Re: Barcelona 2 - 1 Manchester City
City were poor but that to me was because Barca made them look that way.
In all the hullabaloo about Barca being the worst Barca in a decade they are still a threat to anyone when motivated.
I haven't seen a single game against a big team this season where i came away thinking that's a side that City should be beating.
I don't know what happens to them in La Liga but City losing to them when they are motivated is no disgrace.

Re: Barcelona 2 - 1 Manchester City
Man City should have played like tonight in the first leg.
Either way I think tactically they got it wrong overall. Counter-attacking wise they weren't the best. All they did was retain possession and get nowhere at times. The pressing was inconsistent. They should have pressed similar to how Bayern did last season, not letting Barca into the middle third.

Playing 100% fit Aguero over Dzeko is a mistake but injured Aguero instead of him is a huge mistake. Dzeko is stronger and better in air from all of Barcelona defence. Best City player tonight. The soon he goes to another club the better.

Anyways, he had wrong calls on both sides and should never see a stadium again.
Obviously that was in favour of Barcelona but before that most of his decisions were in favour of Barcelona. It was one wrong but late call. Just as one example not giving a goal in the first half is more important than not giving a penalty in the last 10 minutes with one team in need of three goals. By the way the red card wasn't wrong itself. The not given penalty was the wrong decision.

I don't want to repeat all my posts from the last tie but he's correct. In any case I can understand playing Aguero since you can't bench your best player, but I felt that tactically Negredo was the better option, especially if Sergio was not fit.

"For me, it was a clear penalty,” Kompany told Sky Sports afterwards. “He was in a position to shoot and was caught.
"Over the course of the two games, when there were 11 players on the pitch, there wasn't much between the teams,” Kompany added

We're coming closer to seeing Messi eat a Kebab during a football game.
Huh? The assistant's name is really Cousillas.

Re: Barcelona 2 - 1 Manchester City
WOO HOOO!!! Barca fully in control. Man C bad luck they tried, especially early second half it was tense. Entertaining game and the ref and offside decisions not ridiculous but certainly added to the entertainment value.
Messi bossed the game, Alves goal celebration
Lecott was crap, hes just a little bit better than Demicheshit, just too slow to play vs Messi, poor guy
Man C need to buy a new CB just like Barca in the summer
QF here we come!

Another got a gif of Messi owning Aguero? That was awesome, took the ball off him just like that Aguero disappointing but the first half they couldnt get the ball...

Re: Barcelona 2 - 1 Manchester City
City's pressing was so disorientating bloody hell. Its like one guy decided to press a barca player and 30 second later another guy decides to jog up and join in by that time Barca have already switched play from one wing to another
Never seen a big team press this badly. Nobody was on Messi, the guy had all the time in the world to pick his passes. I don't if it was because Pelle does not rate him anymore or what it was but the guy was getting freedom I have never seen laliga teams give him. Reminds me of schalke against us
There is so much wrong with this City team. Their LB and CB are crap, Yaya and Fernandinho together is not gonna work because both are slow and none is a true DM, they are playing two strikers when they are so slow in midfield and don't have a very good RW
If they tweak some stuff for next season they will have a better chance of progressing. I suspect they will go all out for Pepe again but he will be 32 next season so he isn't going to solve anything for them in the long run. I have no idea why they aren't after Cacktrao he could solve that lb conundrum and add a little bit of defensive prescence

Disappointing. You need a top manager to lead a new (but strong) team into Europe. Shitty doesn't have that.
