Noisy Neighbours - the Man City thread

[TightEnd]

expecting to make the semis this week?

or more hopeful than expectant?

[POWWWWWWWW]

Chuffed for City, KDB is the man. PSG were awful, you'd have thought they would be full of beans since they'd had the league wrapped up since August.

Congrats on the semi-finals, and best of luck!

Get them balls heated for the draw, UEFA.

[Ironside]

Who do you want in the semi

[tikay]

Congrats guys, that's just terrific, I'm chuffed to bits for you.

Good for Man C fans, good for supporters from England, as it gives us an interest, &, most importantly of course, very good indeed for the bookies.

Different Gravy KDB

Atletico are tough as teak, superbly coached, tactically astute and really tough to beat

looking at the three other semi finalists, are they who you want, or would you prefer one of the two favourites?

[flushthemout]

Tough to choose, but yes A.Madrid is my preference but happy to have home leg 2nd as I feel it benefits us. I have a few friends in San Sebastian who have spoken to today, they feel they can go all the way but don't want Bayern in Semi, destined to be city to meet Pep in Final, I lived in San Sebastian very much Catelona Region and very passionate, maybe another away day on the cheap for the semi, defo Manchester Square for the final yeah we can dream.

I think Bayern.

Whomever we draw we'll start as underdogs. But we do have a reasonable recent track record against Munich, beating them home and away in the last few years. I also think it would be good to get the whole Pep/Pellers circus out the way in the semi, as it would be beyond fever pitch if the 2 clubs were to meet in the final.

I think I fancy our small chances most in a 2 legged tussle with BM and then a one off game with either of the Madrid teams vs any other potential permutations.

Wonder what charge UEFA will slap us with next.

Presumably UEFA will want a Bayern v Real Madrid final so  they will be separated in the draw. So, if Real have 1st choice,  it will be City v Real with City at home in the 1st leg.
This, of course, depends on  the "warm ball" theory being in place.  I'm a believer

I loved Tuesday night. Great to win, great atmosphere, great performances from the maligned players (Clichy, Navas,Fernando, Mangala, Otamendi, Sagna) who are supposedly  not good enough for this level.  Watched the whole lot back beginning to end yesterday including BT's  pre and post match coverage. Can't be doing with McManaman and Ferdinand.

Obviously we are outsiders to win the thing but here is to hoping the 6/1 shot comes in.

Real are the worst side of the three left. You should be praying to get them. Not a patch on previous seasons. A rose by any other name and all that.
