Just checking........Family commitments without internet access for the next 3 weeks starting on Monday is it?

7 clean sheets in the last 8 competitive games kinda puts us up there with the best form going...

... and we've won this cup twice and been in 3 finals and 4 semis in the last 20 years ... how you done in that time? ...

... just asking ... let's not even get into FA Cup or Prem titles in the same time span ... levels ... burned ... <laugh>

Well we're 2nd in form table and you're 3rd so should be a close game.....Not quite the bye into the next round you seem to think you will have.

6 clean sheets in last 8 and we've played Chelsea, Man Utd and Everton in that period.......Sorry we've played Chelsea and Man United in that period........**** God Damn it, we've played Chelsea last time out. <cheers>

Might just have been a bit tongue-in-cheek <whistle>

... but we've certainly clicked into gear and are capable of causing any team lots of problems ...

3 of our academy lads are starting to really shine ... which is very satisfying ... Harvey Barnes, Keirnan Dewsbury-Hall and Luke Thomas ... and some others also pushing ... the future is bright <cheers>

Mate ... since Wout Faes has settled in, I'd back us to get clean sheets against anyone ... him and Daniel Amartey have struck up a tremendous central defensive partnership ... <cheers>

I'll be honest, I'm stunned Rodgers has turned it around he has a 24 month best before date and I thought he was gone or you'd be screwed. So fair plays to him. Be interesting to see how you's manage Tielemans and Maddison if you are likely to sell them both. Tielemans obviously last chance saloon to get anything and Maddison probably last chance saloon to sell at premium......

All that being said your good form has come against

I like the look of Faes but every time I've seen Amartey he's looked a complete clown.

He's a good combatative defender but, needs guidance and direction... which Faes gives him ... was previously voted in AFCON team of the tournament as a central defender in years gone by ... Faes has rejuvenated his career ... also helps that Castagne is brilliant and has the understanding with Faes ..

Latest gossip is that Tielemans could now sign a contract extension... who knows? ...Maddison would cost crazy money in January... so we're optimistic that both will be here for the season ...

I'll be honest - I'd take the draw now if offered it, we looked a bit rusty the other night against Bournemouth but that's twice we've struggled to break them down. Teams that are shothousing it like we've done for years, we're really struggling to break down....teams that come at us we play better against.

We'll come at you ... Barnes, Vardy and Daka don't really do anything but <laugh>
 
City got a tough month. They play Chelsea twice then United and Spurs. Saints away slap bang in the middle. Ya never know Roy.


We're in the draw that'll do... was hoping yo avoid Leicester and throw them in front of one of the Manchester clubs , but if We're going to win something We're going to have to beat them all potentially

It's certainly your best chance of getting to a semi final in 3 decades.
