RedBull Salzburg v City (1700hrs BT sports)

[Neville Kneville]

If that was anything to go by, we're better off out. Better teams would tear us apart.

We've played better teams.

 

[domalino]

Reminds me of the penalty that Chelsea scored last year that bounced out of the goal and the officials didn't give.

 

[dannyirishblue]

Better off sending them back to u18's before they think that sloppy lazy shite and terrible tactics are acceptable.

 

[MCFC1993]

Out and deservedly so. Players were no where near the level they've been at this season.

However, strange lineup, tactically inept, poor substitutions, poor formation change, piss poor instructions, that should be enough to get rid of Davies on the spot.

 

[Danny_Johnson4]

Davies was a really really poor choice for me as a replacement for Vieira, don't know what the club see in him, he is so old school it is just totally nowhere near in line with the blueprint of the club right now

Give the job to Zabaleta when he retires this season, go on!

 

[MeatHunterrr]

Can't believe someone at the club thought it would be good to go from Patrick Vieira to Simon Davies........

 

[RayCTID]

None of the lads on that showing look ready for our first team just yet.

 

[Mr HJ]

Deserved nothing on that performance. Too many getting caught in possession and really we should have lost before pens. It looks to me that we need a better coach at this level because I cannot see too many of them making the first team and that is poor considering the financial commitment to both the academy facilities and the fact we buy players from all over the world regardless of cost. Perhaps a reality check for some that you get nothing in football without hard work.

 

[ZanteWeatherman]

Always thought these plastic official/linesmen were good for nothing, now I know exactly why they are there............ disgraceful decision. Bollocks even on the playback. (We looked not the best in the second half mind)

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Did little in the half I saw to warrant inclusion in the next round. Very little in the second half that caused their goalie any problems.

It's typical City that the two players who bugger up their pens are two classy performers! I think Grimshaw was not on his line when the Austrian took the kick, but I wonder . . . . . . .?
