Match Thread | Real Madrid vs. Man City (18/02/25)

[jollylescott]

That was poor by Phil just then. A bad touch gave the ball away

 

[EdersonsSmiley]

When is the last time Ederson caught a shot? He spills everything usually into the danger area.

 

[heslops barnet]

It's actually really sad seeing gundo like this

Pep’s not seeing it unfortunately

 

[WestGorton]

Yep I’m a rag who lives in London. Foiled again, well done inspector numbnuts

No need to to be aggressive

 

[Bluemoon115]

Some absolute humongous fucking wet wipes on here tonight , absolute crayon munchers .
“ I want to beat them 4-0 and it’s just not fair” type of comments.
Grow a fucking pair of gonads you embarrassing cunts.

Pipe down you sausage.

We can't string two passes together and haven't had a shot. Folk are allowed to be annoyed with that.

 

[Vester]

So we need 3 goals to even stay in it and yet no subs lol bold strategy pep

If you think it looks bad now, imagine how it looks with the players considered even worse on the bench.

 

[MCFC1993]

Any sub we make won't matter, we literally don't have the team fit enough to beat them.

 

[melrose40yarder]

Ferdinad what a prick does Valverde remind u off Gerrard.
Gerrard not fit to lace Valverdes boots.

 

[Dax777]

Who do you want there?? Serious question!

Kova

 

[ninjamonkey]

what Ancelotti doing to Pep tactically is incredible.

limiting us to zero shots in 50 mins. wow.

Ancelotti didn't pick our formation. Pep has done more harm to himself with his awful decisions than anything madrid are doing.

 

[East Level 2]

Had zero expectations for this game, had no hope. Pretty much accepted all week it’d take something special to even have a chance of going through.

Yet still I find myself seething and unable to stomach this commentary team. TNT know exactly what they’re doing putting him on Madrid games. If I never hear Steve McManaman again I’ll die a happy man. Absolutely licks their arse and half their fans probably don’t even know who he is

I didn't think we had much chance of going through, but I thought we'd manage more than one shot in 54 minutes (BBC stats) seeing as we had to score two goals.
An Xg of 0.05 is bloody awful however they measure it.

 

[Blu1]

I feel Fookin ill watching city crumble thus season. All down to zero planning

 

[Damien10]

Gundo is loosing the ball every time he gets on it!

 

[Alan Harper's Tash]

Let’s be honest. Had we gone through, Atletico would have battered us anyway.

35 mins to go.

 

[paulsimpson]

Yep. This.

We've been dire for the majority of the season - we come from behind v. Leyton, take out Newcastle and people are surpised we are getting handled by a team who have pieces we simply do not possess.

It is also the formation and Haaland is a massive loss .

 

[Dr Jacoby]

Thank fuck I’m not paying for TNT.

 

[Chak19]

Foden, Savinho and Marmoush all central, what the fuck is this shit ?

 

[Mancityus]

Haaland is clearly injured, he won't be coming on, he travelled purely to keep the injury a secret. kdb isn't having an impact in this game, we can't get the ball into positions for him to be effective, he'll spend the entire half chasing shadows knackered himself out. And even if we could, he's got nothing to aim for ahead of him.

If it is a secret, it is not fooling anyone and if he cannot make a difference now then are we saving him for game against Wolves.

 

[mancityscot]

Usually our matches vs Madrid are hotly contested, but this is men and against boys. Toying with us.
