Monaco post match

[Blue Til Death]

I thought Sane came of age last night for City, he utterly destroyed their defence, he's a frightening prospect to face for any team and that performance will give him lots of confidence going forward.
What an amazing game ..... not many teams could have come back from 3-2 down against a great side like Monaco.

Hate rags getting to any final but a derby after that would have been very tough for us

How can he start going down in a split second when your watching it in super slow motion at 1000 of second timeframe?

He starts to fall before contact is made, what does the fraction of real time video have to do with it?

If you listen to Talksport today you'd think we lost. British commentators are obsessed with clearing the ball long. Eight months in, it's still the main focus.

And that's the main reason why England will continue to be a second rate international team. It's in the English psyche to play any game not to lose, so booting the ball up field by a defender optimises that mentality. It's why so many shit managers are lauded for their cold winters night at stoke mentality and occasionally you get someone like moaninho (and Ranieri last year), who has made a success from it, being fawned over.

Until people prefer attacking teams over plucky underdogs things will never change.

Only just noticed City Watch have posted on his twitter account that UEFA have confirmed that Sterling "didnt" get a yellow card after all and will be able to play in the 2nd leg...good news!!

I know some don't like the playing at the back, but I must admit I absolutely love it. no one in the prem does anything like it. Pep said it was a risk but ultimately worth it. And I agree. We play so deep, little passes, they get frustrated, rush in, and we're off. And when we get players even better at doing it, well, scary to think how good we'll be. Leave hoofing it to our noisy neighbours, give me this any day.

Stones apart, Pep has not yet addressed the defensive personnel. Once he does, watch out

100% this! Frightening to think we are a work in progress!

Rubbish YOUR watching it in super slow motion and in 2 dimension.

 

[shemnel]

what a great win, but that 2nd leg will be tricky.

Jesus the defending in that game was poor, from both sides.

What was it that De Bruyne kicked off the pitch just before there penalty... Looked like it put Falco off haha...

I was behind the goal it was a bottle of Pepsi or something.
