Sevilla v City post match thread

I love it when a Plan B comes together!
That it was only 3-1 was the biggest surprise after the first half, Bony, Fernandinho, Fernando, Sterling, Kompany, Otomendi, Navas, Sagna, Yaya, Hart, all had a great night, Kolarov was the only so-so performance.
 
Fernandinho Fernando and Yaya were extremely good. In fact all of them were.

Sevilla were terrible. Six years since they've actually finished in the top four in Spain and you can tell, a poor side in all.

But taken nowt away from us, we made them look as shit as they are.

Pellegrini is really growing on me. From me thinking the man was a tactical fool, he's realised that playing a three man centre mid in big away games is the way forward. This change in his ways might keep him in a job with us for a few more years. If we continue to have proper tactics with discipline and the opposition in mind then I wouldn't want to get rid of him.

Fernando and Fenandinho though, what a pairing and behind Yaya who was very good with his passing and forward thinking play.
 
Without a doubt our best European performance, tactically spot on by Pellers - looked solid whilst looking extremely dangerous against a team who've won 10 in a row at their place in Europe..

Impressive confidence boosting stuff & without some big players.
 
Fortunate to have the game shown live on SBS here and it was one of the better ones for sure.

Despite our nervousness in the back we were solid in defence despite only having one clean sheet in our last twelve which we will have to improve on.

Great attacking display and for once we looked like we could see the game out without any hitches.

This is how we should set up more often home and away so maybe a lesson learnt.
 
The issue with that performance, is what do we do when Silva is fit and De Bruyne starts?

I only ask because that was the best performance I've seen from us in our recent European history.

Outstanding all over the park.

We looked like we had a system and a game plan. That is exactly how we should be playing in Europe and any change to that team in Turin would just be fucking daft.
