Throughout most of the afternoon ALL pundits were only talking about Brighton equalising. The silence of depression on City's 3rd was deafening.
Pleased to see we did our job and forced City all the way. Pity it wasn't enough but at least we gave them a fright unlike the rest of the PL who just sat in a corner whimpering.
Are you though? Complete 50:50 for me in a one off game. Plus you have already beaten an English team on the way which helps.
Yeah, but they weren't very good (I think that is how it goes when Spurs beat them - or is it "they are past it" ?? - can never recall) .
Not for me but the media bullshit etc...you've already won it according to some That's our team talk sorted
Your playing one of Europe's elite so of course will be seen as underdogs. Not to mention the pts difference in the lge. Its definitely an advantage for you for sure
One one Europe's elite? You won it in 2005 when was it before then? TDK videos that's when We beat the team that just finished above you in the league mate Don't get me wrong...you are the better performing team across the season but media already jizzing themselves
yeah, hopefully starting off on the front foot, I knew the start would be a disaster before a ball was kicked, we had a complete first XI overhaul, Arnie & Noble were the only real hold overs. I though it would continue, but we could see that we were starting to gel, what really ****ed us was Balbuena getting injured. Diop gets the plaudits, but Balbuena is the cog in the machine that makes the defence work properly imo. It's not so much the away games, it's the not turning up to the **** in the league that is our real achilles, Pellegrini has to sort out that out so we play agianst them with the same intensity we show when we play the top 6.
