Real Madrid (A) CL Semi Final 2nd Leg - Wed 4th May, 20:00 (BST) | Pre-Match Thread

[el wey]

I think we should approach like we would any other game, we should set the tempo and try and score early.
I don't think tonight should be any different.

3-1 to us.

COME ON CITY!!!

I reckon they'll try to press us for the first 10-15 minutes. If we can hold up to that, then the match is ours.

City by three or four, a glorious night.

Forget Madrid give me a game like this anyday lol

Me and my brother was at that game
Used to love them days.
Different level of expectancy these days.

They were more fun and less stress unless we were fighting for promotion or against relegation.

 

[thanatos]

Have to think the key will be surviving the early press.

PEP OUT after that goal!!!

 

[Chak19]

Indeed, they were absolutely solid at the back last week if you ignore the 12 great chances we created.

Yes apart from conceding four goals they kept a clean sheet.

who scored in the end?

 

[jimharri]

I've been okay up to now. But the nerves are beginning to suffer now.

 

[SatOnTheWall]

who scored in the end?

Lakey was credited with it if I’m not mistaken. Couldn’t see at the time and didn’t care, to be honest.

Whose your source?

 

[Baconsane]

We need to stifle play to Vinitius Knid, take our chances, and we'll emerge victorious.

 

[mancityvstoke]

Paris will be chaos...........

 

[tommybooth]

Can feel the pressure just starting to rise.

This is what pep and the players plus the club have worked so hard for, night's like this.
Forget losing the final last season, this tie is bigger, we are talking about an elite club that's won this 14 times,
we have to get this job finished, then they will sit up and take notice once and for all.

I think this semi-final is bigger than the final because of the respect pep got for them and if we beat them over the 2 legs then pep has built a team that can beat anybody, even Liverpool.

I think we are ready, pep is not 100% but after tonight we will know one way or the other.

Do you honestly believe that?

 

[BringBackSwales]

They were more fun and less stress unless we were fighting for promotion or against relegation.

Or just fighting

City by three or four, a glorious night.

I've just said that to a fellow blue.

There's a confidence in the players that we as fans are lacking.

Of course if we do score 3 or more it'll be because Real Madrid are crap...
