"if one team can score a thousand million goals, it is Monaco."

Pep is absolutely right. Monaco can win it 2-0 or 3-1. gonna be an intense match.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

Amazing that we could lose the return leg 4-2 and go out.

Personally I think we'll win about 3-0. Sometimes the away scenario seems to suit us better.

We must surely be looking hard at three Monaco players. Fabinho as a right back Silva midfield and Benteppe is it? that dazzling young forward.

Was at the match which was absolutely fantastic. Whingeing about our shitty defence when you see such a quality match is silly. They had Falcao Benteppe Costa and Fabinho who were too much for us. We had Sane Sterling Silva De Bruyne and above all Sergio who were too much for them. Does anyone still have doubts about Champions League football. This is where City belong with the top European sides and believe me Monaco is the best side in France and a top top team full stop.

Fabinho is really a top player. Amazing he is just 23 years old. We should have a go at him.

I seem to have read somewhere that Chelsea are interested in him.

I think I saw an article in the last week suggesting that he'd like to come to us. Looks a quality player, as did a number of the rest of their team.

Don't know if this works, but here is hopefully a link to an article where Fabinho's dad says his son has soft spot for us.....

The Scum to be "snubbed".....nice article for that alone.

However, if he does have a soft spot for City - and we wanted him - after Tuesday night's game he'd definitely relish coming to us, both for the way that we play and because he would walk straight into the team.

I wonder what it would cost to sign him ??

nice to see a headline in our favour for once., but his actual comments are a bit of nothing. trying to keep all of his options open in order to drive up demand this summer.

He is a right back but playing defensive mid. He's perfect for us. What a wonderful cross for their first goal apart from everything else. I'm sure he's top of Pep's list.
