City vs Monaco - LIVE!!!

First topic message reminder :

Big game again. We really need to get a win and, hopefully, by a couple of goals.

Monaco are no pushover. They seem to be a young team with lots of pace and a decent attack and they're top of Ligue 1. That's no fluke. They score goals and don't concede too many. Speaking with a friend, he said if they start well, they can be very very good. But if they start badly.....

Let's hope we are at it from the get go tonight.

That was going to be one of my points. We've been watching 4 or 5 of their players, including their FB's....do we really want them after that performance?

I still do especially if they are young and as fast as anything. And they put great crosses in.

It's easy to criticise a game like that if you are a killjoy. It's far better to look upon it as a stupidly fantastic game of football.

Killjoy? Maybe I'll re-read this thread.

Didn't I just say it was a fantastic game of football??

no noise from the city fans?

we are going to get stuffed the way we are playing.

We might as well just give up

Someone needs to tell Aguero he isn't as good as messi

Killjoy? Actually, you were very restrained today.....your heart holding out Dawg?

City players now live on FB jetting off to Abu Dhabi.

I meant goldstain was being a killjoy. At 2-1 down and falcao taking a penalty, I can guarantee the air was blue with you bluey

Oops.

I thought it was a great atmosphere in the ground. TV must have turned the microphones down

I made that comment a few minutes into  the game.it really picked up as time went by

What a miserable excuse for a ref.  No penalties for us either the Aguero one nor the Sterling one (debatable) but of course Monaco get one. Anyway justice for us although a bit worried over the away goals scored.  We really have to be on our game for the return leg.

What a different player Falcao is - he was excellent for Monaco.

The Sterling one wasn't a penalty. The Falcao one was probably one. Aguero should have got the pen and the keeper sent off.

But the keeper did make amends later in the game!
