Still can't believe how awful Ederson was for that first goal which ultimately lost City the match. He had no command of his 6 yard box and really should have gotten to that.

Was thinking similar. He’s a great fit for their team but is he a truly great goalkeeper?

Yeah yeah yeah PSG = bottlers. Chelsea= Bottlers. City=Bottlers what utter tosh.

Hardest route to the CL final possibly EVER and that's the pathetic analysis that you give? What kind of route is that, which team would survive that route?

With no away goal rule, Real Madrid had to OUTSCORE each of those three elite sides and they did. They had to OUTSCORE them.

Just admit, it's an astonishing achievement. It's pure grit and determination. They're fighting for their shirt, even if they're up against it.
Real earning to be in final doesn’t mean city aren’t bottlers. It’s not mutually exclusive.
I gave a stat. City is the first team to lose that way against Real. I don’t now what you mean. Real is invincible or something ?

In 99, when United won, Bayern bottled in final. They were the better team and lost at the very end. It’s an iconic moment but you can see it either way. It’s not mutually exclusive.

Maybe you don’t like to see a bottler when you see one ?

By the way, PSG and City are the biggest bottlers you will see in CL.

Gotta say 'm a bit worried there's a touch of destiny about Madrid this season. PSG, Chelsea and now City. They keep overcoming obstacles.

There's also a bit of destiny about you. The amount of shit teams you had play to reach the final is something

Madrid have surely had the most difficult path to the final in modern CL.

I'd said it before but he's a good but not great keeper. He has two major strengths, sweeping and passing. He's pretty brave but he's only a good keeper, rarely makes saves he shouldn't (like DDG or Alisson) while he's the perfect keeper for City/Pep anywhere else he's a good but not amazing keeper.

Yeah, god bless a Liverpool 3/4-0 win in the final. Idiots.
Mate, Liverpool were pretty much guaranteed to beat City in the final imo. What makes you think City would win? City don't have the European pedigree.

City lost against Chelsea last year in the CL final, what makes you think they could beat Liverpool in the CL final?

They also recently got dumped out of the FA cup by Liverpool in case you forgot.

If you're desperate for Liverpool to lose, then Madrid is your best bet at this point. City don't cut it.

Lescott keeps on saying that City have a chance to win 3 Premier Leagues in a row. If they win the PL it’s only 2 in a row :lol: Embarrassing lack of knowledge. He’s said it 10 times already.

Liverpool win the quadruple and it betters our treble. At least we were able to hold on to that best ever achievement. But the quadruple!!! It becomes pure hell every day. This is a killer result not just in the Champions League but the Prem. How can City possibly bounce back after that.
agree mentally city are done

theyll do the quad the pricks

This is the last good season Pep can squeeze out of them. It's the end of the cycle for them.
