Plzen vs City post match thread

We were okay. Good in spells, sloppy in others. They were a positive team and played forward thinking football and we'll score goals against anyone who plays like that against us.

Nastasić and Agüero were class. Nasri played well too.

These aren't the games that concern me. It's our inability to break down packed defences.


Fans were good for once last night. Should be like that all the time.

We were getting to a point where all games were getting a little concerning to be honest. We've been very poor against plenty of teams that have had a good go at us. Struggled against pressing, struggled against parked buses - it was like we expected the space to place, but none of the caveats that come with a team giving up that space, like getting in our face.

To be able to do a Euro away, something tricky in itself for us, against a team that's won 10 of its last 11 Euro home games is a fair nights work IMO. I'd agree that on balance, we were fair to good, the beginning of the second half largely making up for a poor first, and it was just killing the game off after the third went in. But we should still be very, very happy with that result. Could have made that far more difficult for ourselves.
 
Wonderful result.

Only listened to game on Radio Manchester and via mcfc's on-line matchday thingy, so I don't have the same appreciation of watching the game live.

But it does sound like we are beginning to find our feet with the new style of play, but my slight concern is that we seemed to rely heavily on Kompany being in the team for it work.

If we beat the scum on Sunday, then my doubts about Pelligrini will disappear (I hope).
 
First up - well played to the supporters who went to the game, sounded fantastic on TV. Also to the City fan sat with the home support who celebrated every goal (obviously a local I would have thought).

.. and secondly, credit to the officials who got most things right.

An entertaining game - I called 3-0 at half-time. Yes, our defence looked a little troubled at times in the first half and there's some improvement needed for Sunday, but it was clear Plzen would weaken second half, but fair play to them, they are good enough to take points from CSKA when they visit.

Sunday will be difficult though - I can see another nail-biter, 3-2 win, perhaps.
 
Hi everyone,

Is it alright if I stay buzzing for another few days? I went to bed at 4.15 am buzzing and with the Negredo, Aguero song going through my head and have woken up about an hour ago with the Vincent Kompany song going through my head, still buzzing!!

We were magnificent, we were brilliant, we were awesome, Ya Ya released from his shackles is a sensation............. the fans were fantastic, the spider man climbing the fencing was hilarious, ............................... do you get the drift???

Onwards and upwards as always with Manchester City, The Boys in Blue never give in!!

One thing that really made me laugh................... I shouted 'oi you, leave our Zaba aione' at a Plzen player for trying to bring down Zaba, of course everything round me had gone quiet for that moment, and one of our fans turned round and looked at me and I said, 'I'm sorry' and he said................ 'no, that's alright, just never heard a woman shout so loud at a match before'!!! :-)
