No way in hell he makes it, question would be could Spurs have made a chance out of it but I wouldn't bank on that.

Exactly this. Can't believe Sky are making this a thing.

Will be a tough match 

Even though City need another central striker (will probably get Haaland in the summer) I think they'll do it this year. I've 100 quid on them so they better do it! Big smile

McKay has also accepted the inevitable LOL
Wings? They're only the band The Beatles could have been.

Are City not favourites in the PSG tie especially if Mbappe is out? 

In fairness, I'd be cautious like yourself if United were in the same position tbh. Wink

Great header but poor marking from Spurs.

The scorer Laporte should have been sent off earlier though for two yellow cards.

If it was a Boxing match they would have stopped it already.

I’d bring on Bale and try and get them on the counterattack.
Leave son and Bale up and bring Kane into the midfield and just try and get them on the break. 

City won’t miss these chances forever. 

Edit: City 1-0 but it could have been 5-0. 

Another double for City at least. 

6 league cups in 8 years.

Kane starts for Spurs.

Pep has picked a strong team.
I was hoping Jesus / Zinchenko / Mandy would be starting. No such luck. 

City win 2-0 me thinks.

Stones alongside him has been solid too. Rightly has taken Laporte's place
He looks a proper leader too, seems to do a lot of talking and not afraid to talk to senior players. Don't often see that from a young new signing.
