Fernando 6,585 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 It shows any rich guy can take over a club.. buy players and win the CL, it degrades our legacy. As mentioned before, the never-say-die attitude and all the injustices we went through doesn't go into the history books, only the results.I find it an insult to mourinho and Chelsea that you think this city is good enough to beat us. You have lack of faith because you truly don't love our club. kellzfresh, kobematabryant, zolayes and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,534 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 If this was may and they were in the final could understand but it's only the group stage which they aren't out of yet.long way to go before worrying what they may or may not do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Term-X 7,891 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Come on now LOL.....this City ain't winning the Champions league, they may make the Round of 16 only if they beat Roma while Moscow lose to Munich. There's no certainty that if City win next game, they'll be through. Right now, Munich have 0 motivation in the CL group stages and CSKA may very well snatch a win like they did at Etihad. If you think this City side, who beat a 10 men Bayern B side at home with all three goals being gifts, somehow have the capacity to win the whole CL, then you are the one needing to quit football, not me. Plus, City won't even have Fernandinho + Yaya against Roma. Let's just say City make it out of group, they'll get a top side and get thumped. Let them enjoy their glory for now, that glory will end either in 2 weeks time or in February. City winning it.. IS a possibility, it would be well in tune with the spirit of the competition to not rule anything out.Andy Townsend screaming 'GET IN' when Aguero scored is something City fans will be banging on about forever now. City showed 'fighting spirit' tonight something WE are famous for in the CL, it's part of our DNA in the CL, it's practically copyright infringement lol.

Liverpool weren't good enough to beat Milan etc.. etc... etc... ETC. I'd rather have them knocked out in the group stages just to be safe... that's all.

Laylabelle 9,534 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 Though when fighting spirit is mentioned in the CL does seem to be more Liverpool in 2005 brought up first then our madness.we remember it but others less so.mehhh our job done at least.Would say Arsenal would over do our win but more as no longer only london club.can't see that changing for a while though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 The City group calculations give me a serious headache.The rules are, if two teams have the same points, you refer to the H2H matches between them unless the H2H is exactly the same then you go for the general GD. But if 3 teams are tied with the same points, you refer to the GD in the matches played between the three teams only. Now, all of City, Roma and CSKA have 5 points, that means:- If Roma get a win, they go through regardless of the other result.- If City win in Rome, they go through unless CSKA beat Bayern in which case the Russians go through because of the H2H with City.- Similarly, if CSKA win they go through unless Roma win and qualify on H2H.- Now, if City get a 2-2 or higher score draw they qualify on away goals in the H2H against Roma as long as Bayern beat CSKA; in this scenario, if CSKA get a draw against Bayern, all three teams would be on 6 points and they send Roma through as the team with the best GD in the matches between them. If CSKA win, they go through on points.- If City get a 1-1 draw, they go through on general GD as long as Bayern beat CSKA. Again, if CSKA get a draw against Bayern in this case, all three teams would be on 6 points and they send Roma through as the team with the best GD in the matches between them. If CSKA win, they go through on points.Pretty simple, eh? RoyalBlues and stroey 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nike 373 Posted November 25, 2014 Share Posted November 25, 2014 I'll eat my hat if Mangala, Clichy, Fernando, Lampard, Milner, Nasri and the headless chicken Navas will snatch a draw against Bayern.EAT IT.Put some of that sauce you make and eat it.

So what does City have to do to get third place? Before they was dead on track go finish last. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted November 25, 2014 Author Share Posted November 25, 2014 Would be amazing if City go to the EL so they can waste their energy playing on a Thursday night. So what does City have to do to get third place? Before they was dead on track go finish last. Depends on CSKA:-If CSKA win, City have to win or get a scoring draw to finish 3rd.-If CSKA draw, they'd have to draw with any scoreline to get third (Roma would be second, and CSKA 4th).-If CSKA lose, City would finish third ONLY if they draw 0-0 with Roma. Personally, I'd like them to go through because the EL is played at a completely different intensity than the CL which is obviously a lot more consuming. They are not a threat to us in the CL, imo.

nadavTKL 1,787 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 City showed 'fighting spirit' tonight something WE are famous for in the CLCity didnt showed fighting spirit at all tonight. You probably havent saw the full game, i did just right now, and the truth is City were abysmal again. With 10 men, Bayern controled the game and turned 1:0 into 1:2, while being the dominant side by far, away with 10 men(!). City didnt have any ideas how to even get a draw, until Alonso gave them a goal and then Boateng gave them another one. Bayern were cruising for a win, City looked pathtic as usual in CL, it was just luck.City are a truely awful team imo. Its a shame this is the current 2nd best team in the PL, im embarrassed as a fan of this league. Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I want City to go through, that would be the best for English football + for our chances winning the league. Of course it would also be sweet for them only play Europa League and their "historic" win counting for nothing. I am pretty sure ZSKA will not win in Munich, but I can't see City winning in Rome either. So it is more probable that they will either be 2nd or 4th than 3rd.
