I never trusted Westham going into the business end of the season. I have been cheering Chelsea because I know that if it was Pool vs Hammers/Spurs/Everton/Villa for battle of 4th, Pool will come out fourth.

Big game today for Chelsea to win their PL game against City and go 5 points clear from Liverpool who will still have a game in hand.

That's all well and good. But today's game isn't a league match.

Funny interview from Brucey. He said he has never heard of any time added on for such a long time. I guess he forgot about his goal against Sheffield Wednesday?

The rotation of goalkeepers for cup games has become more common in recent years.

Chelsea have won 7 of their last 8 semi final ties ( only defeat to Man City 2013)

Man City have won 9 of their last 11 FA Cup semi finals ( defeats both to Arsenal 2017,2020)

A German has never led a Side to a FA Cup final and Pep is unbeaten against Tuchel (W3 D2)

96th minutes Brucey scored that winner in that Sheffield Wednesday match in 93 had a long delay with the official getting injured. Didn't watch that match today what was the reason for 9 minutes of injury time?

Tuchel and Pep walk out holding hands like they’re going a stroll along the beach

Awful camera work. Awful kit clash. Awful teams. Should make for a great game.

Want Chelsea to win (well want as in rather them, but would prefer both get DQ'd and tomorrows semi final becomes the final), so have put significant money on City to go through.

Was that offside, why didn’t they draw the line?

Too close to call for me, maybe that goal should have stood.
