Plus easy draws aren't always..gone out to 'easy' teams before

[petre.ispirescu 4,928]

Arsenal with yet another easy draw at home. Who would have thought...

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Weirdly confident about Man City at home. Let's beat those Mancs and go on to lift the cup!

COME ON YOU BLUES!!

[Barbara 15,149]

I'm also confident... don't know why but I'm confident, no matter who we play.

If only we had drawn Arsenal though...

This is why first time I heard it was now called the Emirates Cup, I thought it was a joke.

PSG and City in one week.. smh

[Jase 43,479]

Wonder where the priorities would be for City...

P.S. Doubt we'll be playing City on the 19th, which happens to be a Friday. Likely to be on Saturday, I'd imagine, with City having that trip to Ukraine.

I'll take anyone at the Bridge.

As Ledgi said 2 arab money clubs, 2 other shade of blue clubs against our boys.

[Cosmin 2,484]

They don't want us to win the FA Cup. So what we're gonna do? We're gonna make sure that we win it. 

[Tautvix 1,321]

Maybe anyone has stats about Arsenal fa cup draws in the last few years or something? because they always seem to play at home vs lower league teams.

[Ledg 643]

On bluemoon there was a guy who said they played only 2 away games in the previous 3 years in the competition. 

[Jase 43,479]

Gullit was in shocking form during the draw really. Gave us City, handed United the Shrewsbury game, gave Arsenal a home tie against Hull City. Piss off!

[robsblubot 3,595]

The only, and perhaps subtle, source of confidence must be focus. We will be the only big club with 100% focus on this cup while others are certainly aiming higher... not a warm feeling mind you, but real.

City have a much superior team at the moment. Not even sure using their starting XI is a good or bad thing: first team players might be a bit tired, while their quality subs may be pretty hungry.

But I wanted 'Strawberry'!
