This is why i love football . Manchester City 💙

Semenyo is having such a very poor game so far. Not impressed at all

That Donnarumma error just sucked the life out of the stadium. Total mood killer, but we can’t let it ruin the night. 45 mins left to sort it out. Come on City.

Nico O'Reilly is such a big game player. Hope his injury is not that serious.

I'm absolutely loving this second half display. Come on City!

@Church_of_MCFC I can't imagine trying to follow the Champions League matches from Australia 😀

1:30 😭

@mdudley1894 I don't know, i'd like to see Rodri playing as an 8 rather than Reijnders in that position.

@katangmi But his passing range is better from deeper. And if he’s stationed higher up he’s never getting back to deal with counter attacks. Rodri needs to be in the 6 position or on the bench.

Why has Pep treated Nico Gonzalez this way? Ever since Rodri returned he has hardly got any chances. He was instrumental in the first half of the season. I always thought he could play together with Rodri in midfield and this could have plugged our defensive issues.

@mdudley1894 I think Rodri could play in a more advanced position with his better passing range and shooting ability if we play Nico Gonzalez in the DM position.

@katangmi It’s a trade off. Nico G is better defensively than this version of Rodri. But Rodri can do stuff on the ball that Nico G can’t. Would have like to see more of Nico G. His extra solidity would allow you to gamble with Cherki or Foden more.

Bernardo has been great this season but he is being overplayed.

I miss Kevin De Bruyne. Every passing game made me miss him more and more.

Hard-fought win. Three points are what’s needed at this stage of the season. On to the next game.

The halftime substitution of Khusanov was just too perfect from Pep, judging by the way the second half played out.

Putting on Nico Gonzalez would be rather good here.

Our left back trying to score himself rather than passing.

Khusanov could be really useful here. Dias's lack of pace has been concerning against pacy Newcastle forwards.

Nico O'Reilly is really something special. Wow.

Looks like the 23-24 season is happening all over again. But only if City can capitalise on this, since we have our own demons to fight first.

Well done, Brentford. If they had been more clinical, they could have won it.

Nico O'Reilly, you have a new fan in me.
