PreMatch | Man City vs Liverpool | FA Cup Quarter Final | Saturday April 4th 12:45h

Like Galatasaray - third time’s the charm after they beat us twice this season?

A lot speaks against us here but I actually think the fact that this is an early kickoff right after the international break will make it a bit unpredictable.

Throw Arnes shit tactics out of the window. Have a go at them. High press high intensity and anything is possible.

In the weirdest way possible, due to expectations, this is the least amount of pressure ive felt ( for the club, not personally)going into a City game for years…over a decade at a guess.

…that come the end of the match, they’ll be a winner and a loser. The winner will go on to progress to the last 4 and the loser will be one step closer to sacking their manager.

It’s worth pointing out that this weekend is the biannual “fuckery with clocks” event, so the time will be 12:45 BST (GMT+1)

It’s business as usual for most of Europe, but worth noting if you live somewhere that keeps their timezone the same.

Sitting here wondering why the pre-match show hasn’t started. For fuck’s sake!

I blame daylight savings.

Well the French, I mean the Qatar, opponents of ours were awarded their deferral request by Ligue 1. I say we field the under 16 team for this.

PSGs match inbetween the two CL legs against us has been cancelled not the one before the first leg.

We can play our U16s in the PL against Fulham if you think that would help.

Or we do it the Liverpool way. Go for everything that’s left with everything we have left in the tank.

I have a feeling
We will beat these cheating fucks, we will raise our game and they won’t have an answer.
That simple.
I will say 2-0 to Liverpool on our way to an improbable cup double.
Yes, we will beat PSG over two legs as well.

I won’t watch this. These days, I tend to ignore these cheating bastards completely, even when they play against us.

One of 10 games we will play before the season ends, of which we will win 2, 3 at best.
This wont be one of them.

Many will be exhausted or on the verge of injury after returning from the Int’l break and having to play this early on Saturday.

Under the best circumstances we can’t get a result there. This is another reason I’m saying we should not respect this game and save our players’ legs for the PSG and PL matches.

Isn’t that true for the opposition too?

If only. We’re going to put men behind the ball and bomb it up to Gakpo on the counter. It won’t be pretty.

Yes … but sadly other teams seem to be trained
to a higher levels of fitness than Slots Reds.
The sooner we get our team back from Slot the better.

Who will cut inside and blunder into a dead end !

Now now, Slot will bring Rio on at 70 mins once we are 2-0 down and expect him to do something magical
