Now I believe from this group if we get 10 points we are home and dry. Back to back wins vs Ajax and a win vs real or dortmund will get us through. Onwards and upwards blues......keep the faith.
They do, but it's in our hands. And Dortmund are a very open team. They will concede chances to Ajax.black mamba said:mancity dan said:Just got back from the game.

Whilst your optimism is very commenadable Dan , we'll be very fortunate to get 10 points from this group , believe me !
One place has all but gone already with Real Madrid , and Dortmund surely stand a much better chance of grabbing the other spot than we do.
I am a little bit annoyed about this result, even though City deserved a draw as well. They had great chances, but Roman Weidenfeller made some terrific saves. You cannot keep out the incredible talent of Manchester City for 90 minutes. We had some huge opportunities, though, and took a 1-0 lead through a somewhat planned manoeuvre. We wanted to put them under pressure and Marco Reus was able to execute with his great pace.
We had them pinned down, so of course you'd like to take the three points in that case. We had countless chances, despite being the away team. However, we can build on this performance, as we were very disciplined tactically. It was a big step forward for us.

Not too sure it's in our hands Marvin , already it's us and Ajax who are doing the chasing ....
realistically it's gonna be very tough for us now, are we really good enough to win in Amsterdam and Dortmund ??????

So should Zabaleta !
And Ajax. Unfortunately Real Madrid may think that they have all but qualified nowRay78 said:It depends on how Dortmund will do in their both matches against Real Madrid.
