I just hope Pep will have worked out that Sterling has never beaten wan-bissaka when he plays him on left wing. Either play him on right or drop him.

This is so true.

Never want to play them in a final, yes I know we are the better team but with var and red refs I couldn't stand to lose to them in one, the fa semi was without doubt the most tense game I have been to.

After 65 years of watching it was the most tense for me as well. Pure agony till the final whistle.

 

[Kinkys Left Foot]

Don't expect VAR to help us out!
If we can get ourselves to levels approaching where we were in the semis at their shithole last year, we will beat them. We know that and they know that!
Just don't want to see us getting caught high up the pitch on the counter by these fucking one trick ponies.
It's getting the balance right between being defensively sound and not blunting the attack too much.
I'm still laughing at shithouse pundits insinuating it was up to us to make the running at Old Toilet in the bore fest that was the last derby. Yes folks settling for a point in a derby away when we're obviously not at our best is somehow a poor show. Yet fucking no criticism for the bus driver and United shithousery counter attack football at home. Yes Ole you had more posession in this one, but not because you were better than last year it's because we let you have the ball without the press to counter shit tactics football.
Anyway were winning this 0 - 2.

Just a thought (and it has happened in the past) ... that the ties are played Wed/Thu instead of Tue/Wed ... if so we (the club) should go all out asking for the game to be scheduled on Thu night.

No. Thursday nights are for the Rags only!
Plus last time we played them on a Thursday at the swamp they won 5-0!

 

[blue b4 the moon]

For all of VAR's faults, last night was a prime example of why it is needed. Cavani would have been sent off for the neck grab. Instead he scores the 1st of the winning goals near full-time.


Plus, with the Rags diving left, right, and centre in and around the 18 yard box, VAR needs to keep an eye on that.

Fred waves.

There's so VAR in ragworld.

Then another tenner on Brentford winning the final.

I still have nightmares of the regular cup beatings by them.

I’d rather lose to them than the spuds mate, still have nightmares about the 81 final

And we the coverage for the semis will be bad. Sky will dig up Chas and Dave to write the final theme tune.

Luckily I don’t watch or listen to anything associated with them or BT sport, I’m blissfully unaware of the shite they spout about us
