Just backed KDB as anytime scorer. It just feels inevitable after he should’ve been sent off

Messi barely even runs when PSG get the ball. That said having him in there is helping them vs last season when they got completely dominated in midfield.

I wish Ole would look at City though - inverted wide forwards that stay out wide and try to dribble, technical fullbacks providing the overload, and midfielders that are comfortable on the ball and make forward runs in behind. We used to play like that under SAF, now it's just so many square pegs our whole team. Names, rather than actual suitability to the team.

Pep might spend billions but his style is the best I’ve seen. City can spend another billion after he goes but they will be worse no matter who they bring in.
Of course. Pep's football is a thing of beauty. He's been my favorite manager (besides Sir Alex) ever since he emerged, and no one has come close since then. There may be other managers that achieve things or best him to trophies, but no manager in world football even comes close to Pep's style.

We don't have the fullbacks or midfield City do.

PSG look happy for 1-0. They transition up the pitch and can get at City then they just stop and piss about with it.

Most hateable team in world football plays the second most hateable team in world football.
