Last year Man City lost to a Liverpool team that finished below us in the league. Since that game they've added one player, Mahrez.
They'll be favourites but as you've highlighted they are far from invincible in this competition.
Paradoxically, Liverpool is a very dangerous team in CL. It has the same tradition as Milan ( not that of recent years ) in Italy.
That draw has done a good job of sapping my interest in the Champions League.
I actually would of much preferred Liverpool if we beat them in the CL it would feel so good.
City are a non team though a corporate non-entity.

From now until the end of April I fancy we'll all be closet Watford, Everton, Leicester & Wolves fans as well. All of them have 7 league games over the next 6 weeks against Chelsea, Man U & Woolwich. Massive for us that they stick it up them a little
Good call. Me too....cant wait for April to be over....fucking trust Liverpool to get an easy life......
If we have our strongest eleven, I think we at least make a respectable showing and don’t get slaughtered as some seem to think.
True. If you won the lottery would you say well I didn't earn the ££ so it's hollow & means nothing. Or think woohoo I'm rich!
Bang on !!!
Couldn't agree more.
I absolutely cannot wait.I am bouncing up and down already. Can you imagine what the sound and atmosphere will
be like. It will be amazing.
It is the quarter finals of the CL at our brand new stadium. What a fantastic experience to look forward to.
I am biased, but I really thought we deserved a point against them at the start of the season.
City are beatable.
We can beat City.
We can win the Champions League.
Come on you Spurs fans !
Changed the tune, stupid prick
He gets uglier with every new picture
So Ajax are going to beat Juventus then........
Really think this is when we stick that “Harry Kane team” remark back in peps face.
Need to create an atmosphere like the Woolwich 5-1 semi.
And if you see someone getting thrown out of the North stand middle tier for persistent standing that will probably be me. Fuck sitting down for this one. (I chose the back row sitting against concrete for a reason)
100% have to make the Lane a cauldron of noise.
Let’s all believe

The Juventus is theoretically favored: Ajax has a lot of talent but little experience. But we must always be very careful: they have nothing to lose. They have already eliminated Real Madrid. In CL not only the big names count, the attitude is important (in addition to luck). Wanda's Juventus was embarrassing, giving up. Juventus Stadium Juventus was spectacular in intensity and desire to win.
Never underestimate anyone in the final phase of the CL. In the groups it is easier to recover, after it is complicated.
Way too much wrist slitting going on here. It's tough to get ahead of City in the league because of the strength in depth their Sheik's money gives them, but in a CL game it's 11vs11. De Bruyne may be out, Fernandinho is currently injured and Aguero is long overdue a hamstring. We're hopefully not far off full fitness and there's not that much in the teams.
This is a coach vs coach and crowd vs crowd battle. Klopp and Anfield beat Pep and the Etihad last year so no reason why Poch and the New Stadium can't do it this year.

Don’t know about that. I never had much interest when we weren’t in it. So what? We’ve got a tough draw. That’s to be expected at this stage of the competition.
So basically the most difficult draw bar Barcelona...
> The atmosphere in the new stadium will be incredible.
> We're lucky that the home leg is first.
Not saying it's likely to happen, but we need to hope for those two things to create a cauldron in the first leg and bite their faces off like Liverpool did last year.
Looking on the bright side, City do seem to have a 'block' when it comes to the Champions League. They've messed up games at this stage that they really shouldn't have.
