🏆 The Emirates FA Cup - 2025/2026 soon

[Woodie]

Manchester City is going to win two to three trophies this season out of nothing, they were almost written off by everyone and now on the verge of winning three trophies already.

Besides seeing Manchester City competing in these top spots, let's not forget that these guys had at one point had a very bad patch of games that we all thought they would bottle all these, but they put their house in order just in good time and now now have something to play for..

Arsenal that was said to be on fire is even looking like they might go trophyless, the way things turned out for City was actually amazingly impressive despite their champions league fall out, they used all their energies to chase the local cups.
Most people thinking Chelsea will win Leeds might be shocked by the outcome of that game. Leeds are also in a good form and Chelsea has been shit. Chelsea might see it as their only opportunity of silverware but I’m not sure they’ll make it.

Arsenal always look good on the pitch but whatever happens in the end is a mystery, everything they have worked for ends up being a lemon   just hope they can bag the EPL this time around as its the closest thing for them.

I would really like to see Leeds get something here,,, they are safe in Premier League almost for sure, and if they win FA Cup they have a nice chance to play in Europe after a long time,,, Manchester City wow they found everyone easy to play against, so weird to be fighting Championship team in semifinal but that is the quality of England.

Let us see how things go,,, I have a feeling Pep will get a nice high.

Leeds has a strong track record heading into the semifinal match against Chelsea.
Wembley Stadium could make the atmosphere of the FA Cup semifinal between Chelsea and Leeds United quite different—by which I mean Leeds could be on the verge of a breakthrough, as Leeds United has a string of impressive results and strong performances over the past five consecutive matches they’ve played.
Chelsea cannot be overlooked; they’ve performed well every time they’ve played at Wembley Stadium, even though they’re currently facing some internal challenges.
I haven’t seen any strong indication that Chelsea is likely to be eliminated, and in my view, there’s still a good chance Pep will face them.

Heartbreak for Southampton but you are never safe with a single goal lead against Man City. It just shows the fight and belief that City have under Guardiola. They feel like they are never beaten.

A real shame for Southampton, a final with them against Leeds would have been great but it wasn’t meant to be.

Heart break for Chelsea or Leeds as well, they will be furious to see Southampton let Pep Guardiola into another finals this season, knowing fully well he has 70% chances of winning the FA cup. I am sure after seeing Southampton take the lead yesterday, they were just praying for City not to score, but not at this time of dominance. Nico scored a crucial goal that took Pep to another FA cup finals. City will be facing Chelsea or Leeds at Wembley.

Southampton showed battling qualities right from the first half, but City was too strong.I think Southampton's goal keeper deserves some credit, he was brilliant yesterday, he made great saves but it was not enough to take them to the finals. After Southampton's performance yesterday, I was no longer surprised how they eliminated Arsenal from their own competition, they never lose hope, they are very tough to play against.

Manchester City qualified to final round of FA Cup after crucial winning match against Southampton and right now waiting for the opponent team will face in the final between Chelsea or Leeds United. Actually both of club between Chelsea or Leeds United not really difficult team for Manchester City and I think the Citizen easily winning the FA Cup season 2025/26.
Chelsea had downtrend and inconsistent performance in domestic league loss 5 matches in a row and Leeds United as the middle standings team in Premier League not difficult defeating by Manchester City, actually I want to watch the final match of FA Cup 2025/26 Manchester City vs Chelsea indeed easily predictable The Citizen will be the winner.

I was not expecting Southampton to get to the finals, but I admire their fighting spirit to score city first and hold it for 3 minutes before the equalizer, I know Guardiola not to joke with such opportunities to going to the final.

Chelsea is having their way against Leeds United today and dominating by a goal from Enzo Fernandez, assisted by Pedro Neto. The first half was purely dominated by Chelsea, but the lead is not decisive yet. They show great promise to scale through to the finals but the second half is still there to validate their ambitions. I hope they can hold their ground against Leeds and stand a chance to battle the finals with the in form Manchester City.

Just started watching this match in the FA Cup with Chelsea against Leeds United and quite impressed with the way they have been playing since all the turmoil they have been through the last couple of weeks.
After firing their manager they are playing under a new one for this match who is their interim manager Callum McFairlane.

If Chelsea can keep this lead they got from a Enzo Fernandez goal earlier on in the first half, then I can see them making to the finals set for May 16th against Manchester City who had already won their semis match yesterday.

The Blues look really in control so far and that of Enzo finish was astonished and quality great performance if Leeds come out with more intensity after the break , Chelsea just need to stay focused and grab another goal to seal the game off. if they do, a potential clash with Manchester City would be a professional test of how far they have come.

Manchester City couldn't get a comfortable win honestly. Despite having a serious dominance Southampton were the one who scored first. If it weren't for such a quick answer Guardiola could have said goodbye to a trophy chance.

Chelsea are still leading 1-0 against Leeds right now. I can't say they are showing their best effort so Leeds could score anytime. No matter what I expect Manchester City to lift this trophy at the end...

