Disagree regarding your last comment. In many respects Sunderland have been City's bogey side over the last few seasons.

The runner up doesn't get a European place in this competition.As the final will be Citeh v xxxx you can pretty much guarantee European football regardless of the result which is why United want it so bad

Sunderland would give them a good game. Playing really good football under poyet (compared to what they were so their league position of 1 point from first seven games isn't giving a fair reflection) - I.e probably 10th in table if you pro rota poyet league form over season.
Beat them in the league 1-0 too. Must be the only game man city haven't scored in!

Why would Gus be interested in Buckley with Adam Johnson in such good form, Bridcutt is a different proposition. As I said yesterday who in their right mind would pay £5m for Catermole.

Not least because the away team in the second leg have 30 mins more than the other side to score one.

It's about relative values and the mad world of footy. AJ is a big money player but he blows hot and cold like Buckley - and on his day Buckley is prem league good. If Gus has already mentioned £1.75m that seems like a steal... Relatively like. And Lee Catermole's a good player, but Bridcutt is his equal if not better - and he'll prove it with the Mackems or us?

Oh ok, thought they would if City win and also get champions league
This City team would beat Sunderland on the wide and energy sapping Wembley pitch. Sunderland have beaten them at home about 4 years on the trot, but each time City outclassed them but got caught with a sucker punch. Lessons learnt, and the City squad just keeps getting better.
No doubt Poyet would set up not to get beat, so it could take awhile before the 10 man defence is breached.
Looks like ManUre heading there at the moment anyway.

Hope Sunderland get through.
One, because it's against Man U.
Two, because it will upset the people STILL grizzling about Gus.

strong and stable with me, or...
Yes they do given it's pretty much assured City will be in the Champions League. Runner up in this cup will go into an early qualifying round in late July.

I know I 'dissed' him earlier but Smalling has had a brilliant game tonight.
Also, Gus has a snood with 'GP' on it

Is that the Royal 'we'? Or just those still grizzling about Gus?
