Well for people who always beg for youth to get a chance; today is your day!

Hope we can keep the winning streak alive and a few of the youngsters do their reputations well.

COME ON CITY!!!

Blimey...

That's a brave selection. I know I've called for kids to be played but... Well I hope his faith in so many kids is rewarded. Would be great if they can all play 'the City way', but I think Puel may be considering bringing on Vardy & Mahrez against the central defence if he wants to get to the semis.

We can prob kiss goodbye the treble now. Considering its quarters id of preferred a stronger team but can see why he picked it.

I remember a few years ago this would have been the biggest game in our recent history and they usually ended in disappointment!
derby day the scores were level,
then the goat was fed by neville,
silly boy should know for sure,
feed the goat and he will score!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

From the BBC - 'Lots of weakened teams. Ben Foden starts for Man City. Joe Hart starts for West Ham.'

How times have changed for England's no.1!

Not sure why Ben is playing football either :D

Diaz and Foden are playing - that will do for me regardless of the result.
