Champions League 2024-25

[Horatio]

I swear I was surprised to see vini so upbeat on the pitch.

Then just now read article city fans have banner imploring him to cry. That explains it then.

De Bruyne is sooo washed.

He is, but Bernardo is even more IMO...

De Bruyne is sooo washed.

Was thinking about what prime KDB would do to this disorganized Madrid side during the game hahha

Would be a shitshow. But now yeah he's unfortunately finished. Truly sad to see.

 

[HeadElastico]

At least the game was flowing and hardly any fouls, entertaining to watch. Madrid showed glimpses of quality but largely not playing great.

 

[Birdy]

He is, but Bernardo is even more IMO...

Both are oldies by now.
City need new blood, and their oil money have already started buying new blood here and there

Madrid play the same as vs Barca. Lots of chances but fail to score. Difference is that they are not punished on the other end by a weak City.

That was world class by Gvardiol at the goal. Guy is crazy talented.

 

[jaype]

City too slow in build up. Seen a couple of good runs by Haland not picked. Look at RM's defense ffs, just lob it in and Haland will bully them.

We would eat the Ceballos-Camavinga midfield pair alive. Bellingham is a midfielder just on paper.

If I was Carlo, I would add a midfielder at the expense of Mbappe and play Bellingham as false 9 in 2nd half.

I think Madrid played better than vs us. City are also weaker though.

The problem of Madrid is the same old one, they give the ball to their front 3 and they expect them to solve it. But they do have many elite players.

Don't think they had this many chances against us at all. Maybe 1st half in La Liga a few but the only chance missed in Supercopa is that Rodrygo bar before Rapha's 5th goal.

They did. Because City is no transition threat, so they can take it easy if they lose the ball. Against us, that's a suicide.

Not sure about that. They’re just overloading with numbers everywhere cause they know City is weak.

La Liga game too, 90% of those chances were offside

Usual Malvolio shit, who can't accept the huge L he got and still getting on Flick

Some know ball, some don't...

Bellingham is the issue. He's a luxury player with a low workrate.
