Was fearing the worse when we went one down with the ref's bias laid bare from Raheem's booking. Feared we wouldn't get ourselves together and back into the game against such a prolific opponent. The next 10-15 minutes we were a little shocked but we got our act together, realised there was...

Was annoyed at the snipes from Mills last night from an ex-City player. I watched he Arse vs Munich game on Tuesday and the co-commentator (no idea who it was) could not stop singing praises for Arsenal the entire game. Although he did say Boateng was the best defender in world football which...

I just hope this match was the one where all this season's bad ref/linesman decisions against us came at once.

Manga was excellent. Saw Joe give a pep talk to Manga just before kick-off. Think he was telling him to keep calm cool and ignore Costa's antics in the game. Also loved the part at half time when the players were heading to the tunnel and Costa was in a strop, Manga ran over to Ferna and put...

If he scores against the dippers, I'm expecting something like this from them.

Couldn't watch the game so listened on BBC Radio Manchester. At the end of the match Fred Eyre said something about Hart taking Mangala over to the City supporters end. What happened there?

This. Was watching Chinese TV series and the characters were in a bar that showed a football game on the big screen and guess who was shown...us. We are receiving much greater recognition and publicity since the Aguero goal and the good work Sun Jihai and the team have done there.

I do feel that EM and MDM play better with each other as a pairing. EM looks calmer and controlled alongside MDM. But with Vinny, he looks nervous. It could be down to the style MDM and Vinny communicate. Vinny needs to calm down and be more composed in defending. Once he does this, his...

This. He was immense tonight from the 1st minute to the last. Never stopped running, chasing down the ball and pressuring the Barca boys, clearing up after our players' mistakes etc.

He was dire last night and I cannot remember him doing anything good in our CL games. At HT I would have thought MP would take him off and put Fernando on. At least we would have a sitter there who tracks and makes a tackle. The number of times Yaya would not go into a headed challenge with some...

Forgot about that one. So, better not do a Chelsea and improve on our last meeting. My word that was a frustrating match after you've re-jogged my memory.

Tough match and will be a great game for the players to get back into the groove with a good performance. As long as we don't do a Chelsea and drop points against Burnley then we close the gap and put pressure on them to beat the Saints on Sunday.

I'll be a bit afraid every game that he might get sent off for a late challenge or diving into unnecessary challenges the way Kompany plays. If he can be more patient and chose his battles correctly then it might be a good alternative.

Re: Dressing Room Unrest? It is probably frustration for Sergio, he hasn't really hit the same form after injury and is on a dry spell at the moment. Not much things is coming off for him at the moment so I think he is desperate to get a goal and back into the groove. Yaya bypassing him is...

Re: Dressing Room Unrest? This may well be that Fernando doesn't make himself available nor look like he actually wants to receive the ball. Causes our players frustration who need him to be close by or run into space to get the attack moving. He sits too deep when we have possession so the...

He did fine coping with Messi and Alves. Was happy Alves got pissed off as he was subbed right after he rolled around from Clichy's challenge. It was fair yellow for his sending off. If it was one of their players we would be shouting for the sending off. However it is a case of a rush of...

I just want the players to be motivated with fight from the first minute to the last. A repeat of the mentality against Newcastle will help us greatly.

Was very disappointed with his performance last night, but I have not been impressed by him in any game that needed a performance from him. People had a soft spot for Garcia as he began to get better, learned how to play in this league, grew some balls and chased, harassed and got stuck into...

I hope tonight the players have the right mentality that they belong in this competition as equals and are not afraid or overwhelmed like previous encounters. Same mentality as we had when we beat Bayern then we should do well against them in both legs. No more little kids with stars in their...
