Basically, whether it’s the semi or final we’re gonna have to beat City.

Could be a lot worse. City home or away, Fulham or Brighton away.. I’ll take that!

Can't ask for better than a home game, but not much scope to rotate really.
Shouldn't really rotate too heavily in the quarters anyway, even a lower league side like Grimsby deserve respect.

Home tie and avoided City so have to take that. Fulham are a good side but we should be knocking them out ok.

What station was the draw on? Another home draw I'll take that but nothing will be easy against the much improved Fulham.

We desperately need to beat Betis in the first leg comfortably so we can rest players in the 2nd leg which is just before the quarter final

100%. Fulham are very solid team but we're better than them and should really get past them.

Easy city win. We dispatched Burnely with ease and kompany will roll over for his mentor Saint Pep

Hold your horses mate. Burnley are flying and are managed by one Vincent Kompany. There's a script to be written there...

Hopefully City get Brighton in the next round, because they're the only team that is going to stop them getting to the final. We would all rather play Brighton in the final.

Can’t complain - All homes draws which means baring a QF replay, We’ll never have to play away outside Wembley

I think if we'd drawn Sheffield United or Blackburn, we would've rotated too much and lost. Fulham at home will be difficult but one we really should be winning.

It's a last game before international break if I am not mistaken, so would be pointless to do that anyway.
Fair enough. Then, in the words of Van Gaal, we go for it

There were worse teams in the draw but can't complain about a home tie against Fulham for a place in the semis. Not ideal that it's a few days after our trip to Betis though.
