City away to The Terriers

[KunDB]

Bravo, Zabaleta (C), Stones, Otamendi, Kolarov, Fernando, Delph, Fernandinho, Nolito, Aguero, Navas

Caballero, Sagna, Sterling, De Bruyne, Sane, Iheanacho, A Garcia

Strong starting 11

C'mon City

[KunDB]

Non League Lincoln first team into quarter-finals.

[KunDB]

Wonder how much Joey bet on a Lincoln win. lol

[gavin]

Lacking creativity in the midfield with both Silva and De Bruyne not playing. Hopefully the experienced wingers who haven't played so much recently will prove their worth and create for Sergio. Come on City.

Good on Lincoln.

[gavin]

Poor start. We've created a few chances and perhaps should have scored but it has not been inspiring stuff and they have looked dangerous on occasions too.

[Victoria]

What a load of crap! 2 second string teams, I should have Known better and spent my money on something else😭

[KunDB]

The quality is just not there. A bit disjointed as well as a result of the changes and Aguero nowhere near his best.

[Ludo]

Nolito, Delph, Fernando and Navas....

....shit.

[Moz1959]

Nolito, Delph, Fernando and Navas....

....shit.

No doubt one of them will score the first goal now. 

[KunDB]

Well Ludo will like those subs.

[Ludo]

We'd need another 6 subs

[Ludo]

Too many players worried about not injuring themselves before Tuesday

[gavin]

Not looked like scoring late on. Disappointing indeed.

[Ludo]

Uninspiring

[Neil Mcnab]

Nolito, Delph, Fernando and Navas....

....shit.

Probably, but how many players can turn it on after gathering splinters for weeks or months. Will all move on in the summer, except possibly Nolito. Aguero is taking time to find his feet as well.

Huddersfield never stopped running, for the 93 minutes. If you had no stake in the game, must have been difficult to watch. Poor on quality or outstanding moments.

Besides the passing it about in our own third, the defense did not look troubled.

[Ludo]

If our second string players can't step it up against Huddersfield then God help us if there's a spate of injuries in the league run in.

[goat]

Too many players worried about not injuring themselves before Tuesday

why, is that the day delph does his big shop?

not sure hes got much else to do on tuesday

[Ludo]

I was thinking more of Aguero along with de Bruyne and Sane when they came on.

[goat]

ahh

[Rowley Birkin QC]

Oh well, at least we get a home tie now.

[KunDB]

Home tie yes and I am assuming the players will lose out on the Dubai break they could have had if they had won this game and did not have the replay.

[gavin]

They're going to Abu Dhabi anyway and will okay the replay on return

[Victoria]

The only plus from this game is that Bravo saved a shot on goal.........lol

[KunDB]

They're going to Abu Dhabi anyway and will okay the replay on return

We play Monaco Wednesday 22nd then replay 28th. Fly out 23rd presumably returning when? How many days to prepare 1 just like last year when we lost to Middlesbrough 2 0. Not a good idea in my opinion.

Monaco is Tuesday 21st, supposedly back on Saturday 25th.

You know I had thought that then checked with the OS which says: UEFA Champions League Wed, 22 Feb 2017 02:45:00 GMT.

Surely someone at the club needs a good kick up the khyber as this is not the first time they have advertised games with the wrong date.

[gavin]

Never rely on the OS for fixture dates.

I've been thinking about yesterday and two experienced Spanish international wingers should really have done a whole lot better against a weakened Huddersfield defence. I hope those guys are reflecting on their performances.
