Return of back 4. Hause stays as more pace than Engels. Nyland Targett Hause Mings Elmo G Fenton Jack Nakamba Luiz Maradona Samatta I guess I have no idea how to resolve our midfield balance. Nice idea about making a surprise selection, like we did back in 1994. Trouble is Graham Fenton is 45 and past it now. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OLDVILLAN Posted February 23, 2020 Share Posted February 23, 2020 (edited) great day out for us fans...but nothing else..im trying to remain positive,but every premier manager and their cat knows our turgid one dimensional style that smith wont/uncapable of changing. I just hope its not a cricket score against us...we need a fightback and it has to start here.

Keyblade Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I feel like if Davis plays we have the slightest chance. We need someone to hold the ball to relieve the intense pressure we'll be under. I don't think Fernandinho will be able to cope with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raver50032 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Controversial view coming up, so don't get too triggered... We kind of know (gut feel at least) that this has the potential for a big, humiliating defeat live and exclusive on Sky Sports... A Pep love in. So why not do a Liverpool? Play the kids... Maybe keep Nyland in... That way, when we get bummed, the media will be more about how plucky the kids were in defeat and how brave they were to go up against the mighty super-heroes of Manchester City. Even in defeat, we could be proud of them... unlike the first team who just seem to have rolled over. Yeah... I'm just kidding. It's a bad idea... Grit your teeth, grin and bear it. Que sera.

OxfordVillan Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 We simply have to pray that City sustain injuries to Aguero, Sterling, KDB, Silva, & Jesus. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheMelvillan Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 Personally I think that City's ban should have extended to domestic cup finals.. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Delphinho123 Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 We will try and play it around at the back and put ourselves under an immense amount of pressure like we always do. If they score early, well, it could be a cricket score. Play Davis, get it long and work the channels to relieve pressure. 0-5 City. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AVFCDAN Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 This will be a close one for me, not out of the question for us to win it either. Still think we will go down but have a feeling this will be a tight one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
It's Your Round Posted February 24, 2020 Share Posted February 24, 2020 I’m hopeful we can pull off a miracle and lift the cup. But in reality I fear this we will be a brutal bumming of the worst order, the sort of degradation that only happens in the worst Venezuelan prisons. The biggest man in the prison, no spit and lots of pain 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villan_of_oz Posted February 24, 2020 VT Supporter Share Posted February 24, 2020 (edited) I remember thinking we were going to beat Arsenal, even convinced my Man U loving father-in-law that we were going to beat them.... Watching the game at 3 in the morning and pretty sure he went home after Per's goal and thanked me for ruining a good night's sleep!
