I wouldn't read too much into this game Real had the better start, City scored a good goal and then Real have just been passive and let City have the ball I assume Real don't want to go all out because a 1-0 loss isn't the worst result for them as they'll do them at the Bernabeu If we press City like we know we can then we can cause them problems

Agreed Against Birmingham whilst that player was getting treatment you could see our players moving to stay warm

He's banged that drum for years Grealish barely runs in games anyway since joining City, takes a few steps and then passes backwards/sidewards

Same but Clattenburg said the technology is based off players and not the ball, so they have to resort to the manual method

Goal stands and rightly so, if it takes that long then it's on

I thought semi automated was meant to be proper quick?

Looks onside but it's Real Vardrid so who knows

Grealish did well I think it could do with staying like this, makes City tired and also gives them something to play for in the 2nd leg

Haaland gives City the lead

City going to get ruined at the Bernabeu (they'll probably lose tonight as well)

No need for us to go with our second line, a week later is West Ham away and then another week later is LC Final, although it takes place a few days after we play Liverpool in the league

Decent draw, when it could have been worse or better than it sits in the decent draw for me especially as it is at home I actually would have liked to play City at home, much rather face them now before Rodri returns and/or they get their act together As for Brighton, whilst they did beat us at home we were the better side and since then we've improved so I am quietly confident for this one

I just wouldn't extend Wilson I'd trust Osula/Gordon as cover up front and if the RW we sign is someone like Mbuemo then he could cover up front too I just see no value in keeping Wilson around, fairly high wages, limited availability and takes up a valuable squad space If Osula isn't ready and is going to be sent on loan then sign a striker

I don't want us to be compromising, get as good a RW we can get and medium to long term it would be better Our starting eleven needs to have as many purples as possible

No, it would be the exception rather than the rule But I'll say this now, there is absolutely next to no chance he remains injury free for the rest of the season, it's a shame but we have enough evidence to know how this will go

There is no gambling with Wilson's injury, he's made of glass, he gets injured all the time. It's as close to something being nailed on as you can get When he's played he's been mint for us, good servant, we should thank him for his time and move on

They aren't facing each other though (well there is a slight chance but won't know that until later) I actually think a home draw against someone like Villa/City/Man U would be best

Only been a few days since Mackems adopted Liverpool as their team, turned them into losers already

Get in, lovely finish from Mitoma that

Was just relieved when the final whistle went, was all sorts of emotions through that First half Birmingham played well combined with getting away with some kicking, second half they seemed to only focus on kicking us all over

The game is turning into a fight, absolute thugs

Longstaff pass the ball you weapon

He's just terrible nowadays Had a stint when he offered us something but right now he's a hindrance

And the ref has let them get away with it

That goal was ridiculous, fair play
