City's luck is amazing. Can't believe that shit anymore
Champions League QF Draw | Manchester United v Barcelona
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
And went through because Sane goal was wrongly disallowed. Karius United Legend
My biggest fear is we knock out Barcelona, knock out Liverpool and then get embarrassed by City in the final.
Thanks Zoo. Wasn't aware that the rule applies for "consecutive nights" either. Why would that be? Overtime and time off the next day etc?
We will beat Barcelona on the counter attack. Play to our strengths, none of this going toe to toe nonsense like we tried in 2011 with Park, Valencia, Carrick and Old man Giggs in midfield!!
Cracking draw,can't wait. They're beatable.
Are we away first our second? Seems to be different depending where you look.

Yes. I think Juve-City will be closer, but i believe Liverpool have better chances against Barca than they would against City/Juve. They are 'perfect' for them this late in the tournament.
And because of fecking City we must play first at OT
It's football. Roma beat Barcelona last season. This is man united.
Is that confirmed? Great news if true.
I like that we're at home first against Porto as well. Could put the tie to bed with a convincing win there.
So if City and United progress we'll have our semi-final first-leg draw against 'pool reversed too hopefully!
0-0 at Old Trafford, 1-1 at Nou Camp. Then Barcelona can retain that 1-team-league record
bunch of wet wipes in this thread. Stick to Europe League and your Villareal's. This is what CL is about.
Have they stopped us from progressing?
Not if City and United go through … United v 'Pool first leg will be reversed
And running around very slowly. I was shocked at how slow he's become last time I watched Barca.
Another tough draw but it is the quarters so feck it.
Should be a cracking game. Well if we win anything this year it’s through pure ability because we’ve had a tough draw in almost every round of every cup.

Yep, me too. Luckily we are playing at home first I think.
Can those who watch Barca regularly tell us how they have been this season in comparison to previous ones? Are they beatable or just unstoppable? Any weaknesses?
Actually yes. That didn't even occur to me because, well, us winning this tie didn't occur to me either.
Ander Herrera will have some man-marking job to do, it seems. If he manages to nullify Messi, then who knows..
imagine the scenes if we were to win the CL having knocked out PSG, Barca, Liverpool and then City.
That's a good point. I'd actually fancy United to get to the final if they somehow get past Barcelona then. Having the second leg at Old Trafford would be a big advantage imo.
You are right, but eventually we need a bit of luck. It couldn't have gone any worse, that's the thing.
Arsenal, Chelsea and Wolves in the FA Cup.
PSG and Barcelona in the Champions League.
All this whining about the luck of others my god. We just got 2 legs of PSG with no Neymar or Cavani and advanced on an extra time penalty.
Get over it.
Get over it.
That's the BIG if!
So, city haven't faced a decent team in FA cup/League cup/ CL and pool had the worst Bayern for decades now they have Porto and we have Barca. Need jones to mark messi, if you know what i mean. 
Well you know, that’s who you’ve gotta beat to win the CL...
On the plus side if we get through that, then regardless of where we finish in the league, nobody can argue against us being the best team in Europe
When do we find out the exact day of our first leg? Need to know if it's Tuesday or Wednesday for travel plans.
Can't wait for the game to be honest, was hoping for Barca or Juve. What a night it will be at OT.

Or you can see them being hampered by the commitment in their league campaign. At least that's what the straws I've grasped say.
If ole gets the job it won't be before serious tests as a manager. I'd say bring it on.
Liverpool v Porto
Another comfortable draw for liverpool.
Looking forward to our games with Barca. Dont expect much.

When are the games?
It's funny that Spurs and City will play THREE games in a row (they will have an EPL game in between CL games)
YOu mean Porto?Liverpool
Good draw. Liverpool will underestimate Porto and lose, and we will be fired up for it, while everybody will underestimate us, including Barca, just like PSG did, and with little luck, semi final, here we come, United - Porto.
You all heard it here first.
This is exciting, safe to say that if we win it this year it will be one of our greatest achievements in a long time. Especially considering the teams we faced along the way.
Had my first look around Bluemoon out of curiosity... What the hell! Its like a conspiracy forum akin to Alex Jones lot! Refs are out to get them, they dont trust VAR. The United PSG thread was full of crap how everything is being done so City dont progress and United do. If thats that case the draw would have been much different today. Very strange place....
It's actually better. Let us know the away goals count first rather than nervously defending in the second leg. Psychologically, our players will be inspired to go all out at Camp Nou knowing away goals count.
I think a 0-0, 1-1 and 1-0 Barca win would be favorable results for us at home in the first leg (unless we win and they don't score ofc). Any more than that and we are up against it.
How can anyone not love this draw . We may not even be in this next season and we are one of the least likely teams to win it . These are the ties you live for as a fan
