"We've got a home tie, irrespective of who it's against.
"It's up to us to take the game to them.
"It'll be a great game for the supporters."
So expect 11 men behind the ball for the entire game with our 2 shots of the entire game coming in the final 5 minutes when we're chasing the game.

In all seriousness I hope we do try to take the game to Man City a little bit more than we would normally do and not just defend our way to a cup exit. We can still defend deep like we normally do but more pressing from the team when Man City have the ball in their defence and when we have the ball, pass it neatly and be as patient with it as we can. No trying to force it and giving the ball away with a cheap long ball into the channel.

Resting Hegazi and Barry for the weekend whilst giving McAuley and Yacob much needed game time and Chadli still out because he isn't yet ready to return.
