FA Cup Final - Post Game thread

[silvathechihuahua]

Who the fuck cares we won four in a row ! They were absolute shite just sat behind the ball and got extremely lucky with a misunderstanding at the back…fuck em!

 

[give it to gordon]

Shocking match by both teams. Utd play a 5 5 formation and we gifted them two goals.
The rags around us in the pub are well giddy.

Oh well settle for the champions of England instead:)

Pep was a bit too loyal in his team selection for me but pretty much the whole team under performed. Hopefully will stoke some hunger for next year

 

[NptonBlue89!]

Shocking! Positively Shocking!

Diabolical! Embarrassing really!

We need a major overhaul in midfield. Why was Bruno afforded acres of space.. and why is our defense sleep walking?

Phil Foden turned invisible for 95% of the match again! No wonder Pep says he can improve!

Hope the board listen to Pep this time.. we don't need 4th or 5th choice players this summer!

Wow… hate loosing especially to this lot they are shit team and It hurts …. But they got it right foden didn’t go missing they literally squeezed the space of our mid by playing 4 CMs and out midfield is strong and I would still like that midfield next year! Pep changed it at half time and was just too late if we started that second half team we win IMO

Gifted United European football and dug them out of a huge financial hole.

Just Guardiola doing Guardiola things in the biggest games.

Least they will play catch until they get knocked out on a Thursday night.

 

[Coatigan]

Just a treble then!

Let's get behind the guys. They will be disappointed and all. Bad day at the office, but gave it a right good go at times and particularly at the end, a bit too little too late but remember the moments they gave us this season. 3 trophies and a historic 4 in a row. I am gutted to lose this, but can't complain too much.

Very very poor 1st half performance. Sadly Pep got that wrong with the back 4. Stones had a nightmare, Ake not much better. 2 terrible goals to concede defensively.

Played better 2nd half but missed some good chances, Alvarez being the pick of them. Too many way off their game today. The worst I've seen KDB, Bernardo, Gvardiol and Walker play for months.

Very frustrating performance and result to end the season.

 

[Metal Biker]

Wrong line up, disinterested mindset, lazy performances all around.

Didn't see all three on the cards today. Thing that annoys the most it that I don't think some of them are bothered that much. Well done to Doku though.

 

[CityPar]

Got what we deserved. Nothing. Dreadful first half killed us. No sense of urgency and it felt like we just needed to turn up. Pep got it wrong with his team so needs to take ownership. Still we are the league champions. Roll on next year. I'll be there. CTID.

I know for a fact from a family member that works there that some city players were pissed as fuck at 5am on Wednesday morning.

Can't do that.

Why not wait until next week??

Arrogant thinking they just had to turn up.

I think the whole club was completely focused on the 4 in a row. Even how I'm feeling now, and after the Madrid games, whilst I'm fucked off, I'm nowhere near as bad as I would have been had we lost to spurs or Fulham or west ham.

 

[ufo]

No, just the two I mentioned, because they’re both not good enough.

so just ignore all his contributions over the season just coz he didn’t score today?

you have said that a dozen times and i have just been skimming

 

[Hoghead]

Never looked like scoring. Even our goal should have been saved

 

[Silva&Silva]

Let the Cunts have the FA Fuckin Cup because they’ll never win 4 in a rowwww

Was it not that game against Chelsea when Drogba scored the most obvious offside goal that helped Chelsea stop them from winning 4 in a row?

 

[deano ou812]

Remember we are the champions this is a one off cup final and a huge huge achievement for the rags to get over the line against the greatest team in English football..
let them enjoy their moment well be back next season not sure about the rags ..

 

[RobinHood]

Can't win them all but had to be against these fuckers, didn't it.

 

[blueabdi]

We played like “we won”
Congrats United, they work hard and deserved to win.
You need to respect your opponent.

 

[WesthoughtonJohn]

We didn't turn up - we never got out of 1st gear let alone any other.
Let them have it, it might give them belief that parking the bus and playing on the counter might work.
Apologies to Newcastle though - you didn't deserve that

 

[StillBluessinceHydeRoad]

Very disappointing. Too many of our lads just didn't turn up. Before the match we were talking and agreed that if the rags were to have any chance we had to play our worst game of the season, they had to play better than at any time this season and they had to have a huge slice of luck and guess what happened. But four in a row ain't bad...

Bad day at the office after becoming 4-in-row champions.

Sometimes you don’t realise everything someone brings to the table until they’re gone. Ederson’s relaxed attitude helps to stop panic at the back.

Pep messed up changing both centre backs. Akanji and Dias are in their best form of the season whilst players like Stones haven't started for 5 weeks.

The players getting absolutely hammered the week of the final wasn't a good look and was a concern of mine considering how tight sport is at the elite level. Image a pro boxer getting that pissed the week of a title fight.

That performance from KDB had been bubbling for a while. Apart from the couple of games he had in January, he's been far from his best form since.

Alverez's finishing has dropped off a lot since last season. Can't really afford to be missing chances like he did in the second half especially when trying to earn a place in the team. Not sure on the floated corners either.

Obviously very disappointed to lose to United but can't be too downhearted since I'd have been blown away with a 4th title in a row if offered at the start of the season. Also, if we were going to lose a final against them, at least it wasn't the one on the way to the treble.

1,2,3, nailed it . We played like w*kers today , deserved nothing
