As long as we don’t go to extra time

 

[Lavinda Past]

Great team.

We are City. Up the Blues!

2-1 City today, no extra time necessary.

dont hold your breath

We all know he will dribble the ball 20 yards towards their box, drop the shoulder and play a safe pass back to Zinchenko or Fernandinho.

Liverpool have gone strong

Wish Pep had Klopp’s balls to tell a 2nd keeper to stay on the bench in a semi.

 

[Father Paul]

Oh well, that side isn't winning today I'm afraid. I'll be ecstatic to eat my words.

I went yesterday for a narrow defeat but I think given the circumstances that is a very useful 11. Ferno may lack a bit of pace but I reckon he can do a good job for 60 or so and I look forward to seeing either Phil or Jack in the KDB role. Yet again Bernardo will cover the ground. I think we will put up a fight.

 

[SWP's back]

No surprises with the team, it's obviously not full strength like Liverpool's, but Raheem does like the spaces at Wembley.

not you as well Tolm? It’s smaller than the Etihad pitch and we have this conversation every year in here.

 

[FantasyIreland]

The tramps will destroy that team.

Its fine being a Big Blue/happy clapper but you also have to be realistic,and that team isn't strong enough to beat a full strength Dipper side.

 

[GazM]

No problem with the team given the midweek exploits. If there is one game we have to lose before the end of the season it'll have to be this one. Let's enjoy the ride. C'mon City.

 

[pudge]

I’d never do that but please enlightened me as to what team should be out there given our situation

Well, for one, I don't see how the fixture pile up affects the 'keepers so much. Steffen, imo, is very poor.

Vendetta lol, he has yet to have his breakthrough game

He had a breakthrough 20 minutes against United
