Match Thread | Manchester City vs Borussia Monchengladbach (14/09/16)

Very efficient display by City this evening. Good early goal and controlled it from there.

However, it seems a village has lost its idiot, as a moron behind us booed Jesús Navas when his name was read out just before kick-off.

We really do have some wankers as fellow supporters.

You should ask them to look up support in the dictionary, thats if they can read that is.

Good so far, but I am a bit disappointed with the empty seats. i was not able to travel yesterday, but could have come tonight. As a relocated City fan, now resident on the south coast, I assumed most would haul their arses from Manchester to the Etihad for the rescheduled game, so didn't expect any chance if a ticket, sadly there are a lot of empty seats from ESPN evidence. So next time we sell out, and get a postponement, please can all the ticket holders shout about their passion for whatever it is on a Wedensday eveining that keeps them away? It pisses me off big time that locals can't be bothered any more.

Football from the Gods on display and all you can go on about is empty seats FFS ....

They weren't allowed to sell any more by UEFA so it's last night's crowd less those like yourself.

Otamendi playing fantastic again
with Stones dominant alongside. Fernandinho is absolutely critical to our team and the way we play while some of the touches showed by Gundogan show we have signed a special player. As dominant as we were for half an hour i personally think we have another gear. Can't wait until the game this season where we put it together for 90 mins. Just hope Pep
can get them to keep up this intensity.

Hope Aguero's injury isn't bad. But he can't play at the weekend anyway so plenty of time to recover.

We were not allowed to sell new tickets tonite,it would be a better crowd if we could

Reasonable first half. Only 2 goals to show for it though. As per Utd the opposition have pushed 6 up the pitch being virtually 1 on 1 with all our defenders + Fernandinho + Gundogan. As per Utd we now only look slightly the better team and are caught between going for the killer pass and keeping possession doing neither particularly well.

are you watching the same game as me ?

Aguero is still coming on... It seems... Good get a hat trick and then get nacho on

 

[Metalartin]

The message is for Stones only. He gets bollocked every match because he does many things Pep doesn't like. But Pep is only trying to develop him and push him.

But his last rollicking came after a City attack which is what made me wonder.

Watching Bravo from the top of South Stand level 2 and I can say this guy is mustard. He's constantly available for our back 4 and middle two which brings confidence and a really calming influence for the whole team. Very impressive.

And I don't think people appreciate that save he made. Watching it live it was so quick and on his weaker side. The dicks in the press are going to look so stupid come the next few months. Just bloody little englanders. I imagine bt have hardly mentioned it.
