redfieldred Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 In order to have any chance, Man City have to play as poorly as first 60 mins v West Ham or the whole of the palace game. That's not impossible, if we get into them early. We need a couple more wonder goals as well. Not impossible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Up The City! Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 We need to treat both games as one off games and then we got a chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This I feel will draw quite an audience especially those who have the Edward Scissorhands Video Collection. I wonder if a run of 3 defeats will have damaged the mindset at all or will it have been expunged by the adrenalin alone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sparkz 76 Posted January 9, 2018 Report Share Posted January 9, 2018 On paper this Man City side should blow us away but I have to believe we have a chance this club is deep in my heart and have have only dreamt of these nights so I believe we will give it a go. We just need to stay in the tie tonight imagine a draw with home leg to come. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re the current favourites for the Champions League! Just think of it as City vs Barcelona/Real Madrid/Bayern Munich. I think you could call it a giant killing if we beat them. Man City have a long way to go before being talked of in same breath as those 3 teams. They are currently walking a poor Premier league. They have failed to beat Wolves and Leicester in normal time in this competition, lost to Shaktar in Champions League, drew with a very poor Everton side in the Prem and should have lost to the mighty Crystal Palace a few ganes ago. Yes, they are a very good side. World elite.....no. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they are a very good side. World elite.....no. It doesn’t matter the history of those teams. Currently Man City are on par, if not better, than all 3 of them and are a world elite team, I think you’d find it hard to find many that would disagree with that. I’m not sure the fact that Citeh have not won ALL their games undermines it. They all lost games in the CL this season, RM to Spurs who aren’t even in the top 4 here this season. They’re breaking every record possible in the PL, which I’m not sure I see why you see as poor; after English teams dominating the CL group stages. Im not sure the fact that their reserve team have got to them to the semis undermines them either. If we beat this team over two legs of course it will be a ‘giant killing’. Would be one of the biggest shocks in a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A win is unlikely, certainly over 2 legs, but we are here on merit and have earned the chance to give it a go. We were underdogs against Watford, underdogs against Stoke, underdogs against Palace and underdogs against Manchester Red. Tomorrow the pressure is all on Manchester Blue, Pep is close to his first trophy with them and they are expected to batter us, we have absolutely nothing to lose here and the pressure is entirely on them- exactly the conditions that suit an upset. Yes and we only played them in one match. There's a difference between dreaming of winning a match against a huge club in a one off like the Man U match and the fantasy of beating the most expensive team in the world ( a staggering £720 million) who are unbeaten in the Prem and by anyone this season- over two legs. It's not being negative- it's being realistic. Like I said- I just want BCFC to do us proud and maybe get something out of one of the matches. But this is OTIB where a few wins make us world beaters and a few losses relegation fodder and 90% of the time we're neither. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Being realistic is acknowledging we have little chance, as I already have done, in the second line of that post. Saying it is impossible is nonsense, as there is always a chance. As I said, why shouldn't we dream? Dreaming doesn't mean thinking it likely. The very notion of it being "a dream" insinuates that it is extremely unlikely. If we are writing the game off as impossible for us to win then perhaps we should write to the EFL and just forfeit? Should Leicester fans have not dared to dream in 2015? Should York fans not have dared to dream before they knocked out Manchester United over 2 legs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
