Champions League Last 16 Draw | City v Sporting Clube de Portugal

[MCFC1993]

Software?? Are they actually saying they needed an external software provider to tell them that United couldn’t draw Athletico Madrid?
What a complete joke

That's just PR.

They fucked up and we all know it.

Wouldn’t be at all surprised if we get atletico after that fiasco

Atletico are perfect, just like PSG in the group stage.

As a fanbase we need to understand that drawing big teams is good for us. When we get piss easy draws, the team comes in half baked and nervous for the big ones when they arrive.

If we draw Atletico, like with PSG, it will be the tie of the round, all the media attention will be on it, and we'll win (because like PSG their performance doesn't match their name right now) and take loads of confidence from it.

Pep's been here 6 years and we can count on one hand the number of ties we've had against the biggest clubs in Europe. I want to see our best side ever playing Atletico, Real, PSG, Barca, Bayern, Juventus and showing the world how good they are.

City have drawn Bayern, Barcelona, PSG, and Real on multiple occasions over the last ten years. They played Juve once but I can’t recall drawing Atletico?

It was much better with the open draws used in the European Cup. I seem to recall Forest drawing Liverpool in the first round one season?

100% we are getting Athletico now

 

[Bournemouth Blue]

I bet United get Salzburg and we get Athletico Madrid this time…. Corrupt as Formula 1

Re-draw to be done by Michel Platini and Sepp Blatter

 

[LongsightM13]

Basically every second placed team wanted united as their best chance of getting through. That’s what all this boils down to

100% we are getting Athletico now

Does it matter?

 

[MCFC1993]

We'll beat any potential opponent anyway.

Liverpool and Chelsea having the PSG/Bayern options re-opened are in a more precarious position.

And Boris will deny the first draw happened
