Definitely a weird feeling in the air for this game, not sure what it is.

Something silly like we will win but Peretz will get injured or something 

Recall Baz, now!

I know what you mean, just feels like one of those games. Although had a few good wins at Swansea over the years, need the spirit of 2018

Or we win 6-0 and rub out Ipswich's goal difference advantage.

Flynn's is the pick of the bunch there IMO.

I think that’s just being Saints. It can only be good for too long before you think it’ll come crumbling down. 
 

I’m quietly optimistic, we look too good for everyone recently even when in 2nd gear, Swansea are fairly average but with 1 big threat to deal with. New ground for me today so hoping for the best, no reason not to be confident other than thinking we’re going to lose just because we’re unlikely to win 7 in a row

It's a weird feeling, confidence. As a Saints fan it is pretty fragile confidence, I think.

Look at our run, our momentum, the fact that we're grinding out wins, easing to wins in 2nd gear. It bodes well...

Doesn't look as if QPR will help us. 2-0 to Millwall.....23 mins gone.

I think Tonda will drum into the players that the semi final is a one-off game to be treated separately to the league matches. Whatever the result he'll close the book and move on. Ok, this is a huge match but realistically the players will not be surprised if we fail to beat City. For that reason the disappointment will feel less than if we were to lose going into the game as firm favourites. Tonda will instil a dose of realism and psychological tricks with the hope that he can keep the players up and ready to go on the Tuesday against Ipswich irrespective of the result at Wembley. If anyone can Tonda can. 

Agree and disagree.  The approach you'd take (there, above) is defeatist and Tonda isn't defeatist. But he will compartmentalise things; best way to do it.
