Another goal thanks to Kompany. He is on the roll.

City are soooooooo shite.
Should of been four by now.
Playing two up front against them is crazy.

Can I use this moment to suggest this is WHY Chelsea and Jose palsy as we do.
Liverpool, City and Arsenal fans love to tell us how wrong it is, but here we have a team going 'toe to toe' and playing the 'right way' and looks whats happening, we would win this game 1-0.

People laughing at City - keep in mind they're still substantially better than us at present.
Not very long ago we were considered on the same level as Barca, if not above it. Behold the power of underinvestment.

fecking hell 
Nearly three.
This is too easy.
Barca are taking the piss.
They'll go nicely with the funereal atmosphere
Clive Tyldesley has gone into 'exhibition' mode with that tone of voice
Almost 3!
Barca are completely dominating this. No idea why pelligrini went with 2 strikers. Too easy for Barcelona.

Indeed.
I can only imagine if these are playing against us. Would we fare any better?
van Gaal would play with 5 in defense and look better.... City are far too offensiveCity getting killed.
Wonder what Barca would do to us?
To be fair the last person who said that got fired soo hard that he had to leave the country.
This is nuts, it could end up so much more. They look like they're going to score every time they go forward, getting behind so easily.
Still, if these big Spanish clubs had to play proper PL opposition every week - they'd never score so many goals.
Hats off to Clive, he's finally given in with the lying and realised City are not actually in this game.
Pellegrini looks like he's in pain.

City getting their arse handed to them, minute by minute.
Good Lord, that's good football.
Hopefully Louis is watching this and taking notes...

And some thought City would beat Barca
You'll more than likely get the chance to prove that.
I agree though, no one is putting a foot in. With a midfield of Milner and Fernando, I really thought that was going to be the plan.
I don't know about CL football...Trying to figure out do I miss it or not as a United fan...
Plodding through the group stages only to be shat on by the first decent team we meet.....Saves a bit of pain
Not sure the last time we met a decent side and got shat on in the CL (and don't bring up the season under Moyes
).Barcelona footballing philosophy is the best philosophy in my own opinion. Some prefers fast counter attacking approach, but there is no stopping tiki taka when you have players that are great when in ball position. That is why I was pissed when we sold Welbeck and Kagawa last summer.
Great stuff by suarez to get two goals.
Messi is just in a different class though. Genius. What a pass for an almost third goal.

Where's Yaya Toure for this? Subs? Injured?
Silva having to play like poor man's Messi just to get into Barca's half.
You say underinvestment, but last summer we spent more than any other transfer window and yet we're just as bad if not worse than 12months ago.
Yeah, you never see that sort of space in the premier league .. Oh wait
They're the Hazard of football teams.
This Barca team would embarrass United..
Silva is the only City player who's making an effort. Demichelis made some nice tackles too.
So now what do you do if you are City? Park the bus and hope to keep it 2-0, then take your best shot in the 2nd league? Open it up, wide open, attack attack attack, risk giving up 5 goals, but you need to try to get back in it? stick to your plan?
Piszczek off injured after a dirty tackle from Pogba, not even yellow carded for it.
Yea well you ask for getting the d. when you play a fecking midfield duo of 'Octopussy' Fernando and the most boring man alive in his 50s James fecking Milner. On top of that throw a friendly lesbian on the wing and Aguero-Dzeko strikers partnership and just enjoy the show.
Pellegrini's lost them this match.

City getting killed.
Wonder what Barca would do to us?
At least we don't have to find-out for another couple of seasons at least
Fernandinho and Milner at CM. Is that all they have without Toure?
