Re: Would you take a draw on Sunday?

No, it's almost like i'd rather lose. Really can't be doing with an extra game.

Re: Would you take a draw on Sunday?

I can't believe people are saying they'd rather lose than draw and play an extra game...

Re: Would you take a draw on Sunday?

no, could do with Wigan drawing though so our match against them gets moved back to a saturday

This! Don't want to play Wigan on a Monday night, Saturday 12:45 would be perfect away day!

Toure Brothers should refuse to travel until after the Derby.

Re: City v United FA Cup Thread

Big game, to heap more misery on United.

I'd start 4-4-2 -

Hart
Richards-Kompany-Lescott-Clichy
Nasri-Milner-Barry-Silva
Aguero-Dzeko

Subs - Pantillimon, Savic, Zabaleta, DeJong, , Suarez, Johnson, Nimely

barrys suspended

No, I'd prefer to win. But although a replay wouldn't be ideal, it's still better than losing.

Why some of you are 'resting' Clichy is beyond me?? Kolarov should be no where near the first team in a game of this magnitude.

Would love to see this team on Sunday.

Re: Would you take a draw on Sunday?

All of you saying no would presumably be happy if with the game meandering to a 0-0 draw the rags score an injury time winner.

Hurrah no replay, well played Wayne, great goal.

Daft question

Good answer to a silly question. Who wants to be in the Hat for the 4th round ? - we all do. Preferably 6 -1, but two nil/nils and a victory on penalties is still better than losing to anybody, let alone United.

Re: Would you take a draw on Sunday?

Look. We are playing an inferior team. Would I fuck be happy with a draw. We win, or we lose trying. There is no scenario in which a draw is good a result.

Would you take a draw on Sunday?

I'd take a draw. Remember we lost 3-0 last season before beating them in the semi. They have just lost 3-0, so must be favourites. Many other reasons spring to mind:

- they have never lost three in a row
- teams tend to win after a 0-3 defeat
- Rooney is due to return to form
- they are still smarting after the 1-6
- we have no Yaya
- we have no Barry
- we have no Kolo
- we have Lescott

A draw and then the opportunity to play them again at their place later in the month would give us the chance to win the tie, as some of the above factors would no longer apply.

We have a great opportunity to win everything this season, and it is crucial we win the replay.
