Genie Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 (edited) I thought 30-60 mins Bayern were the better side, then their defence shit the bed big time. (I didn’t watch the first 30) Edited April 11, 2023 by Genie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
duke313 Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 I’m liking the amount of long distance shots in this match, teams don’t do that enough anymore I think. Are they doing it because it’s wet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zhan_Zhuang Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Was hoping Bayern would get something out of this... Still think Real or Napoli would beat Abu Dhabi City though... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Rev Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 Manchester City were excellent tonight. Sometimes when you're used to watching a mid table side who have just started playing well (Villa) you get the reality check when you see just how far ahead the absolute elite teams are of the rest of us. I don't think Bayern were too bad tonight, Tuchel's ideas made sense if it was to bait the press then hit Manchester City with raw pace but there were a few mix ups at the back, not sure why the commentators were so keen to dig Sommer out when Upemecano had a stinker and that was probably all Manchester City needed to put Bayern to the sword. Grealish excellent again, Bernado is just a different class. It really could have been five or six. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The right spirit? Manchester f******* City? No wonder they get away with everything when fans of opposing clubs who they've cheated are willing to not only totally ignore their crimes but hand out this sort of praise. It doesn't matter how well they play, they are illegitimate and that's it. The right spirit? Can't believe what I'm reading tbh.

And even if they do get stripped of titles, that is a Premier League investigation, they can’t strip a CL off them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my opinion there is a difference between owners doing dodgy deals and being run by a nation, and 11 players who are just really good at football. I despise Man City as much as the next person. But watching Haaland, De Bruyne, Rodri, I just sit and applaud them. Juste because the director of the theatre is a dodgy guy, it doesn't mean I can't appreciate the work actors put in their performance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted April 11, 2023 Share Posted April 11, 2023 They shouldn't even be playing in the competition. A stain on football at the moment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's just not right how people are eso willing to ignore the fact they've destroyed football just like because they play well. They've brainwashed even fans of rival clubs. It's sad to see. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But those actors are only there performing because of the fraud and corruption of the owner. Surely that taints any enjoyment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
