Very good last 15 minutes. On top now

[Nigels Tackle]

last 5 mins the best since the first 20 v arsenal before rodders got injured

[Harry Dowd scored]

Think Josko is playing well

[Nigels Tackle]

wish stones wasn’t made of glass, such a classy footballer

[nottsblue]

Think Josko is playing well

Just about to post the same

[nottsblue]

Honestly forgot Mbappe was playing

[Nigels Tackle]

enjoyed that

[Harry Dowd scored]

They move the ball faster than us. Fucking ref lets them get away with fouls

[sheblue]

Akanji coming off?

[Redna]

Not to bad. Obviosly bad but not as bad as I have thought.

[mr_nool]

Did anyone (in the universe) manage to predict that City line up? Pep's mind is an enigma.

That said, we're one nil up. Could've been bad if Madrid had their shooting boots on, though.

[blues2win]

Yes I think Akanjilooks in difficulties. Stones drops back and either Kovacic or Nico to come on? We had to do a lot of defending and by and large did so well but they are dangerous. Obviously would love a second goal. Unlucky for Grealish to come off who looked decent. Phil seems in the mood though.

[Bluemoon16]

Wasn't expecting this performance or scoreline at half time. Savio engaged everywhere. More of the same please!

[sniffer]

Savinho playing well and tackling back.

[KinkyKinkladze]

Feel we're lacking something in midfield. Would prefer Kova on, or even nico but I haven't a clue who I'd bring off as they've all been mint. Maybe Bernie?

Akanji has been ripped apart on the right but he's not a right back, with his skillset he's done well but he's a risk in terms of pace. I'd like to see the Uzbeki lad on but he's a whole different risk.

[KinkyKinkladze]

Stones though. Rolls fucking Royce. I love him.

[Sparklehorse]

Why is that red bastard punditing on our came, I give not one jot of interest tin what he says.

[s1ty m]

If he goes for Nunes at RB, I'll likely eat my own fingers.
