Oxford Utd (A) - LeagueCup QF - Pre-Match Thread

[MAG]

Bravo
Cancelo - Garcia - Ferna - Angelino
Gundo - Rodri - Foden
Mahrez - Jesus - B Silva


As much as I’d like Doyle to start in place of Rodri and Howard-Belis in place of Fernandinho ... I see Pep going with the team above given it’s the QF now ...

Foden should absolutely be up for it given it was against them last year he scored his first City goal (if my memory serves me right) ... and given his start today and being taken off early in second half, he’s a sure starter come Wednesday.

C’mon City ... with the league position we find ourselves in, the two domestic cups would take a little extra importance this second half of the season alongside Champions League ... if we bag 4 again, like last year, just replacing the PL with CL, it won’t be that bad I guess ;)

All I want is the Mcfc trophy

Villa v liverpool
Oxford v City
Everton v Leicester
united v Colchester

If we get through with Villa and Colchester could be a great set of semis and final

And add Everton to it as their focus surely would be the league survival ...

They’d love a trip to Wembley too though

I wouldn’t begrudge their fans that.

Id honestly go Bravo, Garcia, THB, Angelino, Cancelo, Gundogan, Doyle, Foden, Mahrez, Braaf and one of the young strikers. Rest everyone for Saturday.

I'll be there on Wednesday so hope to see a good few of the young lads.

We ain’t winning the league so we might as well go relatively strong.

..................Bravo...............
Cancelo...Bellis...Garcia...Zinch
......Doyle...Gundo....Foden.....
Mahrez........Jesus..........Braaf

Bernabe to come off the bench, Delap would be fun but will never happen

We prioritized this one

I really hope so

 

[alexmcity]

Given that we are not likely to win the league, we will take this game seriously and play a good team.

 

[simon23]

ferna should be nowhere near this game and neither should the likes of rodri sterling or KDB. we need them for the league (i know we have realsitically no chance of catching the scouses up but we have Leicester next game) and second half of the season

Win this and I believe we will get dippers next. We are the only ones to stop these vermin, unless they’re going to be allowed to fluke/cheat their way through this as well.

 

[Xhavenjoe]

Very important to win this. I am assuming / hoping Villa will put out a strong team. The last thing I want is City to put out a weak team and go out and then see Liverpool scraping through on penalties.

 

[Stoned Rose]

Foden.

Lets see him run the show.
