Match Thread | Man City vs. Real Madrid (11/02/25)

[Blue_Lightsaber]

Seriously getting tired of Ref playing like Prime Casemiro.

 

[GornikDaze]

Can't see us keeping a clean sheet here.

On the positive side I can see us scoring again

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

How’s the thread?
Fucking mint this by us. Gvardiol has been excellent

 

[Blue Abroad]

Reading the last four or five pages you’d think we were 3-nil down going in to the dressing room!

 

[super_city_si]

Phew. Best we’ve played in ages. Still wide opme but we’re together and having a proper bakc 4 makes all the difference

 

[pbueno16]

Akanji isnt looking fit. I think he may have a tweak

Grabbed his groin after getting the block against Vini a little bit ago

 

[Dr Jacoby]

I’d bring Kovacic on for De Bruyne and possibly Khusanov for Akanji if he’s injured.

 

[Mattyc55]

Kev is killing us in possession and foden just shows no interest whatsoever off the ball

 

[TFC]

Get akanji off, obvs struggling. Sort it at the half blues, we are better than that last 10 mins.

 

[jamesha]

Well done blues - great first half - more of the same please.

 

[chris85mcfc]

Kev very poor, just trying anything speculative to make up for his overall performance

Foden really needs to toughen up, could do with having a look at Savinho and how he doesn't allow himself to get pushed about

Other than that, think we've played well but we're really struggling to get up the pitch without Jack

Would take the 1-0 now, but think 2nd half will be much of the same, let's hope we get another chance

 

[Gaylord du Bois]

Get Kevin off now, we are playing with 10 men.

For who ? I think they'd be happier if he wasn't on the pitch than we would.

 

[Djibrilshairdo]

Mbappe is the Gallic Rashford

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

Akanji looks like he's injured his groin.

****Mason Mount licks his lips*****

 

[youngbob]

Ederson
Khusanov, Dias, Ake, Gvardiol
Stones, Kovacic, Foden
Marmoush, Savinho
Haaland

Would like to see this tbh.

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Phil there, 10n seconds until HT and chickens out of a tackle in their half.

 

[samuelyeboah]

seems like pep had a bit more of an idea about the lineup than the posters of Bluemoon

 

[Blu1]

Foden has been crap the guy is brain dead defensively.

I really would sun him off get Mahmoush on

 

[TinFoilHat]

Absolute fucking warriors that first half.

 

[M Gaudino]

Foden's got to come inside. Stick De Bruyne on the wing or bring Gonzalez on but we need more legs.

no chance gonzaelez is coming on against this lot after 5 mins experience with his team
