Once again I am a touch late with this ( due to change of work hours ). I expected there to be lots of chat about the game by now, but there really isn't that much on their forums. I have deliberately avoided the ‘build up to the cup final thread’, because I don't want to spoil the surprise before the final. It will also change depending on what happens tomorrow night.
I don't care how it happens, I just want three points at the end of the night, and of course a healthy team at the final whistle.

My Favourite
Looks like Yaya will be playing on wednesday. the FA are a f**king joke.
and the rest…
I just hope we don't take a battering off Man City as it may give them the physiological edge when we meet again in the cup final.
Id follow Chelsea's tactics and have Cattermole and Bridcutt sat in front of the back four. Borini Ki Johnson infront and Altidore up top.
I really fancy a draw…..
I reckon we will get something, 'cos:
1) We always do
2) They are a few key players down
3) AJ has a point to prove
4) Right time to play them - they have dropped form
If we get anything from this game it will be a massive bonus..
We should have a right go City. Even if we lose it'll make them think a bit when the final comes round…
Well Man City haven't sold out for Wednesday night, what with them being a top team with 100's of millions of pounds of talent on the pitch so I think that lets us off the hook.
City looked very dodgy in the air at the back against norwich,so for me wickham or altidore upfront
Can you imagine if City lost 2 home games in a row. Pellegrini's job would be on the line and it would be a full blown crisis!
