Blackburn V City FA Cup Pre Match Thread

[Bluep*ss]

No fucking way I'd be playing Kompany and Silva. Not worth the risk.

We don't have much choice. I'd rather our best team tomorrow rather than Wednesday.

If he's going to prioritise he will surely prioritise west ham, as we are one win from the final, and we can make the second leg a dead rubber.

Can't see Big Sam coming to get "hammered" - sorry about pun - I think he will do a "Pullis" and hope for a 0-0 at the Etihad then he will defend for 70 mins at west Ham then try for a late goal. As for tomorrow Rovers will be up for it after there win at Leeds last match. I'll say 2-1 to City.

I bet City don't wear that white away cup shirt tomorrow . I think the draw was fixed so we couldn't wear are cup shirt tomorrow .

Back four looks a bit dodgy to me, not for me

would this work?

I think that could definitely work. We would miss Silva's creativity, though.

I think Nasri, Lopes and Milner could provide that.

Keep Silva, Nasri and Navas fit for the Cardiff game, Aguero to come on and play last 20 please

Would normally prioritise FA Cup over Capital One, but not now were at SF stage. I'm not that bothered about the FA Cup this year, it could just get in the way of our PL and CL campaigns. Play a strong team on Wednesday and 2nd leg could be a formality.

I just died inside a little.

You sound very raggish.

I am bothered about the FA Cup and I hope the players will be too, especially after last May.

I think we will have a tough game tomorrow.

Anybody think we will see Guidetti next to one of Dzeko or Negredo? With the League Cup semi in the week I can't see Pellegrini playing Dzeko and Negredo together in this, I don't know.

Fernandinho for me should be rested in this game, hasn't he played in all the games we have had over the festive period?

Lopes will get some time hopefully as well!!

Ha Ha, you never fail do you, our very own voice of doom

Blackburn have sold around 10,000 now for tomorrow, so City fans won't be outnumbered by many.

A fair number of City have bought tickets from Blackburn. Wouldn't surprise me if it was more like =/=

Watch how many jump up when we score!!!
