Le passé, non seulement n'est pas fugace, il reste sur place (Michael White), Wednesday, 22 January 2014 23:00 (ten years ago) link

I think I vaguely remember seeing an even worse shoot out than this, but only once. Was it Liverpool-Cardiff?

psht when was the last time a title challenging side like City lost a cup final to a Northern relegation fodder club led by a young Spanish-speaking manager who spent a large portion of his playing career in England

eternal kudos to the beeb for getting the football league show boys to rvw that shite

I was in a pub this evening, full of people who weren't watching the football really, until the penalty shootout when the entire pub galvanised in lolling at shite penalties and lolling at Man Utd.

Also I insisted before the shootout started that Ki was absolutely taking one and going to stick it away, and my mates were all "ha, everyone's shite, you're wrong". DON'T THINK SO.

Also also, it transpired that my mate sneakily stuck an inplay bet on Sunderland to qualify just before extra time started, a fiver at 5/1, so when we all finished lolling at Man U the drinks were

Basically, that is what watching football in a pub should be like - a mixture of calling shit right for kudos, getting free beer, and Man Utd being crap.

Top day. Cheers Moyes!

Drinks were on him, that should say.

Oh aye, with an added bonus of us all looking like extras in a terrible beer advert when said mate's joy turned to despair when Man U scored to take it to penalties, when he'd thought his money was safe on a Sunderland win.

Also, comedy goalkeeping.

Hmm is this worth gettin out the bath for

Klata right about Borini all along

The presence of Demichellis in this team is allowing Kompany to get away with an awful lot of substandard performances without attracting negative comment. Imo

Causal possibility?

politically autocorrect (darraghmac), Sunday, 2 March 2014 14:31 (ten years ago) link

Possibly

Has Dzeko touched the ball yet?

none of the hacks who went after demichelis after his stupid penalty vs barcelona mentioned it was kompany's failure to keep to the line that left messi onside

Joyeux animaux de la misère (nakhchivan), Sunday, 2 March 2014 14:40 (ten years ago) link

i still distrust rafael honigstein after he compared dzeko to rvp as one of those rare #9s who can act as a playmaker and focal point for the rest of the attack

he has a fairly good scoring record with city but his general play is fairly crap, especially compared to negredo

Joyeux animaux de la misère (nakhchivan), Sunday, 2 March 2014 14:59 (ten years ago) link

Jesus what a goal

pandemic, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:12 (ten years ago) link

lol

2 goals 2 mins.

pandemic, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:14 (ten years ago) link

technique from Nasri there

All 3 goals completely unsaveable

pandemic, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:14 (ten years ago) link

Actually think that was a penalty tbh

pandemic, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:17 (ten years ago) link

Fucking hate these cunts at this stage.

Matt DC, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:24 (ten years ago) link

City have been terrible since the goal. Still want them to win tho.

pandemic, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:31 (ten years ago) link

pitiful from Fletcher

Ismael Klata, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:46 (ten years ago) link

It really really was

Guys in the sky studio so begrudging and bitter. Love it.

pandemic, Sunday, 2 March 2014 15:58 (ten years ago) link

I kind of resent Navas for going near post and spoiling the aesthetic perfection of those goals

Ismael Klata, Sunday, 2 March 2014 16:19 (ten years ago) link

seven years pass...

lmao

best substitution ever

imago, Sunday, 27 February 2022 19:34 (two years ago) link

literally noone on ilx could have done worse than kepa today. fail to save any of 11 pens and then blast one over the bar. was a p good game on the whole.

oscar bravo, Sunday, 27 February 2022 21:33 (two years ago) link

I saved more penalties than he did this weekend, and he faced 10 more than me #braggin'
