    Well, here we are again. Yet another semi final draw that we are in. Two legged affair. So, who do you fancy in the semi final?

    Based on recent history I’d figure our best chance of getting to the final would be to play Spurs but I’d rather take them on in the actual final itself.

    Playing Spurs in the final would mean Man U were out and as much as I would love it to beat Liverpool they have in the main in my short life had a curse on us and I do fancy us to beat Arsenal over two legs if we play with ‘intensity’ and have a modicum of luck which most teams need to get to a final.

    What about you lot?

    It’s concerning that Liverpool have a new manager. Manu have a new manager. Spurs are spurs so not a concern.

    Arsenal just get results.

    I would say spurs. Especially as Madison is now going to be suspended. However...I sort of think that 2 legs gives us a better chance of beating Liverpool Vs a single game in a final. I'd fancy us against spurs either way.

    Don't care who we get. We can beat any of them.

    None of the teams left will want to play us.

    Feel like the only one we could maybe beat in the final is Spurs.

    Quite something to regularly be semi finalists.

    Agree that. Didn't really matter who we got but 2nd leg at home is better

    Just pleased we are home second leg. If we can go to the Emirates and keep it tight and get back to SJP that’ll give us a decent chance.

    Just don't get battered in the first leg.

    Eddie needs to go defensive in that game.
