I'm too old to lose any more years of my life fretting about the best team in the land and all the world............. but you can bet your bottom dollar I will!! I've been a City supporter too long I am never complacent. Even when we are winning 5-0 with 2 minutes to go!! :-) It's going to be a loooooong night!

The arse is twitching, repeat, the. Arse. Is. Twitching.

We already know that from their last two results mate. ;)

I think we will win this game easily, after giving it a bit of thought.
Because Pep will not overthink this. The outcome is obvious; Bayern will be set up for attack, right from the start, as they haven't got a minute to lose.

Pep will prepare defencively very well, and set up for Haaland counter strike.

Bayern know Pep will do this, and Pep know Bayern know he will do this.

So Pep will play with patience until Bayern get overly eager for attack - then we counter.

This will be easy pesy, and a very enjoyable game with our eyes..

Were not used to getting through the first 20 minutes just defending as fans but if we do we can start to pick them off

Big fucking game tonight, obviously we are strong enough to get the job done, but that wont stop the backside from twitching. Come on City!

When Barcelona made their comeback against PSG, or Liverpool vs Barca, they needed absoultely everything to go their way and it did. It'll be interesting how the officiating feels first 10-15 minutes, I'm thinking a soft penalty and our defenders picking up bookings for nothing. Regardless of that the only way we can mess up is fluffing the chances we'll get on the break.

Will we get a Pep overthinking masterclass this evening? Something along the lines of...

GK - Walker
RB - Haaland
CB - Palmer
CB - Grealish
LB - Alvarez
CDM - Ederson
RW - Stones
CM - Dias
CM - Gomez
LW - Phillips
ST - Akanji
It could work, you know. Bayern would be that confused, we'd stroll through them time and time again.

Pretty standard that the one time we could benefit with the away goals rule, it wont help us
