The FA Cup Final City Vs Wigan Pre Match Discussion Thread

[rnblade]

IMO it's gonna go 1 of 2 ways
1. City will fly from the start and demolish them in the first half. Cruise through the second and come home to a heroes welcome. (Preferred)
Or
2. We stumble and cling on for 60 mins and fluke a goal and spend the rest of the game in our own half.
I know which I want, but we are CITY and we know which one is the most likely.
COME ON CITY!!!

Just getting excited now, please let us relax and enjoy the day with a nice 2-0 half time lead

IMO there will only be one goal in it, we haven't beaten wigan by more than one goal away from the Eithad since...............................................

I think you're right, I fancy us to win 2-1 and that will be just fine but I'd love to spend the last 20 minutes care free and partying than the usual sitting on hands grimacing. As long as we win again though the party on the way home is always more enjoyable than the match

A game we cannot win. After this week's rag/media wa*kfest over Sir Slergie and The Gargoyle, we will now have the charade of Dave Whelan leading 'little' Wigan out for their 'big day' and will be the neutral's preferred winner as 'underdogs'. We, of course - and we can't really complain about this - are 'expected to win'; we're the nasty big bullies who will (and clearly do) 'ruin football' and must therefore hope to be beaten.

Personally I don't give a fiddlers fart; romance of the cup my arse! I hope we trounce them 5-0, although I expect a closer 2, maybe 3-1 to us.

micah has ruled himself out as not fit enough and maicon is here for 3 at the back and as that is how wigan play i suspect he will be on the bench

I hope Wigan do play 3 at the back. A potential frontline of;

...........................Aguero........................

.........Silva.............Tevez..............Nasri........

....will tear them apart.

Not one mention of the 2013 FA Cup final in the 150th year of the FA on Friday's back pages (one day before the game). All United/Moyes and other snippets. Hopefully it at least gets some coverage in Saturday's... unless they tenuously link United with Neymar/Cavani/someone else, giving them an excuse to plaster the back pages with them again.

Hopefully Wembley will be like a home game for us! Our players have played their more than theirs plus we're going to have more fans there than them.
