He'd be booked in the warm up and sent off in the first five minutes.Makes me laugh the hatred for Rudiger on here I wish we had a player like that

Oddly enough im more involved in the footy than what commentators bang on about so they barely register.omg that voice click.....................................
There's also a 'sound settings' option on my telly (probably on yours too) that lets me tone down the vocals and bring up the crowd noise which is pretty useful. As long as its not a scouse accent i can live with it.

I was surprised we weren’t in for him when he left Chelsea on a free transfer.Makes me laugh the hatred for Rudiger on here I wish we had a player like that

It was the inconsistency in using his cards. I thought Foden's was probably deserved as there was no attempt to play the ball and it exceeded the 'careless' criterion. But there were a number of similar tackles by Madrid players that merited cards that weren't given. Even the commentators were surprised by his reluctance to get his card out for some of the Madrid fouls.What did the Referee do wrong?
Rudiger second yellow maybe but what else, he could have ignored our penalty and looked at 2 incidents in our first goal.
There were at least two by Rudiger that should have been yellow, including an off-the-ball incident involving Cherie, and other players committing multiple fouls that weren't carded. There was a tackle on Doku late on that was at least as bad as Foden's that wasn't carded yet O'Reilly was booked for something relatively innocuous. That's what the bent **** did wrong and if you couldn't see it then I'd recommend a trip to your nearest Specsavers.

I've read this four times this season, at least. Well done to him.
But against Real Madrid away, for a non-right back facing 2 of the best wingers in world football that must be his best game at full back in a City shirt.
I think for the first 30 minutes, City was all over the place and got caught out a few times down the middle, We were wide open at times after silly play by giving the ball away (Silva) for their first goal ? Why was he so deep upfield and could not get back to help
But after that, City recovered and started to feel that we could hurt them and we did, City's fitness is getting better and better and maybe it was match fitness we lacked rather than players own fitness, Ok we rode our luck a little bit in the 2nd half but we looked so much better as a unit.
The Referee ?
I don't get why he's booking Foden for his first foul, then letting Madrid players kick the shit out of Doku and Cherki
Rüdiger should have had a red card for the haaland pen because he stopped him from having a goal-scoring chance from the six yard box, but then goes on the stay on the field to foul again and again, when fouling Savinho it's the easiest 2nd yellow and red card to give, but he smiles at the ref and at our players

Our old teams? 2 goals up after 90 minutes and getting knocked out?Hmmmmm
I’ll take 1-2 any day.
But it wasn’t a quality game.
Madrid were awful. We were just ok. Our old teams would have won that by 4 or 5.
As for last night, I cannot remember Courtois EVER making 6 saves against any of our old teams.
We had 8 shots on target last night, same as we had in the 4-0 game.
That team, with a fully fit Rodri in for Bernado, would give any team left in this competition a proper game.

Yes and there was another incident in the second half where Cherki made a fool of him and after Cherki had played the ball, Rudiger deliberately barged into him. I'll be charitable and assume the ref didn't see it, but it was a clear yellow.Letter of the law and Rudiger should have been off for the penalty!

Can’t believe Bernado didn’t get a yellow for his late tackle on Cherki…Yes and there was another incident in the second half where Cherki made a fool of him and after Cherki had played the ball, Rudiger deliberately barged into him.

The letter AND spirit of the law. The ball was on a plate for Haaland. An almost certain goal, never mind a goal scoring opportunity.Letter of the law and Rudiger should have been off for the penalty!

Because his bonus had gone up in smoke…A good win considering we were against 12.
That ref was a mega mega thundercunt. I’d be asking serious questions if I was City management! He looked gutted at the final whistle!
Buzzing to see us dig deep and look comfortable in a stadium like that. Defence stood tall and looked really solid.
Doku and Nunes immense.

Yeah all fine, if that's what I actually did, which I very clearly didn't. So when Pep decided against starting Rodri or Fernandinho in our first CL final, there were thousands upon thousands of comments lamenting that decision, don't think I've ever seen anybody offer anything resembling a defence of that catastrophic decision, in your mind, does pretty much every single city fan think they know more about football than Pep? We can't win a game of football without doing everything perfectly?You can critique all you like but I reserve the right to mock some random sat on a sofa who thinks he knows more about football than Pep Guardiola. Oh and we won so I'd say he set us up perfectly.
