***City v Dippers FA Cup Official Match Thread***

If Jimmy isn't number one next season, then he needs to leave.

He is far too talented a keeper to be a number two to anyone.

Agree. If Donna is staying next season, loan Trafford out for the season, see where we are summer after.

Can't be strengthening a rival

Glad to not read any real whinging or whining in this match thread - it made for a very pleasant match day experience

Maybe that’s something to do with the quality of the team selection & the subsequent performance

I am having a hard time picking an aspect of Gigi's game that's actually clearly better than Trafford's

[Bournemouthcityfan]

Great match pay Trafford more and give him some prem starts as well as the cups to keep him if we can. He must be the long term goalkeeper.
Don’t mind savinho coming on if were 4 up with 5 mins to go but otherwise I’d rather not see him .

I think some of the "quick" saves he makes - hes the best in the world. That save against the Rags at home, the one against Liverpool away - that aspect is probably just better than Trafford. But Trafford, weirdly as Donna is a big guy, dominates the box better, I think he's better at 1 on 1s - coming out quick.

It's a tough one but I can see Traff being here for the next ten years - I can't see that with Donnaruma

Jokes aside, I think that's one of the rare times playing against 'top' opponents that the team that was picked today was absolutely spot on.

Also, I felt ill watching Salah today, that was a shadow of the man. Really sad, like seeing an old horse running his last.

I think bad man management has made him go from hero to zero.

Anyway, who fucking cares.

I can’t express how little I give a fuck about that diving cheating cunt Salah

[Mase]

Liverpool have Salah and VVD - their two best players the last 6 years, that will be leaving next summer. Theyve literally carried the club, especially through Klopps era. Klopp doesn't have those two and they don't come near us. Theyve spent nearly £400m last summer and not replaced either.

I always have TBH.

[Pretty Boy Lee]

Fucking immense and the big man back with a hat trick. Couldn’t be a better outcome.

[Sparklehorse]

What a performance today. Massive. If I were to offer some criticism I just cannot believe how Savinho is either in the City squad and even less that he actually gets onto the pitch. He won a foul and lost possession every time he had the ball at the stage of the match when It was open, shockingly bad. Foden must buck up too, he gave possession away several times. We all know how good he can be so I’ll cut him some slack, but I shall do the dance of the seven veils if we sell Sav this summer. Brilliant today though.

Say something fucking nice about Khus and how he should be picked over lover boy Dias

Totally agree HDS

I’d even send the cunt to the glue factory

[Nick]

Dont suppose anyone can get hold of one for Chelsea?

[salford city]

Fuck off you murdering thieving twats. Love you City, this is what its all about on the piss with all these plastic scousers hiding their shirts

[Crossie]

Apparently Liverpool are having a summer rebuild…. What the fuck was last summer then?

Nice they are back where we want them.

It’s strange how Trafford has played his way into people’s hearts. Remember his first few games? Good against Wolves but then he was shaky and we had doubters on here. Donna was our best player for 6 months of the season. Strange. For me Donna is a better keeper and probably always will be.

Savinho, Pep raves about him & loves him in training, he must be showing something in training we just don’t see. It’s not unheard of is it though? Amazing in training and ineffective in the PL.
