FA Cup Distraction

Paul Lambert this week saying how top flight clubs could 'do without' FA Cup distraction. I for one, think he's talking garbage.

Got Wigan into Europe last year, not to mention rich history and memories. Rideout banging in that header in 95, sending Utd out on penalties a few years back... Would never see Everton forfeit a place in the competition, even if it meant more focus on the league

What do you think blues?
 
I'd love to win that again! It's a prestigous prize indeed plus I don't think any manager has won it with two different clubs, Roberto.......???
 
Full strength team and try and win every tie like you would a PL fixture.

If Martinez is preserving half a team against QPR we'll end up out of the cup....and he'd get no support from me if he was attacked for it.

Well, I'd say you've got nothing to worry about based on his performance in the cup last season, wouldn't you?
 
You want the FA Cup to be magical again? Take away 4th place and give it to the FA Cup winner instead. Now every club will want a piece of it.

I agree - it's a whole week before we play Norwich at home. Unless there are existing injury worries (nobody should be taking a fitness test for this game - unless in centre midfield!!) we should be playing full strength.

Lambert is talking through his asshole.

Hopefully with Ferguson's retirement, the revelations threatening to break around the sainted Malky Mackay and the way Moyes is crashing and burning at OT, the fashion for dour, Jock managers like those three plus Lambert, Big Eck and Owen Coyle etc. is fast coming to an end.
 
And we're practically playing a premier league side....certainly a premier league manager. People like Barton will be well up for it.

What revelations?
 
roberto went all out for the fa cup last season then got relegated,now with everton only needing say 8 pts to secure survival will he go all out again for the fa cup as he always states the great tradition of our past glories with kendal and royle and wants us to win trophies.I hope we win on saturday and then go all out to strengthen the squad and finish as high as possible as well as the cup.
