Bazzas right boot

8-2

That was Messi.... 

 

Bayern have a habit of utterly destroying "top" teams, 8-2 was just them getting their aggregate score done and dusted in 1 game rather than 2.

Barca need a reboot, end of an era.

Bayern pulling out all the stops to impress young Hickey. 

 

Unreal. 

Must be a no brainer for Hickey now after that result lol.

It was coming.

 

City have raised their game and Lyon's lack of games perhaps hurting. 

 

1-1, 70 minutes. 

It's gonna be aong 20 mins for them, even if they do have quite a fit, young team

Nice to see someone who has played in Scotland do well. 

 

 

Thought Denayer was absolutely pish at Celtic too 😀

Great tournament so far. 

Yeah, would be great if all the knockout ties were just one off games like this, one after the other.

Makes it much more intense

That miss by sterling crucial.

Something like 60 seconds to the 3rd goal

Can countries from the same nation be drawn together in the semi's or are they still kept separate? PSG v Leipzig would be very hard to choose who I wanted to win. But can't see PSG and Bayern being drawn together a la classic Old Firm here

I’d like to give special thanks to William Hill for buying into the arrogance of the EPL and giving me 11/1 on Lyon winning, conveniently forgetting that teams can be very good without paying a fortune for players and not being in “the greatest league in the world”.

BT sports salty tears are beautiful tonight

No wonder. After the Barca/Bayern game all 3 presenters were lip smacking over the foregone conclusion that it would be City vs Bayern in the semi. It’s like a mist that comes down as soon as an English team are involved. They didn’t even connect that older teams playing a dated system (like Barca and City) are starting to be picked off by younger teams playing an energetic high press for 90 minutes.( Stendel’s philosophy although he didn’t have the players to pull it off)

 

Bayern’s cup now. Can’t see anyone left stopping them

Can't see past bayern overall but in a one off game anything could happen. The 1 leg format has actually been quite good. Just a shame it will be back to the boring 2 leg affairs from next season

Agree re styles.

 

City have often been pretty ponderous. 

 

But got what they deserved. Complacency or just lack of intensity first half laid the path to defeat.

Round of 16 I believe is the only time they can’t. After that, it’s fair game, I.e. City v Tottenham in last years quarter final

It’s exciting stuff.

 

Guardiola will just get another job, managing another, already successful team, and will thus  be hailed as one of the greatest managers ever.  

 

Again.

I love it when these big money clubs get stuffed, even if it's by another big money club.  On the other hand, I want Bezos to plough billions into us.

 

I take a very even-handed approach.
