CL Quarter Final MCFC v Chelsea

[Kinkys Left Foot]

They tried to give us Barca again but we had to settle for Chelsea so they made sure we got Barca in the Semis. lol

Horrendous draw - couldn't have been worse.

Is what it is.

That’s even less of an exciting draw than when the men’s first European game in 20 years was TNS in north wales

This means we play Chelsea about 17 times next month

4 times on the trot which is madness.

15/03 Cup final
18 or 19/03 UCL1
23/03 WSL
26 or 27/03 UCL2

Law of averages is City win one of those & if they play like they did at Yernited & Arse in the cup games, then they have a chance. Defend like they did in the corresponding WSL fixtures, then it could get ugly.

We’ll win the one that is least damaging to Chelsea that’ll be the league game ..

Assuming we get past Leicester at the weekend the next round of the FA cup games will be next month as well won’t it? Knowing our luck it’ll be Chelsea again!

Is there any chance Lauren Hemp will be back for these games ?

I saw an image the other day of her back in training (this may have just been light running) but allowing for a few weeks to get her upto speed, you'd like to think she'll be available for that period of fixtures.

Next round is scheduled for Sun 9th March, so IF we can get past Leicester, then we could play Chelsea 5 times in a row! Eeek!

Now there's a cheery thought.

 

[Lee the Blue]

Nowe playing Chelsea 4 times in a row - law of averages we should win 1 of them. Hopefully its the first one which is the Cup Final.

 

[JRockBlues]

The last 2 rounds of this competition have seen us facing opposition around the same time as a league game. We lost the WSL tie but subsequently won the cup match. Would we settle for same again? I think I would as league has gone to Chelsea already unless they have something go spectacularly wrong.

Cup.CL through on away goals.. league.

I'd snatch your hand off for that.

 

[blue whippet]

Rather unfortunate.

 

[TinFoilHat]

That's us fucked.

I'll happily leave it to City fans to comment how they feel about this draw but, don't forget that it is definitely the worst draw Chelsea could get. I was hoping for either of the German teams instead.

Got my ticket for the final last week and I have a feeling i might well be watching you guys vs Arsenal or Lyon!

 

[Lee the Blue]

Just bought a ticket for the QF at home - hoping for a decent game. Not expecting us to win but at least be competitive hopefully. Would need Hemp back if at all possible.

I think this season represents the best chance Chelsea have had of winning the CL tbh. Such a deep and strong squad now.
