Disappointing performance, Unai got it wrong imo. Morgan on too long, Disasi at RB. We were far too passive.

Now we'll find out what we're made of.

Pep is a fucking clown. Absolute mental patient.

Hope they get the book thrown at them in the summer.

Got to win our last four games. That should be enough imo.

That's Champions league gone for the season.
I don't think we did a lot wrong, Rogers was dead on his feet.
Disasi isn't a mobile right back so find that sub baffling.

Europa league winners 2026 anybody?

Disasi man, just wipe him out. That's the problem though if you play for a draw. We had way more in us but I feel our previous record here played a massive part.

Win on Saturday and I couldn't give a fuck about tonight.

We were shit. Too passive. This particular iteration of City is not good, they are there for the taking of you don't fear them, and we played with too much fear.

Also, if your gameplan is backs to the wall defending, why Torres? He is more suited to front foot play.

Right back is a position of need this summer.

Cash was getting roasted and Disasi looked like a centre back playing out of position.

Disasi awful

Torres is so weak

Rogers on too long

Pep is a fraud

Empty seats

No soul

Let’s win the rest of our games.

Goodnight.

Imagine spending 40m on Disasi just to play him all next season at RB.....No different from Cuellar 15 years ago.

I mean we were o.k....without ever having a serious go. Paid them far too much respect and all in all yet another away game in Manchester where we look like plucky underdogs on a big day out.

Comical if we do the same against one of the worst Man. United sides in decades but you wouldn't put it past us.

Can't get my head around Maatsen being an unused sub after how well he played at the weekend. I just don't get this reluctance to not use him or Malen at key points in games when everything is level and to play for. They put Doku on and one moment and they win the game.

Let's just hope if we do our job on Saturday and get them in the cup final we don't play anywhere near as conservative as that. I can live losing with four winnable games to go but losing a cup final in that manner would be even more sickening than 2000.

Disasi jumped in and got roasted down the outside just like against PSG and Palace. Surely Emery should learn that he shouldn't be playing there.

There's a reason why Chelsea let Axel Disasi join a Champions League rival. It's because he is and will always be a terrible defender.

Didn't deserve much so I'm not as gutted as I thought I'd be. We showed fuck-all going forward.
Disasi is a Chelsea reject for a reason. Ridiculous positioning, Doku had him on toast. Guardiola is still a cvnt though.

Far too passive, deserved to lose. Substitutions were really random. They're our bogey team away from home, I'd be concerned if we play like that should we meet in the final.
