As Mabbs said, to be the best you got to beat the best.
Yep was thinking the same, if we want to win it the drawing them early at home is one of the best options.City will be there are the end anyhow, so might as well get them in the earlier stages at home.
What date will it be?Everyone putting a brave face on it but it's a lousy draw tbh. We could really have done with a nice cup run but going against an in form Citeh with our central defence so severely depleted and no Sonny is pretty rough.
Weekend of Jan 27th I think. Likely it’ll be the Sunday afternoon match (28th) but who knows.What date will it be?
I fucking miss himWhat we need is someone with that extra bit of creativity.
Someone who consistently makes the right decision in the final third.
Someone who can create something out of nothing….

It will be on tv, hopefully not another Friday but then with playing the following Wednesday might be better for the players. It will be Interesting to see how the teams return from the winter break.Weekend of Jan 27th I think. Likely it’ll be the Sunday afternoon match (28th) but who knows.
I don't think Romero will be back. But at CB we should have VDV and Dragusin. In midfield we should be able to choose from Maddison, Bentancur, GLC and Kulusevski. And up front Werner, Richarlison and JohnsonWell at least the team will be up for it. Might be able to get a result at home even without Sonny and others. At least we should have Maddison and VDV back and maybe Romero possibly??
Depleted? The game is on 27th or 28th of Jan. By then VDV will be fully back and we'll have the Dragon, Royal, hopefully Kelly and Romero might be back by then as well. We can't always rely on other teams to knock these big guns out, let's do our own dirty work. Bring 'em on!Everyone putting a brave face on it but it's a lousy draw tbh.
