FA CUP 2020-2021

Since Saturday I've had a feeling that we will finally figure out how to beat Man U in the final.

Nice to finally beat a big team in the cup and the fear factor seems to be fading among the squad.

Bournemouth at home next though please!

Winning the cup will be a big ask this year IMO. Leics, Manu, Man C all through. Poss Chelsea tonight too.

....it does look tough, Billy, but it’s funny how these things can work out. Be nice if the four you highlight are drawn together, but if we avoid City then I feel we have a chance against the others.

Sometimes your name is on it.

Ideally the mancs draw each other.

And if we progress in the QF we would avoid the winner of that tie.

We might get lucky for the QF draw, but that's about it.

I'd always think get to the final, and have a hit on the day against whatever opposition we face. At worst we'd have a punchers chance.

Im sure the 'hot balls' will be in place, the FA will want to separate the two Manchester teams as that would be their dream final

Yes I think you are right sadly. They'll probably have two ex-players doing the draw for good measure.

Need Man City to be beaten. Leicester i think could take them

 

[Mikey_Fitzgerald]

We're in the bag for the next round, but we'll have to play much better to have any hope of winning the thing

I think Utd could too. Earlier they are out the better chance we have.

Anytime we go far in a cup competition, all of the top teams do. When we go out early, the likes of Millwall, Watford, etc make it to the semis.

The balls don't need to be too hot - basic probability means they are highly unlikely to be drawn together

It was a big ask for Wigan mate, in it to win it.

not away? lol

Home or away to a better team or not, Everton should fear no one, but Everton strike fear into the fans with some of the performances that they can give, as well as the super performances they can have, still want sheff utd or bournemouth though lol, though Everton can make any game as hard as they want to
