More than good enough to go on and win this comfortably.

Only if we don’t do anymore stupid defensive mistakes

I'm just going to say it - I blame Pep for that.

Play the guy 3 times in 3 months, drop him for an 19 year old and then throw him back in the team on a whim in the cup final. His treatment of Stones is bizarre to me. Drops him for months, gives him one or two games then drops him again, all while persisting with Otamendi who makes just as many errors.

If his head isn't right, don't bloody play him in a final!

I feel for him. He misread it and got his legs in a tangle. It could happen to anyone but of course it's him.

That said, we got incredibly lucky for our second so i'm not that annoyed. Just frustrated for him.

Disappointing to go in at 2-1 after that 1st half showing, gift of a goal for them although the cross and header was good. Should have got a 3rd before they scored. Not sure Silva looks up for this, his touch has been a bit off for the great man.

How can a professional footballer make a mistake like that!? Jesus

I actually laughed out loud at the replay

Too funny. We should still score a couple more

The game was over and done with but sure as day is day, Stones steps up with another disaster. Can’t stand the fucker me, soft as shit and unlike some others on here, I don’t get a raging boner because he can play 5 yard, square passes.

Exactly, people think he’s good on the ball because he takes his time on it, looking confident, only to then make the simple pass that was also available 5 touches ago.

For those watching on tv was there a foul on Raheem in the area about 5 mins before they scored?

Looked like a nailed on pen to me and spent the next few mins expecting var to call it back. Still haven’t seen a replay.

It’s not even funny wankers like him paid a lot of money to fuck up in games . Went over to Russia got to the semis on a very very lucky run. Came back like billy big bollox thinking he was better than he actually his and it’s dickhead moves like that which is the reason why we are so far adrift in the title

Oh fuck right off.

 

[why me? Blue Manchester]

Fucking genius.

Brilliant hahaha
