Downsouth 6,328 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Lowest ranking team left at home in the next round that is available (ok Millwall second choice). Have a London and Manchester derby or combination thereof in the draw and I will be very happy. Link to post Share on other sites

Will 2,958 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Home to Millwall. Man Utd or Blackburn v Lincoln Huddersfield or Man City v Chelsea ***nal or Sutton v Tottenham or Fulham That'd do me nicely, Lincoln get the payday the deserve if it's Man U or a genuine chance to progress again if it's Blackburn.

wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 Playing Lincoln or Millwall would be just as difficult as playing against one of the big boys. It looks straightforward on paper but just look at what happened yesterday vs Oxford. Bring it on whoever it is. No it wouldn't. Indeed, what a strange thing to say. Mentioned yesterday, both Lincoln and Oxford showed real heart but in all honesty, didn't have a great deal of quality. It was a great scalp for Lincoln and they deserved it for the work they put in, as well as having to deal with Barton, but Burnley were the better side and for the most part, so were we. Something Ranieri said yesterday was true: When a team from League One beats the champions we say why and have to react as soon as possible. We are better than Millwall, but Millwall deserved to win. That's it at the end of the day. We are better than Oxford, Burnley are better than Lincoln, Leicester are better than Millwall. When either of us lose against those respective teams, we would have to ask why. Strangely enough, despite it being Ranieri who made that statement, I thought in his case it was the most obvious reason as to why they failed out of Leicester and Burnley. They played a team of players that didn't really make sense, they had some players out of position, they had Okazaki up front as a lone striker... some bizarre team selection for an FA Cup 5th Round game. They really are pinning all their hopes on the Champions League and, having been so long since they last played in that competition, it's going to be very interesting to see how they do against Sevilla. I didn't watch the Burnley game so I can't personally comment on it, however you are one of the only people who I've seen saying that Burnley played well. That's not what I said there mate, I said they were the better side and they were. The first 15-20 minutes though, yes, Burnley played well. Before Gudmondsson(sp?) had to go off with an injury, they were very much on top and passing it around really nicely, and not our kind of passing it around. It was positive, the ball was going forward and getting attacking players involved. Link to post Share on other sites

That would be the perfect draw for us. Although if we avoid Spurs and Chelsea, I'd back us to get to the Arch. Link to post Share on other sites

wilsoncgp 9,283 Posted February 19, 2017 Share Posted February 19, 2017 I'd rather Spurs play Chelsea and City play ***nal. Spurs and Chelsea are the best two sides left in the competition. Pit them against each other, get shot of one of those teams from the competition sooner rather than later, would do everyone a massive favour. Link to post Share on other sites
