Mario Gomez is the archetypal striker. I'm not too worried about Mandzukic missing the first leg even though I'd prefer his work ethic to close down Barca quicker.
Celtic will probably hold onto the SPL years after Rangers are back up. Especially if they keep McCoist at the helm. All for Celtic to do is just keep up the fight in Europe. That is all there is to do.
I'll be surprised if Nasri stays. Or at least if they continue to rely on him. Silva's been below par this season and they've suffered going forward from it. They really need to strengthen that 3 behind the striker in the summer.
Although Silva hasn't been at his best this season, I still think they view him as their primary playmaker, so I'm sure he'll still be a major part of the side. As for the other positions behind the striker, I don't know. Mancini doesn't seem to like wingers much (despite signing Sinclair in the summer ). Expecting Nasri to leave and City to strengthen those areas.
I wanted Brighton up too. I'm not too fond of either Palace or Leicester but the way Watford have been allowed to abuse the lack of rules in place for loans from other clubs owned by their owner is nothing short of ridiculous when there are other loan restrictions in place.
It's not their fault they're allowed to exploit the system but there's no way in hell they should be able to.
Feel for Northampton and Aidy Boothroyd but starting Clive Platt was a terrible decision, never been a fan especially after his spell with us (Coventry City), obvious game plan of playing it up to him and having O'Donovan play off, trouble is Platt is one of the worst big men in the air I've ever seen.
I couldn't feel sorry for Aidy if I tried and even if he is a Bradford lad as he think he cost them the game before a ball was even kicked. I knew we were going to win but was expecting a long, tough battle against the always awkward Akinfenwa so to see him named on the bench just sealed the victory for us. What was even more baffling to me was that even after half time at 3-0 down, he made a somewhat defensive sub in taking a striker off for another striker. 3-0 down, played off the park and totally dominated and there didn't seem to be any sort of urgency, or balls to the wall approach to try and force their way back into a game that was a comfortable as could be for us. It just felt like we did to Northampton, what Swansea did to us not so long ago.
