we getting chances galore, kun will put one away, or i trust in the mightly Alek to deliver a mighty free kick in top corner

 

[pudge]

Just watch Yaya for a minute or two and take in the reality of what a lazy, disinterested prick he is this season.

 

[BigOscar]

Has Yaya been in either final 3rd yet or is he limiting himself to just the very middle of the pitch? Every fucking time in Europe he does this, I seriously would never pick him for a champions league game unless we were playing some goatherders from a country I've never heard of. Disgraceful

Two ferns second half, both told to sit back, protect the back and let the from 4 attack.

 

[Damanino]

If he fails to make our midfield more stble and we concede because of that and then only after that he will try to make us stronger in the middle then I dont know what I will say about Pelle.

This midfield duo cannot control the midfield in any way today, and usually its the same for every CL game of ours.

 

[@BluePhil8]

Astounded at just how bad Otamendi is. Yaya a passenger, but as someone said, he's carrying an injury.
Some serious engineering needed at HT.

Every single centre half we've played under Pellegrini has looked dog shite at one point or another. It's what happens when your two centre mids aren't tasked with any defensive duty and the manager's game plan includes the centre halfs charging down the ball.

 

[Tricky_Trev]

People actually think Aguero's missing chances because of a number on his back... don't they? Baffling

 

[grim up north]

Fuck me, this is bobbins.

For me, Pellers has to fucking go. The way he sets us up in Europe is fucking criminal.

We play a high line but we don't press! What's all that about?

And I want our Aguero back. What's happened to him this season? Couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo.

Hello

 

[aguero93:20]

It pissed me off at the start of the game.We had been playing ONLY 183 SECONDS and he complained that City were awful !!! WTF ???

189 seconds.

 

[jollylescott]

We definitely look bereft of confidence, and this is a very average Borussia team. There seems to be acres of space for them on the counter, which says something about our midfield and game plan. It might be worth pushing KDB into the middle and Silva out wide, to try and get Kev into the game a bit more. At our best we would smash this team. I am still confident that we can win this.

Zaba on and move sagna to centreback. Demichelis has been shocking. Does not help when our midfield is offering no cover for the defence.
