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

[SilvaisSkyBlue]

Bayern will absolutely batter us, but we need to make semis to show progress.

Mate, give it a rest, nothing is decided until we meet Bayern, have you considered they may get beat in the QF themselves...

I don’t know why we were sloppy, don’t know if the players are nervous or what. We kept giving the ball away, just pray the players are calm next week

 

[WestGorton]

I couldn’t believe that. In front of all the players too

He was delighted too. Haaland should have declined but he is only 20.

 

[Bald fraud]

Our pitch is a disgrace why is it so shit? You look at Madrid Liverpool pitch they played on it was like a carpet!

It was supposed to be replaced before this season but couldn’t because of COVID hopefully it’ll be back to the billiard table we’re used to next season

 

[Heath Park]

Linesman getting Haalands autograph. Oh dear.

Embarrassing...
He looked like a seven year old kid there.

 

[Blueknows]

Since losing to spurs in november
In all comps-
Played 35...W 31..D 3...L 1
For 81 against 13

 

[Nascent Blues]

Dias will be raging about getting muscled off the ball by Haaland.
He won’t be making that mistake again.

If Haaland bounces him again, Dias might not have a choice.

 

[WestGorton]

Must be a blue ; )

Haha

 

[Eccles Blue]

Fuckin ell look at the size of that thing!

He would absolutely destroy Premier League defences.

Love the way they both had their hands over their mouth! No lip reading happening there! The younger players have really cottoned on to that!

 

[brummie blue]

BT fucking love Bellingham

He's 17, bloody massive, and a great talent who's just made his England debut, they and every other media outlet will be talking about him over the summer. He cost 25 Mil, Dortmund will double there money in three years

 

[SWPISHOME]

Embarrassing...
He looked like a seven year old kid there.

To be fair Haaland looks tall for a 7 year old..

 

[hertsblue]

Not saying Haaland looks a beast but Foden looks like his skeleton :)

 

[oakiecokie]

"What does it say about my employers when I can't ask one question that is above the level of my 5 year old?"

Seriously !! QUE ??

I was being serious. I don’t know as much as you about how these pitches are put together, and what % of them is natural grass for example, and what size the sections are that get put in. I wondered, but thanks for clarifying. I’m just frustrated by how poor the surface has become.

yeh a percentage at city is synthetic so the natural grass has to knit with that and the top soil,id say 8 weeks before its playable and thats growing it in August, i think whats happend city would have had it re done but the season getting under way was unsure because of covid, it wont suit Bayern either if we get through

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

Well Utd are bang average, yet they gave us a game and won.
Well done lads, it was a tough game , and I think we deserved it in the end

Yes my point exactly.. bang average teams can do us on their day. We did deserve it in the end tonight and we will learn from this game for the next match.

 

[TueartsOHK]

Jenas has to be the biggest bellend in football. Can’t believe we have to listen to the complete bollocks that comes out of his mouth.

 

[Josh_D]

Not the best performance but the players stuck at it. Missed chances, some nice play by a few standout players, and misplaced passing. It was all there. Will be an interesting second leg.

Glad to have got the win.

If Haaland bounces him again, Dias might not have a choice.

That was all i needed to see to know I want him here next season.

 

[I'm Blue]

The refs are people, not just officials, maybe with young kids who adore the player and he won't get a chance like that again.
Fair play as far as I'm concerned.

Time and a place, not in front of all the other players, could've done it later.
Very unprofessional.

I thought their pressing and their positioning without the ball to close down our passing angles was really intelligent, and for the most part, it worked.
