    Not sure how today will affect City, if we had won well, it might have put some doubts in there, but we won and we are in the final. I think we might meet them again this season

    don’t care how it affects city, the only affect they’ll have on our season is if we meet them in the champions league final

    They'll have doubts because of our three goals and they know we eased off for theirs.

    They’re not playing us again though, so the 3 goals we scored is different to playing against lower opposition, which they are expected to win.

    For me it’s clear City want the CL most of all, it’s what the owners bought them for and they’ve been trying for years now without winning it. The league is their other joint top priority. That’s pretty obvious.

    Realistically I think we’ll end up with the two domestic cups at the most and fall short in the PL and CL.

    They'll be back to full power for Brighton.

    Playing fernandinho who simply couldn't match our running and silva as 6s cost them the game today.

    Playing grealish is kdb position absolutely killed them. Absolutely useless.

    Don't have to be playing us to start having doubts about how they play.:emoticon-0112-wonde Obviously it could come into play if we meet in CL final.Anything to start doubting themselves is good for us.

    Remember us beating arsenal 5-1 a few years back? We destroyed them first 25mins.

    The game today we look like we didn't really want to give city anything but then wound up giving them far too much.

    3 forwards countering and mane stands on ball and ends up back passing. That's what we need to cut out.

    3 goals and we won the game then sat off and left them in sloppily twice but fortunately too late to actually matter.

    In the cl final we need to put personal glory aside and go for jugular and make sure of every chance :bandit:

    If they scored their first goal later on we could have been in serious **** with the momentum.

    It's City, we beat them. That'll do for me.

    Fa cup final.

    Klopps record in semi finals is ludicrous really.

    Unbelievable

    Not sure if anyone has mentioned it but Thiago ran that game. He was sensational. I understand why Mane got mom and he deserves credit but for me it was Thiago.

    In fact our midfield was amazing.

    Didn't realise the final is before the end of the league season oddly.

    As for the game, Mane was great even ignoring his goals. Diaz is quality and Salah needs to be benched.

    City won't be phased. They have lost many times in the fa cup. The only thing odd about this season for them is they didn't win the league cup.

    1 point clear in the league.
    In cl sf.

    They won't panic here.

    The thing is though... they have to win them all in theory.

    If we draw 1 then they can but they cannot lose one.

    everything depends on whether KdB will be fit imo. He runs that team from the middle.
