Top 4 playing each other will open this up a bit

Well, shit.

As everyone else says, at least its at home. And if we get through that, one of Arsenal or Liverpool will be out too, so the draw could open up quite a bit then.

It'll be the Saturday 12.45 game I reckon. They couldn't make us play Chelsea Sunday and Barcelona Tuesday.

Presumably Chelsea also have a CL game the week after? So tough decisions for both managers. Ditto Arsenal, though Liverpool can play full strength side.

Win or lose, I hope it's not a draw with a replay to follow causing further, unneeded, congestion to our fixture list.

So happy with draw. What a time to be ca City fan. Liverpool or Arse out and we progress at the expense of Chelsea. They will be gutted....

Big big February then ... twice we play Chelsea and of course there is that team from Spain ... good thing is they're all coming to Etihad and given out home record ... I bet they and their fans are shitting themselves more than we can even pretend we are over here ...

Bring em on ... only one concern I have is this Chelsea tie will be on 15 or 16 and then Barca is on 18 ...

Anyone pls look up when Chelsea's CL tie is?? And when Arse's CL tie is as well as one of our game or thenArse/Liverpool will be on Sat and other on Sun ... we can do with this being a Sat game!

I don't think so. Their game is the week after. City and Arsenal have a huge disadvantage as neither Chelsea or Dippers play for a week after

I see Chelsea's away match is later on. This is a very bad draw. It just shows why a quadruple is pretty nearly impossible. If we get any sort of result in the first leg we have to favour the CL not the FA Cup. It's much more important.

Absolutely this for me aswell . All the top 4 drawn against each other opens the competition right up for us if we can beat Chelski. We are home just before the next CL stage so cant really see Mourinho going full strength against us , Pellegrini on the other hand will .
Not really here
