Hope Howe has the team watching that. That's how you do it. Don't play with fear or excuses, go for it and dream. That was us last year. 

Bit different away to City mind.

Really enjoyed it. Different teams not the usual. That focused vibe ab FA cup QF tends to have, drama, very neat stuff from Coventry.

 

Tyldsleys unfunny unwelcome craic a fly in the ointment

Hope Coventry come up.

 

Spent the Gyokeres money on Wright and Simms and they finally seem to both be clicking

We play with fear, nerves, and no confidence. Come in like that against Citeh and its a comfortable 2-0 to them with them not getting out of 2nd gear. Play with some belief and you might just unsettle them enough to get something. 

 

One thing is for certain, we give them too much respect like Arsenal & Chelsea away, and its going to be a cricket score.

Sorry, but this sounds like Paul Merson levels of basic, simplistic analysis. Sort of talk you hear down the pub (team).
 

There is no correlation between Coventry having a go away at Wolves in the cup and anything we do away at City this evening. I hardly think Howe is going to be using this match in his game plan.  

 

From what I’ve seen of Wolves recently against us, Fulham and Sheff Utd. They have looked wide open on the counter and susceptible to conceding a lot of

chances/goals. With a lot of their first teamers missing. 
 

City have looked vulnerable against the counter at times, on the diagonal especially. Like our game, when we got two goals from it. The only games I can remember where teams have gone toe to toe with them and outplayed them. Were Villa, when City were missing Rodri and Liverpool last weekend. Both away games for City. Nobody really manages to take the game to City at the Etihad. It’s a bit suicidal. Especially with our slow midfield and defence.  
 

Also, we played some of the most cautious stuff of the season at home to Wolves and won 3-0. Then tried being very aggressive away at Chelsea and got undone by 3 pieces of pathetic defending and individual and collective mistakes. Plenty of fans were questioning why we changed tact from

what worked so well against Wolves. 
 

We could play with plenty of belief, confidence and with the handbrake off and still get taken apart 4-0. Purely down to the fact they have better players and a better manager. 
 

Why not just enjoy a brilliant cupset. Instead of using it as some stick to

prematurely beat Howe and the players with?! :lol:

Great game and brilliant and fully merited for Cov. A final against the Sky Blues is still on!


Just re-watched the second half. What a fantastic performance. Particularly enjoyed watching Sa take about a minute over a drop kick knowing that extra minute meant Cov winning the game :lol:

Just saw that Brentford only have 10 points from their last 17 matches. 3W 1D 13L, and will be hard for them to come back today being a man down. That's awful form. Probably end up lucky that the bottom 2 are so far adrift, and Luton seem content on throwing away leads that they will end up being OK, but didn't think they were doing that badly.
