Wow when we turned it on second half.
Glad because people all over the planet got to witness a masterclass display.

Little Citeh from Maine Road are World Class.
Don't wake me up if I'm dreaming.

we have to believe we are good enough to play on that level and beat teams. its a mental block and the media have put this into everybody heads that its little old city again. the 2nd half was like a switch pep turned on. that 15 minutes at half time must have been pep biggest team talk at manchester city ? we was going out and looking at a big defeat in the face if we kept on playing like we did

forget the goals for a minute that manchester city 2nd half was a whole different team ? in fact we should have won by more but am greedy. the way we hurt them was clear to see and PSG was done stick a fork into them. they was chasing shadows and only way they could stop us was by kicking out they had nothing left and they felt pain
nothing worst than being asking to chase the ball when there is nothing left in the tank you revert to kicking out
because your mind is shot

i also have a big talking point that may have been missed with the score line at half time ? the PSG players in the tunnel got into the referee and all sort was said. hands waving fingers pointing ? then the 2nd half started and the referee was not giving us nothing i thing. it was about 4 or 5 fouls just waved away. until marhez was fouled on the edge of the box and the ref again wave play on. marhez got up and just smiled and the players knew then its time to play and take control because they was not letting the officials control the game THIS HAS TO BE LOOK AT BY CITY why did the referee let PSG players and coaches talk to him in the tunnel and put pressure on him and its why we must fear what the officials can do if we don't kill them off in the 2nd leg

He walked off at half time chatting to them and walked back on chatting away to them

Bollocks

You're right. We dominated in every department, possession (especially), pass completion, defence, shots and most importantly - goals. How is a win with those facts fortunate ? And we know we can play better against this PSG team.

Any alternative commentary ?

Not out till 12

Whatever the PSG player did it didn't work because he gave one of their players a straight red and denied them a penalty that we may of seen given by the inept refs in the PL.

without spending hours trawling the internet, that must be a record?

What a horrible toxic bunch PSG are. Diving, cheating, snide fouls and in the ref’s face every two minutes. They’re basically Porto with a bigger budget. The French united

First team to win 10 games in a single campaign since the current format was introduced in 2003/04

He walked off at half time chatting to them and walked back on chatting away to them

....and while he seemed to be whistling against us any time they fell over at the start of the second half - and let a couple of iffy fouls by them on us go unpunished - he still gave the free kick for Mahrez's goal, yellow carded the boy for booting the ball away (and they had to sub him off later), correctly showed the red card for the cynical foul on Gundogan and wasn't swayed by the frantic pleading by PSG players to get KDB sent off when he trod on the boys foot. He wasn't perfect by any means but he got the decisive stuff correct IMO. We've had much worse whistling wankers....think of a certain Spanish showman.
