Of course bruyne isn't a novice but the whole team are novice at playing Pep style compared to Barca.

pamcode:
All you mentioned up there are signs of an unblended team and was due to the off - ball marking of Barca meaning there was hardly no time to look around to release the ball to others you got to have a mental position of where your team mates are and Release quickly.

pamcode:
Look at the 2nd Gif for example. First guy passed to his mate and was quickly pressured by Barca players, fellow panicked and tried to quickly pass but he was dispossessed, am sure when he received the pass he had no immediate person in mind to pass to.

pamcode:
last two of Messi came from a city player misplacing a pass to his team mate. To me they haven't quite mastered the art of passing the ball under pressure and to make things worse they met the masters of the style.

pamcode:
Yeah they lost but at least not this bad and their past meetings took place in the 2nd round and higher. In the past they lost because they were out played yesterday they lost because they made silly errors trying to play a style the other team were better at.

You mean Ambassadors Christian fellowship behind that Catholic church(maybe St Jude) on Toyin street. There used to be one cybercafe around there Easysurf na there I dey go browse actually na there I learnt to use the internet perfectly before yahoo boys chase us out with their use of email extractor that was hogging the bandwidth. Before overnight browsing I usually fellowship there and donate the little non browsing cash to epp the ministry

Is it Legacy School for Shasha road almost opposite CKC church field where you dey go smoke igbo or use incense to praise God

raumdeuter:
Those places have been there for ages and every guy man in that axis suppose know those place. WHat you were doing in those places is what you should tell us, Me I was just passing the shortcut from Ikeja underbridge to the market. I didnt look left nor right and I covered my ears so I didnt hear any "Customer how far na?", I am sure you cant say the same

larride:
I have been going through all the comment since the match ended and no one has actually pointed out the tactics which Pep used in this particular match.

donjazet:
Could u please give me a little tutorial on how you posts gifs or attach images directly in your posts. I would appreciate.

LOSS? I'm not a bloody shitty fan....


its funlord mofo.....

BossKratos:
"Fernandinho is well known for his blistering pace and ability to shoot from long distances. He is described as "A DEFENSIVE MIDFIELDER with a box to box style of play, contributing in large part to the defense and the attack. With a powerful shot and great passing range,
Fernandinho has played an important part in
breaking up opposition attacks and creating
goal scoring opportunities"

You know what he is mate....stop with the gimmicks!

bigkesh:
And when you are a man down against Barca at camp nou every normal being who isn't an extremist like Pep would close the shop and hope to hit on the counter....
That he even came out and allowed Barca a lot of space with a numerical disadvantage shows he is a dunce...


Like we have not seen a team beat barca with a red card..


It could have easily been 7,Neymar miss PK sef.....This is Pep in every big game,embarrassing score lines from all angles

Ibime:
3 months ago after Man City's first two matches, me and my guy had discussed that we can't wait to see City face Barca, they will get hammered.

I don't need to speculate what I already know as facts. It would be naive of me to watch City doing initial gra gra in the first 30 mins, then when they inevitably get soundly beaten, act all shocked like #haneveresperredit.

After your criticisms of Jose tactics against Liverpool, this was the perfect opportunity to show ninjas how a manager should approach big games. Pepper never rest, you started hailing Peps tactics upandan because of initial gra gra, only to find they got the disgrace of their life. Don't tell me youneveresperredit!

donjazet:
I guess you were trying a subtle shade/dig but boy am I glad it backfired
Fernandinho played dm today, I don't know what you are saying.
As for your earlier statement about balance. Chelsea is very much imbalanced but I am glad conte has discovered a unique formation that tries to bring out the best of this squad.

Ibime:
Maybe you possess little sense of danger, or little sense of space on a football pitch.

I can watch a match where a team look to be playing well and know thet will get hammered just by the amount of space they afford the opponent. Pep specialised in that whenever he took Bayern to face Barca.

bigkesh:
See Messi,Neymar,Iniesta and Suarez moving in acres of space and some people are trying to tell us about sexy football


You have a weak defence against the best attack there is,and a midfield that can't stand your opponent's and you come out all pressing and attacking to subscribe to one yeye ideology of football.......
Oga park the bus like a boss

You have Messi and co running at your defenders with so much space,what tactics is that?

Ibime:
I ain't watching the match but I'm seeing the scores. It's 4-0 my nigga!!

SailorXY:
the kind L wey dey nihilist neck this night eh, na only forklift fit comot am.

larride:
No you are the one that goofed and looking for an escape route.

The difference is that Fernandinho usually play as a DM for City while KDB was just used as a false nine in this particular match.

whether Pep use 4-1-4-1 or 4-2-3-1, Fernandinho either plays as the DM or as the B2B if Fernando is on the pitch, claiming otherwise means you don't watch any City matches or you just want to argue for fun.

Show/List any match/matches where Fernandinho plays as the CM.

Thank you.

Ibime:
Chelsea has never lost 3-0 to Barca even with 10 men.

Tactics ko, tictacs ni.

larride:
Whatever rocks your boat man.

Even when transfermarkt claim he does play as DM, yet baba Nihilist won't agree he's a DM but we should agree that he's a CM because transfermarkt says so.

You are good bro.

Cheers.

larride:
Take your L like a man bro.

Fernandinho plays as a DM considering the kind of formation they play. even your transfermarkt claims he plays as a DM.

This particular match that we are watching, Fernandinho plays as the DM.

Once again, take your L like a boss and walk away.

SailorXY:
so the games Fletcher partnered Carrick in defense & flanked by Valencia, SAF played with only one defender?

larride:
I repeat you goof, you should accept it and move on. Fernandinho has been playing the DM role in City for almost all his time there, I don't know why you have to argue against that really.

Even in this same match, he was the DM while Gundogan was the b2b.

I ask again, how did Pep not use a DM?

larride:
Baba, Fernandinho is a DM, nothing more, nothing else. You can't change that with your own word of the mouth. I really wish I would screenshot, I for show you how they describe him.

You goof, accept and move on.

Peace.
