Now i'm not superstitious but I've just been informed that Pep has played 9 semis and lost 6, as opposed to played 10 lost 7 like he said....

Sometimes numbers do not say whole truth until you add even more numbers :)

He lost with Barcelona the CL semis against Inter and Chelsea when park the bus strategy was adopted and Barca completely dominated the games but couldn't score. Against Inter, Barcelona had 42 total attempts(YES 42!) in the home game but....
Same with Atletico Madrid where Bayern had 34 attempts with 12 on target at home(versus 7 total of Atletico), only to win 2-1(xG goals calculated at 4.12-0.25 if I recall). They dominated away game also only to lose 1-0 and eliminated on away goals.

Against Real Madrid Ronaldo scored twice from an offside position, Bayern did not get a cleal penalty and a red card was gifted to Real Madrid. UEFA gifted that semi final series to Real Madrid.

Against Barcelona, Bayern I recall had many injuries and Messi was on top form so unstoppable.

Last year against Real Madrid, City dominated both games, especially the home game where score should have been 6-3 easily. But..... And 2nd game at Madrid, Real M. was not dangerous at all and City controlled the game but those damn 5 minutes....

Should I put 50 quid on a Madrid win in 90 mins, if City win in 90 I'm delighted and lose fifty quid, if Madrid win in 90 I'm fucked off City are out but make 250 quid?
Not sure I have the bottle to do it

I never get fans who do this… as if £250 makes up for a defeat! It’s a shithouse move. So in short, no!

You could get a half and half scarf and claim victory either way

Do whatever you want mate, at least you get some profit if we do go out.

Never understood why people get so uptight about doing this, you putting £50 on City to lose will have absolutely no bearing on the actual outcome.

Nah I couldn’t do it. Nor would I enjoy spending the winnings. Emotionally I just can’t do it.

If you can, then you are a heartless money grabbing twat…fair play -:)
 
Going to be an emotional rollercoaster tomorrow night, I believe city can win it but by fuck it’s going to mess with my multi personalities:)
 
Real were poor against Chelsea away, I'm really hoping it's that team that turns up at the Etihad but you just know it won't be.
Chelsea had loads of chances in both matches but just have shit strikers who couldn't hit the proverbial cow's arse. Huge fucking performance needed tomorrow and I'm sure we'll get it. Come on City!

Does not offer anything offensively. Good at pressing and keeping possession, but no goal threat. Madrid's front three work better than our front three .
