Buzzing to be in another cup final. We will be underdogs but definitely in with a shout. City are human. can't say there's much positivity around the team at the moment but we have players capable of big moments which i think we will have to rely on as we can't expect to dominate the game. Chance for someone to become a hero and add another trophy to the cabinet - massive opportunity!

01jamham2 - what makes you think we have a shout we struggled badly against a championship team should have lost the game and would have if VAR did not intervene, i think we might get battered and it might be the biggest loss ever in a cup final. We are truly awful at the moment.

Thats the spirit!
I agree we haven't been good recently, but sometimes the underdog can have a good game. On form, I expect a city win - but anything can happen and there's a lot of talent in our squad.

I agree we were lucky dio and could have easily lost the game, but I think to say we struggled badly is a bit of an overstatement.
We controlled the game quite comfortably for 70 minutes and allowed them an easy goal from too much space. Their second goal came from a horrible deflection and their penalty was a controversial handball, given the appeals and lack of consistency from VAR from other games over the weekend.
I'm not trying to downplay the issues, but Coventry had huge momentum in the game through desire and had a great tactician in Mark Robins. We were naive to assume they would just roll over and accept defeat at 3-0 down, their previous game against Wolves is evidence they will fight to the last breath.

Dio, we were very good for 70 or so minutes Vs Coventry. We just broke down completely at the end. Saying we struggled and should have lost doesn't really paint the full picture now does it. Any other day we win by three or more goals. Anything can happen in the final. City are massive favourites and all pressure is on them.
