Honestly what can Juve do against a top performing City team? Ronaldo needs chances to win games, he ain't gonna play make around them. City starve them of the ball and eventually break them down with their movement. Maybe Messi can have enough moments to stop them but honestly you guys last year were the only team that had the style to beat them but now you aren't gung-ho enough to do the same. If they play at their best for the rest of the season they win all 4 trophies, simple as. Look at their bench FFS, no one can match that strength in depth and game changers.
 
This is the first time I've seen Atletico under the cosh in this competition, since the away game at Bayern they lost 2-1.

They went through in that game. Very possible this ends 3-1
 
Atleti so unambitious. Do they really want to take the chance of trying to soak up all this pressure without applying some of their own?
 
Morata is so pathetic throwing himself to the ground at every opportunity.
 
Is Cancelo always this good?

Simeone should have matched their 3-5-2 with 3 center backs and stretched the full backs to contain the cross origin. Coaches are too stiff with their tactics.
 
‘In a freak accident unforeseen by everyone, the draw for the Checkatrade Trophy and Champions League quarter finals was made in adjacent rooms.

To add to the unfortunate events, one name snuck it’s way into the Champions League draw, after being drawn, perplexed and bemused faces filled the room. However, official adjudication has deemed the draw fair and binding.

Man City see themselves play away to Lincoln City in the Champions league quarter final.

Juventus travel to Portsmouth for the Checkatrade semi-final.

More to follow...’

Jesus you seriously overrating City.

Pep’s sides have been brutally exposed in the last few years against the elite sides. A team with attacking quality can exploit the space they leave.
 
Feck off Chiellini, should be a fecking yellow.

Maybe I do but they have a stupid ability to make teams seem like they don't belong on the same pitch as them. At their best they beat any team in Europe and for the most part make it look easy.
 
Never thought Chiellini is the type to behave like that :lol:
 
Cancelo Has been so impressive every time I've seen him
