*** Official Man City vs Real Madrid ***

[Mase]

What happened?

The guy interviewing asked if we should give some credit to Real.
He flat out said "No!" And went on to say that making mistakes we've only got ourselves to blame.
He was fuming. The guy said about the positives and Joe said "what do you want me to say? I know you want me to be positive but I've just come off the pitch..."

[carolina-blue]

Was working so only caught the second half Until we scored I thought it was only a matter of time before they did Joe was magnificent , Then we go 1 up and I honestly thought we would still concede The defence has not been a patch on last year , But tbh I never had us down as losing Gutted Come on Bob sort out the defence, Fookin no good scoring two away from home in that areana when we let in 3 Need to bounce back Sunday now big time

[bobby brows]

All 3 goals could have been prevented, very poor at the back again! Without undergoing a complete in-depth analysis of the game there's not one thing it can be put down to. Rather a lot of things.

I'll think we'll beat them at home

[carl_feedthegoat]

Kompany has been shit for a while now. If no one says anything to him after this shit there's something wrong.

Even the kids played better than him.

him and lescott are shite and have been for ages...he lost us this match...what a cunt.

The young lad got turned inside out by fucking Benzema & nearly cost us 3 or 4 fucking goals, he's a promising kid who had some good & some fucking terrible moments.

Our best defence is Zabba/Micah Kompany LESCOTT Clichy. It won usthe fucking league becuae it was a unit. Now, because of the pissarsing about changing players & formations, there is no unit. Nobody has a fucking clue what they are supposed to be doing & it's making established players nervous & uncertain. Nobody is backing up, nobody is marking up, nobody is picking up runners because the defensive unit is not playing games together.

The only decent defender tonight was Clichy. He and Lescott have been the best two defenders so far this season. It was fucking madness to leave Lescott out & it's only down to sheer luck & fucking terrible finishing by Real that we weren't 4 or 5 down at half time. All of those goals would have been down to elementary defensive mistakes.

We showed 2nd half that we could play v these fuckers but we had a fucking disorganised shambles as a defence. Not just Vinny EVERYBODY.

PICK THE PROPER BACK 4 AND PLAY IT UNTIL IT GETS BACK TO LAST SEASON'S FORM.

Spot on there me laddo..Dont fix that aint broken eh.[/quote
EH ??? WE HAVE SHIPPED IN GOALS LEFT RIGHT AND CENTRE...WON 2 DRAWN 2.......Id say the defence needed fixing mate.

[Green & Blue]

I can't believe Kompany ducking for the 3rd crazy stuff from him

[lets all have a disco]

Nastasic dicked on the second goal showed signs of the rookie he is.

He made several catastrophic mistakes but, unlike Savic, it's not because he's shit, it's just because he has to learn. The lad has got talent but he shouldn't have been anywhere near that team tonight.

I agree.

[Socrates]

Vinnie must be rested. He is tired. Last season he played almost every game, only that red card had him off. Even Zabs was owned by Tranny. I think he could had left Maicon until the last moment.

I would had loved to see Bobby taking a piss on Maureen.

fucking tired??? we have only just began ffs !!!!!

He has just turned to shit.....end of.

so last season's prem player of the season has "turned to shit" Carl the cunt has spoken... fucking fuck the fuck off carl. If you cannot be proud of that performance tonight then you are the biggest cunt ever. Do one. I am not reading your shit anymore...

[Dronny]

Nice to hear Maureen compare us to Barcelona in his summary of why his players need to get up for every game not just us and Barca

Which part of" KOMPANY LOST US THE GAME DIDNT YOU UNDERSTAND??????????

Kompany wasn't responsible for the second goal, Nastasic was. Both Vinny & Nasty potentially lost us the game about 5 times each but got away with it. At the end both their luck ran out, but if we had a proper defensive unit, half of those chances wouldn't have occurred. EVERYBODY was out of position half the time.

In front of a random back 4,you've got Barry & Garcia who have never played together.

It's fucking ridiculous.

Last season; Kolo at Bayern. Now this.

Joke. We could have won that.

[Grandad Rosler]

Don't think Nastasic was as bad as everyone is making out on here, they walked around every one of our players for their goals/pretty much every one of their shots

We didn't deserve to win but was harsh to lose like that, we should of held out. One of the first things that you ever learn as a kid is that you don't give any players time to shoot never mind giving the Spanish champions.

The second thing you learn is you don't shit out of taking a ball full in the face if and when required

They were the better team for the majority of the match but doesn't hurt any less

Then go play in the titty bar and fucking do one you smarmy cunt.

[kennyboy]

Just seen the replay again, it's totally Hart's fault.
Ball comes to Kompany's right, think he would'nt touch it for a could be reflection

[Sister of fu]

Hart visibly upset in that interview

Getting slagged off by the rags I know saying he was arrogant and spat his dummy out. Not sure that being gutted about losing and saying we shouldnt lose when 2-1 up with 5 to go is spitting the old dummy out. Thick rag cunts......i hate them.

Ive just said that in an earlier post...Last seasons defense was better so why try and fix it? Zabba or Micah, Komps, Lescott, Clichy is my favourite and we look far more solid..Oh and dont get me started on this back 3 shite.

[Blue Since 76]

Hope Jose tour a bollock off sliding on the pitch. And ruined his suit.

Bizarre team selection leading to abysmal defending. Other managers try things in the carling cup, but Mancini uses the champions league to experiment. Strange.

Now let's dick arsenal at the weekend.

[Duckman]

we played real fuckin madrid. had the lead twice. we lost to real fuckin madrid in madrid. we're ok. sort the leakage at the back.

[shawzy]

Im sorry but you dont duck out of the way to leave for the keeper when a ball comes in at that pace. IMO it ws a bad error that gave the keeper no chance.

[Ted Hughes]

I've never seen a City team allow Ronaldo so many easy shooting opportunities.

Shambles.

Iagree with Ted here to much experiment for these game , to much new players and yes we should get 4 or 5 goals how bad we are at the back.

[eddiecityfan]

Gutted that we lost but we just gave madrid a hell of a game and its a steep learning curve for us. Plenty to be positive about. We're not as good as Real but we,re not far off. Five years ago none of us would have believed we'd ever get a night like this. Stop slagging off the players and get behind the team FFS!
