FA Cup Final v Watford - Pre Match Thread

[ray21]

Love them warm up tops, like that to be the away shirt next season.

Assume im the only one happy that Gabby is starting

Not at all. Brave choice by Pep. I’m sure Kun will get on the pitch at some stage.

I see the dickeads are out. Pep can do no wrong pricks.
Answer this.
Who would YOU start in a cup final?
Marhez and Jesus
Or Sane and Aguero.

Simple question.

- Sane is on his way out, has been terrible since the start of the year. Should be nowhere near the starting 11
- Aguero's half-arsed pressing is ineffective vs Watford, he'll do well coming from the bench when the oppos are tired
- Sterling is more dangerous on the left
- Jesus is one of the world's best forwards in terms of pressing/defending, rarely loses the ball

So the answer is obvious.

We lost 1-0
Vinny got sent off
Jesus got caught offside a record number of times in a single match
Mahrez was shit
and it was all Sterling’s fault
Oh...and the coaches the players paid for broke down

Enough with the BBC match report, how did we actually do?

 

[Blueknows]

Got to admit that is a nice strip they have on and good of the club to celebrate the team of 50 years ago

Pity Nike couldn't have come up with a decent kit in the time they had with us

If not point your vpn to uk and watch on bbc.

It's on ESPN+ (Gold) or whatever it's called

I'm okay with the team but admit I would have started Sane and Aguero but I am not a risk taker. I have been fuming and agreed with you many times over the season about Pep overthinking things but I have usually been proved wrong. After the last few weeks I don't have the energy to get too worked up about this selection and Gabby has played well in the cup. Happy to see how things pan out and things can be changed if it's not working.

I see bill is in full trolling mode

Gotta love him, he’s such an old school blue!
