FA Cup 3rd Round Draw

[IcriedwhenTueartleft]

Who did chelsea get?

Southampton v Chelsea

Must be their hardest cup draw for a while, they usually always seem to get Dog & Duck style teams in the FA Cup.

And they tend to play their second string in the ealry rounds, wonder if they'll do that this year if they're out of Europe CL and the title race?

Watford can be tricky G. Zola just started working there in the summer with the same owners as Udinese and Spanish Granada has, they sell/buy cheap players and move them between teams and they can finish in play off places in Championship which is a little bit above their goals or squad strength as no one predicted Bolton/Wolves being so mediocre after their relegation.

At home we should go trough or it could be a joke loss like City-Nottingham with Hughes. No need for replay

Swansea-Arsenal haha, good humour by the fate just after they met yesterday.

 

[Fuzzy Logic]

Make it a tenner and i might go to this one. If it's over £15 then close the 3rd tiers, we'll be looking at 32,000 at best

 

[SS117]

Shite draw

 

[MihaiCity]

A good draw for we regading that we at home and utd chelsea play away at WHU and saints

 

[kunaguero10]

Pantilimon

Maicon
Toure
Nastasic
Kolarov

Milner
Razak
Suarez
Sinclair

Balotelli
Dzeko

Or something.

rekik could well start, wouldn't be surprised if evans starts too. a few more on the bench

 

[jimharri]

Think we might play on Sunday morning, and then pop down to Arsenal for afternoon PL game. How dim are our website editors?

Some of the mistakes they make are amateurish. Still; they do more good stuff than bad, I guess.

By the way; what's a ''legde''?

If there was ever a time to set a ticket price that will fill COMS, this is it.

Official site saying it'll be played between 11-14th, presume that's wrong and it'll be the weekend before ?

I'm certain it's the week before.

It is mate 100%

 

[JoeMercer'sWay]

tricky draw, but a good one nonetheless, they won't be easy to beat with all those Udinese lads they get on loan from their owner.

 

[City Raider]

i think their style is quite open, score a few, concede a few away from home

it should suit us but if we play like we did against villa anything is possible

 

[Como Cat]

Pleased with the draw but we need to win this, preferably comfortably, at first attempt. Watford shouldn't be underestimated. A strong side with a sprinkling of youth would suit me. And, whatever ticket price ensures a 40k crowd.

 

[Anonymous]

do we want out of this? rather win the title.

You have whole weekends for the fa cup, i think we should fuck europa off and go for the league and fa cup.

Would be good to see suarez and guidetti etc.

Yeah, we should definitely go for the League Cup....

read it again.

 

[i8rags]

Through, this thread should be fourth round draw.

 

[Deleted member 52846]

I don't really like home cup games, I find them quite boring and don't like the low crowds. Would have liked a good away tie at a big club from a lower division but Watford at home should be straightforward enough so can't complain really. Would absolutely love to get back to Wembley this year for another FA Cup win.

A good draw ......

Watford have only won half their fixtures this season , and have lost almost as many as they've won away from home ...... we should be able to comfortably see them off , and let's hope we do or those ignorant clowns on MOTD will have a field day !

However i do hope that Mancini doesn't weaken the side too much ..... we don't have as much genuine quality in depth as we like to think , and have been found out on occasion !

 

[greasedupdeafguy]

My team would be -

Hart

Maicon
Kompany
Lescott
Kolarov

Yaya (last game before acon?)
Milner

Silva
Tevez
Balo
Sinclair

Dont see the point in playing a really weak team as there is no mid week games and we will probably not have any european football after Christmas.
