no fucking about, smash the cunts for 5 or 6 early then take players off before the snide cunts try taking them out of contention for istanbul

That's the team, I think, but I'd be hesitant about excluding Phil. Think what this game means to him. He's been in superb form, as well, and could be selected simply on merit. Jack's been terrific, so has Bernie. A difficult one. I would at least hope that Phil gets to come on in the second half.

Couldn't get a ticket, going to the pub to watch it with some people from work.
Two of them are rags, two are Villa and three are dippers.
Fuck me, i can see me getting nicked

doubt it as it will be 6 on 2 because despite everything said dans of other clubs hate thr rag more tham us

phil maybe for berny, but I would play jack, too many games out may male him rusty

That'll be the rags once the fifth goes in on 70 mins.

Their manager was on the pitch with a microphone yesterday rallying the crowd up and his team. A rallying call to arms I’d say. Mentioning that his team would give it their all in trying to beat us. The gloves are well and truly off now boy blues

Shows how far they have fallen. That's small time behavior. It's the kind of thing you would expect if Rotherham got to the final, then it'd be fair enough.

Reckon Pep would ever get on the microphone in the middle of the pitch a week early having to whip us up to win an FA Cup final? - Ferguson wouldn't have either, not like that.

Just shows this is their biggest day in many years, it isn't ours.

That's basically the team I'm expecting, especially outfield. Not sure what he will do in terms of keeper.

Although that's the team I was fully expecting v Inter too and Pep has hinted both teams need to be approached differently.

So maybe the two line ups might differ.

According to the Evening News, Akanji, de Bruyne, Dias and Grealish are all major doubts.

 

[mancityscot]

Apologies if already explained, but whats the reason grealish and dias havent even trained in 10 days? is it a rest or injury related? Seems a long lay off with no football.

 

[nellyonthewing]

My deep seated paranoia when playing the rag scum is simmering to the boil.
- Will our A players having a well earned layoff disrupt our recent fluency?
- Are some of them injured and peps hiding it? or is he playing mind games with the rags.?
- is he (god forbid) keeping them wrapped in cotton wool and saving them for the Milan final.?

Where the hell did I leave those diazepam?
