Poor player. Some how he has managed to win domestic titles and played for Real, City and Juve.
Champions League Round of 16 (18th Feb - 8th Aug)
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Yeah, but i'm saying, they lost on away goals, and the initial penalty was a killer
Now we're talking.
Two awful mistakes made the difference tonight though, City can't count on that happening again.
Oh yeah true.
Lyon haven’t played an official match in 3 months and still advanced. Nuts
I fear my boys may join you guys tomorrow if we aren’t careful
No they don't. Players like Bonucci, De Ligt, Alex Sandro, Ramsey, Rabiot would easily get into the Lyon side. Not even taking into account Cristiano or Dybala. Juventus are bad but they're not midtable Ligue 1 level.
Or a boon
His football at Napoli was great. But it took a few seasons to implement, along with some players who really bought into the system.
As I told you of the top teams Juve are easily the worst of the bunch.
La Liga is shite and even then I bet Juve get 4th place there under Sarri and this laughable Juve team.
On paper team Is better but man they do not play like it at all.
In reality though Lyon Midfield is miles ahead of Juve. Juve midfield is just dreadful.
The only reason this was even a close game was because you have Ronaldo in your side who is the most clutch performer in the sport but you can't keep relying on that.
2 seasons of the same shite.
2020 will go down as the worst year ever If City win the Champions League.......
End this fecking year now!
End this fecking year now!
I can't believe how much space KDB got
I feel for Madrid a bit cause I like Giorno, but when a midfield hasn't got the pace to match Gundogan and Rodri they are never getting into the same timezone nevermind near KDB. They were in a lot of ways the perfect game for us, they're so slow in there. I reckon I could beat Casemiro, Kroos and Modric over 100m these days. Tidy players but very one dimensional and easily pressed tonight. Serious lack of pace outside the forwards in that team.
Ya I know it was a "dramatic answer" after the shite I've just seen.
What I will say is Lyons football as a whole is better then anything I have seen Juve do all season and the Lyon midfield is comfortably better as well.
Juve should of taken care of business but when you have a coach like sari what can you expect.
I was talking about on paper. Barca are shite too right now despite the squad on paper. Juve need a new midfield
I dont have to defend him the man did his job for them 2 seasons in a row.The lengths you'll go to in order to defend Ronaldo
A worse squad than Lyon
On paper yes Juve is better I am talking about how they actually play.
You are on a wum surely?
This Lyon side finished 7th in Ligue 1
City were seriously impressive I thought. Made that Madrid side look very ordinary.
Madrid and Ronaldo out. We should get a live feed to Simeone's house right now, they've just won the Champions League
Yeah but they had the chances to score 2 goals anyways. They're really just a great side. In single game, among the best i've ever seen still
As I clarified I meant how they play and not on paper/ was a knee jerk reaction to them losing.
OBVIOUSLY Juve has a better squad.
So City has to face Bayern/Barca or Atletico/RBL if they win against Lyon?
City are a good side but they were better last season.
2020 will go down as the worst year ever If City win the Champions League.......
End this fecking year now!
Reverse from last year. We just have to sadly accept that the two best teams in europe are Liverpool and City. It sucks to say. Luckily Pool messed up vs Atletico and we can hope that City does the same.
Congratulations to City, a well deserved tie. It was not the game I expected, neither tactically nor physically.
I would have liked to see Valverde from the start, or at least earlier substitutions.
I did not understand very well why he did not give minutes to Vinicius

Bayern are a decent side and City can't defend so I think they're still favourites.
They’ll face Bayern or Barca or Napoli in the semi final.
Atletico are on the other side of the bracket
And I thought 2012 was bad with Chelsea / City winning the big trophies.
I still have hope that either Bayern or Atletico can beat City.

When they had already won it.
happy that Ronaldo left the competition.
I think Maxence Caqueret is the most French name I've ever heard
That Juve side really doesn't create much without Dybala. Really missed him today.
Lyon finished 7th in the French league and beat the Champions of Italy.
If Lyon have a better squad than Juventus (not saying they do), then what does that say about the Serie A?

Congratulations to Lyon who I thought had no chance due not playing for a long time and must've been rusty.
Well at least one upset happened tonight.
Nice to see Rudi Garcia doing well again. I've always thought of him as a very decent manager but perhaps he underachieved a bit at Roma.
Good to see some fresh faces in QFs with Lyon, Atalanta and RB Leipzig.
