Absolutely awesome night for City - off to bed, lads, up early! Crack on with the top comments! CTID

“Finally, Manchester City have found someone who can take a penalty. It's Kevin De Bruyne, of course. Who else was it going to be? The Belgian succeeded where so many have failed for the club this season, and delivered a milestone victory for Pep Guardiola and UEFA's antagonists to boot.

In doing so, he carried out the wishes of those who had travelled from Manchester to Spain for this. 'F*** UEFA,' they demanded and De Bruyne and City did....”

Is this now the longest post-match thread after we've actually won a game?

Nope, go take a look at one particular thread in classics.

9.4% alcohol by volume and no food.

I’ve decided this is a good luck charm and intend to continue the tradition!

Have you considered becoming a motivational speaker ?

Bet that was fkin great

Yeah it was. Shame we couldn’t get tickets!

My plan is to tw@t him with a spade. In court it would be "He was already falling when I hit him your honour" :-k

Macmanaman and fletcher were as biased against us tonight as they possibly could. Listen to the commentary for the first 20 mins and everything was spoken from the Madrid perspective, and there were constant negatives about Pep and his tactics. Then in the last 10 minutes they reinvented history and told us it was a Pep master class. Cunnts. Please tie a knife to the end of the spade.

At the other end of the spectrum was the ref, who was impartial throughout, unexpectedly. Didn’t agree with every decision, but tbf I cant think of a ref who I ever have. Wish it was him and not Cheat Mason on Sunday

And he'd demand £350k a week. don't think any club is desperate enough or stupid enough to go for him

Can't see him taking a 40% pay cut.

That was appalling by Mahrez at the end, to not even get a shot away was criminal.

Was even worse to then not track his man at the back. If Ferland had put that in I’d have flown to Madrid to smack Riyad myself. Shocking stuff.

Oh aye....this is a very, very, very distant second.

Souness reckons De Bruyne is the best midfielder in Europe.

Rio said best in the world :)
