I get the feeling we'll get PSG.

Or Gent and then we'll lose to them.

Typical City.

Of course we will be given PSG. Reminder: its UEFA in control of this.

Love to see us get a kind draw and for Arse to get Barcelona and the Chavs to get PSG

It ain't gonna happen though.

I would actually prefer the other English clubs to do well in the CL as well for couple of reasons.
First of all it would keep fixtures piling up for them as well and that might lead to slip ups in the league etc. And it would do world of good for the reputation of English clubs.
Plus I'd fancy our chances better over those two clubs over two legs rather than likes of Barca, Real, Bayern..

Not saying they will win it or anything but Chelsea may well do a lot better in the CL than their prem form suggests.

Feel that the real focus this year is on CL.

So backed us at 16/1 for an outright CL win a couple of months ago.
Expect to get a run for my money (semis maybe?) but not the outright win.

However, if we can get our fab 4 players fit and playing - I think we have a good chance of going all the way.

Re Chelsea - I agree. They could go well in CL. But the 'style' of football won't be pretty - park the bus type stuff.

I really hope MU have a run in the Europa league - if they do - that is any sniff of winning the PL gone for them.

The only possible reasons I can see for us not getting Paris are:

a) the draw is honest. No, no, really. I've heard it can happen.

b) they won't want to give PSG us. Perhaps an easier club, maybe Zenit, for them. Platini's son works for them and they all still love the revolting little toad over at UEFA.

c) they think Kiev is a harder tie with all the travelling for us and the stuff going on over there.

Good shout. Glamour, old guard team but basically not too good. Don't think we've ever played them.

Squad changes?
As per UEFA rules: For all matches from the start of the round of 16, a club may register a maximum of three new eligible players for the remaining matches in the current competition. Such registration must be completed by 2 February 2016 (00.00CET) at the latest. This deadline cannot be extended.

Current Squad we have named is:

Joe Hart
Willy Caballero
Angus Gunn

Bacary Sagna
Vincent Kompany
Pablo Zabaleta
Aleksandar Kolarov
Eliaquim Mangala
Gaël Clichy
Martín Demichelis
Nicolás Otamendi

Fernando
Raheem Sterling
Samir Nasri
Jesús Navas
Kevin De Bruyne
Fabian Delph
David Silva
Fernandinho
Yaya Touré
Sinan Bytyqi
George Glendon

Sergio Agüero
Wilfried Bony

So we know Nasri is out and Iheanacho in? Room for a couple of additions as well?

How embarrassing has it got that they need a computer to assist them with the draw because they have complicated it so much
