Match Thread | Man City vs Real Madrid (24/07/15 @ 11am)

[Bobby Heaton Moor]

Watching Fernando brings all of last years memories flooding back. Can't see him improving

The commentary on this game is beyond belief - unadulterated, hate-filled rag/dipper slime.

More possession and more shots for City but they ignore that and the nailed on penalties and summarise it as a 'cricket score'. Having said that Hart is having a mare but the third at least wasn't down to him.

What do you expect mate, sly sports at it's very best.
Fuck em.

Think you all need to be prepared for Stearling to get booed wherever he plays apart from home games.

Just getting out of bed (not getting up at 4 am for a friendly sorry) and catching up. Delph injured? Badly?

Lol Hart is not one of the best goalkeepers in the world hincliffe

He's up there in the top 10 so hardly 'lol' worthy.

 

[01cravend]

well he controlled it, the ball bounced up and he just touched it to go round Ramos but Ramos put his name up and got a penalty. Just saying I hope he packs it in else we might be playing with 10 men every week in the PL

Bit early to be p***ed up isnt it?

Denayer was marking Ronaldo as soon as there was movement from Madrid everyone lost their player including Fernando,both young centre backs were no where near their player ,that's the reality,there was only Sagna who stuck to his man
silva and nasri were observing the chaos from a safe distance

 

[Neville Kneville]

The drop in level losing Delph was exceptional. It shows & proves how badly lacking we have been in energy, & it shows how much better we can be against teams like this if we solve that.

We have also seen that Kolarov & Nasri offer nothing to this team at that level. No help to the kids at all without the ball boringly obvious going forward. Sterling is such an improvement on Nasri, it's really exciting for the season. Just needs to learn that he isn't going to get ANY free kicks in a blue shirt.

 

[CityFan94]

3-1 against Real Madrid without Kompany, Zabaleta, Mangala, Clichy, Fernandinho, Delph, Aguero and Bony isn't bad at all.

This is Real Madrid's strongest possible team.

 

[colombia-mcfc]

He's up there in the top 10 so hardly 'lol' worthy.

Top 10 but not one of the best i.e in the top 5. One of the best in england though.
