if you want to talk about beating teams like city

just look what our top attacking players like lautaro and thuram were playing

and then look at our bench with taremi and arna, and with correa in basement

Barella was brilliant and deserves MOTM. I, however, voted for Augusto he held his own for the most part for the entire 90min, against two different "wingers".

We did very good and certainly did not deserve to lose. Except a couple of moments, we managed to stop City as well we had some very good movements in our attacks.

As opposed to monza, this is a draw I can live with. This weekend's going to be interesting. Milan for sure will looking to spoil things so We need to have this same mentality going into that game. Hopefully since ucl kicked off the team will get into that rythm we had for much of last year and year before.

Looking at highlights (wasn't able to watch the game), it looks like the usuall debacle. Just need more precision in the final area, we can find and hit that open space but in the area we lose it. I know we're not city but just a bit more and we could be getting goals more regularly. In general We did well today, proud of the team and getting a point at the etihad is tough for anyone. Great job lads.

When teams are more open it plays better for us, as opposed to defensive teams like monza where our 1d "lob in the ball from dimarco" doesn't work. You need 1->2 quick triangulations direct through the box for those teams.

Low stakes game so everyone is happy about being equal with City but if this was a knockout game everyone would be straight up fuming about our finishing.

Thuram shoots like he didn't eat anything for the past week. When you are allowed only two shots on target per entire game, you need to make those count.

Very frustrating from all players involved. We're so close to being a CL giant if only we could finish our chances. I used to say we need 20 chances to score, but it seems like 20 was an understatement!

Yeah, I predicted that 0-0 will be the realistically best outcome here, considering that we defend well, but on the other hand we have no one to score a goal to save their own lives. That Darmian backheel in City's box gave me aneurysm.

Barella and Sommer were great. Also, Carlos and Bisseck solid.

Since both could've won it, I'll take this goalless draw. The whole game was balanced on who will score first.

Can't wait for the Arsenal match.

I don’t really think the chances in either ends were massive so 0-0 is honestly the right result. Barella was definitely the best on the pitch, again, and it’s good to see he can step up when needed. Yeah Zielinski look like he might replace Miki down the road, either way it also means we won’t risk burning either out, which is a massive plus, that can’t be underestimated
