Match Thread | Man City vs. Chelsea FA Cup (20/04/24)

[I'm Blue]

Tough watch this. Lads are tired and it shows.

Is it extra time or straight to pens?

 

[VOOMER]

Clearly a lot of these lads - Walker, Rodri, Bernardo, De Bruyne, Ake, even Grealish - just aren't ready after Wednesday. Get it changed Pep. Fast. Or we're done.

Who's he going to bring on? Hes persisting with Akanji and surely Jezzer can't be knackered? They are set up to simply boot it long. Control the ball City.

 

[Bluemoonadam]

We are there for the taking today

 

[Tolmie scores]

defensively we are nowhere near as solid as last season.

Thats as a unit front to bsck

 

[2blue4you]

OMG some of you need to give your heads a wobble!!! Team is bound to be tired after Wednesday's game

 

[Mancity1980]

This was more a game for Bobb, Nunes and Lewis

I reckon at least one of them will be used later on.

 

[Tuearts right boot]

If we were firing on all four cylinders we'd have had this match sewn up by know

 

[Don Karleone]

I'd be amazed if Pep changes it at half time.

 

[Dr Jacoby]

We look like a team that played over two hours on Wednesday night in a high-intensity game.

Subs are needed at HT but doubt we will see any unless there’s an injury.

 

[Macca77macca]

So much whining

 

[plongo]

Why is Akanji playing upfield from Stones?

 

[Blue Llama]

3 players who still look tired from Madrid game Kev, Bernado and Rodri all making mistakes.

 

[Metal Biker]

A lot of these decisions are just baffling.

Who was KDB intending to pass to there?

 

[TinFoilHat]

Is it extra time or straight to pens?

ET and pens.

Can't see us lasting that long.

At least we can't be accused of using the Scouse special juice.

 

[platty7]

thats a booking

 

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Phil now playing quite central and we look better

 

[Blu1]

I'd be amazed if Pep changes it at half time.

He needs to make 3 changes

 

[I'm Blue]

Booking? Nope..

 

[RobinHood]

That is a yellow all day long

Kovacic and Lewis and Doku and Nunes and Bobb. Absolutely no legs in this team and we desperately need a change.
