They have the same voodoo over this competition that real have over the champs league which means regardless of how they are in the league it will be very tough .

Completely agree but we now have an exceptional manager in charge.

Need to get Bruno off

Am I right in thinking that bookings expire at the next round (Quarter Final)?

Apparently

Did I miss the announcement of us joining la liga? Another Spanish team...some variety would be nice, but at least if we get through this one there won't be any left.

It’s the European Super League by the back door

I did see on Twitter that it looks like Ericsson is nearly back to full fitness. Should be a massive help in the upcoming games

That would be a huge boost!!

Any hope for Burnley FC today?

Would be a massive boost for our FA Cup ambitions, if City lose focus and get eliminated today.

Nope. They’ll put on a good show hopefully, with them dominating the Championship and having Kompany at the helm, but ultimately City will be far too strong for them.

Southampton done us a favour today

Yeh. A point ahead with 2 games in hand. Hopefully we can leave that battle for 4th spot between them three!

Brighton definitely and possibly Brentford are also in that little battle. Plus our next PL match is Newcastle away. Avoid defeat and we’re sitting pretty, get beaten and we’re definitely in that battle whether we like it or not.

[57Ford]

I think Brentford are going to drop off a fair bit once Toney starts his inevitable ban. He’s a big part of what they’ve been doing this season.

Big game today, arguably biggest game of our big season, so far.

16:30 kick-off, set your alarm clocks.

How would it be our biggest game of the season ?

This game has potential to accelerate our momentum for more cup silver gloryware.

Triplicate of cups is still achievable.

Rubbish. The biggest game of the season was probably the EFL final. Some of the matches in the PL were big games too including both Liverpool matches for very different reasons.

[LF5335]

Oh and what a surprise. Winners of our game gets Brighton, City get Sheffield Utd, although they won’t necessarily be a pushover.

Hoping Sabitzer has a good game.......well at least one goal
