You don't get easy games in Champion's League semi-finals.

Shouldn't be so easy for PSG then.

time to change it,we cant aford to concede again ,take these back at 2 nil down and were out,im sure we'l come good though and get that away goal

Just been too passive. PSG have been snapping into tackles and giving us no time on the ball while we have been standing off them, waiting for them to pass.

We're almost playing with 4 up front in a semi-press when PSG have the ball and if they get it through us, they have so much time and space to come forward.

We need to be a bit smarter on and off the ball. Foden and KDB have been very quiet and Cancelo has been awful today. I'd look at getting Zinchenko on if he doesn't improve. Maybe Jesus as well for KDB.

If we tighten up our play a bit, we can still win this.

Flap flap flap give it a rest

Match thread innit.

We're better than this but this getting "schooled" bollocks is doing my head in. They were slightly better.

Correct, we're playing PSG away and some people seem to think we should be battering them, I swear to God, City get a fairer shake on Red Issue than they do on the Bluemoon matchday thread.

BT of course only covering what PSG need to do to progress.

Well, that was...I don't even know what to say, is it nerves again, are we so bad, or they make us bad? What the fuck was that, half-ass, half-hearted performance, If we want to do something we need to start playing football, this is the name of the game. And all this bullshit about slow mf, we need a new lb, two players who failed miserably the first half are Riyad and KdB, they did literally nothing. The first dis just everything wrong and KdB plays like he is crocked, his movement when we are attacking and he is waiting for the ball is non existent. I said in pre-match thread, I'll always go with Jesus and not Bernardo up front, no player today is better at what he does when we are pressing. And can somebody tell Pep Phil is on the pitch and he should do something to get him in the game. I hope we cannot have another half so poor ad still easily we could and should be 1:1.

Yes but we need to score to have a chance to stay in this, agree its a big risk to bring Sergio on, but he knows how to find that net.

He’s a threat and reputation alone means he will occupy the CBs

 

[WestGorton]

They saved themselves for this. We fight on all fronts.

 

[JoeD]

Played boys. Soak up the pressure.
second leg, we do them. We will exit this leg 2-1 up.

Thant's a very optimistic take on the match and I'm quite baffled that people are still underestimating PSG despite what they showed until now..

They're no mugs and should've scored 3 at the very least. I suspect Pep will do some changes at HT because it won't end well if this keeps on.
