*** Barcelona v City - Official Match Thread ***

[Moonchesteri]

Milner needs to step up his game. Today we will need some end product from him as well as the usual good work off the ball

[guv111]

They've got closer to scoring about half a dozen times than we have. The optimist would say were are bound to prevail.

[aaron bond]

We have to take some of these chances. We're causing them problems when we attack.

Have to be clinical.

[Cit.revenge]

Look Aguero !

[dick dastardley]

Nasri. Kolorov, need to step up in next half

[guv111]

That first half was very predictable. It's just Arsenal last night all over again.

[Sideshow Bob]

aguero has been invisible. been told to stay high up the pitch I suppose.

[PeterParker]

Did anyone saw any City fans in the close-up from the coverage? They didn't show not even one.

[zuricity]

Wtf was hart doing then

Avoiding a penalty and he was correct.

[Green & Blue]

Wtf was hart doing then

I thought he was spot on.Nobody else was going to Neymar to keep him at bay.Great half from Joe

[Clowncrete]

He has to drop deeper if we are to score.

[Blue_Manc]

Kolarov can't even make a straight forward pass. He is poor tonight. Nasri, Silva and Aguero need to step up. We are lucky to still have a clean sheet tonight.

Garcia on a corner 1

Nasri 89th.. 2

Pantmillion penalty 3

[Pretty Boy Lee]

C'mon lads a goal will really open this up.

Now does anyone have upto date free lock stats as my counts is roughly 146 to 3

[Esky]

Silva and Nasri had good chances, Milner and Aguero haven't been able to get into the game. Dzeko and Negredo would provide height but have been rubbish lately. Alba would be able to match Navas for pace.

Perhaps Garcia for Milner and push Toure forward? Wonder what Ruben's brief is.

Fuck off Lawrenson, reading my MCF posts. :(

I can see us grabbing 1 goal maybe. Dont see a second though.

Kolarov ? Start with Silva. In their penalty area three times and goes backwards ?

[Chopper]

Lescotts been good.

[nottsblue]

One goal. The game will then change in our favour, give us belief and conviction. The defence, by hook or by crook, has done its job. Now is the time for Silva, Nasri and Toure to step up and deliver. Stand up and be counted blue boys
