Bayern Munich (H) - CL QF | Post Match Thread

[Plays By Sense Of Smell]

FWIW, he is getting absolutely ravaged in Germany, both for the loss and his post-match comments.

Probably because such continued dominance easily breeds massive self-entitlement.
Take at look at La Liga or even to a lesser degree, our match day threads.
Lots of raw, unmanaged flapping.

Dias has been key to this run of games, since he’s come back hes lead the team from the back, the huddle came in and he’s driven us forward.

I thought it was a lot closer than the scoreline would suggest.

We need to be at it next game

They (Bayern) need to score 4 more than City to win the tie, or 3 to go to pens.
Can you see this happening?
I can't.

The bloke who couldn't scream when we scored 'cos the baby was sleeping make me chuckle - I've been there!!

@twosips is the bloke. ;-)

Thought their keeper made Eddie look sane

The morning after the night before, whilst any of us would have bitten the proverbial hand off for a 3-0 advantage heading to Germany. The typical city in me is worried that if the Germans get an early goal or something, last night was a showcase of the two best sides in Europe for me. I just wish we took one more chance to really put it out of sight.

That side barring a typical City moment we should be through.

Everyone was immense last night

Ederson with fantastic saves, control of his box and of course distribution

The back 4 were immense, best I’ve seen akanji in a city shirt but Dias proving why for me he’s the best CB in the world.

Grealish really excelling now

Death taxes and Erling bagging

All in all a fantastic night.

Fancy us against Madrid in this kind of form, they were lucky last season at the etihad with our missed chances

On to Leicester at the weekend, that was a statement win and Arsenals arse may fall out knowing we just done that to Bayern

Best performance in a long time collectively, everyone stood out, but I've woken up this morning a bit gutted we didn't get 6 or 7

Ihr Glückspilze

Ihr Glück roten Fötzen.

Brilliant summary - I'd assumed Tuchal would simply try to nullify us.
Clearly either understands that's not what his club wants, has been told that's not what they want, or genuinely believed he had the players to go toe to toe. In fairness I felt they were possibly the better side first half, but tweaks changed it after half time
Felt the ref was excellent in the use of play ons, and kept cards to a minimum

I was the same mate I fully expected them to sit back and counter but credit to them, they played decent football. They've got some great players too and can see him making them better than they are now in the next few seasons.
