Slovan Bratislava (A) | CL | Post Match Thread

Interesting observations mate. On telly it was interesting to see them all smiling and enjoying it around the bench later on. When Weiss was subbed he was really emotional and tearful for some reason which backs up your words about their pride and passion.
Vlad got a great send off from us, which he acknowledged, a few below us were a bit confused by the reception we gave him. Below us the stand seemed to be mostly kids, who engaged with us and just seemed to love it. No faux posturing, no Belgrade Nazi salutes, no Danny Dyers, just sound people there to see City.

Loved it mate.
Loved it.
 
TNT dissing us for only being 2 up after 54 mins.
TNT dissing us for only being 4 up after 80 mins.
You can't win against the Anti-City brigade
 
How many goals has he got for us now….
Was at the game and it’s ridiculous the amount of times, we went sideways,backwards and took way too many touches, when the simple ball was on to Haaland!!! Through the middle or over the top, against this poor team, he could have got a lot more in the 60 minutes that he was on the pitch :)
 
Missed the target from six yards in the first five minutes
The 1 v 1 when he hit it straight at the keeper
And a really poor header when he got in front of the defender
Poor Floaty cross , to which he had to generate all the power onto his header!!

Surprisingly, with 2 wide men this was the only cross he got!!!
 
It's called champions league. They won there league played 3 qualifying rounds. They deserve to be there. Get a grip.
these comments are so annoying, why is arsenal in the champions league then if slovan don’t deserve to be. wtf did arsenal win?

also, about the new format, there would be 2 games against them instead of just one in the old cl, so double the moaning.
 
There are 36 teams in this format which is 8 weeks of 18 games totalling 144 games.

The old league format was 12 matches per each of the 8 leagues totalling 96 matches.

So a 50% increase in television revenue for the greedy fuckers at UEFA.

I wonder what their next version of the so called “Champions” league will be?
... plus there's the 16 playoff matches to decide the last 16, so that makes 160
 
I did expect a bit more from Bratislava to be honest, but we remained professional throughout, and handled them well .. so i'm not gonna criticise anybody in our team, and fair play to the City fans who travelled to Slovakia for a Tuesday night game .... although we could undoubtedly have had more goals, i, for one, am more than happy with a 4-0 away win in Europe.

At the end of the day you can only try to beat what's put in front of you, and City came through the game well.

The point for UEFA is that the Slovenian league and SB are rewarded for their FOUR knockout rounds to get there, and CL money is spread amongst more teams and leagues.

Sadly, for the rest of the Slovakian league, the biggest club by a country mile gets richer & stronger.
i don’t know if it’s exactly the same everywhere but every club in the croatian league received money just because dinamo qualified for the ucl.
