Castiel said:It looked like City was afraid of them, just like against Bayern. You did much more with the ball than they did, they're nowhere near as impressive as they were under Guardiola. But I can't see you coming back from this at the Nou Camp. They just strangle the life out of the game and slowly wear you down like a boa constrictor. Not sure if Pellegrini was just afraid of away goals or what but you should have been more aggressive. At lest you can go there with absolutely nothing to lose now.

Well it was funny how you actually got better with a man down. I think that was because you needed something and playing defensive wasn't going to cut it. If you had taken that approach from the start I think you'd have beaten them. Alves was a red card waiting to happen, if Nasri had started he'd have taken the piss.prestonibbo_mcfc said:Got to agree. Sat off them way too much. We were the home side, it was up to us to take the game to them.
So disappointed.
