Feck sake, City/Arsenal/Liverpool/Chelsea all the cnuts on fire!!
I actually forgot about BelgiumI think I have seen that before.
They were way better tonight.
Nomina sunt odiosa.Don't forget Kevin wanking himself senseless over this win because some posters probably hurt his feelings two weeks ago.
PSG RB with the goal of the night
He was. When they beat us in 2009 he was just some young punk who had only just entered management and took the world by stormWho's young up and comer, Pep?
Barca have been absolute shit 2nd half. Main problem has been getting the ball to their front 3. Couldn't play their normal passing game due to square pegs in round holes and missing key players.
Does anyone know if anyone on here seen this city Barca result coming
They have already been beaten by trash in La Liga this season and conceding. They are not the team they used to be, aside from their attack there is a serious reduction in quality in all positions through aging players and mediocre transfers. They are not 'the best team in the world' by any measure no matter how many time OH keeps saying it.
Both Rakitic and Turan are proven top players who we would have loved to have at United 18 months ago. We would still love to have them now. We are still using Fellaini and a 36 year old in CarrickThat's been a problem for them at times.
They need another midfielder that's great at distribution. Someone like Verratti would be perfect for them.
Rakitic/Turan/Gomes/Rafinha don't cut it when Iniesta's on the wane and Busquets is having a rather sub-par season.
Not even Kevin?Nope. I don't think anyone could hae predicted this. Not even God himself.
Not seen anyone predicting that tbh, shock result. Better luck on the lottery.Does anyone know if anyone on here seen this city Barca result coming
He inherited a better squad of players who were more settled in their identity of playing.This guy guardiola is lightyears ahead of our manager... and I wish I was on the wind up...
They will get burnt out though (the players)yeah, i was thinking that as I watched the 2nd half. By definition the high pressing tap dancing Guardiola Barcelona ended the day after he left. Its been a diminishing fire ever since.
More worrying for us is that City looked a better similarity to the 'Guardiola Barcelona' than Barcelona did, especially in the 2nd half. There pressing and counter attack was frightening and they should have scored 2 more clear goals.
Imagine what this side will be like in after 2 more transfer windows and 12 months more training in his methods
More settled in their way of playing? they gave up under Pellegrini. Also many of their mainstays from recent seasons have hardly featured.....He inherited a better squad of players who were more settled in their identity of playing.
Maybe he is a better manager than Mourinho, but this result does not prove that.

Verrati is another overrated player trading his bit in the French league.That's been a problem for them at times.

Rakitic has been better than Gundogan in recent seasons and is certainly not overrated. Turan had a long time out of football is true.Turan has been shit since his move. He's not that good anymore.
Rakitic is overrated and I've said this for a while now. He would definitely improve us, but there's a lot of better midfielders out there.

Seen it, came away disappointed more times than not.Imagine Hazard & De Bruyne in the same team, Mourinho really fecked up
Not really, we knew barca had key players out and have a shite keeper. City played well the first game till they went down to 10.
