Think we’ll get through 2-2 draw tomorrow..

At the time, Wilfried Bony was a top signing. He'd been on fire at Swansea and I doubt that anyone would have thought at the time that he wouldn’t be a success at City.

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, as they say!

As for tomorrow night, I'm not remotely worried. If we play reasonably well, we will win. On an average day, City are easily the best team in world football.

Keeping our eye on the PL is far more important for me.

He was a big fish in a small pond there

I think we are going to wipe the floor with these twats tomorrow....

Spanish Rags 1-4 MCFC

Same scoreline as the first leg

True, but he was scoring goals for fun and looked just the job for us at the time.

Just in from watching dippers game with a few of them (good while it lasted ).
Once they equalised all they could go on about was RM doing us tomorrow and they in turn will batter RM.
What it really meant was they don't want us in the final because they know we will turn them upside down.
Come on City do the business.

Didn't he contract malaria shortly after signing and never looked the same quality of player again.

I’m way too confident for my own liking.

its that second half vs Atletico that makes me worried a bit.

we lost the ball almost every time we had it and had to defend much more for that reason. which we did but there were couple of close situations and thy did not have as much quality upfront as Real.

controlling the game is a nice idea, very hard to do it vs a pressing team that is fighting for their life especially at this level...

we need our best passing tomorrow, accurate passes, offering an options, make the runs. none of those arrogant passing in the back from Ederson.
i would hate nothing more than lose out on the CL due to a misplaced pass between keeper and defence at the back or some shit like Steffen pulled in FA semis.

Foden-Jesus-Mahrez front three is almost certain
with KDB-Bernardo-Rodri midfield.
Cancelo-Laporte-Dias-Walker probably the defence.

Ancelotti and Modric both said they need to defend much better, wonder how different their system will be given they are a goal behind as well.

hope we have a clinical night, would be so nice to have 3 chances all game but scoring 3 of those. along with a clean sheet lol.
