Got a week between this game and forest, our last chance to win a trophy this season. I expect us to go strong.

yes , no chance of beating these highfliers without big Earl in the starting .
 
Into the quarters if we win this. Pep won’t fuck about. Start fast and get the game won as early as possible.
 
We do not play for a week so we need to go strong as this the only domestic cup we have a chance of winning this season.

-------------------Ortega---------------
Lewis----Khusanov----Dias-------Ake
----------Nico-----Gundo-----------
Savio---------Foden--------Marmoush
---------------Haaland----------------

Reis to replace Dias if we get a comfartable lead. Doku for Savio at HT
 
First Team set-up

……………….Ortega

Lewis….Reis……Ake…..Mfuni (?)

McAtee….Gundo….Bernie….Grealish

……….…….KDB….Foden

Team of Subs: Ederson, Nunes, Dias, Khusanov, Gvardiol, Kovacic, Nico, Marmoush, Haaland, Doku, Savinho

Rest the fatigued and only play any of them due to an injury or GPS speed & distance stats showing someone is gassed.

Attacking Set-Up

……………….Ortega

……...Reis……Ake…..Mfuni (?)

………….…Lewis….Gundo

…………….….…Bernie

….McAtee….KDB….Foden…Grealish

Haven’t seen Mfuni, but if he’s half as talented as others think, then there’s no better game to blood him and rest Gvardiol.

At our place, we should turn them over without too much trouble, but it’s their SECOND FA CUP FINAL of the season already, so we need to let them chase and chase and chase, while finding and exploiting the spaces.

I’ve left Bernie in a free attacking role, which allows him to slide forward, backwards and side to side to help control our game in their half.
 
I think we'll see a fair bit of rotation from last night's team.

Ortega

Nunes
Khusanov
Dias
Lewis

Gundogan
Bernardo

KDB
McAtee
Grealish

Foden

Exclude as many senior players as possible from the squad.

Stay at home and shag the missus.

Full mental and physical break !!

Not at all likely that team. Pep even when chasing the big prizes has tended to go fairly strong in the cup. Now with no game midweek he will only rest 2 or 3 of last nights side for this one. I expect a a 4 or 5 goal win and a home tie in the QF will do very nicely thank you.
 
Ortega
Khusanov Reis Ake Lewis
Nunes Bernardo
Foden De Bruyne Grealish
Mubama

Come on City. Two games away from yet another Wembley trip.

Back four will be interesting. I really enjoy watching Khusanov play and the more games the better for him at this stage I think for his communication skills as much as anything else. After this there might not be a chance for Reis to start until the CWC so I'd like to see him in as well. We need an experienced leader in there as well though so perhaps something like Lewis-Khusanov-Reis-Ake or Khusanov-Reis-Ake-O'Reilly

I'd love to see KDB start as well as this might be one of the last chances he gets to dominate a game of football.
 
No midweek game next week and the only trophy were in the running for. Let’s go strong and give some confidence to the players. 4:0 City.
