Madrid just have a magic spell with the CL but they aren't the best team around like Bayern and City. Capable to turn back the years in a one off game though. But even last year when they were better than this year, they relied on a ton of luck against each of City, Chelsea and Liverpool... 2 years in a row of that? Don't see it.

This Bayern team are a joke. They're playing about in their own box, losing the ball.

If Davies wasn't quick he would be League 2 level. He's awful

They can't compete with City really, City should be winning comfortably. Bayern don't play anyone decent all season until they get to this point in the CL.
Dumbest thing I've heard all week. In the past 25 years

99 - Final
01 - Winners
10 - Final
12 - Final
13 - Winners
20 - Winners

This is all about City being good. But it should be noted Bayern being a mess on and off the pitch.

- Fired Nagelsmann with it all still to play for.
- At risk of losing Bundesliga.
- Kicked out of German cup by Freiburg.
- Didn't replace Lewandowski
- Star signing Mane benched
- Captain Neuer out with broken leg while skiing
- GK coach Tapalovic, Neuers best man, fired causing mutiny
- Moles that leak everything to the press

This will end up really embarrassing. Bayern have no clue what to do with City’s attack. All over the place.

I hope this ends the myth of Tuchel. Dour defensive manager. He's mid tier.

The second goal destroyed Bayern :( They more than held their own before that but now it's a drubbing.

This is the end of the Bundesliga as a top league. Bayern don't have a pool of world-class German players to draw on and nobody wants to go to the Bundesliga nor do Bayern have unlimited funds like PSG.

They aren’t shite ffs :lol: City are just better.
Exactly, Bayern, PSG, formally Juventus, these teams need soft draws right up to the semi's to stand a chance of winning anything. They're leagues aren't competitive enough to give them a chance against teams like City.

Great decision to change managers only to get knocked out of the German Cup and then get battered in the CL after conceding a total of zero goals in all previous games.
