I actually thought some of our passing first half was sloppy, we took our chances I thought sporting looked half decent first half.

Great overall performance a couple of thunder bastards ,happy days

So did Pep.

I can’t see what the problem was with the commentary. They praised us throughout.

Post match. Ex rags lauding us in the studio.

Problem is you are obviously not insane enough to be a proper blue.

Rag:-)

Makes the second leg irrelevant, might enquire about a refund .

We are getting spoilt. Spoilt.

Good grief, that was fantastic. Great performance by the team, somewhat greedily I am very happy to have kept a clean sheet too. Impressed by their fans, all appeared to have stayed. Can't see that the Etihad would have been that full had we been 5 down. In fact it probably won't be that full if we win 5 - 0 in the reverse. Good goals too.

They must have a decent tram system in Lisbon!

A brilliant performance. A few sloppy passes early on, but we were ruthlessly clinical when it counted.

I felt sorry for Sporting at times, but it is what it is, as we've been there ourselves. What goals from Bernardo & Sterling!

My one gripe is at 60 & 70 minutes I wanted more substitutions to rest players, protect them from injuries & suspensions, & to give some of the youngsters a run out & a night to remember.

All in all a brilliant night. Let's put it to bed in 2 weeks, & hopefully roll on to the last 8.

Plenty of tickets knocking about for the home leg no doubt.
