UEFA Champions League 2013/14 Thread

City were schooled last night. Bayern really dominated proceedings and City were lucky it was only 3-1.

Hart is in shocking form. What is it with England keepers being so schit?

He's been crap for around a season now. He just doesn't get that much flack because he was England's golden boy. He gets beaten from outside the box so often it's unreal.

Got to agree, he has also been spared because City have a good defence. If he played for a weaker team, you would see more mistakes IMO

Is everyone seeing what I am seeing, that English teams in general are going to schit. Or is it just the competition itself, because City has never performed in this competition.

I see Hart is getting some stick this morning. Goalkeeper's confidence is a fragile thing. Will be interesting to see if he can turn things around.

It's a very fine line between confidence and arrogance and when you start crossing that line then you either need the that extra ability that allows you to be arrogant or mistakes soon become the norm. The dude also doesn't have any serious competition at club or international level. I can't see Roy Hodgson dropping him soon - he just doesn't appear to have the proverbial balls required to make those big calls. Pellegrini didn't single him out after the game so doubt he'll be dropping him anytime soon either. I'm guessing we'll see a few more clangers before something changes.

Take Szczesny last season. His arrogance started to turn into avoidable mistakes and Wenger threw Fabianski in for a few games. Made a huge difference to Szczesny's performances once he was back in the team.

Complacency ... it's a bitch :D

It's Wenger's job to keep it on there minds.

Just show them hightlights of that Arsenal/Newcastle game. I still spend 50% of weekly therapy time discussing that day.
