5th Round Draw/Leeds at home (all in here)

[Blue_Moon]

could get very very tasty if the rags play on the same day.

surely the powers that be make sure that doesn't happen?

U****d were drawn at home too? There's things in place to ensure neither of us play on the same day at home (happened just once in recent seasons) but I imagine they'll be televised as usual. Perhaps City 2pm Sunday and U****d at 5.30pm Saturday.

I suspect GMP will want us to kick off as early as possible.

Great draw. Pleased to be home, pleased to have avoided the best sides and pleased there's an element of glamour to the tie. And pleased I know loads of Leeds fans too. A win in this one puts us one game from wembley of course.

Agreed but they are horrible cunts, always have been and always will. Whoever cleans stands will hoover up a fortune in loose change

I'm going to say this now. Play Dzeko and we will get beat. We need 11 battlers on the pitch against Leeds, we can't carry anyone who doesn't get stuck in. Tevez and Aguero with Mario coming in as back up if needed.

It's a valid point.

Since Dzeko has joined City we have won nothing at all and our leading scorer in the premiership this season will be of no use against Leeds United.

Dzeko gets far too much stick. He used to be a midfielder and you can see that in some of the defence splitting passes he creates. Also, he holds the ball up brilliantly . His finishing can be
a bit off at times but his football in other area is great imo.

He's just a poor mans Quinny!

I don't think they will be disappointed

Fucking lol, over-reaction much, play Dzeko and theres a very good chance he'll score.

City and United never play on the same day both at home due to policing...

DEFENCE SPLITTING PASSES?????????????? Dzeko hardly ever finds a pass and when he does its usually to the opposition

F@cking troll. 11 battlers with mario = 10 battlers and 1 can't be arsed.

WTF does Dzeko have to do? He's started the last 5 and we've won them all.

I know that, my reference was to the suggestion of a 2pm kick off
