Match Thread | Man City vs Barcelona (18/02/14)

This is going nowhere near to plan. Barca have setup a tea room in our half and we're half-heartedly banging it long to Negredo. We have to play our game and we're not doing that at the minute

Growing slowly, except for Demichelis :)

Yaya, Mozart.


What's the difference?

THAT IS NOT A FUCKING FOUL YOU **** UEFA REF

Alves pushed Negredo into the keeper then started holding his side. Joke decision.

Now this is more like it. For all Barca's passing they've seen the left side of the pitch, then the right, then the left etc.
No fear Blues, have at 'em!

If you wanna beat Barca this is how you'll have to do it.

Easy to shit on other teams when they use these tactics, but sitting back, holding them outside your penalty area, and hitting on quick counters is how you win.

Welcome to the knockout stages, gents.

Lesson in condescension.

Well done.

Anyone want to tell MdM what colour we're playing in tonight!

They haven't threatened for shit.

Possession for the possession's sake so far.

Alves on about his 4th/5th foul
