FA Cup Final | United (N) - Sat 3rd June 15:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Frankie lad]

Our first eleven that played against Madrid and Arsenal are the best team in the world when on it. Of course bad luck and the officials mean we can lose but the rags could get a hiding if not.

You mention best team in the world.I’ve been saying that for a while and folk have been talking to me like I’m an idiot.
I say this.
If you put our best 11 up in a best of 7 against any team in history we would get to 4 every time and I include international teams throughout history too.
Maybe I’m a touch giddy at the moment but I believe this would happen.

Oh No, Martial out... Wout Weghurst to lead the line, well we might as well all give up on the treble now, that's jinxed it!

Mahrez is starting the fa cup final.

Bernardo is starting the ucl final and maybe the fa cup but not on the right wing.

The only reason the Rags took anything from us this season was due to an offside goal , in both games we dominated them , they defended heroically at the Swamp and got a lucky break that turned the game.
They are not anywhere near our level , we can pick eleven from probably sixteen players and beat them comfortably our players love the big occasion and invariably step up to the plate.
Fully expect the Rags to be in survival mode and hoping to stay in the game and scrape a breakaway goal its the only tactic that they will have , we would have to miss a hatful of chances to fail on Saturday and i just dont see that happening.
If we have our shooting boots on this could be embarrassing for the Rags , and they know it , deep down they are shitting themselves for all the bravado and the ressurection of Rag legends spitting their bile this week it come down to 90 minutes at 3pm Saturday and all the pre-match bullshit will not help them.

If only football was so simple, we'd have beaten wigan ;-)

I expect us to beat them, but I won't take it for granted.

Weghorst this season with United:23 games played(1177 minutes), 1 goal scored and 1 assist. This might be one of the worst stats for a striker in years

With stones stepping in to midfield we’ll fucking suffocate them.

5-0 please city

 

[wolviedinho]

Rags will definitely win this one. Gary said he will make sure they understand a defeat is not acceptable and the media clamouring for the old united are roaring them on. City have no chance now. Might aswell just give them the cup now and rest for the champions league.

Rash is world world class and cashmero is better than Rodri and on and on it goes zzzzzzzzzzz.

Cup goals For 17 against 0,Wow.

[Ghostofmerlin]

3-1 City

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

No gobshite comments or shit stirring in the media from City. No calls to arms from players current and past. They're fucking shitting it the red cunts.

Be afraid shitbags, we're coming for you and your history and your poxy records and setting some new ones of our own.
3 in 3 equalled
Domestic quadruple.
100 points
16 wins home 16 wins away.

Now we want this fucking treble and you're not stopping us.

Superb, that has a derby banner at the swamp written all over it.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Wanted the red twats full strength so that when we fuck em over they have no excuses

Fuck that, wouldn't be our problem if they ended up with an under 18's eleven on the pitch.

I'm more than happy to see FAC winners 22/23 Manchester City.

it'll not have an * next to it full strength rags or not.

 

[shemnel]

Martial out, Antony possibly fit. I suppose Rashford will start.

Strongest XI Pep, let's go!!

 

[LangleyBlue1970]

This is occupying my every waking moment - and it’s only Wednesday.

Very confident the boys will set it up so this time next week we are looking at securing a treble.

 

[Gone for a Burton]

They will set up to stay in the game for as long as possible, breaking up play,time wasting,complaining etc.

Taking it to penalties will be in their thinking.

The officials are my biggest concern.

1 corrupt decision has won them one game this season against a better City team.

Don't rule out 1 in each half on Saturday!!

The media, FA,PL,PIGMOL etc do not want City to emulate anything to do with that odious bunch of chicken shits and will do anything to stop us.

Play the game not the occasion City and be brutal.

Talk quietly and carry a big stick !!

 

[hertfordblue]

Look at the two teams and not a single Utd player would get anywhere near the City team. At a absolute push, Rashford on the bench and that is it. Fully expecting a City win.

They will roll around and stay on the ground for as long as possible with every slight touch they get. They did it against Brighton in the semi at one point Fernandez and Rashford were on the floor buying time when clearly nothing was up with them. That tactic will be a ploy to knock any rhythm out of City’s play.

Keep the ball away from them, let them spend the whole game running after the ball. Someone will get tired and switch off which is where are boys come into play and do their stuff.

If city win the treble, Ferguson’s legacy is tarnished

Who remembers that united v arsenal game at old Trafford where arsenal were set to go 50 games unbeaten.

Expecting nothing different Saturday. They don’t want us to do it. We’ll need a 2 or 3 goal lead.
