Post Match Thread: Barca vs City

[grim up north]

proud of the effort and joe
Some of you are disgusting in your comments

Or disappointed?

There is disappointed and there is disgusting

Decent performance against a quality team.

Indeed it was. Matches aren't won on the number of chances created. Barca scored once and if Sergio had done his usual we would have come away with an insufficient but creditable draw! The cnuts on SSNakesTV and RatBoy would use the stats to come up with a hammering, but you get into the next round by scoring one goal more. Doesn't matter if yer've hit the woodwork a dozen times or the oppo goalie has had his game of the season. Scrappy, scabby one nil!

oh....and our crossing from both sides was awful tonight, got into some good positions and wasted chances from both sides

and your suprised, its been awful all season really. and corners, well lets not go there

That's so unlike us!

Shown for what we are, ie miles away. At least anyone who didn't watch will think it was close with the scoreline.

Barcelona has cracked the secret. Have 10 better than average players, 1 great one, and all 11 WORK THEIR FOOKING SOCKS OFF FOR 90'. They all work so hard. They work for each other, constantly, they make the run that won't get the pass, and then make it again, they pass to each other. Did I mention that they put in the work?

Well done Joe!

Navas made a big difference and Aguero got us through the group as it is.

Toure is finished.

I was suggesting Nasri for future captain material a few weeks back.

He seems to have eaten at the captain's table for the last month judging by the amount of timber he was carrying.

We need five new first-team starters.

i thought one was in the bag 50 mill bid and all?

 

[stan bowles]

We tried or some players did but we weren't good enough and Aguero's miss was massive. Hart played incredibly well but he was exposed so often it was frightening. We looked better when Navas replaced Nasri (who was next to useless) but we had nowhere near enough quality going forward. Sagna was our best outfield player tonight. Thought he was fully committed and very solid. The rest were up and down. Aguero badly needs a goal.

 

[mancitymark]

I never want to see Yaya and Nasri in a City shirt again.

 

[Sigh]

it was closer to 8-0 than 1-0. Hart alone was the difference given the defence, midfield, attack was a big fucking zero.

Don't waste your breathe on this lot, they are economical with the actualitie. Apparently a bit of graft part-way through the second half is what counts, regardless. This time tomorrow this will have turned into a victory to rival the French triumph at Waterloo.
