Unfortunately I do think the dark arts, ie the ref, linesmen and VAR will come into play today. Tierney shows a bias to them, Coote the same on VAR I am new to the forum- been browsing for years, so don't know/not rech savvy enough how to insert links/copy text but have a look at yesterday's footballisfixed.blog. The piece is specifically about the final.
Also mentions Utd will be doing a Dippers, possibly all suddenly got 'asthma' so will enhance performance. So Rashford likely to be faster than Red Rum. Also claims Ten Hag and some of the players deliberately threw the semi with Sevilla to avoid a game 3 days before this match. I know folk have differing views and jury out on this footballisfixed blog guy, but a fair bit of what he has written and alleged in the past seems to have been true.
Also claims a few of our guys ( who have a particular agent may not play up to standard. Hmmm not sure on that one, however).
So no matter we are the better team, the establishment, betting crooks and youshited want a red win.
We rarely get anything positive from refs so unless we have clear goals that can't be pulled back 50 moves....
For those reasons have stopped being nervous, just feel like we will be shafted. been a long week....
I do hope he is completely wrong and we shaft them but I won't hold my breath!!
