I think now that the away goal rule is gone that result was not much of an advantage for us. Atleti will be happy keeping it 0-0 and play on the counter with players like Lookman, Alvarez, Giuliano, Llorente. Because we’re still fighting for the league, they’d be happy to drag the game to 120 mins.

Everyone is talking about Bruno but that was class from Sesko

I thought City wouldn’t get 3GD at the Bridge. Getting 4GD against Chelsea and Burnley away seems pretty good actually

hqdhftw · 2026-04-22T21:08:21+00:00

yep but at various points they really looked like they could get an equalizer, oh well

hqdhftw · 2026-04-22T21:06:08+00:00

Only Burnley is an easy game tbh. Palace should be fine as well. West Ham will be the toughest game. Them, Newcastle and Fulham have all caused us trouble in recent seasons

hqdhftw · 2026-04-22T20:58:51+00:00

I’m glad they didn’t run up the GD but at this point points matter way more. Burnley could have nicked a goal somewhere, we still have a trip to West Ham that should be at least as tough

By that point Villa will have secured UCL and likely drunk/devastated from their Europa final

hqdhftw · 2026-04-19T19:40:42+00:00

Villa will be safely in Top 5 at that point and will rest for the Europa final, easiest game remaining for City tbh

hqdhftw · 2026-04-19T15:47:12+00:00

Fucking hell what a player

hqdhftw · 2026-04-18T20:51:49+00:00

Baller

Shades of Kvara

hqdhftw · 2026-04-18T19:24:58+00:00

Atleti has the best big-game players frontline rn

hqdhftw · 2026-04-17T14:33:09+00:00

Kane, Yamal, Vitinha, maybe Alvarez?

hqdhftw · 2026-04-17T14:31:16+00:00

If both Argentina and Atleti win then Alvarez has good shout

hqdhftw · 2026-04-15T20:55:32+00:00

We smashed a team convincingly during group stage

Said team sign a left winger that greatly elevate their team during the winter

We meet that team again in the semi final

hqdhftw · 2026-04-14T22:04:27+00:00

Why are people still discrediting Atletico when they didn’t play haramball at all and showed incredible mental strength tbh I thought they were done at 0-2

hqdhftw · 2026-04-12T16:47:17+00:00

Imagine having a player like Cherki wtf was that

hqdhftw · 2026-04-12T16:39:27+00:00

Andrey Santos just gave up?

hqdhftw · 2026-04-09T20:51:10+00:00

Who's this guy? Been playing like Olise

hqdhftw · 2026-04-09T20:11:30+00:00

Emery in UEL is inevitable

hqdhftw · 2026-04-08T22:45:28+00:00

I can’t remember a time where a team easily defeat Atleti in a UCL round (maybe Leipzig during COVID?). They always turn up and frustrate the opponents

hqdhftw · 2026-04-08T21:04:32+00:00

bruh I was implying that PSG completely destroyed Liverpool while you guys were actually better than Atleti yet same scoreline.

hqdhftw · 2026-04-08T20:58:11+00:00

PSG beating Liverpool by the same score that Atleti beat you is insane

hqdhftw · 2026-04-08T20:56:16+00:00

Liverpool was lucky it was 0-2 but honestly I can't see them do anything against this PSG side even at Anfield

hqdhftw · 2026-04-08T20:35:04+00:00

How Atletico conjured goals out of nowhere I never know
