Afternoon all. Big match for the Mancy's today. They will see this as a test of how far they have come and attempt to match our Mighty Heroes for effort.
Nonetheless, if we keep our heads and work hard, we shall overcome.
Madge is on her way by bus and tram, having broken out of HolyCustard's cupboard under the stairs.
Let's show them who are the big team here!
Up the Clarets!

Hm, whatever....
I guess we'll soon see if Dyche indeed has a masterplan or is just going to roll with it and focus on the league...

Madge arrived and changed.
Ready to fire us up, now we have the team news.
Long for Tarkowski, Westwood for Defour and Vokes replaces Arfield.

City
Bravo, Danilo, Otamendi, Stones, Zinchenko, Fernandinho, Gundogan, D Silva (c), Sane, Sterling, Aguero
SUBS | Ederson, Walker, Mangala, De Bruyne, Yaya Toure, Bernardo, Diaz
Pretty ******* strong !

Always a chance with Bravo in goal!
City have a job to pick a weaker team!

No Centre back on bench. .I.e Tarkowski. On the move?

Signing a new contract has no bearing on staying, should an offer come in. Could well be that we are saving him from being cuptied, or he would, for sure be on the bench.

Resting his broken hand for a tie of zero relevance to our seasons objectives?

I was thinking the same with Barnes being more of a inside forward rather than LM.. Might let Charlie Taylor bomb down on the overlap... We'll see.

City not taking any chances with that line up. Pep wanting to do the quadruple.

I'd be amazed to see Lowton left back and Taylor right.

I have a feeling Ben would have really pushed to play this game for some reason

maybe City should give 7600 tickets to all away teams - Emptihad looks reasonably full for a change

Theyre probably figuring they've got the league sewn up so going for the double.

Report in the print edition of The Times, Friday (bit not on on-line). My summary:
Tarks signs new contract, doubling pay to £30,000 per week. Dyche can't guarantee that this means Tarks will remain - other clubs can always pay more - interest shown by Chelsea and Arsenal.
Let's hope that he's had a reaction in his hand after L'pool game - and he will be back in the team at Crystal Palace...and the rest of the season... and many other seasons....

Almost a great ball by Westwood for Gudmundsson.
