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

[LesBleuMiserable]

Rico why not put your head to clear the ball, soft ficker

 

[I'm Blue]

seriously? proud of the way they choked another big match?

That was at 2-2.
Still stands though, we played some nice football at times though our defence was always gonna struggle against pace.
Akanji going off changed the way we defended, or didn’t.

 

[Ezy]

im so sad

 

[Tb1981]

We know the issues
We haven’t sorted them
We deserve what we get

we haven’t got the players to play how pep wants
The quality is garbage compared to two years ago
too many poor players in this team and squad

 

[come-on-barney]

The gift that keeps on giving
Pep has had enough and Ederson will be getting his Marching orders because that was down right daft

Hopefully he gives up on his project as well !!

 

[Goro]

at least its not from 3-0 to 3-3

 

[Thaksins Love Child]

What league.....cl places!!!!

Yep

 

[colbee59]

Rico, not good enough, no strength in him, mid table player at best

 

[M Gaudino]

Are you insane . We played with 10 men with kdb on the pitch . It was hard to watch

2-1 up when he went off. have a look at post his substitution across the season it happens a lot. its potentially psychological because after that we dont attack

 

[lee one pen]

well it is what it is

Isn’t everything

 

[pbueno16]

That's what happens when you leave players on for too long and manage the final minutes poorly. No need for Ederson to try to play out from the back for the second and Kova should've just hoofed it for the third.

 

[Rory Bluelow]

The jammiest bastards that walked the earth

We committed hari-kari tbf.

 

[Briggs1969]

Leave it mate. He’s cost us tonight. The saves he made were routine. We need a top keeper in the summer.

Well said pal.

 

[Chak19]

Really looking forward to 90 mins of those cnuts rolling about on the floor next week

I'm more looking forward to how many keystone cop moments we'll see from our players next week mate, like Ederson punching it into his own net or Gvardiol scoring a bicycle kick own goal.

 

[noseve]

How is it Peps fault though??

Unlucky with injuries tonight, but again (in fact time and time again) - substitutions to protect, when more attacking subs might be a better form of defence? There has been a pattern, don't you think?

 

[Zenmanc]

Totally down to Pep and his subs

Nah, its totally down to a few players making really horrible decisions

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

How many more players do we need

 

[Damien10]

I am sick of Pep making the same mistakes.

This. Average players bought lately

At this point, I would like to see Khusanov, Nico and Omar for the second leg starting 11. No point not playing them
