Real Madrid (A) - Wed 19th Feb, 20:00 | CL | Pre-Match Thread

[WestGorton]

Oh and it's Wednesday.

 

[deano ou812]

Reffed us three times, all wins, including the 4 3 v real. Reffed them twice, that defeat v us and a win

I’d take 4-3 again then beat them in ET oh fuck it would be funny if we won on pens though..

 

[dronefromsector7G]

No chance that he plays tomorrow.

Who?

:-)

Erling might not be on the plane to Madrid despite his post match snack

 

[BlueMonkey79]

Not arsed. To little too late in this competition this season.

If it wasn't for the Feyenoord debacle and the Sporting collapse, we wouldn't be in this situation.

Real will spank us over there. 2 nil and we go out.

Oh well better being fit for Sunday then to beat the red scousers..

Bernardo to score the last pen, celebrate with a cup of tea and a scruffy coat?

Miserable ****

If he's not fit for Wednesday it's highly unlikely he'll make the dippers showdown.

I hope he makes a better attempt than his penalty against Madrid in the last shoot out with them

That’s why I said it, redemption for a City great

But arsed enough to read this and post that?
Who d'you think you're kidding?

I might be a clutching at straws but I reckon with the pressure being completely off and most people assuming the tie is done. This could really help us, just go out there with no fear and give it a good go . Strange what different mindsets can do. Say we was leading 1-0 we might just go in too cautious and that could be the downfall but surely Pep has to go for broke . We may have to ride our luck but we are capable of getting 2 or 3 goals , we just need to somehow snuff them out
This would be my team if Dias and Ake are fit.
Ederson
Stones , Dias, Ake, Gvardiol
Nico G Bernardo
Savio Phil Marmoush
Haaland

De Bruyne and Doku on for the last half hour

Great team.

[Sebi]

I get that but why then would we expect anything off him tomorrow?

Thought he was always brilliant against Real and one of the players, who stand out in important games. If we talk about Bernardo, let‘s talk about every player in this season, so that‘s not fair, because everybody struggle this season, but I‘m not angry with them, love them all and like Pep said, it‘s human and every big team has a bad season some time.

 

[Sebi]

This is where we go wrong with Bernardo as he runs around a lot we think he been one of our better players ,removing the blue tint glasses he's created nothing ,hardly scored and slowed the play down by going round in circles to the point I think we play quicker and better without him now
Which is sad because he's been an incredible player for us ..

I agree mate, I answered to another one above.

That penalty and Kovacics are forever in my mind.
Bernardo scored a cracker for Portugal only a short time later
