Aside from KC's tears, another highlight this morning was Messi taking the champions league goal scoring record. From Raul, one of my all time favourite players. He was a genuis.
Inb4 typeclub claims Messi is s**t and got lucky and scored 222 penalties which he didn't deserve cos he's a diving cheat n take hormones n s**t and is s**t.

Just saw the highlights:
Kun is a freak. Having said that, Bayern gifted him 2 goals.
Alonso's free kick was hilariously nonchalant. Literally passed it in. His mistake for Kun's second goal was fairly ordinary though.
Aren't Schalke s**t? The keeping for Willains goal was deplorable. The own goal where the only 3 players that went for it were all Schalke players was nothing short of embarrassing.

good to see kaiserchief taking it well
a blatant pen gets given in the first game we at least get a point. a dive gets ignored vs cska and we have 3 points. so deal with it

So has Neuer. Except in your eyes Neuer has never had a match winning performance.

Did you watch 2008 and 2010? There's no comparison with Neuer's 2014 passenger role.
So yea, he's a goalkeeper. Unlike Xabi Alonso who is a liability if he's the DM.

That Alsonso goal was a near perfect recreation of Baslers in the 1999 final.
City winning was also a near perfect recreation of United in the 1999 final.
In summery bayern must hate everything about Manchester.

finished watching it now.
we were outplayed? must've been watching a different game. bayern passed it around a lot, but created nothing. ribery and robben were absolutely invisble. imagine being toweled up by gael clichy and bacary sagna in 2014. if you don't make chances, you're not going to win many games. we were smart, we knew that even a man down, alonso and co were good enough to retain the ball and pass it around. so we didn't rush in, we sat back and mopped up attempted plays up forward. just because bayern are a man down doesnt change they're a superb team.
i'd love us to play more like that. pack the midfield and allow us to sit deeper, and play route 1 a bit more. the 2 bayern goals were just silly defending. hart's wall is a mess and then passes it around it. not good enough. defending on the 2nd was typical city. too much space allowed and lew just floats in. but we pressured them in midfield, not super pressing but there was always a man closing down. alonso makes a bad pass after lamps closes him down, there pressure is there late in the game and he makes a bad pass. the same with boateng, he takes an extra touch and kun is there, pressuring like he did for 90 mins. lucky? yes. but there should be some credit for closing down for 90 mins and pressuring the man. but i guess we can't have that. always lucky.
ref had a great game. zab lucky to stay on but his first yellow was an absolute joke so it evens out. not that it would've made a lick of difference.
that sort of game is just what the city fans needed too. a reason to care about the champions league. instead of this flimsy scared playing, we played 90 minutes, played till the end and the result went our way. if city want to get the fans into the champions league, then they're the type of performances that will attract people to the games.
thought mangala was disgustingly good. kun, lamps and nasri also had really good games. to win without silva, yaya and dinho though is great. sure, bayern had names out, but they're still bayern. with some luck this kicks on our entire season, like beating them did last season.

So torn between City actually being chance of getting out of the group and kaiserchief meltdown.
I'm convinced Bayern will get Reus now, one of Ribery or Robben is done and will be shipped out next summer

Bayern don't look better than last season. They've gotten worse every year under Pep.
Very overrated all over the pitch.

Possibly, but Robben has been good all season but didn't play so well vs. City, one match, so a bit unfair imo.
Ribery has had a bunch of sub appearances up until the start of the month where he finally played 90 minutes instead of 20-30. No good letting him play when he's injured, he needs to settle back in and find his rhythm.

Robben is arguably the third best player in the world.
