    Goals goals goals surely, Thiago Silva is the only defender on the pitch 😊


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,450 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    Gotta fancy City with the lack of proper defenders for PSG tonight. I just can't see how they are going to stop City from scoring at least three tonight with that team.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,987 ✭✭✭mikeym


    Should be an exciting match.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,790 ✭✭✭Bret Hart


    3-2 City.

    If Blanc does not out 'tactify' Pelegrini then I can't really rate him all that highly, still has a lot to prove in the management game.

    I think you are underrating Pellegrini there, been a top manager for a long time now.

    I wouldn't rate Blanc that highly personally and one game isn't going to change my mind regardless of the result.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 677 ✭✭✭vidor


    I know they don't like the Champions League, but why?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,292 ✭✭✭GreNoLi


    Pellegrini has been a top manager for years and I like him but nowadays he's been found wanting more often than not.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,583 ✭✭✭NoviGlitzko


    I'm a United fan and hope City batter PSG. I ****ing hate them and their egotistical manager and players.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,552 ✭✭✭✭Utopia Parkway


    McManaman not impressed with the home fans. Just spent a minute slating them.

    PSG purring at the moment, moving the ball about very slickly.

    The day I give a flying fcuk what that *beep* sayswill be a cold day in hell.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,210 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    Midfield is so congested here. Very cagey game. Looks like City are hoping to sit back and frustrate PSG and hit them on the break. I know they are not the ones chasing the tie but a bit dangerous to let them have so much of the ball.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,136 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Navas has been a major letdown for City since signing thankfully


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,032 ✭✭✭tastyt


    Rabiot and motta are way too casual on the ball, always likely to lose it in stupid positions. Veratti is massive loss.

    And aurier is brain dead.

    What standard are you applying here? In the Champion's league they have been beaten both years in the knockout stages by Barcelona. If you get beat by one of the elite three(Barca, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich) in Europe I think you've done quite well in the competition.

    He won the league title the first year he was there.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,032 ✭✭✭tastyt


    Aurier you ****ing dope


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,150 ✭✭✭✭LuckyGent88


    Clear pen and yellow card


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 13,224 ✭✭✭✭SantryRed


    Jesus that's a poor pen.

    Woah,didn't expect that.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,292 ✭✭✭GreNoLi


    OMG Aguero, pathetic from psg in the first place, there for the taking.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 39,450 ✭✭✭✭eagle eye


    What was Aguero doing there, actually he looked a bit like the deer in the headlights before he took it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,415 ✭✭✭RoryMac


    Keeper lucky to stay on the pitch but awful penalty


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,725 ✭✭✭✭blueser


    :(


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,500 ✭✭✭Drexel


    Worst penalty I've seen in a while.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 26,210 ✭✭✭✭Strumms


    ****... That wasn't even close... A foot wide. Madness that could have been the tie right there. Defo a penalty, like to see it again though as regards the card. First impressions was red all day long.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,456 ✭✭✭astonaidan


    Christ terrible penalty from Kun, Trapp never should have gone the ball was going away from goal

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,183 ✭✭✭✭martingriff


    That was one of the worst penalties I have seen well ever. Not as bad as that one from Arsenal


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,032 ✭✭✭tastyt


    PSG think they are a lot better than they are, trying to play everything from the back and constantly losing it


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Aguer-d'oh!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53,262 ✭✭✭✭GavRedKing


    He should have been sent off anyway psg poxed not to be down to 10 and a goal down.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,633 ✭✭✭✭murpho999


    That was one of the worst penalties I have seen well ever. Not as bas as that one from Arsenal

    Really, I have seen a lot worse.

    Charlie Adam, league cup final springs to mind.

    Agree.

    Even straight through on goal a penalty an red card is harsh for a genuine attemp to win the ball I think.

    Sly, nasty one from Cavani there.

    Say it was yellow as there appeared to be players around and he could be a bit of an angle but ya I thought red

    Or Liverpool's penalties against us at Wembley. A dreadful set.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,398 ✭✭✭✭Turtyturd


    Wouldn't be surprised to see Aguero go off with an embarrassment injury.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Was waiting for this ffs

    Reason why I said 1 of the worst. Did not see adams but heard it was bad. Those penalties where they go stuttering up are horrible looks cheeky when come off but pathetic when not

    Edit: Had not seen your video when I commeted


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,527 ✭✭✭Masala


    Good to see Fernando putting last week behind him. Bossing midfield and doing well


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,292 ✭✭✭GreNoLi


    Ref not letting the game flow enough.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,342 ✭✭✭✭That_Guy


    Bad few minutes for Aguero. Missed penalty and now off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 21,656 ✭✭✭✭Mushy


    Think yellow was right call. Aguero was on his way down with a slip anyway. 100% penalty, dunno why keeper went with his legs.

    Harsh or not it's still a straight red as the rules go.. I'm a United fan so no horse in this race but if Trapp hadn't taken him down he would have scored and certainly had a clear opportunity to do so at worst.

    i dont think intent comes into it . a foul that prevents a clear goal scoring opportunity is a red card , i think


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 43,028 ✭✭✭✭SEPT 23 1989


    Why didn't he hit it first time

    I think the ref gave yellow as he was heading wide and there was psg players coming round the back to cover. Fair enough I think.

    In saying that I expected him to produce a red

    Agreed. Kun would have buried that if he hadn't been brought down. Should have been a red card.
