Had a quick look at blue moon and they seem more upset about the draw than us ?

Just seen on there the competition will eventually clash with the World Club Cup and they'd likely be forced to play a full team of kids in QFs if they get there as Liverpool did a few years back. Which means a) it's objectively not the best time to play them, but b) Pep might just be tempted to swerve it and play kids early doors anyway.

You play a weaker team vs Sheff Utd in the league then whack on full strength vs Man City 2nd team which potentially doubles our chance of winning the competition.

 

we showed in the friendlies that we can field two teams effectively.

I hate this defeatist attitude, City fans must be laughing their heads off looking at it on Twitter etc. We're at home, give them a good go and see what happens, we're not Mike Ashley's NUFC anymore. We can definitely win this game.

Bare in mind there's not a cat in hells chance we play our first team.
