Bayern's squad is obviously stronger, so we have kidogo chances. But Guardiola knows, a fast counter break may kill his team. I'll be concerned if he starts Mandzukic upfront. If that happens, tunaweza limwa sana. But if he resorts to false nine and tiki taka, who knows. Yeah, I'm hoping, but I'll not be crossing my fingers and toes. We've already stretched ourselves this season. I think that's a misconception, Man Utd were in a fairly easy CL group and you faced what was probably the weakest team in the last 16.....very few people expected you to lose the first leg at Olympiacos. The Bayern match last week was probably your first real test in the CL this season but i must admit the team produced an impressive defensive display. Fellaini is out of tonight's match which means its either Cleverly or Fletcher to partner Carrick. Pep will most probably go with Mandzukic tonight, they created a few chances last week when he was introduced.....his physical presence and movement is better than Muller's. He created a few chances when he came in last week. At the back Dante is back from suspension to take over from Javier Martinez who is more suited to DM than CB. I expect the Germans to be compact at the back, tonight they'll be very cautious of Man Utd's counter attacks. Utd will need to create something from the middle because remember its them who need to score not Bayern. Wewe na wewe, NKT, there is no easy group in the UCL, it's a fallacy, Olympiacos by the time of the 2nd leg had already clinched the Turkish league and guess what, Galatasaray was still in the competition!!! Mwambie. Chelsea had an easier group with Schalke, Steaua Bucharest and Basel, and they still lost two games. Those three are not as strong as Bayer Leverkusen, Shahktar Donetsk and Real Sociedad. And Man U never lost. Ati first real test. Luck is when Preparation meets Opportunity. ~ Lucius Annaeus Seneca
