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

[Double R]

Knew I should have given this dead rubber match a swerve.

 

[.db.]

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

It’s partly down to that, but not all.

Injuries to the extent we’ve had this season has been unprecedented. We had almost no injuries at all in the treble season, it’s been the other end of the scale this season.

Plus it’s also down to the fatigue and come down after the efforts to win:
Premier League, EFL Cup
Premier League, FA Cup, EFL Cup, Community Shield
EFL Cup, Community Shield
Premier League, EFL Cup
Premier League
Champions League, Premier League, FA Cup
Premier League, UEFA Super Cup, FIFA World Club Cup
Community Shield

No English club has ever won that much in such a short space of time. It will have taken an incredible amount of effort to achieve all that, especially winning that record fourth PL in a row last season.

 

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

thats Mbappe for you. world class makes our defence look League Two level.

He rises to the occasion every single time. Big Erl needs to do more of that to be considered a true challenger for the Ballon D'or

 

[mancity2012_eamo]

That guy Mbappe looks decent.
We should put a bid in this summer.

Does he track back?

 

[wattle]

Right lads, I don’t want to be accused of being negative but it’s looking like we might not qualify for the next round. Perhaps time to bring off key players for the dipper game?

Are there any on?

 

[wolviedinho]

Every single big game this season we have been outplayed and outfought.

Pep badly off it this season as in previous seasons this would not be acceptable.

 

[Newmoston1212]

Foden has turned into Rashford..

 

[01cravend]

You're giving this group of players too much credit.

There isn't an XI he could have named to win this match.

You're giving this Real Madrid side too much credit. Very very beatable

 

[Robinho's Subbuteo]

Don’t know why people are getting so annoyed. Of course we’re playing shite but we were never winning this thing this year.

Better to focus on getting back in next season with a refreshed team.

 

[city saint]

I’m comfort eating cheese on crumpets fuck it got to have some pleasure

 

[Chak19]

I think Pep is going to give Bernie and Gundo 90 minutes just to troll us.

 

[TShed]

Should be nowhere near the team. Embarrassingly bad all season.

Attitude as bad as Rashford was at the rags something not right got all the traits of a Stevie Ireland about him
Could get 100m possibly well worth passing him on

 

[RiversideBlue]

There is a fairly good chance, and some won't like this, that we are watching Pep's final Champions League game as a manager.

Why? Are they changing the name of the competition next year?

 

[Kamaro011]

Get this season over and see what he does when we sign a few more and have fully rebuilt the team.

He is twat, already giving up the manager who have given us so much after only just one bad season.

 

[B\connellblue]

But why? What has happened to Foden to make him drop of so much?

Fuck knows but hes awful and dare I say not trying a leg out there.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Pathetic wasnt it

To be fair, I'm surprised he wasn't still near the halfway line, he usually is.

 

[eyalluvitt]

We’re miles off, it’s just embarrassing.

Pep and these players need to have a long hard look at themselves tonight. A utterly shameful surrender

 

[BlueRhubarb]

Gotta feel for the fans who travelled

They’ve got an hour to wait after the final whistle until they are let out if previous Madrid games are anything to go by as well lol.

 

[Blu1]

Well Pep gave in at half time with no changes!

Weird that

Think he’s happy he’s out to be honest. Just hope we get 3 points on Sunday

 

[heslops barnet]

To think I called @Indaparkside a Lucky, Lucky Bastard because he was out there...
I pity him, now

Bars stay open late, he’ll be alright
