Dortmund (H) - CL QF | Post-Match Thread

Phew. Rode our luck.

Rodri looked knackered at half time (not surprising given his exploits over the break), give that man a well deserved rest gainst Leeds.

Foden has another few levels to go up, scarily.

Time for Raz to play himself back into the side, we miss his pace.

Raz needs to be at his best if City are going to win this, time for him to shine against Leeds.

Bellingham interviewed - very impressive young man.

Incredible for a 17 year old that and came across very well. Had more influence on the game than Haaland did that’s for sure.

 

[1978 & still here]

We will beat them over there.

Bellingham is a good kid, good interview and played really well.

As for his goal, it was a foul studs up and followed through, he did get the ball but with studs up against a swinging leg is 100% a foul, imo

Not bad. We were pretty wasteful, lucky to have a goal disallowed, but managed to win it. In previous years we could easily have gone into the second leg with a 1:1 or 2:2.
It's a tough competition, and we have the potential to play better. I'm not too disappointed.

How old is Bellingham? I don’t think BT have mentioned it?

 

[SidJames]

No way the second leg finishes 0-0.

I agree.

Hence why i still think it was a really good result. Whilst not playing at our best.

More likely it will end 2-3,or 3-3.

 

[Berts Neck]

It is well known the Germans like to attack away from home, but Phil will drop a couple of bombs in Dortmund.

 

[Watters56]

What a terrible interview with Pep from Reshmin Choudray. Just embarrassing

Negatives:
Sloppy in possession on too many occasions
Dias looks to be running on empty
Not clinical enough
Gundogan not great
Conceded

Positives:
Won the game
KDB back to his best
Their right back will need a blood transfusion as he was spinning all night. Phil had him on toast
We looked more threatening with a proper number 9
We will score at least once over there
We didn’t lose

They will fancy their chances at home but so will we going there with a lead. I expect a different set up in the second leg with a number of changes. I will take a 2-1 win again second leg

As long as City score the first 2 I'm fine w/ a 2-1 win.
