Silva possibly crocked after just four minutes...big loss for City if he's out for any length of time

Goal by sterling clone

you're right he's properly crocked - Pellegrini might regret not playing a B team tonight

I don't think the squad Newcastle put out is too terrible. Good mix of starters/veterans and younger players. Not everyone is as lucky as City to have the luxury of playing a second team and name world class stars up and down the pitch!

Mangala looked good against us, but has looked anything but a £32m defender since then...now toure is down

Newcastle are giving it a go - a lot better than I thought they'd be.

Newcastle should have had a pen there, just like we should have had against United.

If City lose out here, only the Scouse stand in our way.

i'm trying not to even think like that - Newcastle can't possibly hold out for another 45 can they?

 

and there's still Southampton!

Given we found it hard to beat Shrewsbury, nothing is assured...we lost to Sunderland last year ffs

Southampton aren't going away. Their form continues.

Football is Football.

 

There's no doubt that only Liverpool remaining of the 'big clubs' gives us a significant advantage.

pessimist.....

I'm going to be concerned if we draw Southampton in the next round for the same reason. This is looking like less and less of a flash-in-the-pan with each passing week.

 

I have a lot of admiration for Southampton.

I hope Southampton keep it up. It would be great for them to get into europe, if not top 4 then top 6/7. 

i'd take a home draw against anybody

This is how I feel as well. But I would love it if man city get knocked out today

If Utd don't get something at city on sunday, i will be pissed off. man city are f**king abysmal at home this season. 

How on earth Mangala escaped a booking there is beyond me.

should that not have been a penalty? - looks like a "big club" decision from the ref there

That was a pen, clear as day. I swear the refs are getting worse. Both Manchester teams getting decisions go their way in just a few days.
