Man Utd Fans React to Man City Champions League Success
Pep is a world-class coach. He has seen it all in football. Even as a MANUTD fan, SportsFila admires Manchester City as a club and Pep as a coach. I hope next season the reds will do something more.
Congratulations to Manchester City on their achievements! Pep Guardiola has undoubtedly established himself as one of the greatest managers of all time, regardless of whether or not he achieved the treble. His impact on the game and his ability to transform teams is remarkable. Pep’s tactical genius, attention to detail, and commitment to beautiful, attacking football have consistently brought success to his teams. His track record, which includes numerous league titles and domestic cups, speaks for itself. Pep Guardiola’s influence on the game will be remembered for years to come, and he has certainly left an indelible mark on Manchester City’s history.
For sporting greatness to be achieved, there needs to be a defining moment. The Atatürk Olympic Stadium in Istanbul on Saturday was Manchester City’s, the scene where an obsession finally became reality and history was made.
Ever since Sheikh Mansour bin Zayed Al Nahyan and the Abu Dhabi United Group took ownership of the club in 2008, winning Europe’s premier cup competition had been the ultimate aim.
Hundreds of millions of dollars have been spent in the last 15 years, and controversy has surrounded the club, but now the Champions League is, finally, theirs after a 1-0 win over Inter Milan which will live long in the memory for the significance of the result, rather than the match itself.
This was not only a night when City won its first Champions League. In
Guardiola Wins Champions League as City Completes Treble
Seeing KDB got subed off brought back a feeling of De ja vu but it was always written in the stars that we were meant to win this trophy and what a season we’ve had successful completed the treble,this might just be the start of our dominance in Europe Com’on city.
Winning the champions league is one of the greatest feeling to ManCity fans. Winning the treble with the UCL cup makes it more sweeter after past failures in this competition.

Liverpool fan here. “I’m so envious of what Man City has become. Congratulations Cityzens, well deserved.
I must add, both goalkeepers were excellent in this match kudo to them.”
SportsFila.com reacts to Manchester City’s 1-0 win over Inter Milan in the UEFA Champions League Final and complete the 2nd English football club to win the European Treble.
Match was boring for like 60min, 1 real chance by Haaland. Most of the game felt like City was just testing Inter for weaknesses. Inter had the intensity but not the quality to really send it home. Well played City, even after losing KDB and the ref being on Inter Milan’s side during challenges, your quality spoke volumes.🏆👏👏👏
Onana is the type of keeper United need, dudes confidence on the ball is insanE.
United or Arsenal: Who CAN win the Premier League title first?
It was a final of fine margins. The chances between the two teams were just far and few. Inter really gave City a tough time contrary to most people’s expectation of a City thrashing, it became a narrow win at end. A big congrats to City for this historic win and for matching United’s treble achievement.
I found this game extremely tactical. I think the Inter press and their defending made it very difficult for city to play how they would have liked. The city players were nervous. Ultimately I really enjoyed the game because it was very tactical, but I guess these type of game isn’t to everyone liking especially those who hate or don’t understand or care for tactical games.

Derrick Ombasa: “We might say it is luck on City’s side, but one thing I will say is that City have finally learned how to WIN A FINAL!!! There is no beauty in how a final is a won. You just have to win it in any manner possible and today was an exhibit of just that. Congratulations to Pep and the team for doing us proud!”
A Man City fan speaks to SportsFila: “I am ecstatic that we won. No one expected the game to be as tight as as it was other than these pundits. Give credit to Inter for making it a fight. Inter sense of positioning and knowing when and who to press was magnificent. That created problems for city’s normal way of play. Inzaghi did an awesome job in setting his team up. These pundits, and all due respect to them, has this idea of analysing this game. This is not the premier league. It’s a once off game. Anything could have happened. Everyone played their part wether good or bad, including Haarland. Forget about the Madrid game, they did well when it needed to be. That’s it. Go Man City”
Alexis Mac Allister won’t fix Liverpool problems
Talking about the context of the game when they finally got over the line for the 1st time is crazy , we have all watched enough footbball to know that you dont always play your best game in a final , Man City have been so good this season they are a victim of their own standards . The finals was always going to be tough for a team that has never won it before . These guys wanted to see some standard 5 nil performancefrom city like it’s burnley or something . They fought for that one today and these pundits are mad because it wasnt one sided as they predicted.
Pep Guardiola Kissing His Beautiful Daughters: Viral Video
3-3 draw between Manchester United and Galatasaray in UEFA Champions League – Group A. They also analyze the performance of goalkeeper Andre Onana and the chances of Erik ten Hag’s side of advancing to the knockout stages.
Not saying Onana is done at Utd but surely ETH needs to give the back up a chance at this point. Even DDG needed to come out of the team briefly when he first came to the club. Gives him a chance to build his confidence away from the spot light. But TBH DDG was never this bad to begin with sm
Throwing away leads, basic mistakes and tonight, despite Onana performing better recently we might as well have had Jonny Evans in goal.
7 Biggest Manchester United Flops Of All Time
As much as I like eth, he caused our exit by bringing in a keeper not too familiar with EPL. In fact he should not have sent David away the way he did. He should have kept him and the duo should have competed. Onana errors contributed a lot to the exit
Tactically, I think ETH did pretty much everything correctly. Outside of Magelof not being good enough in general, the only criticism I can offer is that Mainoo should’ve come on for McGhost after he scored his goal. Solidify that midfield and shut everything down.

