UCL Round of 16 - First Legs - Feb 18 - 26

[jojojo]

Lack of concentration. Red card and it's game over.

 

[The Taurean]

 

[17 Van der Gouw]

I now owe god a visit to church each week for the next ten years.

Thou asketh, thou receiveth.

 

[Shane88]

Within milliseconds, Townsend making excuses: "Was Navas fouled?"

 

[Snipers Breath]

Demechilles is dreadful.

 

[That'sHernandez]

 

[SilentWitness]

Idiot, shouldn't have tackled him. Being a goal down isn't the end of the world, being a goal down and a man down is bad.

 

[Raven Blade]

1-0 Messi!!

Demichelis

 

[dumbo]

Can't blame him, but that was suicide. You're better off letting him score.

 

[holyland red]

very nice

 

[RonaldoVII]

Might as well have let Messi score the 1v1 and keep it 11v11

 

[JonDahl]

It's over. Please put 5 more past these.

 

[The Mitcher]

MESSI MESSI MESSI!!!!!

 

[Mrs Smoker]

Excellent!

 

[Earthquake]

Ha, Demichellis!

 

[Snowjoe]

Away goals ahoy.

 

[Zen86]

lol, they're clutching at straws with that Navas thing beforehand.

 

[pauldyson1uk]

that was never a foul before, he threw himself to the ground

 

[RooneyLegend]

Oh well, that was fun while it lasted.

 

[Getsme]

 

[Robbie Boy]

Demechelis has been a massive liability for City. I was shocked they didn't go for another CB during the summer.

 

[FCBarca]

Idiot, shouldn't have tackled him. Being a goal down isn't the end of the world, being a goal down and a man down is bad.

Yeah, never really understand the thinking in those situations. From behind, against Messi? It's always going to be late and easy red card call to make.

 

[NotoriousISSY]

The Navas thing was so blatantly a dive at the time

 

[Señor]

Actually feck it, a City defeat would please me just as much, even though we'd have a slightly better chance of winning the CL with Barca out rather than City.

 

[Duafc]

Ha to all the people complaining about Demichelis starting.

We went to the Nou Camp, against Barceona in their pomp with Mikael Silvestre in defence, Wenger subbed him off after an hour and he almost never subs off a defender.

Did I mention we also started with Bendnter up front and Denilson in midfield?

Albeit we lost badly but I've never moaned about Silvestre being the reason why we lost. He wasn't good enough but neither were we as a team.

This is a weaker Barcelona team, City are playing a much stronger XI than we did back then and they are at home. If they lose as well it won't be because of Demichelis alone

 

[Nick 0208 Ldn]

Time for City to park the bus until the second leg.

 

[Levo]

Demechelis has been a massive liability for City. I was shocked they didn't go for another CB during the summer.

Makes you wonder if them backing out for Mangala will cost them big time now.

 

[Sixpence]

The Navas thing was so blatantly a dive at the time

Foul according to Clive. Ridiculous bias.

 

[Snowjoe]

City could be in trouble now...

 

[Sixpence]

This tie will be over soon.

 

[Cedric]

City are struggling now.

 

[RonaldoVII]

Hope they notch a few more and stuff them

 

[Chabon]

Demichelis

How is he starting a match like this for a club with a 400 million pound squad...

 

[JP77]

Interested to see what they do now. Down to ten and a goal down at home. Do you go for it knowing that you're probably fecked if you don't get something out of this home game or do you try to defend at all costs, stay cautious and try to keep it at 0-1?

Ah, who cares, they're fecked either way!

 

[Tarrou]

How can you spend 100 billion and still line-up with Demichelis as one of your centre backs?

 

[Randall Flagg]

They smell blood. Kill them kill them

 

[Ish]

Walking through here.

 

[Mystry]

Barcelona can win this tie tonight.

 

[LARulz]

If that was United under that sort of pressure I don't think I'd have been able to breath if I was watching

 

[Donaldo]
