Miggys First Goal Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Nerves are well and truly setting in now. That being said, I fully expect Karius to have the game of his life, Bruno to score an absolute worldie, Joelinton to go through Fernandes like a truck and beautiful Eddie to have tears when he lifts the trophy above his head. This is our time. Let’s fucking go! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Froggy Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Bookies have us 6/5 for this. They had us 11/10 against Barca. That's indicative of just how much you have improved over the last 12 months. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tisd09 Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Yeah would be even better if we could get the win with them at pretty much full strength, although obviously the win is the most important thing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shak Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 Rashford clearly had a bit of a limp coming off but it seems very likely he just got a kick at some point. Probably have some mild bruising this morning and be fine for Sunday after a couple of days rest. Half chance they put him on the bench if he's also a bit jaded but I'd be surprised, he's such a key player for them and winning a trophy in his first season would be big for Ten Haag.

Whitley mag Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 (edited) They may have played Thursday but have much more quality off the bench. We need Isak and Willock off the bench later in the game when it’s stretched. Massive that Willock is fit to play as this could go all the way to extra time. Think it’ll be attritional and Wembley has a habit of knackering players over the 90 mins, whether it’s the adrenalin or what the subs could decide this. I predict Rashford doesn’t start and Man U look to put us away on the break in 2nd half, could go anyway but we’ve simply got to start taking our chances as we’ll need to score at least 2 to win this.

With their schedule and the fact they've won every trophy going multiple, multiple times in my lifetime then it makes perfect sense for them not to have a parade. Entirely different kettle of fish for us. As for not a real trophy clearly that's bollocks, it is a major trophy. But it's not as special as the FA Cup and nobody will ever, ever convince me otherwise. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was expecting an easy victory for them the last 2 Wembley visits against them. I think the result comes down to how we cope with the occasion as much as how Man United play. There’s definitely been an air of after the Lord Mayor’s show about our performances since the semifinal. As much as Howe has talked about the focus being on the next game we’ve turned up some really uncharacteristic performances both collectively and individually, and I think that’s because Wembley’s hanging over us. Could be nerves, could be getting complacent. Who knows, but I don’t think it’s an accident our form has tailed off over the last three games. The team that keeps its head wins on Sunday. That concerns me as I don’t think we’ve the big game experience that Man United do but there seems to be quite a bit of pressure on them too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Prophet Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 It still feels like the draw is a strong runner here, I can't see there being much in it at all. We're a big physical side, who won't offer the same kind of space that Barcelona afforded them. If recent games are anything to go by, they do give you chances in the first 20-30 minutes. If they do so here it's absolutely vital that we take them. We can't afford to be missing chances at the rate that we have been of late. On the other hand those balls over the top are a worry. I'd hope after Liverpool, we aren't too aggressive with the press and drop off a yard or two to counter that. It's a really interesting match up and recent Wembley finals have tended to be close, low scoring affairs. I think it'll be similar here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ridiculous the amount of space they gave us. The most space we've had all season. We had 3 or 4 golden chances that we should have buried over the two legs. I know I'm not alone in thinking that Sunday will be harder than last night. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaqen Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 I think we've possibly been conserving energy a bit in some of the league games with this in mind. Whatever the outcome I'm sure we'll give it everything we've got and make it extremely difficult for them. We'll win trophies under this regine for certain so it doesn't feel like when will we get this chance again type of game. I just would love it if it was this set of players to end the drought. Two local lads in the starting lineup, the redemption of the likes of Miggy and Joe. A reward for Tripps and Bruno taking a chance on us. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
