Napoli have had so many clear chances. You just know City will get at least one more opportunity.

part of me wants to see city not get out of their group, the rest of me wants to see them get absolutely humiliated by Barca!

Aguero should have pulled that back there. They're knocking on the door a bit.

It won't much matter what Bayern do. All Napoli have to do is go to Spain and beat its 12th best team.

If Napoli can't beat the current Villarreal team then they don't deserve to go through.

Good, glad that Napoli won. Napoli won't find it easy in Villarreal, Napoli's league form has been a bit in-different considering that they were being talked about as potential champs.

Not sure what it says for the EPL that City have lost 2 in 5 in the CL and none in 12 in the league.

Unfortunately Citeh will be strong favourites for the EL if they bomb out the CL.

EUROPA LEAGUE, CHANNEL 5!!!

The amount of times I heard that being said regarding our position, really hope I can say that to a lot of City fans come the end of the next games.

I am so glad that Man Shitty lost. :rofl: :beer: :rofl: :beer:

If they don't go through to the net round it will cost them millions and with the FFP rules it will put them under more pressure. I know they they have this farcial sponsorship from the Brother in Law but if EUFA must see through that surely! :bang:

As much as I try hard to support all the english teams in the Champions league, it takes a bit of pleasure with the amount of grief that I have had from shitty fans that they have a high probability of joining us on Thursday night football

Brother in Law - Great description!

Lazy journalists will now link Cavani with City.

Unfortunately I only grabbed the last couple of minutes, I really like Napoli - they are a really tactically interesting team and Man City struggled against them last time out against an unusual (to them) 3 man defence.

I'm enjoying Man City's struggles for obvious reasons, but also because it makes our CL group win last season look even more impressive. They'll be with us in the Europa league soon hopefully.

City's excuses have started. "First time in the Champions League..." Who got into the quarter finals last year, first time? Refresh my memory. :hump:

Manchester City's loss in 2010/11: £194.9m. #MCFC salary budget: £174m. Owner's outlay: £1billion. Losing to Napoli: Priceless
