There certainly appears to be some Man City Champions League bad juju afoot.
Or it could be that Pep made some weird subs and they just bottled it.
We're all accustomed to the term "Spursy".
In the Champions League City get shook up and go "Pepsy".
Last night was Pepsy Max.
Pep’s repeated failure is down to his very poor tactical nous and his repeated desire to prove that it’s him, not the players, who are to be credited with City’s success. Subbing de bruyne last night shows what an incompetent monkey he is. Arrogant fool.
A decent striker instead of wasting 100m over the incredible diving grealish may have swung it their way.

Liverpool absolutely living rent free in his head
Taking off players of the best abilities (notice how I didn’t say best players on the pitch) with Newcastle on Sunday in mind. You’re in a CL semi final at the bernabeu ffs

If they paid that extra 50m for one they might’ve been on for the quad
I think those evil jinns sent by those Africans have made him make weird substitutions.
The subs meant ET was difficult. But the team out should have seen it through without needing to get to that stage - we scored straight after one sub, and I actually thought Cancelo (who started) let us down for their equaliser
Pep was slightly arrogant in the subs he made, most competent coaches would have been looking to stiffen up the midfield or bring in an extra defender, but no Pep brought on Grealish who to be fair actually played really well.
In the opposite corner Ancelotti took advantage of this and exploited the gaps City allowed in trying to win by three goals rather than two.
For my money City are class but Pep let them down big style last night.
I don’t really have a problem with Grealish coming on at that stage. He holds the ball and draws fouls. Likewise, KDB had to come off.
I think Pep has made some questionable decisions in the CL, but can’t really take the blame for the 2 goals before FT. As I say, had Cancelo been concentrating they wouldn’t have equalised.
