leave the phone line commentary on please

It would sound stupid with say....Michael Owen, or Niall Quinn. It's not only classic because of the sound, but also because of George Hamilton!

Reminds me of Arsenal v Valencia cup winners cup final 1980

Super-Rush

Sound quality reminds me of Mexico 86.

The refereeing is of similar quality.

klose

Pundits seem to find it hard to accept for some reason that this isn't the same barca side from a few years ago

deafroadrunner

Can see city getting a red in this

He should do the 'One small step for man...' quote just to f*ck with everyone.

Ronnie is annoying me

If he doesn't watch much foreign football, like giles, fair enough, but don't try and commentate on it like you do ronnie.

keith16

All I need now is some sort of instagram filter for my telly for the complete retro experience.

Jaysus rte sound is all over the place.

Rayne Wooney

Game needs Navas for Nasri

double GG

He has to hit the target there

Tinie

Christ just turn off the commentary RTE. Fix it then bring it back.

Hank Scorpio

Aguero hasn't had a sniff

Kylo Ren

Do the commentators sound like they're from the 1920's?

George Hamilton and Ronnie Whealan? They are from the 1920s

Tinie

What a goal that would have been. Another tame shot from Samir

Rayne Wooney

Great move

City can get something here I think

Hank Scorpio

Huge chance there

GavRedKing

That should have been 1-0 City.

Washington Irving

Jeez, Samir. Say it, don't spray it

Mushy

At least City are making a game of this and could score. If they score first it will be interesting.

Kompany needs to be very careful now too!

LightningBlue

What was that Milner?

stiffler123

Unlucky Nasri.

Turtyturd

Not a bad first half, good to see the losing team going for it after last night's game.

nasri is extremely average also. hard to believe he gets his game in a top team

blueser

Right; we've lulled Barca into a false sense of security in that first half. Time to hit them with both barrels now.....unleash Edin!!!

Maybe but i also find that the pundits are going out of their way to talk the english clubs up. Yes Barca lost at the weekend but so did City, to Wigan and Arsenal never had a hope yesterday, nevermind some freak result a year before

How did Milner ever forge a career as a wide player?

He seems to have none of the attributes you would normally associate with a wide player. That guy should never be on the wing.

Alpha Dog 1

Dunphy looks like he's just come off a night on the town.

Rezident

Hah! Even liam admits ronnie is talking nonsense.

Is this a joke?

passremarkable

city need to throw on negredo

SEPT 23 1989

sergio did not get a touch of the ball

Moneymaker

This commentary is nostalgic.

Rayne Wooney

Surely Aguero injured

Nasri was the one to take off

SEPT 23 1989

more theatrics:rolleyes:

Rezident

He is so good. And he makes it look easy.

Mushy

The ball is glued to his feet!

Turtyturd

Lescott is terrified....Messi should give him 2 for flinching there.

GavRedKing

Lescott is dirt. Unlucky Messi.

What a save by Valdes f**k me

LightningBlue

Brilliant save by Valdes

SEPT 23 1989

what a save

Rezident

Great save.

Mushy

If Kompany makes one more foul he has to go!
