You seen the rags away record?

Just thought I'd add that our recent Wembley record isn't much to brag about.

it's pretty woeful, and we don't score many goals either down there. We seem to give the opposition too much respect at Wembley.

We didn’t with Watford.
This game is entirely different, immortality beckons. I really believe we will see a footballing demolition tomorrow which will lead us nicely onto Istanbul.
This team, on its day, is unbeatable and tomorrow the world over will see it.

These are the messages I need to be reading :)

It'll be pre-game nerves but the only advantage I can see them having (other than flexible interpretations of the off side rule) is that there's a possible situation in which their players can afford to "leave it all on the pitch" with them having nothing on the horizon. Hoping the players dont play within themselves with one eye on the other final which we did see happen in that last game before the world cup.

Another performance similar to the Madrid game will see us right though.

Varane giving the city teamtalk for them

Which games are those? I can think of a few where we weren’t 100% at it for various reasons. Liverpool & Leicester come to mind. Which other ones?

 

[BertTrautmann'sParachute]

just seen that clip of Ten Hag rallying the rag hordes after their last game ‘I’m sure that these players will give everything to beat Manchester City next week’.

Irrespective of the result, what a small time twat. They’re a match made in heaven.

Ming the clueless. Can't stand the ****.

Only one way this game is going - like every single team that plays us only more so - they will have been practicing since the semi with 11 across the back, blocking anything and everything, hoping for a fast break or penalties. Let's face it, we have struggled against teams like that this season; Brentford, Everton?

Still think we will win but be prepared for these tactics and a lot of clogging and cheating. They will try everything to stop us.

Obviously anything can happen in a one-off game, especially a derby in a final. However, we’re a far superior side to them, we’re fully rested, have no injuries and have a treble to play for. We’re big favourites with the bookies for a reason, and I fully trust this team and manager. Team largely picks itself:

Ortega
Walker
Stones
Dias
Akanji
Rodri
Gundogan
De Bruyne
Bernardo
Grealish
Haaland

Only question marks really are Akanji/Ake, and Bernardo/Foden.

Come on City.

Mahrez has played (and played very well) in every FA Cup game this season. I think Pep might start him.
