Loved how whenever we won a freekick by the time the replays had ended City were somehow in our box hitting the post.

No, for Son. he is only playing on reputation recently. Lucas has a bigger impact than Son. With Lamela, Bale and Lucas, serviced by Ndombele we can upset the cart

You don’t take off one of your best player in a cup final you just don’t. No matter how poor he’s been. He’s still a danger in counter attacks, he’s double footed and can score from longshots,he’s clinical

We need more possession so he can touch the ball more instead of defending 98% of the time

Sonny has been awful, his touch and movement have all disappeared.. I’d still keep him on tho as he does love a goal against City. Him and Moura have to track their fullbacks, and I’d stick LoCelso on Fernandinho, try and strangle their possession.

Completely rode our luck. Need to change something now, Ndombele’s ability against the press would be a massive boost
They'll pass it around him and it'll be like he isn't there. However, if he has a purple patch and can burst past players like he sometimes does.........

US commentary absolutely slagging Spurs. And rightly so.

A humiliating display. We have no idea except to give the ball to City and watch them have fun with the ball.

Tanguy and Bale have to come on at some point for Lucas/Winks. Id take Winks off at half.

and I wouldn’t mind Lamela on for Lo Celso.

We have to go for it, we have to try to score. No way our defense will hold out for 45 + stoppage time if we just try to hold on. It’s a cup final, play to win

Going the way we thought it would except we aren't behind. That is the one positive to take from that half.

Made to to half time & despite the blatant gulf in class, we're still exactly where we were before kick-off.

It's 0-0 & we've still got just as much chance of winning as they have.

We've got genuine game changers that could be introduced at any point.

It isn't pretty, but it also isn't over.
