City vs Roma Post Match Thread

[bayern blade]

Congratulations on going through, didn't see the game but it must have been some performance. I've been posting on here since we first played you a few years back and, unlike the tossers on the Chelsea, Man Utd and Arsenal sites 95% of you on here are decent lads so once again well done and good luck with the draw. Doubtless we'll see each other in the group phase next year, we'll get Arsenal in the next round too same as every bloody season.

Our game was a bit of a snore fest but we got the result.

Fantastic result, Fernandinho and Fernando , along with Samir were absolutely brilliant today..

Thank god someone else saw how good Fernandinho & Fernando were. Bets performance i have seen from a midfield pair for a long time.

Fern and Fern is going to catch on Blue Moon

I also thought it was interesting what neville was saying re: toure and the defensive aspect of games in europe. Maybe something for Manuel to consider.

To be honest mate, it's only what the more insightful posters on here (not me, I might add) having been saying for 2 seasons. We cannot rely on Yaya in a midfield 2 when playing against better sides, i.e. in Europe and against top PL sides.

I made the comment pre-match that our being forced to play Fern and Fern in the middle might be a blessing in disguise and whereas we have no idea what the outcome would have been had Yaya played, what we can say is that he didn't play and we looked better than we have done in most of our CL outings to date.

The big question is, is Pellegrini going to learn from this? You would think he should, but every time we have joy with a 4-5-1 or 4-4-1-1 formation and we think he's finally got it, he surprises us by going back to 4-4-2 again next game. Will Pellegrini be able to leave Yaya out, or to play him in front of two more disciplined midfielders (Fern - Fern or Fern - Milner for example) next outing? I just don't know.

A few thoughts of mine..... mostly about Jamie Jackson to be honest..

Id rather Monaco/Dortmund/Porto in the next round then take them in the quarters with us at home second leg.

As for last night, incredible team spirit and performance. Our best champions league display to date.
