Defo they chucked things at Jack when he stared them down but were off target. Sums up their night really , wait… they didn’t even have any shots off target either !

Just coz they are called young boys fc doesn’t mean they’re juvenile and can get away with it.

Police were absolute cunts last night! Stood by and watched their fans launch all sorts, set off fireworks and smoke bombs,held aloft and done fuck all! One of ours wrongly launched something straight back at them, and 4 of the twats marched in to 111 and physically manhandled him straight out!

Saw that mate, we're easy targets that's why. I said that to one of the coppers escorting that City fan out, he just said " go away"

Anybody else thoroughly unimpressed with that European — or maybe I should say Germanic? — style of supporting your club? Saw it again last night, didn't we.
It's just got nothing whatsoever to do with what's going on out on the pitch. I much prefer support that's organically linked to what's actually happening. It fades, it comes again stronger. Like waves.
That way of chanting that the commentators were ecstatic about has just got a sort of Nuremberg Rallies feel to it, to me. The way they were dressed, too! Football support choreographed by Leni Riefenstahl…

Self serving and performative
It’s for themselves, not the team

From BBC Sport page:

Ederson completed all 32 of his passes, the 32nd time he’s ended a game with 100% passing accuracy for City. Only three goalkeepers since 2003-04 have attempted more passes in a Champions League game while completing all of them (one of those was Ederson against Feyenoord in September 2017 – 33/33).

Outstanding.

God, the group stage is dull

Won’t exist next season.

So you’d deny the lesser teams the opportunity to play against some of the best?
Would you have thought that when City were one of the ‘poorer”' teams and fighting to ‘sit at the big table?
The only way they get better (unless they’re Trafford United) is to play and play and play. JMHO
