I assume lt iis still 0-0. I see we play Arsenall if we get through.

I don't understand the hate he gets from some posters on here. He is still young and clearly has talent and scope to develop. Bluemoon seems to be infested by joyless that's who are not happy unless they are slagging the club, manager or players off.

I can't forget that image of him in the aftermath of the Sergio Aguero winner. The stadium was shaking on its foundations and everybody associated with City, bar one, was going nuts. That exception was Kolo Toure. He didn't show a flicker of emotion and had a face like a wet Sunday. First team...

I am lucky to have seen Nijinsky in his pomp, my boyhood hero. Yaya's 2013/14 season was mind blowing. Kev has been a joy to watch and seems a great guy. Just imagine those three in the same team. I've been priveliged to see them all and would never say one was better than the other two.

Michael Cooper, the Sheff Utd keeper, always looks rock solid to me. If the Blades miss out on promotion they will struggle to keep hold of him. He is a good age (25) and English, so ticks a lot of boxes.

Do you know which age group is so highly rated ? U14s ? U15 ? If they are better than this years youth cup team they must be very special. I think about 6 or 7 of the team that won at WBA are eligible for next years youth cup. Finlay Gorman is still a 5th year schoolboy and is eligible for 2...

This match will be live and free of charge on the FA player. It looks like the player is showing all the quarter finals starting with Watford v Southampton on the 25th.

He was easily our standout player. It is astounding the way he surges forward with the ball. He is a boy mountain now and still has time to grow even taller.

First: Old Trafford 1966 World Cup Hungary v Portugal. Worst: Oldham late 80s. Best Highbury 1986 before the North Bank and Clock End were redevoped. Last: AFC Fylde. Miss Maine Road 1971/72 that season when the North Stand was all standing. Scariest: Leeds 26/2/1977. Everyday since has been a...

Is there any chance Lauren Hemp will be back for these games ?

I remember that game as it was the first time I saw City lose at home. Before that day I had been to Maine Road about 20 times and stupidly thought I was a lucky charm.

I was mightily impressed by Joan Garcia the Espanyol keeper when they beat Real Madrid 1-0 last weekend. He looks very agile and managed to get 2 hands to most of his saves. I find it strange that so many keepers can only get one hand to so many shots. He is 23 years old and 6 foot 3 inches...

A day in York and a crackerjack looking game is very tempting. The winner will face WBA away in the quarter finals.

As Arsenal are wearing their "Marty Hopkirk" kit, it would be fitting if Sterling ghosts in at the far post for the winner.

If we beat Millwall in the Youth Cup, this week, we will face AFC Fylde or Leeds away. Fylde's impressive stadium, in Wesham, is just a few miles from my home. Leeds, our probable opponent, would be a rematch of last years final.
