City vs Wigan FA Cup 1/8 final

Hank Scorpio

City loosing 1-2 with around 10 minutes left to play. Wigan beat City in last seasons FA cup final so would be crazy if they won here

ArnoldJRimmer

As much as I'd like to see it, cant see Wigan holding out. A much more entertaining game than I thought it would be though

lertsnim

How Wigan are not behind is a mystery. Be one amazing result if they can hold out.

Yep, if they fail to win it, they may as well give up.

He's talking about the Champions League.

Yes, yes, I know they're not out yet. But still, it's highly unlikely they'll win at the Nou Camp.

Bless; how sweet. Congrsatulations to Wigan for today's result. They saw their chance and took it. Pellegrini has some serious thinking to do now, especially when we go out of the CL on wednesday night.

Mr.Nice Guy

My goodness what a result that is. Never would have thought Wigan could upset them again. Arguably a more impressive feat beating them this season than last season considering last season Wigan had better players and were on neutral territory in that game. To go to one of the toughest grounds and win is outstanding.

City will be gutted because a domestic treble was very much on. As for Arsenal fans, they will be on cloud nine as they will rarely get this kind of opportunity to win a cup. They didn't do the business in the League Cup final with Birmingham but I think they will get a trophy this time.

Augmerson

Fair play to Wigan. Would be thrilled for them if they make it all the way and hold on to the cup for another season.

City will be disappointed, I expect them to go out all guns blazing against Barca.

I wouldnt be surprised if City knocked out barca.
Barca are not playing well. And Messi is not himself, something is wrong with him.

Lol Barca only need a draw. They can even afford to lose 1 - 0. I'm sure they can manage even without Messi.

Keep playing demichelis, keep losing....

I don't see the problem there myself.

Yeah I know a draw will do em, but I think city will win the match. City are 10/1 to go through, Ill put a sneaky 5er on it.

Any particular reason Yaya was taken off after 55 minutes other than tactical.

they're most likely going out of the champions league this week. Keep up.

I was really hoping City would get a replay and give them more games to play this year.

Look what Chelsea done at the Nou Camp playing with 10men for an hour.
Barca's blips in the league show they're aging a bit and not entirely sound at the back.

Completely different scenario for City i know and i'm not expecting them to pull it off, but i wouldn't be in shock if they did

A draw is more than they could manage against Valladolid on the weekend.

City just lost at home to Wigan.

Besides, I see Barca scoring so City will need to score 3 or 4. I just don't see it happening.
