We'll win it, we'll get back our personal property and Wenger can walk away with his head held high as the most successful cup manager in history

Think we have two ways we can approach: possession football or man-to-man. Either way we need to keep City from having too much possession. Considering how bad we are at keeping the ball recently, I say we go for the man-to-man approach and try and hit them on the counter. City has a lot of threats but we can at least neutralize their threat in the final third by cutting off their supply.

We need to stick a player on Silva. Maybe Elneny; we also need to stick a player on De Bruyne. Coquelin or maybe Chamberlain. just need someone who can keep up with these two all game and get stuck in every time they receive the ball. Fullbacks will of course need to stick close to Sane and Sterling. This will allow three players to keep an eye on Aguero. Our forwards will be responsible for applying pressure and keeping the ball in their half.

We need high energy players playing. We can probably get away with one low energy player starting but if we start the same players we did against Middlesbrough then i can't see us winning this

Last time out, both manager's respective shitness canceled each other out.

Now, though, there can be no draws: who will out-shit the other?

I say Pep.

But there's no positives to gain from winning this game or the FA CUP. You just extend wenger & status quo life. Its a double negative to winning.

Better off loosing. Hopefully we get rocked and home the fans go nuts with the chants,


Don't know you know what if we lose this and spurs win the cup?

Maybe another 2 years of Wenger and Spurs not winning it is worth it
