Match Thread | Man City vs At. Madrid (05/04/22)

It’s not about going long to an attacker, it’s about recognizing when they’ve exposed themselves. They’d come up with 5 players and lost the ball. Rodri had it and Bernardo was thirty yards ahead in the middle of the park screaming at him to feed him. We’d have been 5 on 5 but instead he took three touches allowed 3 of their men back and only then did he give it to Bernardo.

At this level we need to be quicker to sense when the balance on the pitch has tipped in our favour and exploit it.

Agree with what you’re saying completely. Rodri’s usually holds the ball. I remember that’s why I didn’t warm up to him initially as he holds it longer than necessary

Doesn't touch him but gets a free kick, fuck off

 

[I'm Blue]

We need a thunder bastard from anyone in blue.

 

[ScottSinclair]

Think the ref has been very good so far in fairness

 

[Paul1970]

Don’t go end to end blues we still need to go to their place. No need to gamble anything

Might be better at Madrid because they need to win this aswell and could open up abit more .

Mahrez so poor tonight

 

[M Gaudino]

Doesn't touch him but gets a free kick, fuck off

mental health referral for you as well

 

[homerdog]

I don't give a fuck what way the opposition play. This is City ,at home in a champions League quarter final and Their goalie hasn't had a shot to save. Anyone happy with that half is only fooling themselves.

Well, I'm happy with it.
