BioHazard 10 Posted February 18, 2016 Share Posted February 18, 2016 I fancy us strongly against City. They haven't been performing great recently, and if they roll out some of the youngsters to boot then we should put them away no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,918 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 I'd rather Man City play their real team than play their kids as is being suggested. Imagine if we lose to the pier youth team whilst we're playing our best XI... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xPetrCechx 13,571 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Guus says John Terry will not be fit for this weekend's game. #CFC Guus adds JT has been working with the physios out on the pitch but he still has too many problems to play this Sunday. #CFC Guus hopes to have JT back for next weekend but he isn't certain yet and doesn't want to take any risks. #CFC Guus says that while the absence of JT is a loss, he has complete confidence in his replacements as proven by the performance in Paris. #CFC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Hiddink says Falcao is the only other absentee for this weekend's game. #CFC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guus: 'Hazard was in a difficult situation but he has to step up. We have had some small talks. I hope he will do it soon.' #CFC Guus says he has seen signs of Hazard at his best in recent weeks but he wants him to do it on a more consistent basis. #CFC Guus says Hazard is very keen to be here, he has recently extended his contract and his family are also happy here. #CFC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guus says it is important all the players continue to take responsibility for their own individual performances. #CFC Guus: 'I will make hardly any changes because we take the FA Cup very seriously.' #CFC Guus says the history of the FA Cup must continue to be respected and we should not just think about the big clubs' concerns. #CFC Guus says Man City were a bit unlucky in their last game and as a big team they are bound to react after two straight defeats. #CFC Guus: 'Winning the FA Cup is a prestigious prize in England but also worldwide.' #CFC Guus says it is not necessarily an advantage to us if Man City field some younger players. #CFC Guus uses the example of our own Bertrand Traore as someone who has made the most of his time on the pitch recently. #CFC ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guus on Baba Rahman: 'He's a gifted player, tactically good and very calm going forward. He has to focus on his tracking back.' #CFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's forever remarkable.' #CFC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The bantz has nothing to do with it. I just don't trust our team at the moment and wouldn't put it past them embarrassing themselves against City's B team.

xPetrCechx 13,571 Posted February 19, 2016 Share Posted February 19, 2016 Matt Miazga, our recent arrival from New York Red Bulls, was involved with the first team on Tuesday. He was named on the bench for the first time, and Hiddink said he could potentially feature at the weekend. ‘Miazga is close,’ said the manager. ‘We are doing some tests but he should be fit. What will the weekend bring? It’s too early to say.’ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
