Let me hazard a guess, is this about getting Man City at home in the cup IF we beat Palace in the replay?
We are more than able to beat Man City at home especially as they will be without Aguero. it could have been worse, we could have drew them away. What better pre match team talk could Pulis give to get his players fired up than to remind them of Wembley, but I doubt he will! Would love to see us repeat the match from a few seasons ago in the FA Cup when we beat them 3-1!
The way the draw was going this afternoon I thought we would be left along with Chelsea, Man Utd until the last few. I would have preferred a home tie against a Championship side but at least we do not have to play Citeh away. We do have chance at home and a win would be sweet revenge for the Wembley defeat. One obstacle though... we have to beat Palace in the replay but the incentive must be there to do that now.
Citeh will have players away for Africa cup of nations aswell, so could be a good time to play them, as long as we beat Palace first of course.
Wow, IF yes IF we can overcome Palace at home, what a draw this is. We ARE more than capable of WINNING both games IMO. I only hope that T.P. thinks we can... Best 11 on the pitch vs Palace just go for it! Same vs Citeh IF we get past the re-play.
Think the lads will have to play a blinder to get past Citeh, but wouldn't it be poetic. Still one game at a time, lets get the Palace game out of the way first.
Dont want to be a neg head, but I would happily get dumped out of the cup if we could get 50-55 points by concentrating on the league.
Smither's Yep, me too mate.. that many pts? Could well see us at minimum above 10th, and the higher we finish the more money they pay out this season maybe higher. But, whilst we are in it, let's at least try and win it.
