If you mean which CL pot would City be in, yes, pot 2.

Want to win, for sure but really, just want to see sensible management of playing resources tonight.

UEFA changed the rules for selection as soon as City became eligible for Pot 1 ( semi finalists last season)although only a conspiracy theorist would think that to be the reason.

The rules now say that the 8 League Winners (champions) from the 8 strongets leagues go into Pot 1.
The the pots are sorted out by referecnce to the old coefficient whilst ensuring that no 2 sides from one league end up in the same group. The guess is we will end up in Pot 2 but with UEFA who knows! -ffs.

A likely set of hot balls would see us in a group something like:
…RM or Barca
…City
…PSV
…Besiktas

I am not sure when the draw is !.

Same here. Don't be singing stupid crap.

I'm going and I'm going to enjoy myself; that's all I know. Looking forward to it.

Got a feeling Hart will start and sadly i think it will be his last game.

 

[pride in battle]

Can season ticket holders buy at the ticket office tonight? Thought I couldn't make it but can now

Yes, get down early though

I got the feeling it will be the start of something wonderful

Hart plays sweeper style, better than wily. Hart becomes part of the pep plan again. accepts number 2 keeper role and stays

Oh if only
