You are a beam of sunshine.

Any word on the lineup?

i’d guess it’d be close to full strength with friday’s potential final being full strength. i think the club really want to win this trophy

Now we are there we might as well try and win the tournament. Another title. Another piece of history. More success, more interest from sponsors. More piss to be boiled.

Give over. Its something we've never won and we've gone all that way, win the fucking thing. We could do with winning again and get a rhythm going. Great opportunity to get a bit of confidence and swagger again.

I prefer us to have a winners mentality

We go and win it. That way we are legitimately at the next one as champions.

I hope we win, but being honest I don’t really care about the game, at least not as much as the Everton match. Pep, the players and lots of fans will probably disagree, which is fair enough

Win two games to win this Cup then Everton have to play the best team in all the world, official.

I really don’t understand how anyone could have no interest in any game City play.

It's another chance to watch City mate, but no can't really get up for this competition

I like it.

Doesn't really matter who starts, should win comfortably regardless. Would have thrown in bobb from the start see what he can do in something resembling a more familiar first 11 but meh. Be ruthless, don't sit on ball the instant we gain a lead and this can be wrapped up comfortably and the full sub limit can be used 2nd half.

Aside from the win, all I want to see is the intensity and the desire to actually score again if we take the lead.

Losing 2 out of 2 and being crowned 4th best team in the world would be a great confidence fillip before Everton away.

I would play Stones or Akanji instead of Walker, but otherwise that's a great team.
