Alli has been poor
He just went offWould love to see that.
As it should, never understood the hate defending as part of game gets, like its cancer of football. Always found it weird when people see good/great defending as easy, hell proper working bus parking isnt easy.
I saw that Foden and Toure are startingCity are losing 1-2 without de bruyne. They're playing almost full strength (Jesus for Aguero).
Basel have been good. Really high pressing. I've been impressed, won't be enough though but fair play to themCity are losing 1-2 without de bruyne. They're playing almost full strength (Jesus for Aguero).
Yeah, the ‘being objective’ tag.Living up to your tag there...
Memes write themselves
It's quite incredible when you think about it, to do what they're doing on their budget. They should be everyone's 2nd team yet most opposition fans revel in their misery. Mainly due to their obnoxious fanbase.
Not even close to full strenght. Three starters, tops.
Because it would make me laughWhy?
Playing an almost full strength lineup is not the same as playing full strength though. I'm not watching the game, but I'd imagine that City isn't putting in a 100% effort.City are losing 1-2 without de bruyne. They're playing almost full strength (Jesus for Aguero).
Anything that keeps the ball out of your own net is good defence.Parking the bus in not great defense.
Go check it yourself, you lazy!Living up to your tag huh? So, give me City's starting 11 bruh.
It might work out yes but I still don't get it. You definitely need luck as well, Tottenham has had some excellent chances in the last few minutes and are dangerous in almost every attack. You are gifting the control of the game away to your opponent, basically saying "come at us" instead of dominating yourself - if you keep possession for two minutes, it's two minutes they can't score in. Now it's praying that no ball accidently will fall for a Tottenham player in a good spot. I know they are one of the best defensive unites in the world but still, I think it bears more risk than carrying on like how they were playing before.If they hold out they win. Great defensive unit, so possible. If they concede they might like their chances in extra time or penalties. I think it makes sense.
Parking the bus in not great defense.
Decisive moments they switched off.How on earth are spurs on the verge of going out, they’ve been by far the best team in both legs.
Really? What's so special about Mourinho's recent Champions League record?
He choked to a 10 man PSG last time he was in the knock out rounds.
Son is quality. He doesn't have weaker foot which gives him so much advantage, wish more players improve their weaker foot, especially attackers.
How long till Spurs start to kick Juve players?
Bravo, Stones, Danilo, Yaya, Foden are others who aren't first choice and then there is Bernardo and Zinchenko who would be replaced by Sterling and Mendy when fit.City are losing 1-2 without de bruyne. They're playing almost full strength (Jesus for Aguero).
Reverse PikeWhat is Alli doing on the pitch?
