Paris need Icardi on. Been in great form of late, and isn’t playful in front of goal. Paris should have this done tonight if they want.

That makes no sense. Just because they go through doesn't mean it would be a better final. Also you want to see it before it's happened?

Besides that warped logic, they play each other at least twice a year. I prefer to see teams who don't play each other often in the CL. It's kind of the whole point.
It's you who has warped logic. Two teams get to the final and in your convoluted mentality they don't deserve it?

Enjoyed that from Mbappe. One look at Bakker and decides running into 3 City defenders is a better idea :lol:

I'm a big fan of Foden but he has to do better there. This game proves how City are crying out for a striker. They rely far too much on midfielders to score. Been a good enough performance from them but there's little goal threat.

Can we please sign two top quality players while not losing Pogba so we can compete at this level

It's magical football.

Thought Bakke (or whatever his name is) has been great in that half for so an inexperienced player.

The CL is a glorified FA Cup set to music

They haven't created many chances. A striker like Aguero wouldn't do feck all unless he dribbled past 9 players like Messi.

City haven't been able to stamp control of the midfield, that the number 1 concern.

Really good passing on display here. City have the precision but not the incision that PSG do. They are trying to play around PSG's defense while PSG are playing through theirs. Hope PSG cut out their mistakes at the back and score at least another.

Jeans is right. City's fullbacks aren't pushing forward as much as they do in the prem. It's essentially a different city side we are watching.

Can't exactly blame them though with Mbappe, Neymar and Di Maria on the opposing attack.

PSG are just better than City at the end of the day

Di Maria is incredible (wish it worked out here). So are Veratti and Neymar.

They aren't in the final.

You said you wanted them there.

I said it wouldn't be a great final.

You're now trying to talk about who deserves to be there before the first legs of the semis are even completed. Are you feeling ok?
