The FA Cup affected Gameweek 34 swings into action with title challengers Manchester City facing a stern test at Carrow Road. The Dugout Discussion opens for what will surely be an eventful day, with one eye on the Premier League and one eye on the goings on at Wembley (and also perhaps Aintree). The team news from our early kick-off is in, and the line-ups are as follows…

Norwich XI: Ruddy, Martin, Ward, Ryan Bennett, Drury, Elliott Bennett, Howson, Johnson, Pilkington, Holt, Wilbraham

Man City XI: Hart, Zabaleta, Kompany, Lescott, Clichy, De Jong, Barry, Nasri, Tevez, Aguero, Silva

The Canaries name an unchanged side from their successful trip to White Hart Lane, and Pablo Zabaleta in for Micah Richards is City’s only alteration.

After the title race has either heated up or died down, we’ve got another three Premier League games to enjoy. The almost relegated Wolves take a trip to the Stadium of Light, fellow strugglers Blackburn travel to Swansea, and West Brom host QPR, another side looking to avoid the drop.

Follow all the action as it unfolds in our Dugout Discussion chatroom, which is open and can be accessed right here.

    I just looked up the scorers and team sheets for the Man city game. Everyone who is watching the game will be on about the great goals etc.
    My first thought was:
    I am delighted I transferred Surman out and got Sessegnon in.

      It should have been irrelevant really. United took their foot off the gas the other night against Wigan and left the door open for this. City are striding through it. I'm still confident but rather frustrated we have given them the platform to mount a challenge again after we had them on the ropes.
