United (N) - Sat 25th May | 2024 FA Cup Final | Pre-Match Thread

Hopefully not the same officiating which was extremely one sided.
Madley as ref who officiated our 3-1 win v them though he let Chelsea foul as at will in the 1-1 and failed to send off Caceido. Oliver on Var is dangerous though

Oliver is a crapshoot. He could easily have given that last ditch pen at anfield yet he bizarrely ignored Jesus's blatant handball yesterday

We just need to maintain what we’ve been for months . ‘Relentless ‘ is the best way by to describe our team.

We just have to score goals that can’t be VARed, like Phil's first yesterday.

I’m sorry, you’ve lost me.

U said if we score 2 v rags thats 150 for the season, I said is hoping we score 52 for 200 a bit greedy

Oh right.

I think that is just a bit beyond us.

Manu looked tired the last couple of weeks and made some mistakes so maybe time for a rest. Fresh Jack in with Doku to run riot the last 30 minutes

I like your selection and your reasoning. But I also love to see Ake on the pitch for us. Even ahead of Dias.

Ruben brings that leadership imo mate , he’s been off colour a bit this season but I still feel better when he’s there

No need to change anything from what's got us our 4th title in a row.

As poor as they've been of late it won't be a walkover, it's a derby cup final, it'll be a tight game.

they'll likely have quite a few players back, they'll of course play on the break so we need the pace of walker and akanji at the back, kovacic and Rodri to dominate the game and get foden and kdb on the ball as much as possible.

All time head to head goals in every competitive game

City 272 United 273

If we win by a two goal margin it’s one for you to fake not knowing the answer to when a rag laughs at the mere possibility City have scored more in “their” history.
