Club Brugge (H) - CL - Post-Match Thread

Really enjoyed tonight.

Zero negatives as it was a champions league game, it’s not supposed to be easy!

Bernardo was amazing when he dribbles and goes past players he reminds me of messi just without his finish.

nice confidence boost for raz, Jesus and mahrez. I honestly think mahrez is our best finisher at city. Pep should try him in that false 9 role as he would score a load leading the front line.

I'd recommend watching this post match press conference from Pep.

Pep: 'Now it is time to think about United'

Pep Guardiola says now the Brugge game is over, the focus turns to the Manchester derby.

He's in an incredibly bullish mood.

I looked up at the screen at one point and could see the white seats that spell out CITY around ESL1 where I sit. From wheee I was sat could also see chunks of seats in SSL3 CBL3 and FSL1.

Good crowd, I reckon about 47,000 (which would have been a full 2003-2015 Etihad) but it won’t be the attendance that’s given. But just don’t get why our planner says there were so few tickets left when I could clearly see a good number of seats.

Not a big deal, just something that bugs me. Do City hold them back? Give them to ticket sites that don’t get sold?

Why are people saying this? It was full.

In fact my only blue moan tonight is that I will never again get drawn in to buy one of the appalling vegan sub rolls. I do like my veggie food, but I’ll be back on the chicken balti pies at the next available opportunity!

thats what the lad in front of us must of bought lol
he said ive bought it im eating it looked awful
 
Thought Brugge weren’t a bad side and were a little unlucky not to get ahead in the first half. We were much better after the break and thoroughly deserved the win overall. Bernardo excellent as usual. First name on the team sheet for a top game at the moment.

They are no-shows. My dad and his mate decided not to come at the last minute because it was cold and they are nearly 80. I was a whisker away from turning back on the m62 because there was a 15 mile tailback.

It sold out, but it wasn’t full and that the attendance won’t have been what it says it was. Back of CBL3 and SSL3 had chunks of empty seats, the corporate areas were sparse in some areas, the 2-3 seats dotted about in most other blocks around ESL1 and FSL1, plus the away end only being ⅔ full.

I reckon it was easily below 50,000 actually in the ground.
