    Is that what they were playing - the zonal method? It was that bad I couldn't honestly tell! Everyone has a player he's responsible for - that's the best way.

    Bournemouth at home's a shoe in. They don't travel particularly well and we owe them for that spanking at their place. A surprise result on any of the others and a draw would be a great outcome.

    Other teams pull off shocks against the top teams, why not us?

    Dawson was injured. Jak was in goal, the CBs didn't crowd him. It wasn't perfect, but it was better. With 3 in the back we ned disciplined space and comand from the GK.

    There are definitely fixtures remaining that we 'could' win. We really do need to take points off our bottom 3 rivals. Sunderland Home, Swansea Home, Middlesbrough Home, Burnley Home. That's 4 games we could definitely win.

    Agree in the FA cup , but surely not going to just throw the towel in on a semi final? .. I'd give my right nut to see City win a cup final at Wembley

    Lets hope he brings an attacking style and we've got a chance but he needs players

    I've long been an advocate of dropping Marshall for Jak. More assured and vocal and the defence don't play as deep when Jak is in goal.

    It's also that bravado of 13 fit players. All players played with a willingness to prove the doubters wrong. We just don't see that same appetite on the pitch at the moment.

    apparently, Rowett had reservations about taking the City job.

    Forest turned down Marco Silva in the summer
    It turns out, Marco Silva was interviewed for the Nottingham Forest job in the summer, but didn't get it.

    I'd forfeit both cups for PL survival, this season anyway.

    I wouldn't.

    League Cup is a tad more permanent than '17th that season in the PL'.

    That's the way I see it too , I can't believe the lack of interest in the game next week , we once took 6000 to Anfield when we were 5-1 down , because that's what city fans did ,. Now people can't be arsed with a semi final

    The revenue from retained PL status is far better to help build and progress the club than anything a league cup win would do.

    No it wouldn't, it would be spunked on more new players and we'd be sat here in 12 months saying "I just wanna stay up this season, because the money next year will help move the club forward".
