Check the replays, keeper hit his legs clearly, was that you guys at OT there'd be 82000 posts about it, and check the replay Sterling was onside. No doubt Monaco deserve the lead but it was a penalty.
He hits his leg when Aguero is already falling down, check the replays.

If we were at Emptihad there would be about 20k posts.

Ligue 1 sides battering the best both Spain & England have to offer while consistently producing the best talent in football yet it's a pub League according to this board. :lol:
Yep, people really should not judge a league they have no knowledge about.

Why did the keeper hit his legs? Why isn't it Aguero hit the keepers legs? Keeper went into a tackle, clearly won the ball and Aguero went over his legs. That simply isn't a foul.

Voted the best city in the world
Monaco has one of the top 3 best academies in France: we're talking of the club that launched some players like Thierry Henry, David Trézéguet....Martial, Mbappé, Lémar...

Smart acquisitions in the last seasons: Mendy (Marseille), Bernardo Silva (Portugal), Gilk (Great at the euro with Poland), Fabinho many years ago...

Top academy. Top recruiters. Top coach :)
Thanks DC :drool:

Still think it was a pen, the replay hasn't changed my mind, despite the general consensus on here being the opposite.
Hope Monaco can hold their lead or add to it, great game so far.

When we go shopping in the summer, I think we should make a visit to Monaco.
Fabinho, Bakayoko and Mbappe are, in my view, all potential signings.

What an exciting half of football! That midfield and attack of Monaco looks absolutely lethal. Bernardo Silva, what a player. Mbappe is triggering my inner muppet sooo hard right now.

One thing I must say, Pep is handing them that game on a plate. 1 striker, 4 AMs and only 1 MF? The 33yo Toure being that only MF? It's almost disrespectful to Monaco, but they won't complain. Every time they break on the counter they are straight on through to the City defenders.

Bluemoon will have banned a good few since half time, because the minute you criticise Pep on there, youre banned.

Lets take Falcao back.

Kidding. But I'm glad he's doing all right.

City tho, maybe they should buy another couple of CBs, they will make it right eventually.

People don't realise how much the Premier League has declined over the past decade & how the rest of Europe has quickly caught up.

Jesus. Only just watched the Monaco 2nd goal. Awful from Otamendi.

Can we all stand back and appreciate the monster this Monaco team would be if they kept Martial. We need to get access to their conveyor belt.
He is at Lille and will normally work with Bielsa.

I would not be carried away though, every round is higher in level and teams excelling today may turn sh*t tomorrow because of new pressure.
