They were in great form when they came to us a month ago and they shipped 5, then got pummelled at Newcastle, but have looked really very decent since. They're a good side, having a good 2nd half of the season, with some exciting players.

I think Pep will look control the pace of the game, anything frenetic just plays into Palace's hands.

nerve jangling 2-1 win after extra time. c'mon City!!

That's my feelings aswell, we need to keep it tight and control the game. If its too open, I feel it plays into their hands a bit more. No silly mistakes City. 3- 1 City
 
Fuck me bbc football even more red and bent than ever, all about money v poverty (obviously looking about team value v net spend), all about plucky palace v moneybags City. Vile cunts

4 titles in 4 years and 3 FA Cup Finals on the trot. Enough is enough? Pep throwing finals is a media narrative. I was gutted we lost the FA Cup Final to Man Utd but here we are back at Wembley again largely down to Pep. How many title winning sides has he built and yet you are on the edge?

Pre Cup FInal nerves.

I actually think pep picked the saints team on the basis that he wanted certain players ready to play twice in 4 days

Nunes
Oreilly
Gundo
Marmoush

You can add he's tried and tested to that
Dias
Gvardiol
Kovacic
Bernie

I make it a decision on 3 positions
Goalkeeper
Wide player ( left or right)
Center forward/ false 9.
It will be strong in both games I don't expect you will see Lewis or mcatee starting either game.

Fucking hell that was FOUR YEARS AGO. The man makes mistakes like everyone does, he cannot win every game, nobody does. And yet people like you cherry pick choose a game that went against us to try and prove something that there. The achievements of the man are truly exceptional, sorry we lose the odd important game, and of course it’s rational to be bringing it up 4 years later
 
With no European football the last few weeks there’s no excuse to not get 3 games in 8 days out of the best 11, bar the odd tweak.

For me, tomorrow’s team will be something like this…

Eddie

Nunes
Dias
Gvardiol
O’Reilly

Kova
Bernie
Gundo
Kev

Marmoush
Haaland

We need to control midfield something we seem to have forgotten about this season.

Play for a goalless draw and get practising penalties immmediately.

If it goes to penalties then we are well and truly flecked. Can't take 'em and Eddie sure as hell very rarely saves 'em.

Get it done in normal time.

Not even going to try and guess the team.

I don’t mind mistakes, it’s the nature of the mistakes that sometimes concerns me?? :0(

As Genius’s we sometimes think differently,but…….. LOL

I was at Saints last week :0(

And we needed to attack and get at them, from the start!!

So we started with no wingers!!!

And our current best striker came on with minutes to go!!!

Just slightly worrying IMO? :0(

He will pick them but Haaland and b silva will both not start at Wembley

I think Pep will go full sentimental and end up playing Bernardo, Grealish, De Bruyne, Kovacic and Gundogan tomorrow.

He will see it as an send off for those players.

As I said people like you cherry pick the bad bits and ignore 6 league titles in 7 years, 3 consecutive cup finals etc, unbeaten in 10 games and focus on the odd bad bit to make their pathetic negative point. I was at Southampton too, like I am at every game, and yes it was a shit result and shit performance, it happens. It doesn’t worry me because the man gets so much right. I am sorry for you that the fact he doesn’t get ever single thing right is a problem
