Eales doesn’t come out well in that article.

When you look at some of the teams Cup Winners Cup winners had to beat you can clearly see the Fairs Cup was a much harder competition to win.

Mbeumo and Guehi should be filed under ‘previous transfer targets’ and we should move on. Show a bit of imagination and raid the continent.

Still won it, the one city rule was kept even for the first couple of seasons of the UEFA Cup. Not our fault inferior cities have more than one team….

Whilst the Fairs Cup, which was essentially the same completion has been written out of history… 🤷🏻‍♂️

It’s been a blast…..

He can sit next to Tosin on the bench. I’m glad these players are going elsewhere they don’t have the right stuff for our team.

Limped over the line but we did it! No-one, not the fans, the ownership etc. could have expected CL with this team. So fair play to Howe and the players. The front 3 been rotten for the last three games but that’s all forgotten now. Let’s strengthen and become the ESL6’s worst nightmare.

Been poor last two games too. Hoping Bruno or Tonali hit a thunderbastard or Burn/Schar get something from a set piece.

Martinez with a typically crazy decision. The touch by Hoijland though……

This, Everton would no doubt love to piss on our chips but how far are they going to go? Will they scrap for every ball for 90 mins? Throw themselves into last ditch tackles? Put their bodies on the line chasing lost causes? I can’t see it, we need an early goal and they’ll fold.

With matches being played simultaneously and with a goal potentially being scored at any time I’d hate to go into the 90th minute with both games poised at 1-1. We need to put these Scouse twats to bed in the first half.

Can’t rely on these no hopers.

Man Utd dipping out would be funnier. They won’t even value the trophy if they win. Got to be Spurs.

Bournemouth were pathetic against Villa. I wouldn’t hold your breath.

This was almost 3 years ago. Bruno was different right from the start.

Only just seen Villa’s away record at Old Trafford, it’s terrible. I think they drop points.

Gordon is a great player, we should be building with him involved. He often seems quite brooding or moody, I put that down to frustration with his own performance.

Looks like Raya was wearing the new Adidas keeper template. .

Spurs and Man Utd 5 and 6 points off Champions League 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Ok so, if Man United beat Villa we qualify for CL, doesn’t matter about any of the other results. Not sure I want to risk getting beat off Everton though.

The last 10 games have gone as expected IMO, lost to Arsenal, Villa and drew with Brighton away. Won all the home games. We should beat Everton comfortably, it’ll be a real kick in the balls if we lose this CL spot now.

Rotten this afternoon.

It’s a shame it has to come down to the final day as I reckon 67 points will be enough with Forest dropping points today and either Chelsea or Villa dropping points in the last game. Probably an uncomfortable 90 mins against Everton unless we grab a couple of early goals.

Where’s that gen dit ITK that popped up before the Chelsea game? Any early team news?
