Literally every Man United fan I know thinks they’ll win.

 

(I only know one)

 

:lol: Literally every one I know is concerned about fatigue and coming up against your press.

I think it is a winnable game. I can’t actually vividly picture us winning it. Confident we’ll turn up to this one and that the occasion won’t get to the inexperienced within the team. Here’s hoping for a great spectacle and may the least successful team win!

I think we can win, but as far as an actual prediction goes I can't call it. We're two relatively evenly matched teams who are only separated by goal difference in the league, the winner will be whoever holds their never on the big occasion.

Fatigue or Casemiro not being fit an available are your two main obstacles iro the final.

 

I'd love to be wrong but I think Man Utd at Wembley will be a bridge too far for this team. Hope we give you a proper game this time though.

Whatever happens in this game, the feeling around this final is so much different than 98 and 99. Back then it was clear we were on the way down. Getting to two finals in a row was remarkable in itself, but each one had the feeling of 'we will need a massive bit of luck to  even have a chance'.

 

This one feels so much better. Partly because (whilst we're underdogs) I do give us a very legit chance of winning. But mainly because, whatever happens, this should become more and more of a regular thing. If the worse happens and it doesn't go our way, I really don't think we'll be waiting another 24 years for a crack at another cup final. If things keep going the way they're going there will likely be more in the next 3/4 years. I have a quiet theory in my head that we're making the final of the Europa League next season for example :laugh2:.

 

All that being said. I think I'd give my left arm to beat the bastards.

Man Utd's form seems to be what rightly concerns us but over the last year our form is outrageous. We'll have Bruno back after an enforced but well earned rest, they are missing Ericsson and play more games including Barca 2nd leg several days before having to face the hungriest, highest intensity team in this country. We'll do this.

 

Ps yeah I'm shitting it still too.

Eriksen missing is huge. He's one their more press resistant players.

 

Presumably Fred or McTominay will come in, which gives us an advantage in midfield.

 

Rashford and Antony are the issue, we need Almiron and Joelinton doing the hard yards to keep them quiet.

If we get a rumoured 32k allocation I would feel pretty confident to get tickets as I have 3 season tickets and bought home tickets to all but, one of the round matches. Only missed Leicester home because I forgot to order tickets during Xmas/ new year holidays. Fingers crossed....   

 

 

Looks like I am tier 3....   hmm...   hoping!