The keeper had a bad game and had a lot already this season which isn’t great but let’s hope he gets better as the season goes cause I remember when De Gea first came to United and he was not great as well but he matured, got stronger and became a great goalkeeper. But ETH needs to replace Onana for the next game and let him know that he needs to step it up.
David de Gea short-term fix Manchester United
As a United fan I have to disagree with the assessment of the performance. There was no control, no maturity. United give the ball away far too easily for this level. When you have less possession than a Sean Dyche team and then get 43% against Galatasaray, you’re not the technical side the manager wants to build. I feel sorry for Onana, he’s been doing much better recently. The mistakes he’s making are so basic it speaks to a mental problem. My hope is that Onana will feel much more comfortable when we develop into the team Ten Hag wants. Need to bring in ball-playing CBs and controller midfielders in the next two windows. Then we’ll see the real picture.
I honestly hope we finish bottom of the group so they can just focus on the domestic front. This team is poor to say the least and we will get knocked out in the second round even if we scale through by some miracle. So best not to, as for “O na na, whats my name” Don called it! He needs to reassess his priorities as a goalkeeper… now I’m ranting on YouTube, darn you ManUtd!

Can David de Gea be the short-term fix Manchester United needs? | If I was him I wouldn’t go back there after the way he was disrespected .. I can’t believe the management could be this bold and daft after the treatment they gave that guy.
Don’t do it!!! They decided you weren’t good enough and decided to get onana. Even if you took a pay cut, it would of been to facilitate onana. That’s tells you what you need to know
Of course teams have offered him contacts and he’s chosen to say no. He’s said very clearly he’ll go to club fighting to win things and unfortunately all the top clubs have keepers. He might come back when the right club wants him.
Can Man United make it out of UCL Group A?
Wonder if Man U is telling Onana to skip the African cup due to his recent poor performances. Otherwise they’re telling him his spot is at risk
United have no transfer strategy so this potential move makes 100% sense. Afterall they bought Mason Mount for 50 million to warm the bench.
Onana/getty images/
It will be a mess and destabilising if we bring him back.. Shoking how he was treated after 12 years. And we bought a young goalkeeper, surely he gets a chance and we still have Heaton I believe.. What’s the point anymore? 😆 We’re a joke!

De Gea deserved better treatment. He should plain down reject any offer or entertain the offer just to reject it. The Man Utd negotiators could not negotiate their way out of a brown paper bag, absolutely disgrace to their profession.
If they bring him back prep for a new manager. Cause ten hag is clearly incompetent.
And he’s been offered but he won’t take less than what he is worth, he’s a golden glove winner and a legend 🤷🏽. Onana can’t even distribute this season and can’t stop a beach ball.
Tottenham Topping the Premier League table
It’s a strange one this because de Gea priced himself out of a job. He wanted a contract worth more than than the £375k a week he was already getting, and Man United originally agreed to one, and then changed their mind, and I don’t blame them. He’s worth $75 million thanks to MUFC.
He was the World’s richest goalkeeper last season, and while he is a great goalkeeper, most pundits would name either Nuer or the recently retired Buffon as the greatest goalkeeper of the last 15 years, and most pundits would put the Brazilian duo Ederson and Becker as the best keepers in the Prem right now. What I’m saying is that at $75 million net worth de Gea could have afforded to be philosophical about it all and perhaps taken a pay cut.

Christian Eriksen joins Peter Schmeichel for a post-game interview after a Man of the Match performance after Manchester United’s 1-0 win over Copenhagen. Eriksen came in as a second-half substitute and assisted Harry Maguire’s game-winning goal.
Still can’t believe Eriksen plays for Man United, especially after we all know what happened to him. I still remember that day and honestly thought we’d lost him. So happy to see him around and still playing.
Eriksen reveals secrets on Man Utd New Star Rasmus Hojland
Glad to see Eriksen get his praise. He was always my favorite player at Spurs. Lack of competition in the squad forced him to regress a bit in his career. Barcelona/Real Madrid were interested at him at a time. Then he went to the demon Conte, who doesn’t know how to handle flair footballers. And of course after his health situation, happy he got to perform at Brentford, and for Ten Haag with his creative flair. Though now Man Utd have both Ambrabat, and Casemiro, should make him perform much better in a free role! Or at least backup to Bruno.
What Really Happened to Jadon Sancho and Ten Hag?
The only reason i dont see Eriksen starting is because it doesn’t always look like he can play a full match, hence ETH has to be wise regarding when he should put Eriksen in the game. But everytime he’s subbed on, the entire team breaths easier and gains that extra sense of control. A game that was otherwise frantic, uncoordinated, improvised and scrappy, was all turned around when Eriksen came on the pitch. Gosh I wish we could see more to him.

The midfield in the Derby has to be him, Brumo and Amrabat.. whenever Eriksen plays deeper, it releases Bruno.. this experiment of Bruno playing as a deep playmaker and Mctominey as a 10/Second Striker has clearly failed.
We know Eriksen can’t play 90 minutes, but ETH should try to start with him and find a comfortable lead before subbing him off. I don’t remember Bruno having any influence on the game, or in previous games, he is so panicked in possession unlike Mr.Cool here. I would swap them around and see what happens.
