Hate to say "I told you so!" but, at 6.19 p.m. in the pre-match thread, I posted:-

"Too many fanny wipes here today. We're the world champions. They might have the odd threat, but, we're in good form; it's our ball, and we'll be keeping it for the most part! Though we struggle to keep clean sheets, I expect a comfortable win, as 'last 16' is their level.
Imho, it'll be like mid-table against the top of the league, so, I'm going 3-1 for City."

If anyone wants tips for the lottery tomorrow.....

I said this at 6:05:

Played them 4 times, won 2 and drawn twice at their place. C'mon City, keep the form going, 6 games and scored 3 in each of them. 3-1 maybe?

Could have been more, maybe should have been more. But great result, sets us up nicely.
First 20 minutes were excellent. If we can largely stick with that shape and those players for the rest of the season, I think we’ll win the lot.

That first 20 minutes was the best we’ve played since Madrid at home last season
 
A consummate performance that. Eddie’s brain fart aside. I think we will take a two goal head start at our place in what is now a sudden death game in home leg. Third goal was so important.
 
We dominated them and should have scored a few more but the 3rd goal should be enough to rest a few in between the rags and dipper games.
They were a dirty set of cunts and ref was very weak.
Ginger Kev and Phil were outstanding..Grealish was really good and it's a gutter that he went off injured.
Felt sorry for Eddie..not often he miskicks and when a keeper does it it's usually a goal.
Watched it on CBS and at half time they showed the Copenhagen goal and Richards was pissing himself that they scored..
 
The Boys in Blue didn’t give in. They fought to the end. Thank you City, thank you lads, thank you fans.
You showed ‘em, you showed ‘em all. Especially the dirty mermaids, you’d think with being near the water they’d manage to keep clean!!
Especially the stupid, biased, squeaky squirrels in the media. (Ha ha that showed ya, didn’t it?)
Especially the Specsavers needing, stupid fools pretending to be officials who try to grind us down! Take that you barnacles. Don’t you know who we are you silly, deluded bits of paper from the toilets! We are:
MANCHESTER CITY THE BEST TEAM IN THE LAND AND ALL THE WORLD!!



Looks as if I might not be the only one voting for a certain player tonight!! ;-) :-)

I thought that was there or thereabouts our best performance this season. I wish Grealish had stayed on as that looks like our best 11 and we purred for 15 or 20 minutes and I wondered if the tie could be over before the second half. Until...another silly fucking goals to be giving away. Frustrating. I'm glad we got the third goal as it gives us some breathing room to come back to Manchester, not quite over just yet but if we stay professional and humble then we should be fine. All the signs are we are hitting some form with gears to go up still.
 
I think people are being too hard on the new players. I thought Doku played well. There was a lot of talk about losing the ball, but He lost possession 8 times - which was similar to Phil and Bernardo who had 12/14. And I think he was better positioned to succeed when there was less rotation (and thus more positional stability) around him. And Nunes was a nice spark at the end. Even though they may not be in everyone’s favorite/beat XI, they’re important for the team.
