is it known who do we play on the 19. ?
Heard a few on here recently moaning about City’s relationship with Jorge Mendes saying it should be investigated?I mean he supports a team of cheats so obviously he's gonna be a bit loose with the truth when he posts on here about them.

While they’re about it maybe they could look into the Bebe transfer.
But in the Pot 2 years City invariably drew a powerhouse Pot 1 team like Bayern, Barca or Juve not the softer teams such as Benfica, Porto, Zenit, PSV and CSKA who were also possible opponents.There were far fewer strong teams in the CL back in 2003-2013, so pretty much all the big clubs were in pot 1. Besides, you've conveniently chosen to include all teams United faced during that period while omitting all the easy teams City faced, cherrypicking only the harder ones. Is that intentionally dishonest or some uncanny oversight? In fact, some of the clubs you've pointed out as easy opponents for United, City have also faced... but you've neglected to add them to that list in order to make it look like City have had a much tougher time. Makes it very hard to take your post seriously. You cannot put a club on United's list as an example of how easy we've had it and then omit it from City's list when they've also faced that same club.
In the last ten seasons, City were in pot 1 only five times, so they were automatically going to have pot 1 teams in their group half of those years. Maybe you should go back to our 1993-2003 groups for a more valid comparison between the two teams. Now that City are typically in pot 1, they're getting the same treatment as we were in 2003-13 where we were in pot 1 literally every year. It creates a wildly misleading comparison. Of course one team that has been in pot 1 every year for ten years straight will have easier groups on average than another team that has been in pot 1 only five of those ten years.
Where? Here? And "bastards"... How very classy of you, good sir.Bayern fans already celebrating the win of the group. Difficult to argue with that but it would be great to get a result against these arrogant bastards.
We'll take that group. I think we've been lucky! Ha!
To be honest, with our squad, I'm not sure how much we can give CL this season.. it will be a test of our resources. Just have to enjoy it.
To be officially confirmed but seems out CL fixtures are
20/9 Bayern (a)
3/10 Galatasary (h)
24/10 Copenhagen (h)
8/11 Copenhagen (a)
29/11 Galatasary (a)
12/12 Bayern (h)

With Amrabat I believe our chances have greatly improved. Looking forward to the games much more than a few days ago.Nah. They're shite under Tuchel and I fancy our chances of winning the group.
Bayern and Madrid are two clubs I’d love to see us beat. Feel like we’ve underperformed against them this century.Nah. They're shite under Tuchel and I fancy our chances of winning the group.
Funny but to say that City has generally been lucky when it comes to CHL draws or cup draws in general is just not true.The moment Kane signed for Bayern, I was convinced we'd draw them. Not too bad a group but we'll need to beat Copenhagen home and away and get something in Turkey (they aren't the shock jocks they once were, although of course we aren't what we were in the 1990s).
How the hell do City keep getting Doncaster U-11s, a team from an island populated by six parrots and a dog, and Uruguay's Care Home for donkeys?
Newcastle will be in the Europa come Xmas...
That's why a Superleague is necessary. The financial gap between top clubs and the rest is way too big now. Group stages are boring for the most part and only groups of "death" attract neutral viewers. But I'm pretty sure we'll see a Superleague anyways in some years, just with UEFA as host, so they can continue to get their share as a "non profit" organization.
Hey man, is there a possibility for anyone outside of FCK to get tickets to that game?...
If one of the ideas is to take a good % of the Superleague money to inject it in the less fortunate clubs, it would not be that bad. But the problem is that those clubs would probably stop caring about their national leagues.
This could cause either the other clubs to step up and fill the gap and eventually increase the competition, or simply making the national leagues a less attractive product and become more poor as years go by.
Sorry the late answer but i have no clue how it works for away fans you probably have to buy your ticket through United?
But it’s also going to be impossible to get tickets for home fans because United are so popular here in Denmark.
Not anymore. Gone to Kobe, Japan.
That's true but I think my point still stands - can't remember the last time they had a contender for top spotFunny but to say that City has generally been lucky when it comes to CHL draws or cup draws in general is just not true.
Anyway you could have paired City with the strongest team from pot 2, 3 and 4 and they would most likely still walk the group.
No worries mate! Don't really care if it's home or away, I'd even try to blend in with the danes pretending to be a FCK supporter
But yeah, looks pretty much impossible atm.
What's wrong about the Danes?Surely no one in their right frame of mind would ever be that desperate for tickets?
EverybodyAh, I was hoping Bayern to draw a arsenal.
Last season everybody on the board was yelling arsenal will destroy Bayern easy. Would have been time to trash them 5-1 like usual.
Not anymore. Gone to Kobe, Japan.