Chelsea won the match 1-0 to make it to their first final of the season; they will face Manchester City in the final of the FA Cup and if the interim coach can use his squad well, he can actually make history because I can see some changes in the team’s performance today, they played far better than last match because they have been playing more than four games without winning a single match and these matches are not all against big teams, but today, they didn’t even concede a single goal and all the players were well organized to avoid any mistake that could lead to goal; the players are also very kin to at least win FA Cup since they know that the premier league is out of their hand and they will hardly make it to the Champions league through top five.

With the score I guess Chelsea will be the one to face Manchester city in the FA cup finals and I believe it will be very tough for them even though Chelsea is not in a good form. You know when you fight with someone for the first time and the person defeated you, next time when fighting with the person you will make sure to have a different strategy to fight the person though it may not work as Pep Guardiola is a coach that doesn't look at those things because he doesn't underestimate team, he will always make sure to deal with you without minding anything.

Quoting you to go and amend your post....

LEDs United exerted some but of control in the second half but we're unable to make something out of it. Chelsea is going into the finals, but they've their goalkeeper to thank the more because he stopped two clear chances on goal by Leeds this second half, Leeds had more attempts on goal but couldn't convert any. The match has ended and the goal from Enzo made the difference, man on the match tightly deserved by the captain, he was very exceptional in this match.

Congratulations to Chelsea... They meet Manchester City on 16th May to battle it out for the trophy.

I know that a lot of Chelsea fans are happy today that their losing streaks have come to an end. Enzo goal gave Chelsea the victory as they advance to the finals. It's gon be an easy final for Manchester City because I don't think that Chelsea can stop them from winning the trophy. Manchester City will add one more trophy to their bag.

[Distraction]

The final has been decided!

I don't see the odds yet. But it's obvious that Chelsea will be quite the underdogs.    They have been playing just terrible you know. They are moving on with an interim manager for now.

I don't doubt Guardiola on pushing for treble by winning the FA Cup and PL titles also after doing so in the EFL Cup already. They should be able to do it against a weakened Chelsea.

[BIT-BENDER]

Chelsea vs Manchester City in the FA cup final, and it's the coach that pep guadiola have not beating that is in charge of Chelsea, I don't know what other plans Chelsea may have but I am thinking they may just pack the bus.
Honestly Manchester city needed a late Screamer to beat Southampton so they aren't going to be run away winners of the Fa cup.
But let's talk about Manchester city dominance in all major trophies in England, they are dominant in the carabao cup and this will be their fourth Fa cup finals, England is no where as competitive as people make it because Manchester city is running the show every where.

The final is going to be Manchester city vs Chelsea, because Chelsea has beaten Leeds today 1:0 to qualified for final.  It was a great battle between Chelsea vs Leeds today but the luck Chelsea have in this game is that they embraced their opportunity early to secured single goal that made them to beat Leeds to cause them tears in the stadium today. I know Manchester city will be celebrating ahead of the final seen Chelsea beaten Leeds to meet them in the final, because they don't know that Chelsea has gotten coach that will make this FA cup a surprise one to Manchester city not to win.

One thing you need to know is that this is not premier league game, and Chelsea will use this final to prove to people that they have potential coach that will impact them to beat Manchester city in the final to achieve the trophy to make their fans and coach happy.

New manager bounce. The Chelsea players showed much energy in this game defensively. I did not see anything impressive at all, except for the part where they fight to prove a point that they dislike Liam Rosenior. It is pretty clear, the new manager will florish now he joined the club newly. After some time, the club and the player will go back to their previous ways. I just hope they dont blame the manager when it start.

Chelsea won against Leeds united and qualified for the FA cup final. But I am not satisfied with their performance against Leeds at all. They could  not dominate the match. But chelsea's defense was quite strong. They were able to resist several strong  attacks from Leeds players.

Even if chelsea can win the match  against Leeds united, it is very unlikely that they will beat City. Chelsea could not win any of the last  5 matches against city. They lost four and drew one. And  that is why I say that the chances of chelsea winning against Manchester city are very low. Also, chelsea's performance is not strong now.

[PremiumcryptoHub]

The FA Cup final has been decided but we can see that Man City will play Chelsea. Chelsea reached the final today after a very tough match against Leeds United and in my opinion, the only goal from Enzo Fernandez but their biggest headache in winning the title is facing Manchester City. Everyone saw that Manchester City defeated Chelsea 3-0 in an EPL match very easily, so it seems to me that Manchester City might do the same thing in the upcoming FA Cup title decider. Therefore  in this situation, it can undoubtedly be assumed that Chelsea have reached the final of this tournament, but it seems that they are likely to remain trophyless based on their current performance.

Congratulations to Chelsea... They meet Manchester City on 16th May to battle it out for the trophy.

Manchester City will be the happier of the two sides knowing the good record they have against Chelsea. But can Chelsea be different with this interim coach, Chelsea looked very different in the game against Leeds even though it is just a goal that they were able to get in the game. Chelsea looked more direct and attacking in football today, they played the long passes and if they can do that in the finals a lot more, it could perhaps cause Manchester City issues in their defense.

Chelsea will be the underdog, but they can win it, they can be very good in finals.

[LFC_Bitcoin]

So it’s Man City vs Chelsea in the final, obviously City will start as favourites but anything can happen in a final. I still remember Havertz scoring the only goal in the CL Final when Chelsea beat Man City.

Chelsea are having an awful time at the moment, winning the cup could save their season.
