First up, comment on drawing Basel... 'Every one could be difficult but Basel is not too far away, so maybe it is a good option.' #CFC

Benitez: 'We know Basel have a great atmosphere in their stadium, so it will be interesting.' #CFC

Benitez: 'City did well against United the other day, it's a semi-final, massive competition, and we'll try our best.' #CFCWembley

Benitez: 'We try to manage our squad and selection. We have players with fresh legs so hopefully we'll be fine.' #CFCWembley

Benitez: 'Demba Ba was training today, and Ryan Bertrand. Romeu, Cahill and Cole will not be available.' #CFCWembley

Benitez: 'To be close to two finals, I am really pleased. The squad is doing well and getting better.' #CFCWembley

Benitez: 'It's important to be in a big game, and it will be even better if we win.' #CFCWembley

A 4231 will have us being dominated in the midfield...

Not necessarily. See Bayern vs Juve.

Like I said in the other thread, it's about attitude. If we go into this match looking to park the bus like we did in the league games, I don't fancy our chances at all. Need to take the game to them like we did with united.

What does this mean?

Considering when we had Mikel and Lampard there, they practically offered nothing to our attacking players in terms of possession and transition. Don't think Ramires in there would help at all

Hazard-------------------Mata

---------Oscar--Ramires----

---------------Mikel--------------

If we were to deploy a 4231, Luiz would suit better in the pivot for this one.

If luiz is in pivot,he will surely get a yellow card.He will miss next matches.I would prefer same team that played against manu and this time we should press city more.

We pressed United due to them playing so unoridnarly deep where the likes of Ramires and Mikel thrived against the likes of Carrick and Cleverly.

That will definitely not be the case against Yaya and Barry

in last few years, we've played Man City with our backs to the wall. We've lost almost every game at the Etihad and even lost at the Bridge in 2010. I don't know why but City just overpower us. Not looking forward to this

Hopefully we will beat them, but its gonna be tough. Probably the hardest opponent we could have in england, but if mata and hazard and cech are on top form, we can do it.

Absolutely, for me they are the best team in England when they are motivated.They have quality everywhere, the bench is strong, the experience is there, they have a good manager, not a top manager but a good one, and they have Yaya Toure. B)

They are favourite, for sure, they'll be more motivated than us, we'll still have plenty of objectives if we lose, their is to win the Cup.Even If i'm an optimistic person, I dont see us winning.
