OR THEY MIGHT BE SO DEMORALIZED THAT THEY TOTALLY COLLAPSE

Facts

But I guess they felt obliged to. Had they appointed Poch and he went on a losing streak as expected with this Man U squad everyone would be saying OGS was the natural choice etc

On paper tho it’s Poch. That’s a no brainer. Maybe OGS will prove his mettle over time if they stick with him and back him...I personally would’ve went with the safer option.

Poch would have finished the season with Spurs. So that’s not really an excuse. It was a cowardly move that probably won’t work but we’ll see.

I don't think he got outcoached here. There's not much you can do when your defenders just decide to fall asleep

Waiting too long to bring on Sane and KDB in the first leg and slowing the game down in the last 10 minutes + stoppage time today were definite coaching errors. They "scored" late but only after a quick counter with Spurs defenders out of position and on their heels.

Man...I didn’t watch the game. I’m not a Man City fan nor Tottenham fan but it sucks for City to lose like that. I’m starting to not be a fan of the aggregate format but that is what makes soccer unique.

I think he was far too cautious in the first leg. There is no reason why KDB shouldn't have come on at half time or even started. Mahrez was a joke. Should have had Sane instead of him.

One of the great games I've ever seen

Nah you reaching. Spurs were thoroughly outplayed.

Man City made mistakes and Spurs took advantage and were lucky.

That's not getting out coached.

This. You can't plan for a world class defender to just fukk up for 10 minutes

Nah breh, a 1 nil first leg loss should never have been a factor here. They played well enough to exorcise any ghosts from the first leg, just got REALLY unlucky

 

[ThrobbingHood]

It pains me to say it but congrats to Spurs.. it was the battle of the bottlers...


However, with no Kane, Son suspended in the first leg and with Lloris in goal? Ajax are going to tuck you in easily.

I swear the champions league anthem sounds louder after games like this

Let's be real here. Joflop Fraudiola flopped. First leg was shocking, Sane came on late, City didn't even get one away goal, which I knew would come back to bite them. De Bruyne come on late too.

Second leg, Sane come on late yet again. He seems to get mighty shook around this stage of the CL. How you gon be shook of Tottenham of all teams?

Absolute fraud who can't win CL's without Messi. Dude had a stacked Bayern team and still flopped. Unbelievable. Might be the most fraudulent manager the world as witnessed.

buh buh tiki - taka, breh if you don't get that shyt outta here. Tiki - taka without Messi is like a car without wheels.

Pep bout to unleash the flutes and spend 80 billion this summer

City Academy needs to find the most talented youngsters and administer HGH to create the next Messi.
