Who do you want?

Aston Villa
Blackburn
Arsenal
Man Utd
Chelsea
Pompey
Man City

Home draw to Pompey or Blackburn would be my preference.

Is it better to play the likes of United or Arsenal earlier though and knock out a potential winner before the final? Fergie and Wenger would probably play a few more first teamers in the final than in the quarter.

Personally I'd like to avoid City and Chelsea, are we better to play them earlier though?

Wouldnt mind villa, blackburn, arsenal, pompey or united home or away.

Ones to avoid def chelski and city even at home. They are putting out stringer teams than the rest.

If Arsenal play their kids like they did tonight I'd fancy us to beat them, yeah there was loads of nice passing and stuff from them but they left gaps at the back. Torres would've run amok tonight.

Chelsea's reserves are good enough to beat any other Prem team so would like to avoid them.

City had a strong team out tonight as well - they're a danger as are Man Utd, even though they played a weakened side too.

Anyone else we could give a good game.

Pompey at home, ta. Let the rest of the bastards knock each other out. City v Chelsea and Arse v United would be splendid.

We'll have the winners of Villa v Blackburn in the semi and then take our chance with whoever's battled through out of the rest.

Simples.

as said by most, i would rather avoid Arsenal away, city home or away(they are throwing everything at winning a cup this season) utd away or chelsea home/away,
pompey away would be nice then followed up by smashing the goons at ours in the next round for me.

Man Utd in the quarter final.
Chelsea in the semi final.
Arsenal in the final.

Let's do it in style, eh?

2 legged semi final. Guess we could smash them at theirs as well then!

I think Pompey would like to get us at their place, they almost done us in the league and i reckon they would fancy there chances, given a second chance!

I'd be surprised if we get Ar5ena1, unless we both progress and then it'll be a cert we'll get them in the semis.

If we get drawn at home, I'd expect us to get Man Utd, Chelsea or Man City.

If we get drawn away I'd expect it would be against Villa, Blackburn or Pompey, obviously, as I've mentioned everyone else.
