seyoops4u:


Different games have different approach.
What they played yesterday was because they needed a win at least. And that doesn't mean they will win premier league or how many times have this won la poga?


And they only played better in the 2nd half of the match when they discovered they had everything to lose.

Tell yourself the truth.

If someone told you Atletico could play such a WONDERFUL ATTACKING FOOTBALL like that in the second half, would you have believed the person.

This is not the first time a team that needed to win is playing a match like their entire life depended on that particular match, but the manner in which a team like Man City was completely dominated is what i am reacting joyfully to.

How can this guy open his mouth to insult Simeone? As what exactly
Show some respect bro.

Angelfrost:


Guy... What are you saying na?!!

Abeg abeg... Put some respect to Pep Guardiola's name! Good or average squad, he will still excel!

I can't remember Guardiola excelling with an average squad, ever. His Barcelona team had a peak Xavi, Iniesta, Pique, Messi, Eto'o Alves and the likes. You can't call that ana average team.

His Bayern team was a treble winner the previous season before he took over. And his current Man City team is stacked with talents in all areas. Most teams will will be privileged to have his reserve team as their first team.

Remember when he just came to England and had Clichy, Sagna, Lescott and the likes? He went trophyless and just managed to qualify for the Champions league.

So, please don't overhype him by saying he will always excell with good or average team.

He's a world class manager though.

Richsteemit:


See this hater. Overated coach that has turn premier League to farmers league. Man city is getting that treble this season. I'm a man u fan. But I can never hate a world class coach and my mentor. Whenever I'm playing FIFA I always play like guardiola. Best coach in history. Thank God real Madrid is a attacking team. Dem go collect aam woto Woto.

Lol at Real Madrid go collect .....PSG and Chelsea said worse,we know how it ended

Every good manger have specific players that carry out their ideas,guardiola couldn't do anything with those players he met at city bcus they didn't suite what he wanted,vaya toure was a top player in the league and a very important team player but guadiola wanted to ditch him,give this man city players to another coach and he may not perform.
What makes a coach good is ability to visualize what you want and getting players that will suite your vision...lampard bought many good players but still flopped,ole bought players and flopped,klopp got this liverpool team and couldn't win anything till he got salah and dijk

That's a pure lie.

Man City was totally outplayed, outclassed, outmuscled and outshined by Atletico Madrid.

If Atletico Madrid were to be in the English Premier League, with their performance yesterday, they will be winning the league every season back to back with 10 games remaining...

E be like say na another match you watch. Was it not only in the second half that atletico Madrid tried to play ball?. How did they outclass man city? This your analysis get k leg

you no wise. Played nothing for 135 mins but suddenly outclassed them for 35 mins without a goal

Sweetplum:
I agree. Athletico's agberoism is superior to Chelsea own. That Savic should be given like 5 match ban.
Meanwhile Simeon is always scared to play attacking football.
His tactical genius doesn't involve attractive play. He started with 5-3-2 yesterday instead of a more positive formation since he's playing at home. See their mumu starting formation below.
He had Suarez, Matheus Cunha & others on bench but used 5 defenders with two more midfielders than can block. So na like 7 players dey defend.
That's why City survived the first half easily.
In fact, Simeon suppose use only Savic for defense cos the guy get energy to divide into like 5 people at once with the way he was fighting almost everyone yesterday.
Athletico must be probed. They are licking mpulumiri, smoking mat-tick, rophynol, taba, burukutu & sniffing laterine.
Cos their blood just dey hot always.

Na Athletico energy you take drop this your comment fa. Your choice of words na complete agbero package.

This is a very foolish statement that can only be made by hardened drunk or a drug addict.
ATM only had 2 shots on target.
With 53% as against 47% of city.
Yet you said city were outplayed with only two shots on target.
But city had the overall higher possession and passes completed in the full match.
Despite the injury and absence of key players,
City still won. And ATM were beaten home and away with more than 5 goals by Liverpool who are in the second place in the premiership.
No club in la Liga would make top four in premiership.
You can take that to the bank.
If ATM and Madrid and Barca were in the EPL, they would have said byes to UCL with their poor performance.

omoyankee3:
I stopped reading the article after this. Atletico Madrid completely outplayed Man City in the second half. Completely. This is biased journalism.

Does little performance on one leg out of the four legs matter?
ATM only reared their heads when man city had injury concerns.
City outperformed ATM.
ATM is a kid of below 3 years old to a mature adult city.
The difference is clear.
You lots keep crying of better performance. Yet city had more pass accuracy than ATM in second half.
You don't outperform someone In one leg.
Yo don't outperform someone with only just 2 shots on targets, and only 2 corners.
And yet the underperforming city had 60% match possession.
It is clear most of you started watching football yesterday.

DominionGreat:

It's obvious sense is far from you

Most of them are young junkies who began watching football newly.
It is not hard to know that the commenter you quoted is high on cheap, adulterated, and terminally dangerous deugs.

So any league pep is, is a farmer league apart from la Liga?
Only a misguided person is capable of making such outlandish statement.

AAA593:
First leg- city outplayed ATM First and second half with beautiful football .

Second leg - City outplayed ATM in the first half. ATM played rugby/UFA football in the second half and una no allow people to hear word

Even in the second half of the second leg.
They had close stats.
City were too tired to carry out their attack.
Injury concerns also contributed to such uninspiring attack.
Once they reached ATM's box, they just miscued.
ATM had 2 on target shots Vs city 1 on target shots.
Yet second half: ATM had 53% and city 47%.
Overall: ATM 40 Vs city 60%.

Vinnie2000:



When PSG went to play against Real madrid at Santiago Bernabeu, Did they play defensively to protect dier 1 0 lead?

Man City were simply Outclassed! They only shine when they meet Burnley and Newcastle!

I can see a pained hater that has disjointed disdain for city's dominance.
City won Madrid (Madrid even won la Liga that year) home and away in last two UCL.
And they won ATM convincedly. They played better. City only relaxed in the second half of second leg because of injury concerns. ATM play foolish and rough football. City outplayed them.
Only contemptuous, and harebrained individual sees otherwise.

Angelfrost:


That's not even the point... Touts or not, they were by far the better team last night. Totally outplayed City! Even Pep was evidently scared!

The needed equalizer was just hanging around, even prior to that needless tackle that ended their game with the Red card.

You can be touts, but that shouldn't stop you from calming down and capitalizing on a game you clearly were in control of.

Simeone and Atletico didn't try at all!

Well, City are still better off entertaining us against Madrid! At least we will have a free flowing game of 2 ties.

City were outplayed, but had more chances made, had more ball possession, had more corner kicks, more passes created, and more passes accuracy.
City even hit the bar. Yet you said city were outplayed? I am sure you watched American football. Or your mental capacity couldn't make adequate qualifications of the city's match.

stop analysing football, u are obviously bad at it. Simeone is the most overated coach on earth, man plays negative football. How can a coach in this century line up 5-5-0 in football, is that fear or cowardice? Atletico won't win even carabao cup if they were in EPL. They are similar to Burnley

Bunch of softies nowadays. Someone said Atm have a negative image in football? Real Madrid almost lost due to their laid back style. Barca lost twice in their return leg against Roma and Liverpool. If every winning team is hosting a return leg, I’ll have my players perform Simone moves. Felipe’s episode against Foden was unnecessary, otherwise everything else was perfect. Mancity were lucky.

Football has gone to the sissy’s nowadays.
