You'd probably be playing Chelsea, Man U or Arsenal in the Semi's though :P
And you won 4-2 last time, but we will see this time. I'd laugh if you play your full team and we played kids. If you beat them it's nothing to be proud of but I really hope either we both play kids or full team. Either way, will be a good game. If you do beat us then you'd probably play United which, well will also be a good game but I doubt you'd win that either.

Even if they do play Chelsea, United or Arsenal in the semis, Villa will be well up for winning the Carling Cup and I wouldn't at all be surprised if they got to the final.
You say it won't be anything to be proud of for City, but it looks like your already slightly talking up your chances of going through saying that Arsenal will "probably" be in the semi-finals. The way I see it, City will of beaten Arsenal twice before the half way point of the season, once against their first team and once against their second string if they win this match. It'll be an interesting tie, but I'm just saying they've already beaten you once - so Arsene will want revenge. He'll also (finally) want to get some silverware after a number of seasons without.
My predictions for the Quarters are as follows.
Blackburn Rovers vs Chelsea
Manchester United vs Tottenham Hotspur
Portsmouth vs Aston Villa
Manchester City vs Arsenal
If my predictions are correct, it'll be 4 very interesting semi-final matches.

Well as an Arsenal fan I wouldn't admit that City are defo going to go through but it depends on the teams played. If it's Citys first team against our youth then yes I'd say City would obviously be favourites but if it's both first teams, then I have to say that even though they beat us before I'm sure we can beat them if we are on form that day. If it's City's youth against our youth which I highly doubt it will be then I have to say we look favourites.
Oh and yeah I know Villa will be up for it but the poster said they have an easy trip to Wembley, and they might beat Portsmouth yeah but then they have to play probably: Chelsea, United and Arsenal/City, which is definently not easy :P But yeah I'm not writing Villa off at all but just saying it won't be easy as origionally posted.

yeah but it's all they have to play for so you never know. I fancy our chances in getting to the semis :D

No, they weren't. Your thinking of the FA Cup.

The semi finals are 2 legs, so both team's home ground.

they will fancy their chances of getting to wembly give the team a bit of a boost so they will be well up for it where as other teams may see it as the clowns cup.
