[Blue Mist]

In the early days after the takeover we nievly (sp) believed we were as good as Madrid.
Now we know we are as good if not better than them and perhaps more importantly, so do they

Pep was correct what he said last night, His City team of 4/5 years ago would have been beaten 4 or 5-1 last night, We are a different animal now.

Real Madrid know it.

Does away goals count at the end of extra time if the sides are level after 120 mins?

Keep up……..

Haha, straight in to be being abusive….doff your cap

Some comments demand a straight to abuse kind of response. It’s very sad that after a great performance from the team in a very tough fixture that some fans feel the need to be shitty towards a player who gave everything.

 

[Stiff Little Wingers]

There are some serious Muppets on here. It saddens me to read their negative posts. For me our boys did us proud against one of the worlds best teams, in an intimidating stadium.
Well done I say to our warriors in blue. It’s only half time, but fight like that again and history will remember this brilliant squad of players, supporting the best manager off all time.
One day this incredible run of ours will stop. Enjoy this period in our history because I doubt it will last forever.

Super post. My sentiments exactly

Anyone know how many tickets Real have been allocated for next week?

I'd have taken a draw before the game and I'm reasonably happy with the result, but it's still a bit annoying to only draw when we were ahead twice.
Keeping it at 1-0 was always unlikely but we should have been able to hold on to 3-2. And that really would have shit them up for the second leg. We go on and I'm fairly confident we'll beat them as we did last year, but I can't see it being 4-0 again. I expect the atmosphere to be equally electric though.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

I don't think they were happy coming to the Etihad regardless of the score, after what happened last year.

Their fans don't travel so it'll be basically be a cauldron of blue, and after watching them give their best last night in front of their fans, I don't think they've got much else to give.

We've hopefully got Ederson, Walker and Kev to return, which should make us a different proposition.

Bring hell down on their heads, fry their brains with noise,they don't like it !!

 

[brazilians hurt]

As an Arse fan I reckon he’s projecting what he wants to happen. IF it was them v RM in the semi, they’re likely favourites. If it’s BM v City, they’re not!

And of course he is a smarmy twat with little or no real insight

It should be about 2,700 as the CL rules say 5%. We may have given them 3,000 to keep the same segregation we use for PL games. Last year the didn't sell their full allocation but there were RM fans in many other areas of the ground.
