Watching the Leics v City match and the commentators are discussing the CL draw and saying how wonderful it would it be for Leics to get Bayern or Barca in the next round so the team and their fans can have a great adventure.
No! It would only be great if they won and got through to the next round.
Let them get the draw that gives them the best chance of staying in the Comp and leave playing the very best for the Final.

It depends. Leicester tonight looked more like the one from last year, granted City were shocking in the first half particularly. If they play like that and like their first few group games then they could give anyone a game over two legs

What a big game it is for yawnited & spuds tomorrow, both need to win to keep in touch with the groups of teams there in and around but anything other than a win for manure and their season is all about hanging onto 6th 😜

No, they weren't saying that, what they were saying was basically they aren't going to go much further so go out to big team on an adventure.
Some people can't accept they are there on merit and we should be wanting them to get as far as possible and getting, what seems on paper, a lesser team they'd have a better chance of progressing.

Trouble is Homer I am inclined to agree with Paul 42, City with a woeful defence that is sooooooooo slooooooooow played right into Leicesters hands that was a woeful City performance. Would like to see Leicester get a kind draw, they deserve it. City have a ? World class centre forward coming in January, would like to see three world class defenders coming in as well. I said a month or so ago that City need to be on the leaders tails after Christmas. At this rate they won't be.

The FA seem to condone diving by not having retrospective action available like it is in Scotland...
Doesn't make sense.
Almost every game there's a dive or two and, quite frankly, it's making a mockery of the game.
Cheats never prosper - unless you're a footballer that is.....

The only way to stop all forms of cheating is to take points off teams, fines and bans do nothing.
