I'm not sure. His goalscoring stats are insane. And that means something - a lot in fact. He's got a great team around him (but not the world's best team), but so have many other players in football history. No-one (apart from Messi of course) has managed to keep up scoring the way he does...

If De Gea leaves, isn't it likely that he would stay in Manchester?

That first goal was incredibly difficult to save. He played well tonight and made some crucial saves.

Decent is made be an understatement I admit. But it was straight at him and he himself was to blame for having moved too early in the wrong direction (though I know you have to gamble to some extent, but it still only counts if it's the correct one). The recovery was excellent.

Rakitic shot early on...

It's a decent save, though the recovery is what makes it impressive. But isn't the shot itself pretty much straight at him (but he moves anticipating)? So it's not like shouldn't have saved it....

Really did I? Let's see. Tata: Copa - final. Liga - 2nd. UCL - QF. Lucho (at this stage): Copa - final. Liga - 1st (we will finish at least 2nd this season; and we are 1st at this stage, better than last year). UCL - QF (almost certain to progress). So yes, Lucho has achieved as much at...

Irony? I'll point out that Lucho has achieved as much at this stage as Tata did (yes he had money to spend, but Tata had a younger Xaviesta and Puyol still around) and we've looked better. Copa - final both years. Liga - at least 2nd position this year. UCL - at least quarters once again.

Funny how Alba scratches his balls when he says "it's true" about himself.

No, not more important than half the team. But they had their best lineup, we missed one of our best players. And that showed.

James is far less important for them than Busi is for us. They were probably better off with Isco, Modric, and Kroos.

Make him the captain! He's really taken on the leader's mantle.

Madrid played better in the first half, but we really played better in the second. We could've scored tons of goals - Iker and Neymar saved them many times. Not sure what match people who say they played us off the pitch were watching. Plus, let's keep in mind that we had a game mid-week, while...

That's also a ridiculous claim. How many caps does he have for Spain? FFS

Neymar is getting ridiculous. Imagine if it was Pedro missing all those chances...

Huh? He was actually pretty good today in his cameo. At the moment Neymar is rubbish, so I wouldn't mind seeing more of Pedro actually.

Moutinho was so good tonight. I haven't seen him play much as of late, but if he plays at this level regularly, I wouldn't mind having him at barca - would fit in wonderfully.

My favourite one was, "Do they ever get bored of passing the ball to each other?" Erm... no. It's fun. You should try it.

Yeah haha. A very English thing to say. Still, I'm surprised. We've played well, but it seems City just can't make up their minds whether to press or not. And if not then they're leaving way too much space and playing too high up. They look so impotent. Not that I mind. So far the EPL has been...

Great half. Though pity those couple of unnecessary bookings. City have been incredibly poor. Really no better than a lower-mid LaLiga team. They look technically so limited and tactically naive. They're neither pressuring us properly nor parking the bus; instead they decided to serve as cones...
