    Man City v Chelsea and Arsenal v Liverpool.... sounds like a fix to me.

    Worst draw possible. Which 2 players do we want injured for 8 weeks?

    Got to play a full strength line up. Golden chance to get to Wembley.

    Decent draw, IF we get through, two of Arsenal, Liverpool, Man City and Chelsea will be gone, and one of Sheffield Wednesday and Charlton will still be in it.

    Winnable, but a fairly rubbish tie. That said though, they'll be four 'weak' QFs for us to potentially face should we get through. So knock out Sunderland and get one of those four, and a trip to Wembley will be very close.

    Get ourselves a replay, beat them at our place.

    they will be too focused on League Cup so it's not as bad as I first thought

    How much "away to Sunderland" does one season need.

    Only good thing is top 4 draws. Sunderland are the team I least wanted to play.

    When there were four left I think I was pleased that we avoided Swansea and Everton. However, we have a terrible record against Sunderland in recent times but certainly a decent opportunity for both sides to progress.

    At least the draw reduces the list of possible winners. If we can make it through there can only be a maximum of three teams above us in the table left in the quarter finals.

    I wish they'd cut out all the talking before the draw. I couldn't give a **** what Troy Townsend thinks about the FA cup.

    Thought it was going our way, with the big clubs against each other. Could see it being Brighton or Charlton in my dreams. Another match for me to go to but we must finish them off this time.
