If we don't win by at least two clear goals I'll be booing them off......enough's enough...
 
I'm going to the game so it'll be dire and we'll lose - 9hr round trip for 2hrs of disappointment. Please City prove me wrong!

We are overdue a good night at the Etihad in this competition. We have had some good nights in the Champions League, but most have been away.

Disappointing that the ground wont be full. That always puts a dampener on an occasion. At £25/£20 you'd think there'd be a good crowd, but suddenly everyone has got a downer on City.

Chance now to turn it around with 2 home games coming up

Not everyone is in the "we're doomed" camp. Hopefully this attitude won't transmit to the players, but I won't hold my breath as the groans will no doubt start with Bony's first poor touch, its time people got behind the team and manager, who knows it might even work.

Anyway, I'm looking forward to a good day, leaving about 11am, going out for a nice meal pre match with my son, then supporting the team, hopefully to be rewarded with a win, and if we're lucky top of the group.

It's time for City to suck it up and realize that they're not going to win the group. Rest some players for Swansea.

Disagree completely. Seville have already beaten Barca and Real at home this season.
 
It is an odd one for sure. I am not sure everyone has a downer on us it is perhaps due to our rollercoaster past a lot of City fans are probably more pessimistic as opposed to optimistic. If most of us won the lottery we would keep on going to the cashpoint to check the balance as we wouldn't believe it lol.

On the team i think it is a surprise for many we are suddenly doing so badly due to our signings. We all know we will miss Kompany and Aguero for large chunks of the season but the signings of Mangala and Ottemendi should have had that covered and Bony and Sterling for Aguero.We strengthened the midfield with Delph and De Bruyne so it is a bit baffling.

Injuries have hampered us let's hope we get some key players back and crack on.

Leaving players out tonight? Who? We hardly have 14. And they had a rest last Saturday. As for the 4 trophies? Really?

What about giving players a chance to get revenge for a pathetic performance. And if we win we will see where it gets us. It will at least do the confidence no harm.
 
Can't see Sevilla getting anything more than a draw against Juve.

Their last game against BMG showed that they aren't really arsed about staying in Europe via the Europa League.

The competition they've won two years in a row? I would suggest they would rather make it three in three than get knocked out completely.

I can't see us beating Borussia on current form though. They'll look better organised and more motivated than us.
 
The confused 1 has said the players are tired so its time they took a rest it isn't like we have any chance of winning the comp so I'd go

Willy

maffeo
otamendi
humpreys
clichy

diniho
delph
garcia

navas
bony
roberts
 
If we approached the game with tactical nous I'd feel confident of getting a one goal win. However if we just go out and play the same way and with the same lack of effort we've been showing recently it all depends on whether BMG turn up looking for a result.

bad thing is pellergrini is! What's the point in going for top spot? We are relying on other teams to do us a favour and THERE IS NO WAY WE CAN WIN THIS COMPETITION!

You get coefficient points for winning CL games. It's in our best interest to go for as many wins as we can.
