Which would you prefer, FA Cup win, or qualifying for champion's league.

For me, qualifying for champion's league. Only as i recognise not doing so, means you fall further behind (and I like to watch champion's league)

It's not even close, the only two competitions that matter are the league and champions league, end of, the fa cup still has a little bit of the old romance about it but the league cup is about as worth winning for the big clubs as the charity shield

Yes I would rather qualify for the Champions League and people do underestimate how great it is for the fans to have those big European nights. It's dismissed as merely a money making exercise and real fans would rather win things but I think real fans want to watch football, and they want to watch big games.

Of course I want to win the FA Cup as well but if it was a choice, top 4 all the way.

Has to be Champions League I'm afraid to say. At the same time I still love the FA Cup and all that goes with it and still wanna win it. Have done for as long as I can remember and it's annoying on one hand that a lot of teams field weakened teams for it, but exciting on the other one when the underdogs seize their chance against them.

Only if he puts The Shield as his 3 up front.

LOL. Can you imagine Vickie Guerrero on the touchline when a decision goes against Newcastle? Would love to see it happen.

This looks rather ominous with Man City unable to get the ball for the first 12 minutes.

0-0 would not be a disaster

No you are right but Man City need to press more in a higher tempo.

Yes. Though at worst, we will have hopefully aguero back for the return.

Ohh..surprise, Demichelis gives a penalty...and i didn't want him in the team :)

TBH 90% of defenders would have ended up bringing Messi down from the positions they were in.

Kompany played Messi onside.

On a positive note, Demichelis can't play the next game
