Manager reaction - 'Sometimes you need to be more relaxed'​

Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola to BT Sport: "Sometimes you need to be more relaxed and be ourselves. The first half is normal - you don't want to lose the ball [so] you don't play free. We changed a little in the way we press. We were passive [earlier on]. Then we were more aggressive. It's not easy against Mbappe, Neymar, Di Maria.

"Afterwards we found goals and could have scored another. I'm so satisfied with the performance but we're only halfway. There are 90 more minutes. Anything can happen.

"We didn't have good possession in the right positions. This club don't have much experience in the semi-finals of this tournament. This will help us. In the second half we were aggressive and played really good.

"Against Dortmund, we conceded and came back. Today the same. [We were] ourselves in the second half. We are good playing in a certain way - we can't do a different way."

PSG boss Mauricio Pochettino to BT Sport: "There were two different halves - we did well in the first half but it is difficult to eliminate a team like City. We deserved to be ahead but they were better than us and dominated the second half. The two goals were accidents, but they created more than us. It was one half for each team.

"The two goals are very disappointing. It is difficult to accept but that can happen, and it has happened in a semi-final. It is very painful.

"It is difficult to explain why they were better but we were better in the first half. It was difficult to cope, their physical condition, they were more aggressive. We didn't show the energy you need. The red card could be yellow, could be red.

"The second leg - in football you need to believe. They have the advantage."

It's good that Poch can't explain why we were better.

You can see why Gullet never made it as coach.

Come on Blues. Get something online to show his employers how much damage they are doing to their business, and get this **** fucked off

Whatever bias Carragher has - that bloke doesn't matter

I go back to Kate Abdo’s brutal slam from the QF…

ABDO: If Liverpool are not in the CL next season I’m not sure if you’ll be here.

SPITTER: You’ll lose half your audience!

ABDO: We might have an opening on the Thursday show!

MICAH: (Crying laughing)

Plus, did you see Micah’s reaction to KDB’s equalizer? UFBly good, and funny!

Massive result for the club. This was a big test.

Who did RWAK’s predictions go btw ? ;-) I’ve not looked.

I hope we don’t get over confident in second leg. This PSG team can score goals. We need kill the game and frustrate them early. If we score first the tie should be over.

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Like us, they have the ability to score a couple of quick goals. This tie isn’t over.

That said, let’s just revel in the warm after glow of CITY’S BIGGEST WIN IN EUROPEAN HISTORY…with only the Cup Winners Cup win coming close.

Today was a very very good day in the long term history of City’s trajectory as a European power.
