Guardiola is a winner, I would imagine he wouldn't be too happy if the players eased off.

I can't remember what game it was but a few weeks ago, he had a stern word with Sterling on the pitch at the end of the game when he was showboating.

Sorry but city did the right thing....they played a full strength team, played their style football, simple as that ..
With all the wittering about clubs playing weakened teams and not taking the cup serious, then city play a full strength team and people still moan...well I'm sorry, but well done to Pep...

Agree with above, unfortunately this is just a brilliant team showing full respect to a much weaker team

The players will feel awful now but tbh they’ll probably be able to look back and laugh, and enjoy that they got this far, and be happy to be able to talk about playing against great players like silva and de bruyne

Have to agree with this.

Also worth considering......what a chance for City to have some competitive finishing practice for their forward players. Probably better than what they'd get in a training session. Why ease off when their strikers are getting shooting practice like that?

G.Jesus might get one chance in his next league game but be sharp and put it away after scoring 4 tonight.

The really bad news is that an away goal would not have counted double anyway.

The M6 traffic chaos was caused by a lorry stopped/caught full of yet more migrants.....it seems there is now panic to get into England before Brexit.


When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

If i were a Burton player, i would rather lose 9-0, than a patronising, let's take it easy on them 5-0. Pep and his team showed respect to the competition.

I suspect there's a bit of a nod and a wink being given by the French (and maybe Belgians) to the migrants, or rather turning a blind eye.


Through the door there came familiar laughter,
I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.
