Cheers boys. Napoli home then Bayern away, what better way to start our CL success.

Nice to see we've got Bayern at home last, hopefully we won't need the points to proceed and it will be a scrap for the No. 1 spot.

man, this group is tough..especially Bayern. I think we can take down Napoli..they just got thumped by Barca like 4-0 or 5-0.
Villareal had to rely on 2 Rossi goals in the 2nd leg of their qualifiers so they seem vulnerable. Despite Bayern having to qualify I put them as one of the favs this year...especially since they'll want to get to the final in their stadium.
I'm not really a City fan. I'm just here for attention.

How easy do you think it'll be to get home tickets? Booking flights for the Villareal game

I would love to know how the fans of the other clubs feel about drawing City from pot 3.

Have to feel we are going to be part of the group to watch for entertainment value.
I'm expecting to see the goals flow big time as all clubs have some very talented strikers.
Villareal have Nilmar and Giuseppe Rossi
Bayern have Gomez,Olic and Muller
Napoli have Lavezzi and Edinson Cavani
Not a patch on our lads all the same.

I think the Villa game on Sunday would be anticipated to Saturday because City can't play only two days before the Villareal home game!

Hi Fella, reckon this is definitely the most attractive trip, without doubt, Villareal is a tiny place and venue, and Napoli is full of snidy cowardly Italians giving it the big one.
Munich here we come, wonder how many we'll take.

No easy games but none of them will relish playing us.

Bayern are probably our main threat, but Gomes is a streaky striker; Ribery and Robben are quality players, when they're on form but Rpbben, especially, can be 'got at': Philip Lahm is outstanding going forward, but how does he deal with a stampeding Micah Richards?
And Ya Ya?
And Twinkle-Toes Silva?
Does he stay at home and mind the shop or does he risk everything on his marauding runs.
Apparently they haven't settled on their starting CB partnership yet, which will play into our hands.

I don't know much about the other two, especially Napoli, but I can't imagine they'd pose more problems than Bayern

Horrible horrible draw for us. Six extremely exhausting games.

Personally I hope we have fun with this European tour but concentrate on league.
Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?
