Champions League gameweek 3

2 mins added time...Just shows how arbitrary they are...lol.... There was like 10 min delay for the red card...
 
All things considers this is a worse performance than Celtic in the nou camp. They have been absolutely chronic.

They can count themselves lucky that there was only 2minutes added , which I don't understand given how long it took between bravo getting sent off and the free kick being taken.
 
Ok the camera has to stop zooming on Pep, I'm starting to feel bad for him but I don't want to :lol:
 
United would have given Barca more of a game tonight than City, they've been awful. Really poor tactically from Pep, they should have adapted after the red card
 
Pep getting shafted by a spanish giant... sounds vaguely familiar. :nervous:
 
City with a full strength team, Barca with most of their defenders injured.

... And that's how you beat a Pep team. Utterly outclassed.

feck off Citeh.
 
City did great for 50 minutes or so, problem is Barça has the biggest margin of error of all teams imo. Even Madrid and Bayern are far behind them.
 
So yeah, the team which is going to run away with the title is being schooled by Barca. :rolleyes:

To be fair, 4-0 is flattering.

Some better finishing and belief would have seen City score a few goals. They created a good few chances without Agüero.

But there is a vast difference between the top 3 teams in Spain and the rest. I'd throw Bayern in there with them as well.
 
Vital possession stats?
Hargreaves just said Pep will probably be disappointed.
Yes Owen. Yes he will
 
If City are the best team in England, our league is so far behind this lot its unreal, despite the fortunes being spent.

Also, I wonder if there will be extensive discussion of Pep's tactical blunder of not playing Aguero from the start??
 
Pep seems unable to find the right tactics against teams who're better or equal to his own. He doesn't look like a manager who would do well with a lesser team.
 
Guardiola: "Messi can't be stopped." - 0-3, 3:2, 0:4
Heynckes: "I know how to deal with Barcelona." 4:0, 3:0

It's all about attitude.
Tongue halfway in cheek
 
City just make up numbers in Europe each season.

Wonder what their shiek will think? after all he only wants to turn city into an elite European team :lol::lol::lol:
 
One of these days those stupid penalties Neymar takes will cost his team. Just run and smack the ball at goal, it's simple and it's worked well for decades.
 
Pundits can clutch at straws and dress it up as much as they like but the fact is city got beat 4-0 by a Barcelona side not near their best.
