So it seems City is overly confident about beating us. I believe we can do to them what Bayern did to them. Their defenders will have trouble with the quick feet and agility of Messi, Neymar and Alexis/Pedro. If we're on our best, we can still dominate every midfield in world football. The only thing I'm concerned about is our defence, if we play Pique/Mascherano it is going to be very tough.

Nonetheless a draw I wanted to avoid but we're the most likely ones to go through.

PELLEGRINI: "I think Barcelona will be very concerned that they have drawn us. They are not the team of two years ago."

Hope he says more stuff like that. It's always a good incentive for the players.

I see a lot of journos raving about City's chances because of the Bayern game. If they get overconfident because of the hype then it will be only good for us.

The unusual thing is that every MC supporter is really sure that they will beat Barca, and everybody wanted it, don't know why, maybe they are blinded by their EPL perfomance :p

Actually no. Every MCFC fan knows that our team is not good enough to win the CL. Being runners-up in the group stage meant we will only draw a top side. City have already played Madrid, Bayern and Dortmund in the CL recently, the next best glamorous tie is Barcelona. It is a dream for City fans to watch their team play against Barcelona and watch the likes of Messi at our home ground.

A win against you would be a historic one for us. If we do lose which is more likely, there is no shame either. We are just starters in the CL knockout stages and an exit means we can concentrate on our league which is very strong this year.
It's a win-win situation and Manchester City is thrilled to face Barcelona..

Ya I agree with all of you, let them be happy and super-confident. The more they hype themselves, the bigger chances we get.

Good to know they overrate themselves, just like us before the Milan game.

Why preoccupy yourselves with what fans of another club think/believe will happen?...Shouldn't they feel confident about their own chances?

Plus, best thing possible is to go into these matches as not being the favorite...Barcelona have unfinished business in Champions League, we'll see if they are up to the task - regardless of the opponent

It's a tough draw for sure, but Barca can beat them. They're gonna have to play very well, limit their mistakes and take most of their chances, but City is very up and down team, and are certainly beatable.

Knowing Tata he will probably play this line-up

Alves----Pique---Masch-----Alba

Xavi-----------busi---------iniesta

Messi----------Cesc---------Neymar

If they all are fit 90% this will be the line up.The surprise would be Song instead of Xavi which make some sense because of Havi Garsiq,Toure,Fernandinho probably City`s midfielders for the game..

We have to put forth a performance like the one vs. Celtic for 180 minutes to go through. Come on Barca, we can do it!

And yeah, let them do all the trash talking, I have no problem with us being the motivated underdogs whatsoever.

I think people are overestimating how good Man City are here.

Only Kompany and on form Toure would even get in the Barca line up.

As long as Navas doesnt take advantage of the space left by Alba I think Barca will be fine.
It will be a tough game. Don't think that Barca will be any more "fine" than they were against Bilbao.
