Rival watch

[remembercolinlee]

This is now a win win as far as I am concerned.
Liverpool do not go through and it is bottle job heaven
City don't go through and it makes a mockery of the genius manager...£450m to get to the 1/4 finals of the CL

Still, Liverpool haven’t played anyone decent in the CL as of yet, so this is no surprise....

I was just thinking the same thing.
I hope it’s the former. It would be ****ing hilarious!

This wouldn't be happening if Mourinho was their manager

I meant both teams

I don't know, you might get three goals.

Between the two matches...

If it goes to penalties.

I'm watching a match I want both sides to lose

Tough night to be a utd fan

 

[Citizen Kane]

Why does the ref look really familiar?

And can the Pool fans please stop ****ing booing and whistling you're not ****ing Lazio.

Oh, I dunno. Finally, they get to see some football.

Felix Brych. One of the top German refs and he's been around for quite a while.
He was in charge of our game in Turin. Did the final last season, too. Seems to get a lot of English teams, for some reason.

Amazed Pep hasn't made more changes. Zero plan B.

Liverpool have scored a goal which was offside;' City have just had an onside goal disallowed.
3-0 could be 2-1

I've been saying all season that, if the chasing pack hadn't all conspired to give up way too much ground by November, his refusal to rotate the squad even for the cups or Champions League dead rubbers would have caught up to City by now.

It'll not be their fault, of course.

Mourinho parks the bus. Scousers smash it up before the game.
Equally valid tactical decisions, apparently.

yeah but will they stop moaning about not being allowed to foul Kane and Lamela?
will they feck!

 

[yossarian]

i hope our boys are paying attention tonight. We should play Moura against this City side.

 

[Citizen Kane]

3-0 FT

I'm happy with that result. Would love Pool to progress as it'll add more fixtures to their season and they'll be taken apart by the more savvy teams in the competition. Can you see them beating Bayern? Me neither.

Fraudiola once again shown up as an extremely limited tactician who only has one style of play and if it goes to plan hoorah but if it doesn't they look no better than we did under AVB.

And Raheem Sterling is such a limited footballer. He has effectively built a top-level career feeding off the scraps of his superiors.

 

[remembercolinlee]

not a single attempt on target in a whole match...great piece of tactical genius from pep

 

[Roo]

You’d have thought that at some point city would have had a shot from distance when trying to walk it into goal wasn’t working. Jesus and Sane marked out of the game for 90 minutes, yet still they kept feeding it out wide to Sane who looked to play it into Jesus everytime but couldn’t. So predictable.
Pep had no plan B, despite all that money accomplishing that squad. Embarrassing.

You do know that parked bus has scored just 2 goals less than however you see your team playing

Oh, and sits higher in the league
