Champions League Last 16 draw - Schalke v City

[Cobwebcat]

There’s a big difference in the standard of the four teams.

The most accurate (in terms of predictions) rankings site has...

Ajax 9th

Atletico Madrid 11th

Roma 27th

Schalke 49th


Ajax have a very strong team this year we really don’t want them. I don’t think their style would be good for us either.

Schalke are worse than Hoffenheim.

Schalke & Roma both struggling so far this year, so either of those 2 would be ideal for me. If we did get Ajax, at least we'd get to witness De Jong & De Ligt!

Just shows how important it was to top the group. I think City can easily beat any of those teams when our first team is fit.

Not sure I'd trust any ranking system which had Ajax ahead of Atleti and Roma, just because they've signed Dusan Tadic and Daley fucking Blind.

Atleti would chew Ajax up mate, they're way ahead of Bayern at the minute.

Let's get athletico we either knock a very good team out or we go out and can concentrate on the league/Fa cup

So it's Atletico/Roma/Schalke/Ajax for us.

Rather than R.Madrid/Barca/Bayern/Juventus/PSG/Dortmund/Porto.

Wonder if those people who were arguing that 'it doesn't make a difference whether we finish 1st or 2nd in the group' still feel the same way now.

Not when we’re the best team in the world. I don’t give a shit who we play.

 

[Franknorgrovesnephew]

Any ov those 4 on our day we should beat comfortably

Or let's not get one of the most physically intense sides in the sport at a time when we're still recovering as a squad from the winter period blitz of games. There's a reason the PL sides have a woeful record against top sides in the round of 16.

Games are played in mid Feb we should be fine by then. All teams are physical in champs lge I've seen that with our group this season.
