One of those tits on talksport just said that Mata is good but Silva is just that bit special...BOLLOCKS! Mata has been head and shoulders above Silva this season.

Its not even worth mentioning.Mata has been 20 times better then silva hell i will even say that this season's mata is better then last season's silva.Tbh as good a player silva is i find him a bit over rated.

I don't think it's about the line-up we put out but rather the mentality of the team. If we go in there to park the bus like we did in both games in the league, our chances will be very low. We need to attack City, fight for the midfield, not just hand it to them.

Every game I have seen City lose this season, and particularly in the Champions League, the opposition have taken the game to them, pressed them hard and didn't allow them time and space on the ball. Three times we've played them this season and each time we have played on the back foot and have almost been afraid of them which is sad to watch.

Unfortunately, we are not suited to play at a high tempo and press high up the pitch, despite having the players for it.

It's strange though because the players have shown they can do it in spurts, especially when we're losing in a game or pushing for a win. For example the 2-2 draw at Old Trafford the players pressed and fought tooth and nail to claw their way back. Even the 3-2 defeat at the Bridge to Utd before the sending offs the players fought back from 2-0 and were all over them, we played some of our best football in that game. But against City they players just seem to be too cautious and give them way too much respect.

If there is any situation where having Benitez is a huge advantage, it will be this game.

Silva hoping to make Chelsea return

I hope so too, so Mata can outshine him again.

I had two tickets but unfortunately had to sell them on. I haven't been to a game since last years semi against Spurs. I'm gutted!

[ulsterchelsea 3,221]

Fsw will set us out the Exact same way he did the last time we played Citeh so its gonna come down to the players getting themselves up for this match,which shouldnt really be difficult. We were terrible last game so fingers crossed this time the cup will smile on us again. Wish Drogs was here for it
