I carefully studied the Man City defence against Chelsea and thought I would list any weaknesses we could exploit in the final.
Here’s what I found:

My Grandad passed away a few weeks ago, so it’s going to be a very emotional weekend. One of the last conversations my dad had with him, he predicted Coventry to win 2-1.. so here’s hoping we have an angel in the sky watching over us on Sunday 🩵

Just saw this. My old man a day died a few days after we beat Middlesborough in the play offs. We were supposed to go Wembley together. Yes I cried when Hamer scored at Wembley

Morning all. Been looking after 2 pups going hammer and tongs since 5:45, so I’m annoyed already. Unfortunately not talking about boobs.

Safe trip, let’s give them a game. Have a good one. Block 130 massive.

Final preps now, a brew, some breakfast, get petrol and go to Rugby for the others then off to Watford. Tube into Wembley Park then let the fun commence. PUSB

Although I still don’t see us winning, we will never get a better chance of beating Man Utd as pretty much their entire defence is missing

Yup. Maguire is carrying an injury too so is only half fit.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him come off and end up with Casemiro and McTominay at CH.

No fit left backs either so we have a right back there.

Mount and Amrabat somehow injured too. Mount AGAIN.

Options limited.

Enjoy the game and let's hope it's a cracker.

Just looking back at the photos I took when we won the checkatrade trophy, hard to believe how far we have come since then. Who would have thought then that our next cup game at Wembley would be an FA cup semi final against one of the biggest football clubs in the world and that we may have (even though small) a chance of winning it. Its what dreams are made of, enjoy the day everyone we all deserve this after sticking together through the rubbish years we have experienced. PUSB

Well, I can’t be there today, unfortunately, for a whole host of reasons that I won’t go into. One of them is financial, the other is health-related, but I’ll be with those who’re going in spirit.

Lift the roof off Wembley, and give the lads all you’ve got, as the SBA is akin to having a 12th man on the pitch when it’s in full voice. 👏

Prediction-wise, I have a sneaky suspicion this may go to extra time: either 0-0 or 1-1, and I think we have that longevity and ability to pull a goal out of thin air, to win it in extra time.

1-0 or 2-1 to us, AET.

Come on you Sky Blues. ⚽️🙏🏻

Like you I couldn't go today for a whole host of reasons but I have travelled down to Cov to watch the game with family and friends. Fancy us to win it in extra time too 🤘🙏

Yeah, feel for you. I am still recovering from two operations, so can't be there today either.

Box of popcorn and a VIP seat on the sofa for me. 🤪

In my seat and just waiting now, sat in the gods today and it really is a spectacular stadium from up top.

Thought I’d feel a bit weird after the playoff final last year, but nothing of the sort.

Come on boys! Just do us proud today, that’s all we can ask for 🙏

Good day so far.

Went to order a gin tonic in Las Iguanas and they informed me it was buy one get one free. Ordered six.

Also had a good chat with a High Wycombe based Wasps supporting Manchester United fan on the tube. Gave him a good education on their antics and I think he'll steer clear of any revival now.

Just need a win, my bet to come in (us to win and Tavares to score any time) and a threesome with Natalie Portman & Margot Robbie, and it'll be a solid day all round.

Won't have a better chance to beat united than today. A team that is inconsistent at best anyway and also incredibly depleted by injury. Bench looks very weak, the longer we hold on the more likely we will win.
