Im normally quite upbeat about City’s chances in every game but the way our defence is shipping goals and the chances we are missing week in week out, for this game I fear the worse..
Hope to fuck im wrong as I have been many times before :-)

I know there is a lot of apprehension around but with their defence and our attacking players I think we can do it tonight. The most important thing is to fully get behind the team tonight..come on City!!!!!.

Brilliant

This match tonight is how the champions league should be no group stage,straight draw no seeding, a proper knockout competition which is what it is now .bring it on come on city

And no money. So it will never happen. This new format is however imo an improvement.

My heart says "Go on, do what you did to them on the way to the treble! Hit them hard, hit them fast and fuck 'em right up before they've even had a chance to know they're in a match"

My head's shaking from side to side and pissing itself :)

I feel much better about City's chances with their front line central defenders available and got a feeling Phil might really turn up tonight after his quiet world cup and "Jude" having his position. Think he's really going to be cooking.
So I'm feeling we'll do better than expected.

No idea how we will do but today is dragging.

I'm the opposite - i wish this game was tomorrow, or next week, or preferably in 2 years time.

And 2 actual champions playing each other!
(It wasn't actually a straight draw, though? Only a toss-up between 1 of 2 teams)

I am not in agreement with Mike Wedderburn, we only have a glimpse of a chance because of their injuries? Has he spent too much time in here?

Mike loves the wind up though. If we do well tonight he’ll be all “well that was a pleasant surprise “ while all time looking a proper smug git.

Love the guy - Clive has it in him too!

Any news on Nico?

You might wanna see a doctor for that.

If Haaland can’t score against a kid and a box to box midfielder playing as a CB pairing then we have real big problems.
