I’m away with work this week and I watched the game on BT Sport last night. Lucy Ward was abysmal throughout the match. Even to the point where she said that “Bayern will definitely score against City tonight”. Constantly cheering Bayern on. Gave us zero credit all night….

Bernardo could well have missed and nearly did, Sommer (****) got two hands on it somehow and if Bernardo hadn't connected absolutely beautifully with that header and got as much force behind it as he did, it wasn't going in.
Haaland's goal, mid air with his weaker foot, was a far harder finish than he'll be given credit for.

If you look for bias in that minutest of detail you are sure to find it so carry on.

Looks like the fail gets their stories from here. Some bloke jokes about getting in his head and lo and behold it’s headlines
‘Fan screams 'O CANADA' at Bayern Munich left back Alphonso Davies’

Is that newsworthy?

I actually heard it on the commentary on RTE but assumed I had mis-heard it.

Turns out I didn't........... :-)

Paradise is still sat in a dark room somewhere trying to work out how to put a negative spin on the performance.

Is he still billed as the Manchester football correspondent?

I heard him last apart from Dias ripping him a new one on talkragshite a few years ago when I mad enough to listen and I think it was when the rags & us had midweek CL games.

He talked without a pause about how wonderful the rags were, going the right way, almost back to former glory, name checked lots of players etc then after what seemed forever spent very little time just errr errr errr City errr errr errr, couldn't actually find anything to say about us.

Must admit I was laughing my bollocks off at the state of his presentation, unwillingness to praise us and/or lack of knowledge.

No doubt you read on here Paradise.....read this, you are a waster and a bitter shithouse.

Just watched it back on BT. Deeper voice and she could have been mistaken for Martin Keown.

Jamie Jackass wasn't allowed to write the report tonight.
Instead he wrote some ratings. They're quite something, as in barely worth the minimal effort he obviously put in.

Erling Haaland, Bernardo Silva and John Stones impressed for the hosts, while the entire Bayern backline struggled

Dias - (7) Near faultless???

Ha, ha, ha... Twat.

Ruben clearly rattled him at the presser. What a f*cking cabbage.

Maybe he still thinks Ruben, Stones and Akanji are ‘sluggish’ as he wrote in his pre match nonsense

 

[Gobshiight]

We often criticise BT Sport’s coverage of City in Europe, but just watching the game back and tbf the commentator (Darren Fletcher) seems to be genuinely enthusiastically celebrating our goals. Shouldn’t really be noteworthy, but this is where we are.

I can't take anyone seriously that complains about the commentary being biased against us

When we play a foreign team in the Champions League, the commentators are basically cheering us on, and rightly so. Last night was no different

On the other hand, the pre-match stuff was all Bayern and Hargreaves gave them too much credit after the game as well

Your doing cabbages a disservice mate

Made the mistake going to the guardian. Ronay’s piece on Bernardo seems v complimentary on the surface but littered with unnecessary snide jibes about his physical appearance. Didn’t make it to the end, maybe it improved.
