Positives about drawin city

[manxblade]

Our fans will be louder than theirs. As posted already if true we have knocked them out of the fa cup 6 out of 6 times

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

I'm not even worried.

We'll do 'em.

 

[Large Mendonca]

Other than that, none whatsoever. I feel that our chips have been pissed on.

 

[Drunk blade]

They play Arsenal 3 or 4 days after the semi final... I imagine a number of first team players will be rested but its still a nightmare task

 

[BladesOnToast]

means we won't have to play 'em in final

 

[Sneinton Blade 1952]

We need to put Haaland out in the first five minutes ... . A task for Robbo ...

 

[Rodley]

Fancy us strongly.

 

[Chris the Blade]

Bayern the Wednesday before, Arsenal the Wednesday after. Two massive games for them. They're bound to rest a few

 

[Rodley]

Remember seeing Haaland playing for Dortmund, and thinking his only obvious Achilles heel is playing against hard-nosed Scousers with long throws and wily stoppers from Cork.

 

[Ginger Gnome]

Doyle and McAtee won't have to miss the final

 

[Chris the Blade]

Haaland won't play. It'll be Alcatraz up front

 

[Kempy]

Read the last bit as Willy stoppers . Made me laugh more

Given that Man U are playing on the prior Thursday, I'd say it's almost certain our game will be on the Saturday.

We'll have an extra days rest from a home game against Cardiff, City will have a day fewer having been to Germany.

There's never a good time to play City, but the way things have fallen is about as good as they could be for us.

Just need the City squad to come down with the trots on their return from Munich now...

It's already jinxed...

6 out of 6 cup wins
Never been an all Manc final

It's written in the stars how this ends lol.

Like that matters there is a first time for everything

 

[manxblade]

I know I'm clutching at straws

 

[Camden Blade]

Can get drunk and kidney punch every City fan in sight because the game will be secondary.

 

[Camden Blade]

PS what's best way to get a kidney punch in? Not even sure where they are? Sneak up from behind?

 

[ATL Recs]

And Bayern 3 or 4 days before on 19
April

 

[JimW1889]

We get a good day out at Wembley. We theoretically could win.

A low windmill just behind the rib cage

A low windmill just behind the rib cage

Got it. Tactics.

 

[Antonb]

cannot think of any positives to be honest

 

[HillmortonBlade]

In order to win the FA Cup we have to beat the best teams. The pressure is all on City, but once we reach the final, it should be a more relaxing game.

 

[Colombia Blade]

Doyle and McAtee will be nice and fresh for the league games

 

[Dkc]

Doyle and McAtee will be nice and fresh for the league games

I thought that. Also they will both be eligible to play in the final should we make it.

Admittedly they are a huge loss, but we can take heart from the entire team performance today.

 

[Greg.]

All 3 other teams in the semis are in top form anyway:

PS what's best way to get a kidney punch in? Not even sure where they are? Sneak up from behind?

I’ve found out over my many years of kidney punching opposing fans, is if you tip them out of their wheelchair first, they have a spasmodic response to clutch the area around the kidneys. Bingo, bullseye.

 

[LudlamBlade]

Jebbo's time to shine

 

[ancientblade]

i think we might play jebbo up top with nidaye and mcburnie behind in a 3421 formation haarland and de bruyne will both be on their bench
