Ooft, Anfield leg of the Liverpool City tie is followed by the Merserside and Manchester derbies

Make or break fortnight for the Psycho Klopper I reckon

Costa smashing the ball into his lovely face and it rebounding through Cech’s legs for the winner.

Absolutely. If City had a couple in the bag it’d automatically be a much bigger deal for supporters. Maybe when we win one it’ll change. Obviously the league title’s the bread and butter for any big club, but i’m not saying the European Cup couldn’t pip the FA Cup as the next best, so to speak, a worthwhile consolodation, just it’s not a part of the fabric of our club.

Another reason is you don’t enjoy the bragging rights because you’re competing largely against teams from other countries. This tie at least will involve some of that, but generally speaking who gives a shite if, say, City were to beat Barça in the semis - who am i ribbing at work or in the pub about that?

Ultimate japes would be if City field a complete second XI in the derby and still win it.

Think the best to hope for as a United fan is that you wrap the league up the weekend before so that we can send the stiffs out to give the guard of honour…

I went to the Basel game and watched City’s complete second XI. We would not win that game.

Were you at hockey practice on Tuesday night, pal?
