Champions League Last 16 draw - Schalke v City

No draw in the cl is easy, lets be honest though, best draw we could of had, the rags are OUT, no doubt. Liverpool and Spuds, 50/50.
 
A great draw but underestimating them would be dangerous. I think it will be closer than most think. You have form for fucking it up in the CL, so nothing is certain. Although you hit top form that’s a different matter. But, they are a good team and could cause a scare if you aren’t on it.
 
'now' is not in two months time.
'Luck can play a part as well, please see reference to three critical refereeing decisions vs the dippers in last season's competition.
Anything can happen in a game of football and the team currently 8th in the Prem league ( or whatever) can beat the team in second place.
Or, in two months, they could be in 18th and we could be in 1st? I’d put a wedge on us if this was the case!

Schalke:

Manuel Neuer, Marcelo Bordon, Rafinha, Heiko Westermann, Christian Pander, Halil Altintop, Jermaine Jones, Ivan Rakitić, Orlando Engelaar, Jefferson Farfán, Kevin Kurányi

Schalke substitutes: Schober, Höwedes, Zambrano, Ernst, Kobiashvili, Asamoah, Sanchez

Not a bad side.
Kuranyi was highly rated at the time, too.
 
They’re 13th in the Bundesliga, just 4 points above the bottom 2 and they have only won 4 league matches all season

VAR should (hopefully) put to bed any worries over the dipper type decisions going against us.
