David Silva absolutely invisible tonight. Aguero had a shocker too. And Pep after his team does nothing of note makes a double substitution to bring on de Bruyne and Sané ... on 89 minutes.
I assume neither David Silva or Fernandinho will be at Man City at the start of next season as both have just started to tip over.  No doubt City will make a couple of heavyweight summer signings (although they've missed out on Jorginho and Frenkie de Jong recently so it's not a given) but replacing that much quality and experience won't be easy.

I mean it's the luck of the draw, of course, but the hilarious thing is their tragic tantrums about our "luck" this season. Irony deficiency is off the chart.

I don't buy the "the luck of the draw" BS..... Qatar got the world cup ffs football is corrupt to the core and these fuckers have bottomless pockets.

Massive pressure on cardigan now. The sheiks only care about the CL, they want it so fucking bad and Pep will be shitting his boots now.

Gonna be so distracted playing Palace and under so much pressure not to fuck both up. Pep consistently fucks up when he's under pressure and he'll be under a shit ton now.

I think that rotation before the game and arguably through the game shows Guardiola has no intention of taking his eye off the PL. He saves Aguero’s legs and doesn’t bring KDB or Sane on until 89 minutes - he is trying to manage his squad to go hard in both the League and CL, I just think it didn’t quite work last night. Maybe the difference was a Bernardo Silva or Sane for Mahrez last night but they are still right in this tie. If they can replicate the first 30 mins v Liverpool (2nd leg) then Spurs are done for IMO. They seem to have run out of midfielders at the wrong time and now injuries have hit them.

Any loss can only be a good thing.

Didn't see the match but team didn't seem their best 11.

Spurs can get a result next week and have better prep with a home match v Huddersfield.

Game over in 90 minutes would be better, league game is 3 days later and City have far better options for rotating, hopefully they take their eye of the game on Sunday though
This is exactly how I see it.  We don’t want extra time next week because that will weaken Spurs for the league game.  If City were playing someone else then that would be different but I see no benefit to them going to extra time.

Like you say, hopefully they take their eyes of the prize this Sunday against Palace.
