well tonight is the night, never in my wildest dreams did i even think of us facing the mighty barca in the CL many moons ago. but times have changed, we have changed and now become like barca in a way as we feared by most teams.

hoping for a total specticular game tonight and show the world that from now on its the mighty city you all should fear.

seriously though, hoping for a stonker of a game, score wise, 3-2 for us

Within a year we have witnessed the 3 players voted the best in the world within a year Ribery, tranny and Messi.

Whatever the score we have arrived.

3-2 to us???
Whatever the score???
Who are you people ... We are playing Barcelona to try and qualify for the next round, you know?

always one

love how Mou and the media are trying to have ammo to downplay a victory by us by knocking Barca down a peg or two, it's almost like they've gone "shit, we had to be nice after they beat Bayern, let's ensure we can blame a City win on something else".

Barca haven't got any worse than the second half of last season and you still didn't win anything Mou, did you?

I seriously can't get up for this in the same way as many blues obviously are.

Not nervous, not thinking the end of the world if we go out.

Certainly looking forward to watching Messi in the flesh and the likes of Xavi and Iniesta.

Perhaps a generational thing, but I will be more edgy about beating Stoke this weekend.

I want that Premier League, regardless of what our owner would no doubt covet.

Tonight might be the night when games likes this become a little more special if we get a result and put on a show.

I know what you mean, the fact that firstly this is one of two games and secondly I am not overly fussed about winning the Champions League right now makes this more a case of sit back, relax and enjoy the spectacle and see what happens. It is the 4th on the list in terms of trophies I want City to win this season. I think that would change moving forward but right now League, FA Cup, League Cup (as we are in the final) and C.L. Being a City fan of course means I will not sit back, relax and enjoy, I will be biting my nails and shaking during every minute because it always turns out that way. But just proud that we are at this stage right now and moving forward it will be a regular occurrence and these games dare I say it, we will be favourites to win.
