It’s my fault anyway. City never win on my birthday.

Leicester 5-2 was the last game on this date.

At least I have nice beer to drink to forget it.

Sorry all.

happy birthday! :)

Our priority as always is the premier league and the champions league. Adding the two domestic cup competitions would just be an added bonus. Tonight injuries meant we had to go light and take a chance. We did okay but failed. No shame in that.

This season it’s even less of a priority seeing as we’d be facing the prospect of playing a team full of EDS lads in the quarter finals

A very good summation of a disappointing but predictable night.
Far superior to those bias sky fuckwit commentators wetting themselves at our downfall.
I honestly feel sorry for Phillips being put in this position. It’s not his fault we god knows how thought he was a suitable understudy for the best holding midfielder around at the moment.

Rags getting a home draw looks like it's fucked us up fitting the Brentford game in when the next round is played.

Rags drawn at home? I’m shocked.

Stole the bernardo song for Anthony fucking Gordon. That was the real disgrace.

Next May this will look as it did when we went out at Soton, In Turkey at the moment and watched Liverpool in a bar really struggle against Leicester who with better and calm finishing would have been out of sight! Cup football!!!!

No where near as clever or technical as Kane. I don't think he did make tge difference in games, just my opinion..the goals tally as a team is key..kanecwould have been better buy..for 4 or 5 years even

I remember that time before Haaland when we won the treble. Great times

Not knowing what was happening in the QFs made it hollow and I'm glad we got drawn away to save on the cup scheme as I didn't want to put a penny into a comp that we may need to forfeit.

If we keep the same system as Saturday before the Red, I can just see Kovacic coming in for Rodri for Wolves.

Rags drawn at home? I’m shocked.

12 domestic cup home draws

The odds of that are 4096 to 1 apparently
