25 minutes into the Bayern v Man City game. Bayern with 72 percent possession. They have more possession because the rarely attempt the dangerous ball. We have a new Barcelona guys.
General Football 2013/14
Think that's a bit unfair, they are killing City all over the pitch.
City are defending very deep and in numbers.
They are, and they are playing really well. No arguments there.
Up until two months ago they didn't really value possession for the sake of it though. They attempted the early, risky but potentially threatening, ball to either flank or to Mandzukic a lot. It meant less possession and more attacks from their opponents, but they gained opportunities to counter attack a lot more. I am not saying that this way of playing necessarily will be less successful, though it is highly likely after last season, but I think they are a lot less attractive to watch as a neutral.
Holy shit, Michael Owen is in the studio.
David James barnet is proper rascal.
Man City 1-0, Negredo. Bayern, predictably, look vulnerable the same way Barcelona do.
Bayern peno now. Muller makes it 1-1
Mandzukic 2-1.
Boateng. I know they look similar, but still...
BT Sport lied to me.
Nah, was Mandzukic. They look better with a proper striker on the pitch too.
Commentator just said that nobody expected Navas to be that quick. Do these guys even watch football?
Navas is going to be really good for Man City unfortunately.
They are mostly clueless.
Swansea dusting off Malmo 4-0. Rex, your boys are taking one hell of a beating.

He's electric.
Wish we signed him

Tea almost went down my windpipe when that "expert" dropped that gem.
Is David James really that thick?
It takes some doing to make McManaman sound intelligent.
