Show me a side in world football that is any different?
What do some of you expect?
He has a point. The drop off in quality when Kev, Dave and Sergio aren’t out there is disproportionately steep. Had it not been for Leroy and Bernardo (1st half only) and a decent cameo from young Diaz, I’d have rated that as the most toothless City performance of the last 5 years. We had over 900 passes and only one shot in the final 55 minutes of the game. Our back up players have got to have more zip than that. Jesus in particular I thought was awful and Stones sloppy beyond belief in the 1st half. Good for Foden to get a run out and Jesus will of course improve dramatically once he gets his fitness back, but all in all that was fucking piss poor stuff.

some weird people on here. the game was already won so Pep adopted perfect game management. play the players who r struggling to get in the 1st eleven n blood the kids. perfect game for experience. the game wud be a victory in peps eyes....teenagers blooded in the CL and fringe players run out against a CL team.

In any part of life you should never let your standards drop. I'm surprised Pep allowed it. I don't expect he'll let it happen again.We're 15 points clear, into the quarters of the champions league and have won a cup already.
Some of you are spoilt.

Zinchenko, Touré, Danilo, Stones, Laporte.
Based on tonight - none of these are going to be anywhere near our first 11. Stones World Cup place is on the line the way he’s playing.
Unfortunately it was some city fans, frustrating performance but no need for thatBlues at the game, was that City fans booing or Basel fans booing or possession? And maybe at the end? Strange if it was our own.
