Tashy - I don't have BT so didn't see the match last night. What sort of player is Gundogan? I don't know much about him other than he is highly regarded. Is he a box to box player, defensive, attacking, a passer? Give me a low down.

Agree with this summation, watched the game and a bit like last yr v Madrid they were too respectful early on, amazing how much confidence and zip the equalizing first goal gave City, was like watching 2 different teams either side of that goal. Apprently Messi had a falling out with a city player in the tunnel, good - those Barca primadonnas need a reality check sometimes, Barca looked pretty ordinary last night. Hopefully a club from outwith Spain can win ECL this year, Man City and Arsenal must have a decent shout of winning this year, Bayern will figure as usual. Tottenham and Leicester should qualify but cant see them going further than last 8, Celtic have done ok in a tough group but wont qualify for either ECL or Europa league I think given their remaining fixtures.What a night, what a fantastic night. champs league has finally arrived at the emptyhad. First half just felt like city were giving Barca far to much respect and it was screaming for a simple ball over the top. The ref was dire proper dire. Second half was just wow, and emphasised what I said earlier in this blog that City can at times play some of the best football I have seen. The first half showed the worst of City.
Cheers Pep.
I'm really gutted for Danny Ings.
No youngster deserves the run of bad luck he seems to be in.
I genuinely wish him a full and speedy recovery :thup:.

Certainly agree it lifts the away team, definitely backfiring at the moment.Spurs suffering from Wembley syndrome. It doesn't feel like home ( because it isn't) and i am sure the away team raise their game as well.

The result isn't down to "Wembley syndrome" more the case of a very inexperienced side and manager. European football is another step up from PL football and they're struggling.
As a Club they've played in Europe in 9 of the last 10 seasons, so not completely inexperienced, but agreed some players will be.The result isn't down to "Wembley syndrome" more the case of a very inexperienced side and manager.
