Spurs set pieces have been piss poor. City have only had a few but looked far more dangerous.

Pep is even more of a fraud than he is bald

by Firenze Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:49 pm

for as comfortable as Spurs look they aren't doing much in the final third

just whipping in balls to Kane that end up comfortable for the City defense ffs

by jibers Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:49 pm

Another big European game where Kun Scrubguero flops. Literally does nothing if he cant get the usal tap in and shoots from daft ranges.

by El Gunner Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:50 pm

City will get more chances in the second half.

by RealGunner Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:50 pm

Kane is an exceptional long passer. You won't believe it when you see him but some of the passes and cross field balls he comes out with are ridiculous.

Not particularly a good thing either as the urgency should be with them.

If this ends 0-0 it's not a good result for Spurs at all.

Onoy comfortable thing for City has been Spurs ridiculous set pieces. Everything else has City shaken. They keep making so many fouls and the fullbacks are getting torn. Another ref would have sent off Fernandinho.

by Firenze Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:55 pm

nah I think Spurs are having a lot of the ball around the City box but they just aren't forcing even a half chance with it, quite wasteful really

agree that they really need something from the game tonight as Pep surely won't play like this at home

by rincon Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:57 pm

Pep is not trying to play like this. He got outdone by Pochettino. Before the penalty they looked like usual City. Then the momentum shifted, the game settled and Spurs had a better plan. They haven't created so many clear chances but they totally stifled City, which is a great way to start a tie.

by rincon Tue Apr 09, 2019 8:58 pm

Let's see how the team comes out. Pep needs to calm his players down.

by RealGunner Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:10 pm

Pep buying Mahrez for 60m needs to be investigated

by rincon Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:16 pm

Kane out and it looked bad. RIP Spurs

by Firenze Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:16 pm

Pep's face when Kane was limping off

he knows it's over ffs

by Firenze Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:17 pm

Llorente got this

by RealGunner Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:22 pm

can't believe how average City have been.

by Nishankly Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:24 pm

City need to win this so that Spurs give a fight in the weekend

by Firenze Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:38 pm

SONALDOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

by RealGunner Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:38 pm

Son what a goal!

by Jay29 Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:39 pm

Nice of City to let Son turn and get a shot away.

I've been really disappointed by them tonight. All their forwards look off.

by RealGunner Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:40 pm

I thought Sane was injured...he is on the bench ffs

Mahrez flopping his way to 80th minute now.

by Jay29 Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:42 pm

Mahrez has been doing his best Sanchez impression by cutting inside and lumping crosses into the box all game.

by Jay29 Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:48 pm

Two mins to go and NOW Pep brings on Sane and De Bruyne.

What is it with him and away CL games?

by Doc Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:53 pm

It's how Pep always gets these weird, wonky ideas every time he passes the r16.

by Firenze Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:56 pm

Fully deserved for Spurs too. Still think City beat them at home, but my god were they shit tonight.

by Unique Tue Apr 09, 2019 9:56 pm

city again blowing up in the late stages. @city fans :coffee:
