I missed Sunday's match as I was on holiday in California and I couldn't get out of bed at 5:30 a.m. while on vacation. Frankly, seeing the result, I'm glad I got the extra sleep.

 

But thanks to the snow removal efforts in Washington, DC today, I get to work from home, which means I'll get to watch this match. I hope the boys play with more effort and passion than they did on Sunday. It is a wonderful opportunity to play for a trophy and get something from this mostly disappointing season. COYB!

I think it will be another valiant failure. I can honestly see us doing something like getting beat 2-1 after 90 minutes to force extra time, missing a pen just before the end of extra time, then bottling it and going out badly on pen shoot out.

 

And if it goes to pens, please don't let Stones take one. He thinks he is Pirlo.

how anyone can think about dropping stones against city is beyond me thank fuck your not in charge

 

what about lukaku for jogging around all game against swansea when really if he was sharp and made the runs he's in the team to make he would have had a hatrick.

 

if gerry is on his game on the counter we have a massive chance of getting through tonight.

Really not sure about that line up.

 

I thought the idea would be to keep it tight using Lennon as a wingback, then try to nick a goal using Deulofeu as an impact sub. Seems we are going to try and do it the other way round. Not confident at all.

agreed and i don't like osman in there either. wish it was coleman and pienaar.

 

Ossie has probably played more big games for us than anyone else in the squad, we need experience/sensible heads tonight, I've no problem with him at all. Plus he almost scored a superb goal against them the other week. Plus we wouldn't be here without his goal v Norwich (I've said that before).

 

He won't last 90/120 mins but he's unlikely to let us down.
