I don’t know Bellingham personally, so I can’t comment on whether he’s a competitor or not.

But you can interpret that he's crying by posting a picture, ok. I wouldn't mind if he rocked up at City in the near future.


Well he actually is. That is a bitter post in my book also.
Players these days can't wait for a game to end to go and post something on social media.

Sancho was crying mid-game - “This ref needs checking” actually surprised he’s got away with that. Imagine Sterling posting that a few seasons back against Spurs

What the dippers got away with the season before was far worse. Literally the biggest stitch up I have ever seen in football. Four serious game changers across the two legs and all went in their favour.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

I don’t need to interpret it, I can see his posts. It was mentioned that Bellingham took having the goal disallowed well. I showed he didn’t, and that’s understandable. I’d be fuming.
Sorry if my comment offended you both. I’m sure Jude won’t read it and it won’t effect us potentially signing him in the future.

Was he crying by saying 'gutted' or crying by saying 'still in it'? I presume these are the two tweets you're referring to, but I still don't see where he was crying personally. Maybe I don't interpret things in the same way as you.

No worries. A few people have also mentioned it.

His interview was great though, I caught that this morning. Very down to earth.

Wonder if we would stand a better chance of winning it if we weren’t as successful domestically? I mean, we are usually in a PL title race and usually have gone deep in the domestic cups so we always seem to have big important games to play in and around the latter stages of the CL. Maybe if we only had the CL to focus on then getting over the big hurdle of winning it the first time might be easier?

Not sure about that, I still believe that Pep’s overt “inferiority complex” about City rubbing shoulders with the so called elite teams has spread to the players, look how he always bigs up the rags and dippers as if we are lucky to be challenging them for honours.
We were nervous against Dortmund, if that Dortmund team were in the PL we would see them off no problem, but in the CL we play the competition not the team, it is the only explanation for our relatively poor performance in the CL


We've been a bag of nerves in pretty much every CL game since long before Pep. I think the pressure comes from higher up and trickles down to the players on the pitch (deserved legend and club captain, Kompany, used to look like a school boy on a field trip to a prison yard as soon as we reached the knock out stages). Our history of misfortunes, brain farts, horrible officiating, etc. of course contributes.

Dortmund losing away to Stuttgart in their Bundesliga game. Looks a pretty much full strength side they’ve put out as they are still behind in the race for a CL spot.

They put out a "Full Strength" team because they do not have strength in depth .

Get ready for some bent decisions: Carlos del Cerro Grande will be in charge.
So again a Spanish cunt in charge. Surely Tebas is giving the last instructions.

Hope it's not the case. He needs a game to get in shape.
Stones and Dias for me all the way.

I was thinking more about a back three. Stones Dias and Laporte. Walker and Zinchenko as wing backs. He’ll probably play Cancelo playing as an inverted FB but that leaves Dias playing on the left of the defence which really doesn’t work well in my opinion. He’s uncomfortable there and will be pressed to take advantage.

Worse he is from the Madrid region.
Odds on he hates Catalans in general and Pep in particular.

We had our shares with the spanish cunts in charge. Lahoz comes into mind and how much he fucked us.
Worried about this, but looking at the stats with Grande, we won them all.

The knob that sent Otamendi off and gave Schalke two iffy penalties. Hmmm.

All above board. Nothing to see here. These aren’t the droids you’re looking for. He can go about his business. Move along.
