Fantastic finish that

Another player I liked as he played with flair and a smile on his face. I bet Chelsea fans would give their arm for him in the current team

In the FA cup nothing is guaranteed but assuming we win tomorrow that's the worse possible draw for the Arse

Edit
Talking about no guarantees. Stevenage
No shock for the Wallets, the Chavs are ****ers though.

Yeah you've got to get past Oxford first..

We looked better in patches against wolves, but still a way off where we should be. Trent's assist for Nunez' goal was a bit of class.

Listening to the city v Chelsea game on the radio, it sounded like Chelsea were even worse than us!

Trent's ball to Nunez was class
Chelsea are in freefall out the FA Cup 10th in the Premier league
I think its just a matter of time before Graham Potter loses his job
The team I was most disappointed by last weekend was Newcastle they haven't won anything for years they should have had a good go at winning the FA Cup
The Geordies would of made Eddie Howe King of the North East

Wrong tactics Chelsea but my, we're City good, class act both in defence and attack, at times 8 men behind the ball, next thing they break and score, take some beating sadly!

Mahrez and Alverez were brilliant

Do you think the geordies are happy to put all their eggs in the 'top 4' basket? Attracting elite players is far easier when you're in the champions league... no matter how much money you have.

True Mal the qualification of Champions league will attract more quality signings but surely winning a major trophy for the 1st time in 54 years is what the fans and the new owners would have wanted.
The club have moved on so far since the days of Mike Ashley as owner and Steve Bruce as manager

Im not sure what howe was thinking with his team selection. In my personal opinion you should always play your strongest squad. I personally dont think we will finish top 4 as the depth of our squad isnt good enough. Im amazed we are were we are when we had so many key players injured ie maxi, trips, wilson for so many wks. We need to add a few more in this window. I think you will see a much stronger squad tonight against leicester.

Enough of all that. On to more important things.
I didn't like Arsenal's white kit last night, no names on the back and the numbers hard to see
It's not even listed
I blame the kit for the first half performance

Yes I heard the supporters couldn't get in until half time. They arrived in one of the segregated areas but didn't have the required documentation to cross the road. So they had to go back out, take the ring road around Oxford and approach from a northerly direction adding 50 miles to the journey, then they got stuck in the traffic and polluted the area.
No chance of a train, they were on strike,

WTF has happened to the hubcappers

Well done Manure

Whatever the result I'll be here tomorrow but will the Lesser Spotted Spuds?
No doubt they'll be back if it goes their way otherwise, I hope not because this place is better without them
