Match Thread | Man City vs. Real Madrid (11/02/25)

The ref isn't even hiding it

Think he's played well for them in the middle of the park - certainly handy at blocking our feckin runs

 

[jimharri]

Can't see us keeping a clean sheet here.

 

[Ajm1985]

Akanji will come off so can only assume Nunes comes on or Stones into defence.

The midfield needs changing as it can't hold onto or win the ball

 

[mancityscot]

45 mins and just the two injuries. Superb!

 

[stan bowles]

Foden's got to come inside. Stick De Bruyne on the wing or bring Gonzalez on but we need more legs.

 

[SiMCFC]

We are giving up too many chances again unfortunately, but decent half of footy entertainment wise!

 

[Pingu the Penguin]

That’s a great effort from the lads. I mean there’s loads to whinge about but effort across the park

 

[Blu1]

I want to see some fresh legs on at half time otherwise we are going to be in trouble 2nd half.

Kev looks fooked & sadly foden been shite since he came on

Big 45 mins coming up

 

[youngbob]

If Foden had started I'd be taking him off.

Marmoush and Kovacic needed.

 

[Dax777]

Well played ref, always liked you ;)

Lol

 

[Goater=Legend]

Akanji looks like he's injured his groin.

 

[ali benarbia's studs]

Trossards dad is still a ****,foul on Kev.

 

[Damien10]

From uninspired to inspired!

Special mentions:

Gravidol - Monster
Haaland - Running and closing down
Stones - giant Pirlo
Ruben - Leader
Savio - determination

Great half.

 

[abu13]

some cunts in this Madrid team

 

[B\connellblue]

De bruyne is a hinderance

Ill say one thing for him ,hes doing all the pressing because Haaland isn't any help to him.

 

[clarion]

Run Phil
Defend Phil
Strong Phil

Ffs

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Rode our luck at times, but can't fault the effort. Great stuff.

 

[M Gaudino]

Foden's got to come inside. Stick De Bruyne on the wing or bring Gonzalez on but we need more legs.

Foden has been crap the guy is brain dead defensively.

 

[city saint]

Akanji isnt looking fit. I think he may have a tweak

He was holding his groin before

 

[AliAdel]

Apparently Rico Lewis was warming up…
