Barca v City Post Match Thread

[robbieh]

The lack of a great DM and two quality full backs is going to cost us this season.

Maybe Txiki should have addressed that

We won't be winning this in the next 4 years FACT

Pmsl.....carry on.....

It's mind boggling how anyone can contend we are further away. Shocking opinion!

Ok mate - tell me how a 4-0 battering by a strolling Barcelona and Messi playing at 50% of his normal game but still bagging a hat-trick, makes us anything but further away?

its still early in the groups we only need to come 2nd to get to the knockouts in jan and then we will have a couple of new faces you never know in football we looked good at times and the signs of a team are there so its early to jump on the bang wagon and listen to the media and BT panel

The team played well - just not able to convert. Not worried we will qualify from the group then it is all about match-ups. Not sure what everyone panicking was thinking - beating Barc at Nou Camp and topping group?

This. I think the Celtic result was more disappointing in some ways, and the scale of tonights defeat was due to the red card and that fucking Spanish midget of course.

I am calming down a bit. Rose for sure at LB, despite the diving. Lloris but would Pep want him, he's not a sweeper. Maybe Walker as we are piss poor in that position. Dele Ali obviously. Erickson maybe. Dier yes.

Arsenal have a whole loead of talent I agree. But the point is Pep is supposed to be a football genius whereas he currently look like a guy who got lucky just like Luis Enrique. Surely great managers beat better teams by outhinking the opposition

That's a whole lot of shit in one post there fella

It doesn't matter much in the great scheme of things as no english team will win the CL for several years and when they do no doubt it will be Liverpool!!

Silk purse - sows ears......

Tricky I admit, but still easier than polishing turds as Maureen is trying to do down the road.

Err...you mean Argentinian midget!
