watching greatness

 

[blue by birth]

Absolutely brilliant performance from every player in blue..we were so much in control it was like a training session.
Great goal from Bernie but Razs topped it.
Really enjoyed it even though we took our foot off their throat in the second half.
No injuries which is a bonus.
Great support from the City fans and their fans were very good too.

And they applauded sterling’s goal.

I love that sort of thing.

I remember when Arsenal turned us over 5-0 at Maine Road with Henry and Vieira in their pomp and we gave them due respect. It was just like watching a team from another planet, which I'm sure is how Sporting must have felt tonight.

Job done. Very very professional. Game was won soon as the first goal went in, special praise for both kdb and mahrez for putting that away, could easily have just stopped and assumed he was offside. Basically took the last 30 minutes off and was well earned. Gives us the chance to rest whoever needs it in the second leg. Building some good form to take into a few tricky games, everytime we smash a side it demoralised those trying to chase us.

The Boys in Blue didn’t give in. They fought to the end. Thank you City, thank you lads, thank you fans. You showed’em, you showed ‘em all.



What a game, what a team. I’m on cloud 27!!! If only I was younger and had been able to go over there to watch.

 

[Zin 'messiah' Zimmer]

Momentum, city, sweep all before us, we can get over the line this year, we are head and shoulders above anything out there, just believe!

 

[14aguero]

Heading into the second half, five goals up. Lovely.

 

[Blue and true]

Remarkable performance. I'm sure Pep and the lads will maintain that standard for the second leg.

 

[Lavinda Past]

I'm struggling to see what's wrong with that?

Some of our fans have lost the plot when it comes to the media. Laughable.

 

[Tangled up in blue.]

5-0 is a dangerous score
