favourites too...and not just for the whole tie, even for the game at theirs we are down as favourites.

I think you will find favorites with the English bookies be a different odds in Spain.

This Madrid team is finished.
Expecting a comfortable win over 2 legs, living off reputation now like the rags, albeit not that bad.

What I like about this draw that it will give the whole squad a lift now.

There is a big match in February, every player wants to be involved in this occasion.

Including sane

I think we will smash Madrid. Pep knows how to wreck them. Either way, I am really excited about this draw. Feels like a proper CL knockout round.

Some on here are quoting that we will have to beat the madrid team, the ref, 2 lino's and VAR but you are forgetting the biggest problem we will have...……

Pep will get arrested as soon as he lands at Madrid airport because of his support for the Catalans !

Fair enough. I believe its good to admit when you're wrong but maybe it was a bit "crawlingy" [a word that will probably never be used again, God willing].

some real tasty fixtures

I see we are starting with the “we will smash Madrid posts” see the derby pre match thread and try and be grounded. They aren’t the team they were but they’re still joint top of their league and need to be respected.

We’ve got this blues. We are better than them

Hello Karen. On a different note to the Real draw, I was a bit harsh on young Zinchenko a few weeks ago. You were spot on with your defence of him and I was glad to see him back the last week. PS. Ceferin was a guest at the Etihad for the last CL home game. Maybe, just maybe, peace has broken out between UEFA and City and the club may get a more fairer officiating. To me, it certainly looked that way for the game away to Zagreb.

Yep nice to have zinchy back,i hope Ceferin being at our game as our guest means a decent outcome to the investigation,don't agree about the away game you mention,they kicked us to death and one should have been sent off

I just read City are still 4/1 favourites to win the C/L.

How come UEFA didn't give the scoucers an easy draw?

 

[mrtwiceaseason]

Anyone remember roughly how much tickets were last time or how far it dropped down the points scale. Ie low. High open sale?

There’s a price cap on tickets now

Yeah hope they don't go the full £69? Was it?

 

[Gorton_Tubster]

I dont think RM will be happy with the draw. Says it all. We can beat them

 

[northwichblue]

How the fuck are we favourites to win the C/L

Guys, when are Real and City releasing tickets for these games? There are no info anywhere. That's why I ask you. You have all the answers and probably work at the City campus ;)
