If we have Son, Kane and Bale anything is possible. No way we would have done that under Jose but very hopeful we do it with Mason. They key is to be composed with our chances and be clinical.

The dream is there today but my concern is so often it doesn't happen. Time and time again the rich powerful clubs like City win these finals. The sad thing is it wont mean a lot to them if they win either.

Don't care what fans other clubs say.

All fans would want to be playing in a final today and as it's something to enjoy.

I'd like to think the players would be desperate for this trophy today, whereas maybe for city it's not so much.

For some it could be their last chance of anything while at spurs, for others it could be a day of redemption and others an iconic moment for them.

Whatever the result today, I hope the players can go out and show that football is about more than just money, tv revenue and global audiences. Show some passion, determination and enjoy playing the game.

The scenes when Nielsen scored and I was at the press box at Wembley faking to be a broadcast journalist and thus unable to express my feelings. Wearing a brand new Spurs jersey under my very professional jacket.

We do seem to be their bogey side in recent years, but I also know they can absolutely batter us if they are in top gear. We have actually beaten them a few times without Kane as well. It's not out of the question.

I see it as a free hit. Nothing to lose. City are expected to win this, we have been in poor form up until Wednesday and have a very young temporary manager.

I just want us to have a go, win or lose. Don't lose with a wimper, that's all I ask.

This is spot on, no one expects us to win, but we do expect the players to have a go and not just roll over for them

Any trophy win is important it's just that as a club the players and fans in general don't believe in it enough which is part of our downfall.
If we can get this one over the line who knows where it can do for the club especially in a week like we have just endured.

Not going to lie, I think we'll get taken apart by City - but If there is any team that can beat them, I feel it is us & if we win, they'll likely have 30 shots and we'll have 3 or 4, that's how games against City go for us when we win. If we can rediscover some confidence & fight then we have a chance - that is what my heart says, my head says something different though :(
