Ainsley Harriott 2,732 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 City have barely touched the ball.Takes a special kind of genius to play a two man midfield against this Barça trio. Barbara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

obiwan92 217 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 City already look depressed. Might be a huge blow to morale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dukeman 9 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 I'm not a City fan, nor a Chelsea fan, but doesn't it somehow feel bad for you Chelsea fans to see a fellow English squad being slaughtered like that?In the eyes of a neutral football fan like myself it feels a bit like English football is highly overrated in any aspect of football.

Genuine question.Let's be honest: English football is very exicting but the quality of football is absolutely shit. Look what's happening to the current Champions of the Premier League. Look at how we play every time we face a top team: 2 efforts on goals and 30% possession. Peace., The Chels, Pseudo and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atlas Lion 1,223 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Really shows how poor we are form wise. The fact we are only 5 points ahead of City whilst Barca are cruising through this like a training session Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 So, after all that trash talking before the game, City find themselves losing 2-0 to Barcelona. Ha!Pellegrini is such a 'tactical genius' for playing both Aguero and Dzeko at the same time. His squad is hardly disciplined tactically and he does that against one of the very best sides in the world. Bravo Manuel, Bravo.On the other hand, City getting KOed out of the Champions League this early is bad news for us in the Premier League. Unless of course, we get KOed by PSG in two weeks time...

Rapkun 668 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Barca's pressing when they lose the ball is unbelievable. City is alright but collectively they're nothing special for a team with so many good individuals. I'm not sure why they decided to start 2 strikers when obviously they were never going to have much possession. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it seems to be a consistent occurence, unless Chelsea is parking the bus against them. Which is the only valid tactic for any English squad against the current Barcelona I think.

Sheva. 5,373 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 City are really a bunch of noobs. I could have told you yesterday this is how they would play, with their ridiculous 4-4-2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polo7 3,496 Posted February 24, 2015 Share Posted February 24, 2015 Pellegrini fucked up. Cocky bastard tried to play 2 up top against Barca. And Milner in a pivot LOOOOL! Shame Newcastle isnt in the Champions League. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for the honest answer.It's the only valid tactic against all the top Spanish teams and Bayern. There isn't a single English team that could try and take on any of those teams and outplay or dominate them; it's just park the bus and hope you get lucky.
