Would love to know what Pep said to LJ at the end. He seemed very impressed

Praise indeed from Pep if what Lee`s just said is right.

What was it?

[Hellfire Corner]

Just listened to the managers interviews. I know they won, but just compare Pep’s words with Jose’s bitter comments the other week. Different class.

I`d give a lot of money for our Steve`s thoughts tonight!

"I quite like this. Wouldn't mind having it every week.

Think I'll give Lee the money he needs to get that De Bruyne fella."

They just asked Pep that & he denied it. Odd.

Just thinking the same. He sounded disappointed with his team but impressed by us.

[Ashtonboy]

So proud. Well done to all at the club and the magnificent  7800!

Never been so proud of my team in defeat. A magnificent effort.

Second that, but we won’t be 2nd on the 21st. Away goal will rule COYR

[ScottishRed]

Well, hopefully we will be back there next season........but not in a cup competition!

[Lanterne Rouge]

That Flint header. It just gets better every time you see it.

I saw it that he was asked if we were more difficult, and he was basically saying every game is difficult for different reasons.

I’m sure he said it privately, but he would not say it publicly to camera.

Whoosh.

Stoke Gifford obviously.

[cidered abroad]

I've been City for a very long time and this performance and result is up there with the really great landmark results in our history.

We're still in with a shout of our first major final since 1909. I'm very proud of everyone at the club and the 7680 who didn't stop all match.

[RumRed]

Which idiot said two legged semis were a bad idea? 

[finbarr_in_z]

This was not parked. That's significant.

[miketh2nd]

Its annoying to have conceded so late on but just shows how far we pushed them. In the end tired legs and the fact they can bring in agero and walker didnt help. 

Another day we could of scored on the break and gone to 2nd leg ahead. I think we played great always attacked when we could and didnt collapse once theuly drew level . we nearly stopped there winning streak , im soo proud to be a city fan games like these make the 6-0 drubbings/when we stuggled in league one and saw the most dire football .

COME ON CITY!

[Gert Mare]

Proud as you like. The roar of the 8,000 City fans brought a tear to my eye. Outstanding support and excellent battling performance. Up the City

[Garland-sweden]

Really well done City!!! MC one of the best teams in Europe! We should have 1-1, never mind, so proud. Always believe COYR!!!

[wendyredredrobin]

Gutsy performance again tonight.  They did give us a harder time than Manure though.  Would have been fantastic to come back 1-1 but 1-2 not so bad especially with the away goal.

Thought we gave the a bit too much room in the second half, but we had our chances in the first.

This game is far from over 

[Southport Red]

This is how far we have come. 

Befire the gane, I would have been proud to lose 3-0. As ut was ut was much better than that and it feels gutting. That is how good this team is. There were time we really scared them.
