First ever Manchester Derby final

[Didsbury Dave]

Why does this nonsense keep cropping up?

We have a team of lads,at least half a dozen,who would kick fuck out of most if things turn physical/nasty.

Haaland, Walker, Dias, Rodri, Laporte and Ederson would be my City ruck squad if things got nasty.

While the pressure is high, why not go for the jugular and smash the rags in the fa cup final at the same time? High risk, high stakes but it is in front of us.

Same time as what? I can’t understand this post no matter how many times I read it.

Thank god Ortega will be in net if it goes to pens
Ederson never saves any penalties for some reason

I was wondering how he is at penalties. If he's any good he should be brought on if a game is looking like going to penalties. It's no disrespect to Ederson but he's never anywhere near them. I was one of the 10,000 who saw him actually save one though against Everton in the Sergio farewell game. So he has saved one. Caballero was brilliant at penalties.

Does anyone know why the rags reserve keeper does not play in cup games?

The unspoken winning of three certain trophies in the same season.

Well I’m sure we are going to try. What’s the alternative?

The team selection. For the first time in 6 years, Pep appears to have established a first choice starting 11.

This is the perfect storm of a season , beat the media darlings to the title , revenge on Real for last years semi-final and putting the Rags in their place at Wembley , this could be the pinnacle of my 50 odd years as a blue , and its not a pipedream but a distinct possibility , drink it in Blues.

What you dont think he should experiment with walker dias midfield foden left back stones and haaland up front and the kit man in goal? Sounds like you are doubting our leader
