Play like that on Wednesday and we go through. I hear Madrid struggled today, maybe they rested players I don't know

Bellingham sent off, I heard.

What a difference it makes with a proper number six playing.

Agreed he just did what we were missing
He sat in position and either tackled or kept us on the ball the simplicity of it was what I liked.Certainly he is going to be a big help in these big games coming up.

What a difference a DM makes! We are knocking those Madrid bastards out and winning the CL. Fuck top 4 we will qualify as the champions of Europe!

I agree but the point with Nico, same as Rodri or Busquets, they aren’t just DM s they are much more than that they are the rare thing that is a Pep style pivot that understand the organisational side and the transition side of the position as much as the defensive side.
These players are highly specialised and those with all the right attributes ,for us, worth their weight in gold. Waiting for the young Gonzalez may well prove to be a great decision.

Nico was outstanding and allowed Gundo to play.

Top performance all over the park.

Nico looks a leader. Pointed more than McManaman.

City fans had waited a long time to see the kind of flowing football their side produced in the first half.

Includes interview with Pep.

He looks and plays like a young Busquets I understand the comparisons now made by Xavi and the Barca board. He slows play down, always with his head up and press resistant. Doesn't need to run around. Walks and scans the play in front of him.

A guilty pleasure...

Goldbridges Mrs is 100% fuckin the gardener.

The little weasel.
100% a cuckold little worm.

It’s probably already been said somewhere in this thread but I’ve not been home long - @Eccles Blue Johnny was magnificent:-)

 

[AndyP68]

Think it was mainly down to the fact we played them off the park in every position

I also expect that at 3-0 they looked to the cup final…

 

[mancityvstoke]

They all fucked off early and some of the mard arses got thrown out......shit support.


Here there every fuckin where empty seats

 

[Sheik Battle and Goal]

Like watching City

The signings wow the best compliment is the fact they look like they have been here forever

Special shout out to Nico, as he grew into the game he started to direct operations like a pivot should do There is no doubt in my mind that he was top of a list of one when it came to who we wanted and the delay was respecting Porto in their Europa League campaign

So early days but it looks encouraging for the future Looks like we have the lads to take their place

Finally well played Gundo

Pity about the late RM goal last week. With that starting 11 today I’d fancy us to have beat them next week. Still game on though.

Thank you. I am in football heaven tonight for more than one reason. :-)

That’s not till 16 March! Can’t assume anything yet, they need to win every game. Top 4 would be important

 

[Burtonblue]

With away goals no longer counting I really fancy us smashing Madrid out of the cup if we play anything like that.
Nico must start.

 

[kupest]

if anything, we took the foot off the gas with Madrid in mind, Newcastle dont play for 8 days now.

But according to some you don’t get value in the January transfer window

 

[mancityvstoke]

Barcodes in the city end?

No.....in their own tiers.........a few got all moody when City lads winding them up. Cops dragged them out.

Towards 70 mins they had half disappeared. Supposed to be top loyal Geordies.

Giving them the empty seats shit back was satisfying.
