FA Cup Final - Post Game thread

[buckshot]

The only thing that's getting me over the blinding rage of losing today is realizing that cup competitions are bullshit, anybody could lose to anybody once. The best football competition in the world is the Premier League where every team is dangerous.

 

[I'm With Stupid]

We were massively below our best but had twice as many shots as them with 75 per cent possession.

Yeah, but what type of shots? How many saves did Onana make? I only remember one really good one, and arguably he should have saved our goal too.

2 players will be enough. The Winger. And the attacking Mid. The rest can come in time

2 Players? Not a chance.

A couple of shocks this window for sure, especially if we are spending 100m on Bruno alone.

Maybe 3. DM, CM and Wing.

Need a new RB

 

[Goro]

We lost simple as that
Next season let’s go again

Maybe 3. DM, CM and Wing.

Add a Goalkeeper and CB

100% and the FA Cup is the most overrated competition in the world.

Like everything in the UK , tradition is holding it back, Abide with me, FFS

Well that was shit

 

[ChicagoBlue]

Your first two sentences, why can we all see it but Pep stubbornly refuses to adapt to it?

I think he accepts the threat, trusting his centre backs, given it provides overloads in other areas of the field that usually help him control the ball for large swaths of the game.

Utter dogshit, pint of wine at half time made the second half slightly more palatable. Scratch that actually, the whole thing was shit

 

[Shirley]

Ha ha I must have had a pint of wine also but fortunately I can’t remember watching it now

Loved it last week making history 4 premiers on the bounce still basking in it and so we should! One of games shit teams sitting in 8th can fluke it with a couple of hoofs a cock up referee not giving anything! It's typical of the scum when they don't win leagues through there whole history raising there games against the best team!

 

[MadchesterCity]

Have the players let the fans down by getting pissed all week? I guess we need to cut them some slack but very unprofessional and they've clearly not performed at anywhere near their capabilities

 

[Sky Blue]

Well, that was a shit night's sleep.

 

[Groke]

disappointed, thought it was an invitation

 

[decmancity]

No need for this thread is there. They had a beer on Sunday. Back in training on Tues/Wednesday.

We didn't need weeks of prep to show up yesterday.

 

[Fordyboy46]

Pep's fault entirely for fucking up with our back line, nothing to do with lasting effects of alcohol

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Well, that was a shit night's sleep.

Yep - every 2 hours - "shit we really lost to that shower of shit?:
The only consolation (actually there are many), but the mighty Manure reduced to plucky 20 odd % possession (even when we play that badly), giant killers. Tena Hag safe.

 

[Blue tiger]

No way with that analogy
We were two down at half time.
You want a player to come on and do in
twenty minutes what the rest couldn't do.

I think you have missed interpreted what I said. Alvarez had a big big chance that he put wide from about 12 yards out. He has to score that chance to give is more time to turn the screw.
