Welcome back Vinnie. Lovely to see you and all that....

But after the teams have walked out onto the hallowed turf, then let's batter them.

A home draw in a qtr final is a good draw. Let's make the most of it. Imagine we'll put out a very strong side in the last game before the international break. Another trip to Wembley beckons which is incentive enough

3-1
Mahrez

Yes you’re right. Bernardo is suspended. I don’t think Gundogan is. Glad Laporte gets a run. Phillips not starting which says it all. I guess he might have done but for the international break but Pep clearly doesn’t trust him even against Burnley.
