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

[ChicagoBlue]

They do it when it matters , they are the best side I've seen us play this season even tho Arsenal beat us 5-1 , it was never a 5-1 game we imploded at the end, Real Madrid have been brilliant from start to finish

SIZE, SPEED, STRENGTH.

First to everything, win second balls, don’t shirk a challenge, break like lightning, love the ball in behind, put their chances on target.

Kova has looked decent since he came on.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

What’s with all the slips when we’re in their attacking third?

 

[Bluemoonie92]

Someone wind the refs watch forward

 

[Norbert D]

Lol.

Grow up and learn to control your emotions you man baby.

It’s about opinions, you don’t like it then don’t come on the match thread.

 

[hertsblue]

That’s definitely a bonus not being in that. Imagine even more games against the likes of FC Carrier Bag on a Thursday night, getting beat there and getting three more injuries?

And for the 1st time ever when a PL team plays in this cup, money mentions every tie

 

[Beanhead]

Results and comical defending aside.. we have become Europes most boring elite team. Dull as all hell.. I wouldn’t watch us if I weren’t a blue.

 

[mcfcpride]

We owe Ancelotti a good one.

If he didn’t take the steam off, we could’ve conceded 6.

 

[vanchi]

That Ahsan lad from the 93.20 Podcast said a week or so ago that Phil has been playing "really really well"....don't laugh....

that’s a thing among some city content creators atm, foden is having a really good season and evil foreign fans are too blind, or erm evil to see/admit it. oh well

 

[EL APACHE TEVEZ]

I knew we would have a shit season, Players have not rested fatigue set in,hopefully we can get a bit of a rest from May to June before that silly tournament

 

[flb]

When do we ask serious questions about this team?

Not trolling but more a realisation that we are not very good bar the odd game.

something is not right.

Injures, exhaustion….

What needs to happen to acknowledge the current situation?

This entire squad has played far too much games for 3-4 seasons , they’re mentally shot , fucking waste of time international matches on top , club world trophy , injuries , and the feeling of expectation, that they have to keep winning serial trophies season after season. The talent is still there , but fuck me , has everyone just fucking airbrushed what this team has done recently?
I’ll tell you something mate , there are going to be fucking shit loads of fans on here , who are going to be in for an almighty shock when Pep leaves.
And the way the entitlement on here is going , with some of the absolute fucking plebs who post on this forum , if we do go a few seasons without winning the league they’re going to be constantly shitting their knickers twice a week.
Maybe just last look forward to next season, this team is exhausted , like a fucking pit pony who just can’t do it anymore.

 

[jollylescott]

The feel good vibes from the Newcastle game have evaporated. We've somehow got to pull out socks up for the dippers.

 

[jjctid]

The players aren't doing themselves any favours either. Especially with the opening goal

I genuinely think they thought they were beat before a ball was kicked.

 

[super_city_si]

Foden was abysmal but hiw and why is he defending on the left edge of our area? Thats systemic.

 

[bluemonkey71]

Whoever the twat is on sky sports scores commentary is he’s willing more goals in for Madrid constantly. Must be a rag

 

[Petethemancinleeds]

As fans forums go this one is supportive as Trump on a walkabout in Kiev, the team is knackered and we , Pep are rebuilding whilst still potentially finishing 4th and winning an FA cup. Its Liverpools league and Madrids cup while we are partially closed for repairs.

 

[MCFC1993]

Mcatees done alright tbf.

 

[The Norfolk Blue]

They do it when it matters , they are the best side I've seen us play this season even tho Arsenal beat us 5-1 , it was never a 5-1 game we imploded at the end, Real Madrid have been brilliant from start to finish

They have tonight, men against boys.

 

[chesterbells]

Oh grow up. Another gatekeeper. Utter prick.

Happy we are shit as it means we get rid of fans who dare to moan.

Youre worse than the tourists

Harsh but

 

[stan bowles]

Jokes on Gonzalez cuz Khusanov probably can’t understand a word he’s saying.

I think he got the message alright.
