Champions League

[Barcaman]

City gonna crumble at Bernabeu.

Crap. I thought those Varane blunders were in front of empty stands.

That one was empty. First leg in Spain was with packed Bernabeu.

[MENTION=30154]Temptation[/MENTION] This is gold

Makes sense as that line serves as an excuse for him to carry on his delusions. Also helps in self consolation purposes after being constantly cucked....

 

[Birdy]

And is it fairly sure Walker will be back?

That can make a difference
Vinicius goal never happens with Walker in

You're just setting yourself up for a Walker blunder. It's not like he never makes any.

That's different. Whole City backline makes blunders.
But losing so easily a runner in open space never happens to Walker

This.

Whenever I see Walker he often makes silly mistakes leading to dangerous situations. Sure he has his great recovery speed but no guarantee he wouldn't have simply passed the ball to Benzema for a goal or something instead

All Man City defenders are genius blunder makers. Every single one is truly gifted in this area.

Just a mentality/inability to cope with pressure thing.

KO tourneys are a different beast to league games with being under a lot of pressure in the moment and Man City still haven't always managed to cope well with it after all these years.

 

[Horatio]

Well...if we are going to assume Pep perfected his bottling art we should be rest assured and expect him to bottle back-to-back in the final.

Why bottle semi final if you can do it in final?

 

[FC B]

What a disgrace. If city can't do it there is 0 percent chance Madrid loses the finals no matter who plays them

Pretty much spot on.
If City chokes in the return leg its Madrid's trophy.

 

[Morten]

In a final anything can happen, would fancy our chances there, even against Liverpool.

I still have a hard time seeing us progressing against City over 180 minutes though, can "clutchness" alone really take us to the final? Cause football-wise it's not really that close tbh.

 

[Horatio]

Why such little faith in Liverpool? They DO have that mental fortitude that some claim Man City are lacking.
And they also have plentiful players that played 2 finals before. So pressure won't be as high as lets say if it were City in final.

I think Madrid owns their souls after first horror show though. PTSD might happen to Salah and his arm.

 

[Iniesta Ultra]

I hope RM win the tie with Benz and Modric scoring.
