I think it is a big game for Ange. As much as he struggles with any team away, he struggles with the likes of City and Woolwich at home, more so than other managers before him. I'm unconvinced he can actually beat Pep or Arteta until he does it. Failed 6 times already.
 
omf... Odobert and Son out... so...

I've got no clue whats it gonna be like

Maybe -

----------Vicario----------
Porro-Radu-VDV-Spence
----Sarr----Bentancur---
Johnson-Kulu--Madders
--------Solanke-----------

Udogie is awfully off it and overplayed. We have lack of wingers, so PLEASE play to have more control. Both Sarr and Benta should be reasonably fresh.
We have to have fight in us today. Can't go out with full limp-dick like against Palace.

I think we'll win this. I know Pep cant be trusted but i believe they will go weak tonight. They dont have the deepest squad anymore and he'll want the prem and CL again if he leaves. So we'll do ok, win, everyone gets carried away and then we wont beat Villa.
 
Big game for us. And don't let anyone fool you that it's not important for Citieh as well. No way they are letting a cup go..

Whoever start with our beautiful jersey on today, I wanna see some fight and passion. It matters for us, and it should matter for them as well!
 
I think Tottenham can do it!
A game at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium against City!
I still believe the first eleven wants to fight and take a big step towards the cup!
I also think they know about this serious game!
Hopefully I'll be home early enough to see the game.

COYS!

I like that - would think about a double pivot of Biss and Bentacur
 
Probably not the game for it but would like Ange to mix it up a bit. Have Udogie and Porro to go on the outside more as wing backs and play with two 10's would also play Gray as a 6 (a bit like Diers season where he would drop between the CBs when we were in possession to reduce the counter threat)

Out of possession
[LINEUP]Vicario
Porro Romero VDV udogie
Bentancur gray Bissouma
Kulu Solanke maddison[/LINEUP]

In possession

Whilst usually positive I am very lacklustre about tonight. Whilst the league cup is seen as the easiest trophy to win, if you consider the teams still left in it, we would not survive an away draw in the next round should we beat Man City tonight:

Chelsea
Liverpool
Woolwich
Man City
Aston Villa
Brighton
Man U (under new manager)
Newcastle
Palace

I think our entire season hinges on the Europa League.
That's a shame because we have no chance of winning The Europa League. We will go out to the first decent team we face.
