LFEE Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Going to be very tough. Man Utd playing better than us and more strength in depth. Thankfully football doesn’t always play out like it should. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Cup final against Man Utd, fucking magic. Genuinely wouldn't want it to be anyone else. Promises to be an incredible occasion. I think we'll win; it just feels like our moment. I know they're on their longest run without a trophy since the seventies or whatever but I still think we'll want it more. Looking forward to it.

sushimonster85 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Have a similar feeling. Their fixture congestion before the cup is crazy. Was saying to a mate last night, if I were a neutral I'd be saying "I fancy Newcastle here" God I feel sick already. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cort Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 As with Australia in cricket, seeing them dominate the league combined with their pathetic on-field behaviour when growing up means I can't imagine a team I'd like to beat more than this lot to end our drought. So I see it as the ideal final, and hopefully we'll manage to outnumber them at Wembley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thorpinho Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Judging from their facebook, the people who do the central park fanzone for the world cups etc are doing one for the final. Also seen wylam brewery selling tickets already for showing it in their main hall. I would love to see something done at SJP personally. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

OoOGazOoO Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 If I have missed ought then my mistake, but when do the tickets go on sale? Assume someone like me who isn't a season ticket holder has no chance of getting hold of a couple? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dokko Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Said from the start, Manu is better for us as we're the underdogs. We can sit back and be happy to defend and hit them on the counter, force a few mistakes. I've not been impressed with us for some time in games where we should win.

elbee909 Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) I don't really expect us to win, but I hope (and expect) us to give it a bloody good go. I can't just 'expect' silverware, it's just not something that happens to us, but if it does.... if it does, man. High intentions, low expectations.

That's just not how we play under Eddie though. There's been a few occasions where we've been forced into sitting deeper in the second half (Man City at home and Liverpool, Arsenal and Man U away to an extent), but we've never gone into a game with the plan being sitting back and hit on the counter. We'll go to the final looking to beat them by playing our own game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilikenewcastle Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Unless we just get completely overwhelmed by the occasion, there's no way this won't be a very close match right? If so, we can win it. Why not? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ExiledGeordie Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 (edited) We have the defence and power in our side including midfield to knock them over. Everyone will have to be on their game though. The key selection I think will be the front 3 and what he goes for. I’d be tempted by an Isak, Wilson, Miggy or Willock, Isak, Miggy if Wilson still bang out of form but then I’m not manager 😂 I think Isak if he plays really could be the one who swings it for us though.

Blimey just had a look at their League Cup final thread and it's actually a bit deranged. This run of form they're on has reminded me how much I can't stand them. Been a joke for the last few years, but a few good results and the unbelievable arrogance of the fans and media bumlicking is back with a vengeance.

More likely to play like we did in the first half. Second half yesterday was the 4th half of a two legged tie, two goal up, consolidation it looked like.
