Oh my word - just looked at the player ratings across multiple sites, you'd think we'd lost the bloody game.

(I strongly suggest City supporters don't look at the CBS Sports Soccer ratings - clearly written by someone who is blind, didn't watch the game or patently has no idea about the game)
 
Is it just old people who still watch BBC news every morning?
Give over, I gave the BBC live feed & website a total swerve a year ago (maybe 2 now) as Simple Sally & Nitwit Naga were just making me angry, I even had the BBC news website as my homepage at the time. I just watch Sky news & use their website, ITV is no better than the BBC.
 
Really do not get this ‘match of two halves?’
Yes ,PSG slightly win the first half ,got the goal and then maybe f
Had a couple of half chances ,but no more than City .mbappe never had a shot in 99 mins!
City had more possession and passes at half time
What did people expect!we was away to PSG i the semi final of the champions league!
They was always going to be a time when then had a purple patch and we would suffer !

second half -no contest !

brilliant performance by every player and pep
Don't agree with that. I though PSG dominated us for the first 35 minutes or so - played through us, quick, accurate, we didn't get near them at times. We got a bit more control towards the end of that half, and then completely dominated the second, obvs. But a match of two halves seems appropriate enough.
 
I don’t understand why anyone gives a fuck? Half you lot turning into the scousers on the hunt for anything to be offended by.
Fuck the bbc fuck Twitter & fuck talksport.
grown men absolute crying to sleep last night at the thought of poor old city getting through to the final of the European cup, I love the bitterness we should drink it in!
How can we "drink their bitterness in" if we dont hunt for evidence of it in the first place? ;)
 
People are on here 5 mins after a unbelievable win whinging about the media and so they must be looking for it or using outlets everyone knows are wankers.
I watched the game, I though BT comms were good. Glad it wasn’t mcmanananananann myself. I then watched the interviews and pundits afterwords all glowing. I then took myself to bed at 11pm and had 20 mins on blue moon again all buzzing. Then had my cornflakes this morning while watching SSN and flicking blue moon, I’ve then took my 20mins drive to work with talksport on and again they were all purring at our performance. The only blot or negative was when I viewed this thread and I’m thinking where they looking to get offended when we have just put one foot in the final, surely we all know not to go on Twitter or the bbc forum to seek intellectual feedback from ex bitter red journalists or pundits or media outlets who are in it to make money and money doesn’t come from blowing smoke up our arses.
It's the nature of the beast mate. Confirmation bias. If you believe the world is against you you'll find evidence somewhere. Some are actively seeking it - notice the same names right through the thread. Like you, i've seen nothing but praise from all quarters for our performance. I saw very few comments on here about the lovely "history" piece BT Sport did at the beginning of the program, or Joe Hart calling us a "special club" several times, or Jermaine Jenas calling out the referee. When they do things like that on Liverpool the same people are up in arms, calling at a "Dipper Love In".

We get some bad press from people who will never like us because of who we are. But right now on this wonderful morning it's lost in a sea of universal praise. Drink it in...
 
I wonder how many repeats of a Mo Salah advert will be shown during the RAGS game tonight?

Enthralling game last night, in stark contrast to the Tommy Toucans snoozefest the media were joyous over the night before.
 
Blimey just turned onto Talksport (I know) and after about a minute of listening "City are built to win the Champions league and it's a shambles they haven't won it yet'.. off.. It was Simon Jordan of course. What a hater of us he is.
Just seen in the above post that he was praising us. Guess I should have turned in earlier then. You can understand me switching off at that point as he's usually a knob about us.
 
and you are on whinging about people whinging?
Perhaps
You can't make it up can you.

I don't think many people were complaining about BT sport from yesterday myself, I seen plenty of posts saying it made a change to see them select 3 City pundits, I'll add Hargreaves grudgingly and for the first time in a long time I heard the match commentators call it as it was, ie very dodgy reffing.

Impartial is all I want, I don't want Tyler with his dogs just died tone when we score and shrill shrieking when the opposition have a shot.

Somebody posted his match commentary from the Liverpool game, think it was the 3-2 to them one after we had clawed it back to 2-2, look for it, listen too it and then come back and say he isn't a biased old ****.

Sterliiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnggggggggggggggggggggggggggg 1-0 liverpool

Oh City have scored.

This is what pisses people off, shit like that over and over again, we had better commentary when we were shit, people just want a fair representation of the match be it in the papers or in the pre and post-match segments and most of all during a live game.

We do not need to hear that our bench cost 500bn or Walker passes it to 65m Rodri, who slips it to KDB who cost 55m you know, the biggest squad in football.

No, it is 25 fucking men the same as everybody else.

But really does it matter that they are on here moaning about it?

Don't come on this thread if you don't like it, as I said earlier it is a thread designed for that job, mainly due to the fact that praise is few and far between.
Perhaps we can pair him off with another who loves to criticise City fans. They can both bugger off to RAWK or Red Cafe and compare notes with their posters and do it theeeeiiirr waaaayyy.
