solid back 4...no probs at all.

Against a 2nd string Villarreal attack, yes no problems.

[ruralblue]

Not the fastest of games but easily done, quite a walk in the park really. Good passing. Still in it but have to take Bayern or Napoli apart!!!

Ajax aside, the biggest win in the CL tonight - as it stands.

If we draw with Naploi and Bayern and Napoli beat Villareal we would end up on the same points as Napoli with 9. What decides then who goes through?

Head to head with Napoli would be the same so would it be goal difference.If it is i think we might struggle.

[Bridge'srightfoot]

Did anyone hear the surprise in the ITV commentator's voice when Balo won the penalty? And then as the players walked off at half time he said it was a contentious penalty. What a knob. You can bet your life that if it was any other English team they would have been saying it was a stone wall penalty but cos it's City (and possibly cos it's Balotelli) it must be contentious. Bunch of wankers

Oh give over.

Why? They've clearly got it in for 'moneybags city'

No they don't. I nfact they were giving huge amounts of praise to us. They're not CityTV, it would be boring if they simply sucked our collective dicks all the time.

Goal difference.

And that would mean we would go out probably

If City win in Naples in three weeks we qualify. Simple.

And - we are a goal better off than they are right now.

[Beeks]

Most unsatisfactory win ever

Villarreal were absolute gash

[CityGer]

Just hope we dont live to regret not going for it and putting five past them. This could easily come down to goal difference.

[1950]

If if if. We're 2nd & currently have a better goal difference than Napoli.

It's in our own hands to progress & even top the group.

[Lev Bronstein]

Don't think I've ever seen an "unsatisfactory" City win

Only unsatisfactory because we strolled it. We never struggled during the entire 90 minutes, so it just feels like a gimme. Previous winners have had those games every year.

[Biamp]

Job well done. Too early to think it ahead we will see how we do in Naples then we can look from there.

Which we would lose at the very least if we were to draw both remaining games and Napoli were to get a win and a draw.

Like you say, win in Naples and this all goes away.
