I believe last CL group, Schalke lost to Chelsea 3-0 on aggregate.Isn't this the first time S04 has scored against Chelsea? Every team in that group has 1 point haha

My dude Drogba needed to out one of those away. Also Fabregas had a big chance and sent that thing to my backyard. 8pm is right though, Chelsea need to go for the jugular when they get a lead
This. Left the game at the 80th minute thinking it was gonna draw since I had work...what do you know Boateng ends up scoringYup
You have to do well in the champions league man, thats a requirement for me if I'm a fan. With City's payroll and the type of players they have - no excuse.
If I was a City supporter, I'd rather have the domestic title than a semifinals appearance in CL.This. Left the game at the 80th minute thinking it was gonna draw since I had work...what do you know Boateng ends up scoring
I said before the season, I'd let Chelsea take the BPL if it means we can go to at least the semi's in UEFA. Mangala needs to start against Chelsea...let this man get into form and our defense will be solid.
If we lose against Chelsea....I don't even think they will be mentally fit to face a Roma side who looked like a threat today.
Meaning you'll take the stepping stone semifinals appearance this campaign for further glory in 2015-2016 CL play.Yeah I sound a bit crazy but in my point of view we've already achieved domestic accomplishments. I'm aiming for European titles now. We have the capability to compete deep every year but it's been nothing but disappointment year after year.
Don't mean we'll be in 5th place in the PremiershipMeaning you'll take the stepping stone semifinals appearance this campaign for further glory in 2015-2016 CL play.
why isnt wenger playing ozil at #10?
What did he say? 5 trophies, 5 years.
But he's on track with that right now. He could still (I know Chelsea are favorites) win the league this season....you gonna fire him then?
Yup

Completely understand, wasn't belittling your point. My blood brother is an ardent City supporter, and I feel his/your pain with lack of European success. He'd rather have the domestic title than a semifinals CL appearance personally. City isn't ready to win CL IMO, and there's no point in reaching the semis as a consolation prize. You want a deep run with a real, legitimate shot to hoist the trophy in May.Don't mean we'll be in 5th place in the Premiership
I mean I'm aiming for the Semi's because it's at least close to reality, I'll take the Finals too.
Even Real Madrid won the CL without winning La Liga. If City wins the BPL even better. With the amount of world class players and talent on the squad they need to join the elites of Europe.
Wenger's handling of Mes and Moyes of Kagawa remains baffling to me. Do these managers not want to win matches?Because Wenger is still one of those dudes who still thinks Pluto's still a planet.

Side bar: Been meaning to ask you about South Africa's reaction to the Pistorius verdict. I believe the judge is awaiting to determine her sentence for culpable homicide.According to Ferdinand, No, Moyes did NOT want to win matches, he preferred to set up his team not to lose matches.

I hear you, deep runs in CL should be standard given the squad they have, and the amount of money they have invested. But to be honest, lately when I look at City's squad, I'm not overly impressed. I feel like they don't have star quality all over the pitch. Off the top of my mind Hart, Kompany, Silva, Yaya, Aguero all stand out for me, the rest are just pretty good players. To go deep into the CL, you either need to have amazing players all round, or gel together exceptionally well (which I don't think City do as well as they should).
If City won the league, there's no way I would call for Pellegrini's head. CL or not, he would have one a very very difficult and competitive league.
Heartbreak in Eastlands. Lost focus defensively, multiple opportunities for a tidy clearance. Golden chance to save a point returning home.
Boateng sniping in the second-half like a Tom Clancy book. Get off me, Pep.
