I pulled the steward well before they scored,to be fair to him he said he'd asked for help to get them out,took till just after they scored and lads confronting them before he got any help.One scrawny little **** was giving it the old "come ed then,let's AV it"....kicked off just near the toilets on the spiral...210 has had away fans present at every game this season.I won't be taking my little girl to the Derby because it's gonna be mental,mark my words.

I thought the introduction of Navas was the turning point. As a team we seemed to do everything just that little bit quicker. I thought first half we were very pedestrian like, unfortunately I think Yaya played a big part in that. De-Bruyne added a completely different dimension to our play.
Martinez is clinging to our second goal as the reason they are out and he and his side are apparently "heartbroken" at the decision.
The same Martinez who only a few weeks back when asked about the Stones foul on Sterling in the league game, said something along the lines of, "we don't want video replays for everything, human error with referees is part of the game and its something we have to accept at times"....................... SO FUCKING ACCEPT IT!!!
It's just great to be back at Wembley, although Pellegrini really needs to come up with something as Klopp seems to know exactly how to set up against City.
I think that day, was more a case of us turning up expecting to win and then error after error. He surely will learn and I would fancy us now that their honeymoon period is over. The way they play their players will be fucked by the time they play us. Non stop running around for 95 minutes is going to take its toll over a long season as it is already showing with the injuries. Anything can happen in a one off game though so we will see.
As for the pedestrian first half, I think Pellegrini set it up wrong in the first half. Toure playing that role isn't for me. He is either one of a two at home or further forward. By playing him there and delph on the left it just slowed us down, Toure was average and so was Delph but to be fair, Everton were much fresher and up for it in the first half.
However, Pellegrini did well last night. His subs were spot on and changed the game.

Pellegrini should have learned from his mistakes from November against the scousers. I think Everton have a lot more players I'd want at city than Liverpool. The way they are playing now shows how poor they are. Fingers crossed Vinny will be back and with Sergio being unplayable and zabaleta splashing into challenges like he did last night we should put Liverpool away.

Cheers, is that the record for the capital cup now? Would love to give it to the rags twats at work
It might be our record, but the scum had 56,000 when they played Ipswich, so I wouldn't give it large too much mate.

Has that dickhead Tarquin cockney prick been on with any sly comments yet?
We were poor in the first half I thought, and if he had to make subs to put it right, doesn't that suggest he got it wrong in the first place?Manager got everything right. Players reacted well after an early setback. Sterling, Aguero and Fernandinho all excellent.
What was Toure's contribution? At least he took him off after 66 minutes but he should not have started.
In the end we battered them and deservedly went through.
I thought EFC were very poor. Seen Lukaku have some great games and score great goals, but he made Bony look good. My worry going into this game was Lukaku one on one on Demichelis but it didn't happen and instead City's defence dominated them. The only area where we looked weak was in midfield and that got sorted 2nd half.Pellegrini should have learned from his mistakes from November against the scousers.

I thought much the same. City struggled 1st half and Everton had it under control. 2nd half was entirely different. Navas stretched them, and it was one-way traffic.I think that day, was more a case of us turning up expecting to win and then error after error.

Fair play to Manuel last night. I have been very critical of him lately, but his subs were the reason we won the game. Hopefully Kevs injury is not as serious as it looked and he will be back soon. Great to see Zaba back and firing. Oto is like a heat seeking missile without the guidance system. Maybe some serious coaching would calm him down and make him hold position. That or tranquillisers.

Ffs Marv, will you give the Toure bashing a rest. He wasn't near his best last night by any means but he was ok, one major contribution he made was showing Otamendi how to win the ball off Barkley by getting his body in front of Barkley when he had the ball again in a dangerous position.
I'm not bashing him, I'm bashing the decision to start him however poorly he is playing game after game.Ffs Marv, will you give the Toure bashing a rest.

He did the same with Kompany last season. Once he has a bee in his bonnet about a certain player he is relentless and is too stubborn to change his mind and give them any credit no matter how they perform. Will be someone else next season.Ffs Marv, will you give the Toure bashing a rest.

think played first half about right we only needed 1 goal so no need to go gun ho that's how their goal came about we was left wide open after miss placed pass then we stepped up nothing to loose
Otamendi was perfect last night. Maybe the public humiliation he got on TV after West Ham benefited us last night. I know Aguero got mom but Otter was a contenderFair play to Manuel last night.

I don't know if I also speak for StockportMackem (I hope I do), but a massive congratulations from this Sunderland supporter for getting to yet another final. it seems as if that competition is made for MCFC. I don't like either of the Merseyside clubs and love it when anyone beats them - but the icing on the cake is to be beat by a club that my own get's on well with in the semi-final of a cup competition.
I was on late's at Nissan this week so I didn't see SSNHQ last night for regular updates (I don't have SkySports). I hear Sergio played very well indeed. Good to see De Bruyne score. Looked as if you weren't going to make it when Barkley scored in 20 minutes. I dare say with a fully fit side the score would have been more dominant?

Otomendi was the most culpable player for the Everton goal. Sometimes he just needs to stay goal side and on his feet, he is brilliant one on one but it is fine line between being aggressive and playing the percentages when required.Otamendi was perfect last night. Maybe the public humiliation he got on TV after West Ham benefited us last night. I know Aguero got mom but Otter was a contender

First post, YAAAAAWWWNNNN
Second post, perfect eh? Perfectly went to ground to try win the ball from Barkley when he needed to just stay on his feet and not allow him a clean strike on goal.
And I was right. Kompany was awful last season. And this season he started really well.He did the same with Kompany last season. Once he has a bee in his bonnet about a certain player he is relentless and is too stubborn to change his mind and give them any credit no matter how they perform. Will be someone else next season.
I always stick to the football. I wish everyone else would and just comment on the game they watch.
I enjoyed it. great to get to Wembley, but we'd be all the stronger as a side if Toure was used as an impact sub and to my mind that's not me being stubborn, but the manager being stubborn.
Well I will have to watch it all again on TV. My impression of the match was that Otamendi had an excellent game.First post, YAAAAAWWWNNNN
