I'd also prefer to go through in the europa. As much as I want to beat Brighton the thought of a city final is terrifying
Think we can squeeze a 1-0 win. They’re not a good side and as long as we’re solid and everyone performs ok we should have enough.
I think we can, in theory. But there's just something about Sevilla. They didn't deserve one goal the other night but we somehow scored two for them. We absolutely battered them in the past and went out too. So I have a feeling that no matter what we do, we'll struggle to get over the line. Hope I'm wrong
Still fancy us to win, surely they used up all their luck on Thursday, they couldn’t be that lucky again in the space of 7 days

Let's hope so.
Fully expecting the ball to go in for them off four consecutive deflections though for a 1-0 win. đ
Would be huge to get through this tie and exercise some demons.
It doesnt look good for Thursday with what we have got, but you never know. Of course the reward for winning that tie is probably a 2 legger against The Old Lady, of course...
And then there is Brighton...
Sheff U will knock City out in the semi final if we lose to Brighton.
We're capable, as we proved at OT. But I'm not optimistic, too tired, too many injuries, and they are a bogey team.
But I would really love to be wrong.
I'm thinking our team will look something like this
DDG
Awb Maguire Shaw Dalot
Casemiro
Antony Eriksen Fred Sancho
Martial
It wont be easy away from home but there's definitely enough in there to see off that Sevilla team, who were pretty hopeless for 80 odd minutes.
Bruno will be a big miss based on what we saw today though. Annoying because it was an outrageous decision to book him in the first leg.

Would be typical but can't see it. City will win by 4 or 5.
Id rather lose to Brighton in the semi than lose 6-0 to City in the final.

Whatever the result is in Seville it's going to be a tough night. Could even go to extra time and pens too lets not forget as there are no away goals anymore.
Brighton are favs now at Wembley. Our squad is like the walking dead.
If we play well in Seville I think we'll win and win quite comfortably too.
Brighton will be tough but they have injuries too.
I agree with those who don't want to think too much of facing City in a final but you have to be in it to win it. We'd be underdogs but we could still win it. Especially as a lot of our players we have left will be quite fresh by then!

Their game is first so at least we’ll know beforehand
If we go to extra time in Seville I wouldn't be overly hopeful against Brighton. Other than City they are probably the worst team you'd want to play right now when you're fatigued.
Oh well. Just hope we get through on Thursday and what will be will be at weekend.
we will win on Thursday. Shaw and Rashford will be back, and Eriksen has had a few games to get back into the groove now. Hopefully, Sabitzer is back too.

I think we can, in theory. But there's just something about Sevilla. They didn't deserve one goal the other night but we somehow scored two for them. We absolutely battered them in the past and went out too. So I have a feeling that no matter what we do, we'll struggle to get over the line. Hope I'm wrong
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The same happened when we played them in the Europa final several years ago. We should have been five up at half time then we made a couple of defensive errors and it was game over.

I remember that game well actually. I was out at Laverys watching it with my Liverpool supporting mate after work. I had Liverpool to win 3-1, Sturridge first scorer on as cheeky flutter. I got the score and first scorer correct but the result was the wrong way around
