Tight hamstring, doubt for Sunday. Gutted.

Sorry for the negative thread, big concern though.

@IanCheeseman: David Silva injury a hamstring - confirmed by Platt - big doubt for semi - he described it as "tight" #mcfc

Time for Nasri to step up. Or release the Yaya

devastation. he deserves to play. Micah fit so I'd move Zabba into midfield.

No seriously so we can push Yaya devastatingly forward

Yeh but he's not match fit. A massive ask expecting him to make his first appearance for almost 6 months in an FA Cup semi final. Too risky IMO

Tevez for silva, Aguero for tevez

you are probably right. but i wouldn't risk someone in reserve football this season if there was any doubt. For a few weeks I've thought about Micah playing right side of midfield. Its the only place i'd risk playing Maicon

I really think Micah is the reason were not top of the league regardless to the Van rapist

He did play 90mins for the EDS today I heard but that's quite different than semi final of FA Cup.. I think we have enough options without him too

Oh bollocks! get the little Arse out tomorrow till Friday doing 5 min splits on a 15k run

that will sort his ego out.

Thats the correct call I reckon. Maybe Garcia for Nasri and push Yaya forward more

Could be an answer.

I was thinking the same thing. Whether Bobby is or not....

A few things for sunday, given last night sewed up a top 3 finish, as if we win our last 4 home games, neither Spurs or Arse can top us.

- Hart must play, no question at all
- Do not play Garcia alongside Barry, it never works
- If Silva cant play, Aguero should come in. Apart from that, Id leave the team as it is.

Push yaya forward, garcia in for nasri. or just bring aguero in.

I don't think the goalkeeper will be a telling point.
I absolutely agree with your Garcia and Barry choice - play one of them, not both of them.
If Silva can't play, bring in Aguero and play Tevez in a deeper role.

Thought he was pretty good last night. Needs to be in the centre more rather than come off the wing imo.

He showed signs of getting back to his best last night. He knows he's not performed to his full ability this year but hopefully that will change next season.

Barry unavailable after 5th yellow if I'm not mistaken.

Mistaken I believe, the 5 yellow card rule doesn't count after a certain point in the season, mid/late January-ish I seem to recall. I think the magic number is 10 after that.

Yeah just looked it up only 10 counts after December 31st which is a relief. As I was under the assumption that it was much later as in the end of April.

Fingers crossed for David Silva but i doesnt look good for him being fit for sunday , he will be a big big miss. Demba Ba looks as if he will miss the semi for Chelsea aswell so that just leaves Torres upfront for them ......
