Name them.

I don't need to. You probably know more of them than I do.

 

[pride in battle]

Totally agree and genuinely can’t believe there are people on here happy with last night?!

Not running round cheering but it's still a good result away in Europe in the knockout stages, Pep was happy, he knows we aren't firing full on but what team is ? Trust in Pep and stop moaning, it's fucking tedious, God help some of the posters on here if they had to watch city when we were ACTUALLY shit...

Really?

Looks to me like the 2nd clip shows it actually doesn't go near his raised hand and hits the outside of his upper arm.

Yeah, to me it looks like outer forearm, crook of the elbow - it's not an angle or footage which changes my opinion of the first clip, in part because you don't get the sense of depth from that angle. With the other angle as well, his arms are in front and moving in motion towards the ball

Slept on it.

An away draw in the CL knockouts without Kev and Stones is a cracking result tbf.

 

[East Level 2]

What, you think they forgot to switch it on for a CL last 16 game? Just like Anfield in the FA Cup.

Absolutely mate

So they also forgot to check both goals?
I suppose the alternative s believing they are useless/biased/corrupt (delete as applicable).

4 tough games in 10 days is taking its toll, especially when no subs are used.

We had the most players at the WC too, it’s all having an effect, especially on the older players like Kev & Gundo.

Or you could say De Bruyne Foden Laporte & Lewis are well rested and will come into the side at Bournemouth to freshen things up, giving Gundo Mahrez Grealish & Dias a break, Dias mainly to ease him back in (2 games in 4 days) Jack has been great and a rest will do him good, and a nice break for our two elder statesmen

Walker is finished mate. He's even being done for pace now.

The loss of David Silva and the downturn in Kev cannot be overstated.

We have gone from the most creative team in the world to one which looks for inspiration and is now rigid in its functionality and that allows teams to plan for just staying in games.

Bellingham is a must and also need a world class playmaker.

Daughter has started playing FIFA19 (as City, good girl!) and every time I join in and he's playing it makes me a little sad for what we've lost.

Control, calmness, creativity and fight. Incredible player.

Fair enough. I'm putting it down more as 'could be given' now rather than 'was robbed' like I thought last night. Frustrating though after some of the previous we've had with Champions League var.

 

[A590 blues]

Morning after the day before

That was a mad day with the blues in Market Square, Absalutely cracking day

My feet are aching after that fucking stupid 35 minutes kept behind & the extra 3 mile walk by the police what a fucking joke

The game was a great experience, dominated the 1st 45 but not getting that 2nd is a big problem for us

They were always going to change in thev2nd half they had 2
Not seen there 1st but 100% that fucking handball right in front of us away fans was just a joke

Carrupt as fuck, obviously he was told by whoever to just blow up, incredible but we can all see now what we have to do to win a game

Some heads went down in that last 45, Walker went from comfortable to awfull, Berny ripped it up in the 1st 45 then not in the game like Rodri
Mahrez never found Haaland once, why the fuck didn't Pep change it up hes a nutter

Unless it was Grealish down the left we wernt going to score
Not a great result but on 2nd half performance I was happy getting out 1-1

Now for 2 trains, 1 flight & 2 more trains, madness but loveved it..

Get home safe mate

I like the guy who came on in the 2nd half on the right, he changed the game for them.

We lack any drive and also have no pace for transitions. Thats something Sterling gave us. Think a big rebuild is needed but do we have the players identified?
