Huddersfield v City post match

Wagner: "Did we have some chances? Two or three. One very good one. But Man City were better team."
Sounds like a man easily impressed. I thought we were poor for much of the game. Back 4 and Bravo did OK, but Nolito, Delph and Navas are just irredeemable lightweights. An awful lot of wrong options taken. Main thing is we're in the hat for the next round. I'm not usually one for squawking about not playing the kids, but 16 years old and physically lacking or not, Sancho or Foden couldn't have fared much worse than one or two of our regular reserves today
 
Field a weak team to save fitness, now have to play 90s minutes extra.
 
We could do with the replay being arranged for March 1st, as Huddersfield are at home to Newcastle on the Saturday, and in the meantime have Reading away (Tue), then Barnsley away (Sat).

I don't think the date will matter. We will beat them at home unless we have a serious off day. We have no reason not to play a stronger side and they have every reason not to.
 
Could have done without another game. But it was a perfect storm for an upset, so we've dodged that

Unfortunately a team with a midfield that includes Navas, Delph and Nolito is always gonna struggle. No creativity or threat at all

In hindsight we rested too many of our big match winners... but hopefully it will work in our favour when we beat Monaco and win the replay
 
Pep got it wrong for me. Could have at best had 10 days off before our next league game, at worst a week off before the derby, which we wouldn't get later in the season.

Now we have a needless extra game, at least it means we come back earlier and get a game in our system after the break before the league. This is a trophy Pep should be looking to bank first season so to not take it completely seriously and basically state his stars can't beat Huddersfield and Monaco in the same week and stay fit is rather concerning.

Well he made his choice, now we have to beat Monaco by a couple of goals and a clean sheet and win the tie, no excuses.

and yeah "you're a rag", "Pep out he knows nothing", "Bet you were sobbing Huddersfield didn't score" blah-dee-blah-dee-blah. Thought I'd get them in first this time.

Ridiculous post. We have a strong squad fully capable of trouncing Huddersfield, but they underwhelmed today. Not sure how you feel Pep's to blame here.

Or perhaps you think he should have played Spanish Dave or Sterling to risk them getting injured, like Kolarov did? Then after our form dips further, you'd find new reason to blame Pep yet again.

Honestly, you'd think by some of the responses here we'd lost.
