Rockin' good news. Will score from a header. (smiley whistling ting)

[iceboy 992]

I'm going to miss this match

[Sheva. 5,373]

Willian and Oscar should start with Salah or Schurrle. Eden on the bench if needed.

[Kieran. 6,317]

Schwarzer

Azpi Ivan Terry Cole

Luiz Matic

Salah Willian Schurrle

Torres

[Shane 2,275]

Going to miss this too, fucking work!

I'd like to see

Schwazer

Azplicueta - Terry - Cahill - Cole

Matic - Luiz

Schurrle - Oscar - Salah

Ba

[duo11bluecl 207]

If Luiz is CB for this game we are sort of screwed. He is however needed at CDM and lol at people suggesting Salah...etc starting MOURINHO WILL PLAY THE STRONGEST TEAM POSSIBLE. Don't believe his bs when he said Terry and Cahill won't make it, you can tell they will.

Cech

Ivan Terry Cahill Dave

Matic Luiz Ramires

Willian Eto'o Hazard

Maybe Willian for Schurrle but that will be it.

As expected, see above.

As I said yesterday, this FA is not important at this time & I hope Jose is poised to rest players.

Do you actually believe that? it is called mind game...

Haha he is not going to throw a trophy away people, actually it is our best chance of a trophy along with BPL.

Don´t you believe it ?

[The_Flash 1,144]

Yes he may rest people but there is some good people sitting on the bench just waiting for a chance. If he wants to give it to them, ok, hope they do well.

[bluedrake55 1]

we may have some injury doubts but so do citeh. if luiz is deployed with matic in the mid and ramires is bulldozing his way around why wouldn't the result be the same but with us scoring more than one goal? some people have got to have more blind faith in JM because i didn't expect us to be top but we are.

[Magic Lamps 11,447]

If we win this match, they can as well hand us the trophy already, so it is worth a our efforts. The FA Cup is our best chance for a title as we had no problems against City this season. We could also pile more misery on City and crush their triple/double dreams thus deflating their spirit for the title run in. Go for it.

I heard Cahill but JT is fit again is still out injured so:

--------Cech-------

Azpi--JT--Luiz-Cole

------Matic-Lamps--

Salah-Oscar-Schürrle

----------Ba-----------

Hopefully City also only field a weakened side, if not, it will be a lot harder.

[mannyfreshh 164]

Wow, to beat city 3 times would be amazing.. To make the FA CUP final would be just super IMO. I love that tournament.

Mourinho's pre-match press conference will be at 1.30pm UK time today...

Samir Nasri could make a surprise return for Manchester City’s FA Cup fifth round encounter against Chelsea on Saturday after resuming training following a six-week knee injury.

...

With Sergio Agüero ruled out of the Barcelona first-leg and Fernandinho rated at 50-50 overcome a thigh injury in time for Tuesday’s game, Pellegrini is expected to rest Vincent Kompany, Yaya Touré and Álvaro Negredo against Chelsea.

[oxfordblues 299]

might be a makeshift defence sat don`t be surprised if Jose sends out a 2nd string team

[NiclasCFC 2,582]

Cahill and Terry out according to SSN, so Iva and Luiz at Cb with Cole at LB vs Navas...

This is going to be hard...
