It's lucky we have you to set us right with your purely logical conclusion to balance out the bias then.
Champions league Semi Finals 2020-21 - April 27-28 and May 4-5
- Thread starter roonster09
- Start date
I know but I need to cling onto some sort of hope no matter how small it is.
Football is dead to the point that City just made their first CL final since they got acquired 
Well deserved.
Well deserved.
A Pep Guarinho masterclass sees City beat PSG.
Yeah and it's just our bloody luck that their best two players were injured and robbed us of seeing the right game
As the third wheel up top
It was tonight it died???
Not pleased but just dont like the idea of a cockney team overtaking our tally and Madrid winning another one is annoying as feck as they have won so many.
If city win it this season, infront of no fans, and guardiola decides he is done in Manchester, then I won't be too bothered. They still need another two to match us not to mention all the other trophies they will need to catch up.
Also as a mancunian though, it's something that would be good for Manchester as a place. Having two European winners in one city is impressive.
The comments Ander made about the ref seem laughable.
Appointing Kuypers for this was a great decision imho. PSG should have at least had another red though.

PSG are just a joke at this point. Only got one more chance for someone to stop City then
Post-match not much better. Carragher - "This is great for English football!"
Richards acts as if he's still in the side, so much I'll be surprised if he doesn't turn up for the final broadcast in full kit.
Can we send Ole to whoever qualifies from tomorrow's semi final?
He was on the receiving end but got sent off as well for doing nothing.
It's phenomenal. It beggars belief just how high his standards are. This is why he won so much. He absolutely refused to rest on his laurels for even a moment! CL win? He was already thinking about the first PL game of the following season.Absolute mentality of SAF
Don't you think he has a valid point with the amount of sportswashing that goes on in the UAE or are you one of those fans who have genuinely been sucked in with the City media lovefest
You haven't even won it yet, and we have you lot coming out it the bushes, eh?
So you think you are better than Bayern Munich?
Foden is actually from stockport lol!
Still pretty close though. I'm just scared to see another English team match our 3 CL titles. Chelsea seem to do well in the competition.

You have to balance City winning vs PSG which have manage to assemble a collection of some of the worst characters in a talented 11
It's why we need an off-field timekeeper and scoreboard showing the time.
This PSG team must be the biggest assortment of unlikeable players of at least the last 15 years. Somebody please save Marquinos and get him out of there.
If the final is City v Madrid, I can genuinely see Pep overthinking it and losing it. Zidane doesn't overthink a final, that's why he won three in a row.
Ahh yes, I now remember the phlegm dangling in his awful blonde perm.
Yeah he seems to be the only manager that can give City problems
Real would arrive with half their first team injured/ill.
There's literally zero evidence for that, none. Bayern squeezed past PSG in the final last year having been outplayed, and now you're going to tell me that they should have won this tournament? What are you smoking? I made so much off PSG wining against Bayern, I was up against people who think like you.
What sounds stupid is you logging onto Redcafe to weirdly praise Bayern having been dumped out by a PSG team who themselves were thrashed by City. If you can't see that, then there's no hope for you unfortunately.
Absolutely pathetic evidence-free analysis by a supposed veteran on the Caf. But carry on.
Don't talk to me like you talk to your family. I know exactly what you said. You're saying things that have absolutely no evidence. The fact is that Bayern got dumped out by a PSG team who were relatively weak against City. Those are the facts. When Bayern had "full strength" they actually got outplayed by PSG in the final last year, so what EVIDENCE do you have that they would have beaten PSG this year?
I don't care about your stupid brain-dead opinion, I want to see some evidence.
If you're not going to provide evidence for your opinion, don't quote me. Not interested in what you have to say.
Tuchel for poch are them moving backwards. Overrated and never getting close to UCL finals again.
Especially with both Neymar and Mbappe looking for a way out.
They are never getting two players like that ever again.

Suddenly ESL doesn't look that bad
That's not a fair assumption considering that ,except for 2018 WC(with a really favorable draw), England has been a joke of a NT since the 90s, with much much better players than Foden doing nothing relevant for England NT.
If much better players than Foden did nothing relevant for England NT, why would it be surprising that the same happens to Foden?
DIsagree, Bayern just didnt take chances and made mistakes, and couldnt handlt ehte individual brilliance of Mbappe....City didnt face that tonight, but Bayern and City are without a doubt the two best sides in Europe at the moment and it would be a close game.
People slating PSG, yes they were petulant and as often in recent years, fell apart when the tide turned. BUT I think they played really well for the first half an hour in each matchand if DiMaria hadnt of fluffed his chance and Mbappe was fit, who knows what could have happened.
Credit where it is due though, the second half of each game City were superb, this game encapsulated this seasons CIty for me. Personally I dont think this sides tempo and high press is as good as other City sides and I also dont think they are as good as others tearing sides apart in the final third.....what makes this seasons side good is they are much better defensively, once we got to Christmas this year, they had a centre back partnership and better organisation defensively, so not shipping many silly goals. They are also I think the best CIty side so far at keeping possession of the ball.
Yes of course they are a team that has bought success in terms of spending the most on managers and players, but there is no denying in terms of an organised balanced performance, no denying (through gritted teeth) they fully deserve to be in the final this season
Preach. It is over. Perhaps in 5-8 seasons PSG will stage a coup once again and try to buy the current TopTop player by 250-300 million, but the Neymar-Mbappé era is truly over.
You mean a City that needed a ridiculous refereeing decision in both matches to beat Dortmund, who are 5th in the BL? Please, Bayern could've easily disposed of this City team.
I have to say I found this highly amusing as someone who works in professional gambling.
That was just the easiest part to laugh at.
Do people really care about City winning trophies?
Liverpool winning the league or the European Cup hurts because as much as I hate them, they're a proper club and a proper rival.
City doesn't bother me at all. They stopped being our local rival and a football club worth worrying about when they became the plaything for an oil state to corrupt the game.
I pay as much attention to them winning anything as I do the horse at the front of the Grand National whose rider fell at the first. They're not a legitimate competitor.

Well my family's footballing opinions aren't half as stupid as yours, so I never need to talk to them like that.
But you wouldn't know what a football would look like if it hit you in the face, so I wouldn't bother too much about it, alright?
What evidence we have that Bayern would have beat PSG with Lewa, Gnabry and Goretzka?
maybe that PSG advanced only on away goal technicality despite those missing and Lewandowski being the best goal scorer in the world in a match where Bayern created 32 chances.

I know it's hard to support Arsenal, but come on. Just Relax.
Chelsea will give them more of a game in the final than Real would, but City will finally do it after an illustrious 13 year history.
Also, very apt for plucky City that the final will be played in front of a small crowd.
