FA Cup Final - Post Match Thread

[tonea2003]

I think he must post on here!

must admit did think it was a bit sensationalist at the time, and now been made to look very foolish

Seeing as the media thread is locked, I'll leave this here....

peter spencer can bite it. jesus is fkn great, i don't get how others don't get it, just 22 yrs old, brazilian international, 44 goals in 99 games for us in mostly low substitute minutes. his goals per minute might be the best on the team. he sees the game better and is better on the ball than mahrez, he is way more composed finishing and he is not selfish. when he came down the left he passed to kev for his goal cus it was the right play though he could have taken it himself, awhile later the same thing happened where sterling should have passed to jesus and wrongfully kept it and got zero results. when kev put jesus through he took it perfectly faking gomer.
as aguero winds down jesus will be our man and is a potential blue legend.

Not sure it’s been mentioned but Kevin Friend had an excellent game yesterday - I know we all love to slag off refs - me included - but should recognise when a ref has an excellent game and he did yesterday. Credit to him.

What a day, what a week.

I feel truly blessed to have been present for the Brighton game and yesterday.

Yes he did, ignored the Watford complaining, especially for the penalty and was extremely fair, which is all we ever ask.

Erm......they did. I was behind the goal and they had the cup right in front of us.

First time I have seen us win the fa cup live. Too young for 1969, lost in 1981 and against Wigan and i couldn't get a ticket in 2011. Fantastic couple of days and what a result.

im from canada and i got to see the fa cup in Los Angeles when the blues were on tour against the LA Galaxy and they had it on display, awesome.
the only thing better there was watching Balotelli try the spin-o-rama shot on goal and bottled it, mancini went mental and i got to watch the whole thing live.

On the way home now, a bit bleary eyed and tired. Being Sunday I have to go around the houses, train to Harrow then one to Milton Keynes to connect with the Manchester train. What a weekend, what a season.

Amazing day out yesterday. Nice to be able to enjoy a final without biting my nails off! Great way for Vinny to bow out too.

Agree. Very good. Their penalty moaning was absolutely laughable. That was never a penalty in a million years. Some of their fans are calling it a blatant penalty on their forum!

Just like to say thank you all for that wonderful result, I really enjoyed watching the game for a change! Your team is just simply Majestic, outstanding and down right scary as F**K.
I really hope Wolves can emulate and follow in your footsteps, if it does happen I’ll be a happy man.
Again congratulations on your Treble and look forward to seeing you play and seeing you at molineux next year. Hopefully you can get that champions league notch next year!

Love watching Wolves too.
Nice comments coming in from a few Wolves fans that seem to appreciate good football.

We should have been playing your lads yesterday (and if we had, I doubt it would have been 6). How the fuck you let the semi final get away from you, I don't know.

Teething trouble. They’re heading the right direction.

I have just noticed the players shirts it say choose Etihad please tell me that's not been there all year or is it a one off cup final shirt.

Thought there was one slight weakness in the side today. At 0-0 and early doors, City had possession but were liable to be counter-attack. Every attacking side faces this threat, but I thought we were a little wide open and missed Fernandinho. Had they taken that chance it could easily have been a different game.

One off as the cup’s sponsored by Emirates. We also declined to wear the sleeve sponsorship.

Bit odd - their strap line at the moment is choose well, so not sure why they went with choose. Hopefully it will be Etihad Airways next year but as a few have said we can probably get a bigger sponsor that Etihad going forward.

Hardly noticed him, which is usually sign of a ref having a good game.

Jesus man of the match for me, good skills, team player, brilliant work rate, oh and the lad can finish as well!
