Tbh, just them being in the competition puts a dampener on it. Can't see how they won't win it sadly.

They have only won two FA cups in the last 12 seasons if that helps.  Just twice in Guardiola's seven seasons aswell.

Yes but they are the height of their illegal gains paying off, hence why they are treble holders.

Draw dictates the replay selection for me, a good draw and you go full strength, if we get city away then is what it is 

Logical but also I’m not sure it’s possible. We have a good 13/14 players at the moment. Team will largely pick itself

W/C 5th Feb, Actual Time/Date still TBC. 

Likely Wednesday as they play on the Sunday prior

As @Kingman wrote, it's destined to be Wednesday 7th February.

We have games on the Saturday before and Sunday afterward but as Chelsea play on the Sunday before, that probably rules out Tuesday 6th.

I think Wednesday 7th would suit us well. 4 days after Sheffield Utd away and 4 days before manu at home. There seems to be exponentially more recovery/fitness issues with a 3 and 2 (usually only at Christmas) day gap.

Draw has been moved to halftime in the Liverpool - Norwich match.

Thanks, wondered why it hadn't been on.

I'd give Tim a run out if we get a near impossible 5th round draw.

People keep saying he can do this and that, let's see it v a team of Chelsea's calibre. Same for Duran if he's still around. If we sign Rogers would also be a good one given he scored v them last week.

Hopefully they don't mess us about and put this on the Thursday. We have Man. United 3-4 days later so as it stands in the season that is the far more important game for us where we need to put out a full strength team.
