VAR is wank. That is all.

Oh and 2 mins ET! Ha ha

Surely every goal doesn't have to go to VAR?

it does when it's a City goal, and it's Uefa!

C***s

It's not all about being late! They deserve the boos.

Starting to really dislike VAR, fans should be able to see what VAR sees, not like a secretive process like it is right now.

According to BT, city aren't creating anything, they have to do more blah blah blah

For the first 25 mins we didn't really, which is when they said it. We then stepped up a gear and scored 3. They then recognised that as well.

There commentary can be shit, but apart from couple of stupid comments not been bad at all tonight

I’ve stopped praising any half decent refs now.
Somehow they get their scripts half time or the brown envelope finds its way into their bags.

True, but I think we've got this game in the bag instead :)

Great first half but VAR takes far too long, ref has been decent though.

I think UEFA’s use of it is frankly, quite poor. Contentious decisions or close calls I reckon it’s used for. It’ll get better hopefully as time goes by. Football is behind on the tech train, as so many officials have been against it for a while.

7 attempts, 6 on target.
That's how it should be with the world class forward line that we have.
And another 45 mins to come!

There’s no need to push it now, keep the ball and if the chances arise, put them away. Protect some of our usual suspects.

Excellent all around. Aguero looked really sharp after the first goal. Stand out performances from Gundogan, Sterling, Zinchenko and Mangala.
