Real Madrid Vs Manchester City CL In Match Thread

[Manchester_lalala]

Bringing kolarov on makes no sense. We need cover on the right not the left and he is not a left winger and never will be. I'd of put Milner or sinclair on the bench instead of him. He's not a bad left back, just not a left winger.

PEPÉ is a dirty cnut, he knows CT has the better of him.

Champions of England - Still Novices in Europe

Not the best of chants, but anything's got to be better than "We'll score when we want".

Do we throw our hands up during the champs of England bit and bow low during the novice in europe phase?

Ronaldo: "Can you get me in?" to Tevez. :D

In all fairness, I'm more confident as the game goes on. We have done well to soak up the pressure, and size them up. Nothing too gung ho. A lot of teams would have crumbled in that first half.

Happy with 0-0 but wondering why I've been shaking with nerves for most of the first half. We are sometimes passing for the sake of it at the back inviting interceptions and quick closing down. Tevez needs some help too.

 

[Robert Jordan]

Real Madrid = 16 shots
City = 1 shot

Madrid is pressing us very aggressively, we barely keep the ball. The central midfield area is theirs. I painfully feel the lack of a playmaker capable to distribute the ball.
We are not putting enough pressure on the man with the ball.
It is very dangerous that we let Ronaldo to get if 1 vs. 1 situations against Maicon and Kompany.

Ozil still on the bench?
