[City64]

Who's feeling confident? :s

Me, and this is why...
Hart
Zaba Komps Mang Kol
Fern 1
Milner Yaya Nasri Silva
Aguero
Fern 1 protects the back 4. Our midfield has technical ability, and can retain possession.
Barca will not be expecting MP to change his tactics, and we have ......Agueroooooooo.
Barca 2 - City 3.
(The biggest obstacle is the ref, and what would UEFA's sponsors think of Messi not making the Quarters? Hmm? Hmm?)

On drugs ^^^^^^

Not yet, maybe later.

Haha ;-)

Just left 'the square' where all the CITY fans have met up - cracking atmosphere - loads of drinking and trouble free (just hope that I am not speaking too soon).

Amazing amount of confidence amongst the fans - really hope that we do not play 442 tonight but of course we will.

Watch out for pick pockets around ramblas , if you have any money left later some awesome titty bars well worth a venture ! Just sayin .

[mcfc1632]

Too pissed to enjoy much last night - might go 'sight-seeing' tonight

[Moonchesteri]

Start with just ten men on the pitch. Then when one of ours gets sent off we just bring the other man back on so we don't see it as a disadvantage!!!

Hah. Not feeling confident but that cheered me up a little

[Saul Goodman]

Play both Ferns, Milner, Yaya, Silva, Aguero

[london blue 2]

Silva don't wanna play this lot. Play Yaya up with Aguero and pack the mid with cloggers

Thats basically what i did.

I can only wonder if these two are related...

[Ted Hughes]

Ha just seen Pellegrini has pointed out, that Barca play 3 upfront. Which is absolutely true.

Nobody wants to admit it. Because it doesn't fit the agenda, but it's true.

And Kirsty Gallagher has just been fed a line which says City are inconsistent away from home.

[trueblue64]

Man City XI vs. Barcelona: Hart; Sagna, Kompany, Demichelis, Kolarov; Fernandinho, Toure; Milner, Nasri, Silva; Aguero.

City subs: Caballero, Zabaleta, Lampard, Fernando, Navas, Bony, Dzeko

[harveytravis]

Good

[Dubciteh]

I like it.

Interesting choice with Sagna.

Is mangala injured? Not even on bench?

[Sideshow Bob]

interesting for sure.

[Nick]

So the 5 in midfield everyone (inc me) craves.

However fern1 holding solo.

Hopefully we're not too light in midfield.

kolorov at left back will have me shitting it; even more pressure on fern1

[blues2win]

Milner to shore up Kolarov on the Left. Nasri on Right but no Zabaleta. Silva behind Aguero. Basically 4-2-3-1. Navas to come on against tiring defenders and Dzeko to take advantage of his crosses? Whatever happens City give us back some pride.

[Hutch's Shoulder]

I've been to see the Producers at the Palace and now enjoying a few pints, hopefully the lads will put on a performance that wont spoil the day, even thought I dont expect to win.

[trueblue64]

UEFA have us 4-4-1-1

[Blue Noodle]

UEFA have us 4-4-1-1

They would though, wouldn't they. Platini the prick.

[Sideshow Bob]

nasri finally out of the doghouse. wonder what that was all about.
