Her and Savage have not done themselves any favours by appearing to mock the caller. 

I would be surprised if an apology doesnt follow soon. 

606 is just cringe... Most of the BBC is.

 

Talksport can grate sometimes but it's far more entertaining. Too many fans that arent from the city their club is on 606.

City have reached two cup finals and a Champions League quarter-final without playing any of the top 6 in England, Germany, Spain, Italy, or any team in the top two of Europe's second-tier leagues (France, Portugal, Netherlands, Russia). 

[BangrakBob]

Their last eight games:

 

Brighton (n)

Cardiff (h)

Fulham (a)

Swansea (a)

Schalke (h)

Watford (h)

Bournemouth (a)

West Ham (h)

 

i wouldnt throw the towel in just yet Spurs fans, toughest test they’ve had for sometime

More City jiggery-pokery ????

 

Mind, i wish WE were playing Porto and not the harder game vs Spurs. You lucky bastards!

I just think it's an interesting fact. Spurs should take heart from it. 

 

Personally, I'd prefer City to get through to the semi's

That would be a fair statement, and we weren't  convincing vs Lyon (both legs) and Schalke (A). Great chance for Spurs over the 3 games.

Poch will have got them well prepared, they are pretty much full strength ( you can’t count Dier) and with the extra few days rest they have every chance of getting a good result tonight.

I was thinking  that about Liverpool just an hour ago. That be a nice rematch wouldn't it, us vs yous.

Pss...don't mention that Lyon were 2nd when we played them in the 2nd game and ruin Bob's post ????

Good luck tonight, you'll need it.

Well if you get knocked out of the CL then you have less games to play in the league run.

 

Imagine playing City in CL final after one of us winning the league ????

 

Potentially we would play United in the semi too

[smokie36]

Like the way you big boys are carving it up.

 

Let's see if we can do some damage to your cozy wee arrangement eh.

Mahrez and Delph start and no De Bruyne?

Strange City line up. Guardiola may well regret that choice. 

You gotta be favourites now ????

Shocked. Hope Mahrez shows us something he hasn't done up to now

Set the scene for us Mr BJ...  Have you woken your missus up and made sure she's wearing her matching City replica shirt?

No. My Mrs ain't bothered. We are only 2 hours in front of the UK but my daughter has gone to bed in her lucky one though

Don't forget Danny "Goalkeeper" Rose

[mrbojangles]

Can understand why Pep is being more cautious than he normally is but not used to seeing us like this. Apart from Aguero's missed penalty, I'm ok with 0-0 at half time. Changes needed though to get a needed away goal

[smokie36]

Happy enough with this but we know the two changes that are coming....Sane and De Bruyne for Delph and Mahrez then you lot will up gear...probs Aguero for Jesus late on.

 

We just don't have that depth.

[Bredbury Blue]

Think they've been better. City nervy. Aguero poor missed penalty. 

Get KdB on for Gundogan asap, they're strolling past him. Feel they'll go on to win this.

 

Missing Bernardo big time.

[mrbojangles]

Getting a bit hacked off with Poch giving grief to Delph for Kane getting injured. No way was that Delph's fault

[smokie36]

 Well deserved win that I thought.

 

If we can score away this really could be on.

 I called that right. We weren't good apart from 15 mins after HT before the goal. We never looked like scoring.

Delph didn't need to get in the way....just hope Kane is OK for the weekend.
