Milan are second in their group, three points behind Malaga. So there is a high probability that they'll finish second.
We could also get Juventus, Shakhtar, Madrid, PSG, Porto, Bayern, and Valencia.
When is your Sheik going to abandon you?

I like Mexes I wish we could pick him up as a back up. he fucks up a lot but so do the other scrubs we play out of position at CB. City is terrible, how are they undefeated in the pl?
:lol nice reaction.
Nah Mexes isn't good enough. I too wonder how they are undefeated, on another day Khedira could have had a hat trick :lol.

Malaga already won their group. Milan is a definite possibility

Ibra's was awesome but.. Mexes scored it with the goalie in the goal, controlled it himself with his chest(not assistsed by goalie mistake), did it in a game that mattered, and he is also not Ibra so even more extra points.
Never. His children will carry on his cause.
Wilshere isn't leaving Arsenal, he has our DNA.
Well Gervinho is leaving for the ACON & Chamakh could be going as well. That leaves us with one senior striker.
Anyone who suggests this is an idiot. City are actually interested in forming the second MLS team in NYC as a way to continue to further the brand.
The entire concept of the City project for the Sheikh and for Etihad is to continue to spread that brand and Abu Dhabi on a worldwide scale. The money is a drop in the bucket. They're opening soccer pitch after pitch in the US and they're all co-sponsored by City and the UAE Embassy. This is a project for their country as a whole.
The quicker people understand this and quit getting their hopes up, the better they'll be off.
Not Wilshare but Walcott is going in Jan if he doesnt sign
also, Jack should hang around because that club has been super loyal to that kid.
but mercenaries ;\
Milan, Benfica/Celtic, Valencia. Anyone else and I think we'd go out.
Go sit in front of the TV at 20h20min to watch a Jojo ep before ManCity - Real, fall asleep and wake up at 23h. Fuck me. :/
Dat Podolski goal.
Dat Mexes goal. Milan woke up just in time to smash us on Sunday!
Dat Borussia fucking Dortmund! Such an amazing team. I'm calling it right now, Borussia - Shakhtar final. Or at least semi-final.
I didn't, but it didn't have anything at all to do with us losing to Inter. Let's not burst Timurid's fictional bubble, though.

Milan are set in second position, can't go third or first. Malaga secured first position today.
Those all look like tough games for Man United though, Milan would be the easiest, even then El Shaarawy is destroying every team lol.
Now the football is done....
Anyone seen the previews for Lady Gaga's new video. I am gonna say this is totally NSFW - lots of skin on show.

It was a great goal but for me Ibra was further out, had to time it and place it perfectly otherwise the defender would've cleared it off the line. Plus he's Ibrahimovic and scored against England

Porto/PSG
Schalke
AC Milan
Real Madrid
Shakthar/Juve
Bayern/Valencia
Benfica/Celtic
The teams who could finish second.
Finishing first really isn't that big an advantage this season.

As a City fan, very disappointed to see us go out, but at the same time we can now focus domestically. Silver lining etc etc.
Dortmund to win it out now I think? What a performance by them, very sleek, classy team

That's what I thought about RVP
RVP was a special case. I doubt young Jack has the odd condition of thinking there's a screaming child imbued into your very body.
Then again, I don't know what crack does to you.
I think their inexperience will show in the later stages. They're a phenomenal team but I don't think they'll win it. They could easy make the semis though.
It all depends on the draw really. When's that made, mid December? Or is it Jan?
With the team that city have and the quality of players, you'd have to expect them to qualify out of any group they have

Ibra's was a nice goal but is being outside the box not far enough for you? Did Mexes not have to time + place it perfectly(there is goalie in the goal!), + he is a CentreBack not a striker and it was scored in a crucial CL game for Milan.

I dont want to play Juve or Madrid until the final.
Bring on ze Germans or Shakhtar. We'll crush Malaga or Valencia too
---yeah was going to ask about the spanish teams in round of 16, even better

True, an injury to someone like Reus or Gotze would devastate them too I think. They need the stars to align but I'd like them to do it. Mid December draw, isn't it just after the final round of matches?
Again, I am very disappointed, our performances against Ajax really just cost us, as did the first RM game. Just bottled it really. Need to harden up and come back again next year!

Van Marwijk hates City: "You can't buy your way to success."

I agree that it is inexperience with the different teams. United are used to it and bring in players slowly and alternate effectively. Mancini plays the same team week in week out nearly

Can't play the Spanish teams in the round of 16. Valencia and Madrid will end up in 2nd in both their groups right?
That cuts down the amount of teams we could end up with.

Did you not see Pep's parading for Qatar 2022?
It is. It makes it look like you're completely unaware of Milan's massive culo in CL.

Bittencourt has only played once when we ran out of offensive subs vs. Schalke, he's pretty damn good, but we're very stacked in the OM and Klopp is extremely cautious about players who are unable to defend properly. Even offensive-minded ones need to be able to defend and Bittencourt is not quite there yet.
He is, however, rocking the reserves in the third division and was recently a u21 Germany nominee.
I think the plan is to keep him around this season in order for him to gain strength/tactical finesse and then in 13/14 he'll probably be brought near the first team.
Yeah, we'll make sure we beat Juve. After all, we know dat feel

OMG YESSSSS!
After the draw, I would have accepted the third place without any hesitation. And now we're qualified for the round of 16 as the motherfucking leader of the group. I would have never ever expected this! Today, we played very cleverly. Ajax had much more possession but could barely create any chances. We instead made great use of the few opportunies that we had. That's a huge difference to last year's CL season, when it was the other way around. Man of the Match: Götze for sure. He scored one goal and assisted the other ones I think. But everyone played well today. Just a great effort by the whole team

Last time we played them we won 3-2 at the San Siro and 4-0 at home. They're worse now.
but
so are we

Some Dutch dude that played in Germany for years says Huntelaar will leave in January and Arsenal are favorites.
Schalke to drop to the Europa League spots!

In a CL final? Who doesn't? I'm not even sure we'll make it past the group stage, tbh. We are cursed in Europe and Shakhtar are absurdly good.
Bayern vs. Juventus CL final. Both teams lose.
