the draw for the last 16 of the champions league couldn't have been worse for manchester city after the defending premier league champions were paired with barcelona during monday's draw.
its the second consecutive season the two have been drawn in the round 16, with barcelona coming away with 4-1 aggregate victory, and it is one of three matchups that offer a repeat of last year's games.
chelsea's pairing with paris saint german is a rivalry also set to be renewed after the pair clashed in the last year's quarter-finals, as chelsea won the tight fixter on away goals.
the pairing seems to be exactly what the parisians wanted: real madrid's game against schalke offers another rematch from last year. meanwhile, arsenal's wishes were answered when as monaco were selected as their opponents, offering manager arsene wenger a chance to face the team he won the ligue 1 title with during the 1987-88 season. a rematch of the past champions league final is also on the horizon when juventus take on borussia dortmund. the germans came away victorious in their first final, capturing a 3-1 victory.
