jellydog Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Yowzah! I thought with about 15 minutes to go that City looked tired. Almost immediately they scored two goals. Doesn't get much better than beating Real Madrid away. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing to worry about I wouldn't have thought. Thanks for clarifying, though it IS a CL ban (being appealed) and it is an ongoing PL investigation - You drama queen, you.

Bredbury Blue Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Real 1v2 The Evil Man City, boo! Except for One silly pass and laporte being injured it was really good performance. Better team and deserved win. And a great comeback. And a penalty...a penalty. Pep got it right and all performed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UEFA will use drawings done by the kids from its UEFA Foundation for Children to design the match ball for the 2020 Super Cup. Nice idea and a great initiative. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanwhile in local news my farting council has decided to close our swimming pools for half the day to save money. When they are having to pay for cranes to take the local fatties off to hospital it will all seem worth it. <deleted> stupid morons. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bredbury Blue Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 (edited) XI | Bravo, Walker, Stones, Fernandinho, Zinchenko, Rodrigo, Gundogan, Foden, D Silva (C), Sterling, Aguero. SUBS | Ederson, G Jesus, De Bruyne, Bernardo, Mendy, Mahrez, Otamendi. Don't like that team! 1. Bravo! 2. Out of form Stones. 3. Never like Gundog and Silva together, and with Rodri there's no legs in midfield. Not the best starting XI. Do like Foden starting but reckon he'll be shuffled wide left or right (Where he's less effective). Edited March 1, 2020 by Bredbury Blue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadilo Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Congratulations on winning another trophy. Villa made it a lot more difficult than I imagined but never really looked like they would get back in it apart from the last couple of minutes. That said, tactically they were spot on and set up the o lay way they could. Just stay in the game and try and nick one and see what happens. Nearly worked but would of been unjust. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we went 2-0 up I thought it was curtains but fair do's to Villa, they stuck in there and could have equalised just before the final whistle.

Do like Foden starting but reckon he'll be shuffled wide left or right (Where he's less effective). I didn’t like that team, but I did love Foden in his unusual position for him out wide-right (he played there earlier this season – was it beating ManU in the Semi?). Deserved victory but a spirited display by Villa made us sweat a little. We seem to struggle this season to put games we dominate to bed. Foden was excellent wasn’t he, the best player on the pitch by miles. How he cushioned one long pass with the outside of his foot, and how he rode tackles, was exceptional. Rodri was 2nd best – he had to be as Silva and Gundog weren’t at their best. We carried Silva, Aguero and Sterling 2nd half and I was crying out for the rubba-dubs to come on, and when they did we were far better. Bravo!, Bravo. He saved the day, so I was wrong with my earlier comment, and he helped us get over the line with that outstanding save late on. Nice floated pass from Rodri, lovely awareness and head back by Foden and typical Kun finish for the 1st. Rodri’s 2nd was reminiscent of Laporte’s headed goal in the title clincher at Brighton last season. Their goal was a beauty - the less said about John ‘Timber!!!’ Stones the better - and was similar to Jamie Mackie’s goal for QPR in the ‘Agueeeeroo!’ game. I’m sure it was a good game for the neutral to watch but it was a bit frustrating for a City fan. And what a cracking weekend with Liverpool and Spurs losing, while ManU could only manage a draw.

champers Posted March 2, 2020 Share Posted March 2, 2020 How on earth are you going to get shot of Stones? City have over inflated the transfer market by paying silly money for him and Mendy & Walker. It ends up with Harry Maguire costing £80 mill. Just in case you think I am biased against City, I thought Tyrone Mings was as bad. How he won an England cap escapes me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
