Re: City Vs Viktoria Plzen Pre Match Discussion Thread
Um. No.
It doesn't work like that.
Goal difference isn't used in the Champions League like it is in the Premier League.
For us to finish above Bayern they have to lose tonight or we have to go to theirs and beat them by at least 3 goals (as they beat us by 2).

I think we should play a full strength side, hopefully bag 5 or 6 then take key players off

Yes they are but if he is not booked today and gets one in Munich he'll miss the first last 16 game.

I think he need to get a yellow card tomorrow because we are already classified and the knockout phase´s matches are more important than Bayern´s match.

Nasri is in the press conference, so i assume he will start. i wish him and other key player - aguero, yaya, fernandinho, negredo & martin, get rest tonight. but i think some of them will feature in the starting line up, or as a sub. even we already qualified, i have the feeling that Pelle is still consider this game very important.

Or does the away goal rule not come in?
(Bayern have only conceded one goal in CL and dropped 4 points in 13 BL games)
Or beat them 4-2, 5-3, etc. Well we have scored against them, and nearly twice...mgreenz97 said:Mickeylad said:We need plenty of goals to go to Munich with to stand a chance of topping the group.

No matter the results tonight, we will definitely finish 2nd. Recent homeform have probably messed around with peoples brains, but Bayern -especially when it matters- are by far the best side in the world. We are not even close to them right now. Don't let expectations run away with it due to our recent form. AT HOME !
What we should do is try and show people worldwide the game at the Etihad was a complete offday from our point of view and repair some of the damage to our status that night. But maybe we should start by beating Pilzen first. We have qualified for the first time ever in the knock-out phases of the CL, so let's not pretend we are a European force yet. Long way to go.

You're right a 4-2/5-3 etc. win would put us on top of the group
I think that goal difference is used before away goals, in

I don't think it will be a trouncing tonight to be honest. We have seen already at Newcastle that our reserves don't pass or create particularly well, and I can't see it tonight. Going to guess at a 2-1 victory.
