Kompany is just as important to City.

PSG just not good enough.

PSG was shitty. No Verratti, no party. No Matuidi, Thiago Motta injured and out of form... No Pastore. Too much. Stupid tactic with 5 defenders by Blanc (never tried before). The worst game i've never see from this team. A shame. City is worst than PSG but they have De Bruyne, amazing player. Real/Atletico or Bayern will **** them.

It would be interesting to see City get hammered by Bayern with Guardiola feeling conflicted about how to react....:pep:

Guardiola would want to win this at all costs, a possible CL win would redeem his whole last 3 years of work.
He will also secretly want to eliminate City from CL, as it would make his job there harder if the players are not hungry anymore and if he gets constantly compared to CL winning Pellegrini, just like people nowadays compare him with Heynckes.

Both games really were abysmal. Atleast PSG could say that they had their whole midfield injured or suspended.

We have no excuse. It's a shame. Injured, suspension or whatever. City is absolutely nothing. Laurent Blanc is the worst coach of this competition. What he did yesterday.... We never played with 5 defenders ... Players don't understand the tactic .. They were lost on the pitch. It's was awful. 4 1/4 in row, 0 semi-finals, it's too much. Blanc will be sacked or Nasser is really stupid. We have no direction since the departure of Leonardo. Our chance is our young players : Verratti, Marqui, Aurier, Kurzawa, Rabiot, Lucas. They are good, Verratti is a top 10 player, but if we continue on this way, he will ask to join Barca or Real.

Would be real fucking great if Atletico or City could win the CL. As boring and uneventful of a final as it would be I would be delighted if it was City vs Atletico.

If it comes down to a Real/Bayern final I won't even watch it.

We lost against a shity team. I can't understand why.

Because PSG are overrated in France, like English teams are overrated in England. Just because you have players like Veratti and Ibra that doesn't automatically put you in the same bracket as Juventus and Atletico, never mind Barca, Real and Bayern. The players are so meek off the ball it's like they think they can just turn up and pass the opposition to death. That might work in Ligue 1 but it won't work at this end of the Champions League. You didn't set the world alight against a comically bad mid-table Chelsea side so it shouldn't be that much of a surprise that City could sneak past you if you're not on your game.

Lack of competition in France doesnt help either.

And Blanc is an idiot. I have no idea how or why he thought his formation last night would work.

This is a nightmare of a matchup. Seeing Cristina's and Muller's face on one pitch playing for CL would be terrible.

City isn't winning shit with those 3 teams as potential opponents.

Actually.... I hate the fans amongst us who predicted a CL semis among Barca-City-Wolfsburg-Benfica. Good job jinxing the bunch :angry:

I almost crashed my car when I looked at the Barca score of 0-2 on the way to class. (had my phone in cup holder, glancing at the screen every so often).
We looked as if we miss 'a fit Xavi'

Anyone but Real Madrid win the Champions League this year please. . . . . . Bayern look shaky. I can't believe that Atletico could really be the only option at stopping Real Madrid.
