Re: UEFA Champions & Europa League 2014-15 Season Thread
Balotelli was definitely right to take the penalty. I rate Henderson, but I know which out of the two I want taking a pressure penalty in the 84th minute.
Re: UEFA Champions & Europa League 2014-15 Season Thread
Im assuming that Henderson was down as Penalty taken as Mario was benched. So i expect that changed when Mario came on...
That would of solved a lot of hassle if Gerrard said that to the media...

Not really a very relevant comment, the overall ability of a player doesn't make him a better penalty taker. Balotelli is statistically a better penalty taker than Messi for instance so the comparison falls apart completely.
Again you bring up Man United for no reason, Fellaini if utilised right as LVG is doing can be a useful and alternative option off the bench, if going long to the big man wins games then why not do it.

Yes I think Fellani should be that impact , plan b player- but I also think they need to try and play football first- Man U style.
Man U were loved by so many because of the way they played- I even had a lot of respect for them . Without a quality way of playing that respect is diminishing.

You'll not get a better chance to get a result. Problem, Barca's blip and Newcastle's capitulation at the weekend tend to make it look like City are the form team so people are getting very excited. Looking forward to the game, even though I'm still F*CKING WORKING.
I hope City do well tonight though (they might go out and get sh!tfaced so badly afterwards that they're still hungover for the trip to Anfield on Sunday)

Man City have got to move the ball forward quicker and take advantage of the space in behind the Barcelona defence. It's no good trying to play passing football against them. I'm a bit surprised Jesus Navas didn't start. I would have 433/ 451 played Silva, Aguero, Navas up front, and put an extra body in midfield rather than Dzeko.

Barcelona are just loving Man City passing the ball in front of them. City need to break with pace and try and get in behind the Barcelona defence. You are not going to out pass them.
Take Dzeko and Nasri off, put Navas and Fernandinho on. Mourinho would have made the changes by now.

Awful from City, Suarez has a knack of scoring two past Hart. City midfield anonymous, basically tie over already. Love the pre game talk of 'this Barcelona team isn't as good anymore'.

Barça flatlining a bit now.
Understandable I suppose, as they were playing two different sports in the first half - Barcelona football, Citeh were having a track meet.
The other half of the Fernando act coming on.

Reckon theyre both rather overrated for mine. Can't really recall a big game I thought Fernandinho was colossal in. Or even appreciably good.

You watch Fernandinho when Yaya plays He lets Yaya get on with it and clears up behind like an Coquelin,Matic etc. Very underplayed how much work he gets through.

Two yellow cards equal a red. Even if they are rather basic yellows to concede.

Yep but it's still as soft a sending of as you will ever see. 70% of the time at least one wouldn't be a yellow

Man City really are emulating their neighbours in doing f**k all in their first umpteen Champions League seasons.

Re: UEFA Champions & Europa League 2014-15 Season Thread
Both were unnecessary though. The first one, Rakitic takes a desperate heavy touch, and has nowhere to go. At the very least, the ball goes for a City throw, at worst - Rakitic is isolated down a flank. Still dangerous of course, but when you draw up a list of players you don't want hairing down a flank, Rakitic doesn't come to mind. Second one again, Alves isn't really going anywhere.

Still, a red card when you had the momentum. Gives Pocch an excuse for another failed European season, and nothing will change at Citeh - although to be fair nothing should, Pocch has done well.
