to begin this new chapter in our life’s .
