If so, we can win it. Why not? That is my only fear. Man U players will be more used to the big occasion, compared to our lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of World Cup winners and multiple CL winners (as well a few other trophies) is why I think they'll have the slight edge Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trippier will be huge for us in this as captain as a result of that; he's played in big games/finals also on top of that. Isak also played in Real Sociedad's Copa del Rey final win which was their first trophy in 34 years. Botman's a Ligue 1 champion too. Our lads will need to contain our emotions though, especially the likes of Bruno and Joelinton. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 Stop shitting yourself before we're even close to the match lads, check Man Uniteds fixture list and tell me we don't have a strong chance. They play 6 games instead of our 3 also. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paullow Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 SkyBet 'to lift the trophy' - Man Utd very slight favourites at 8/11, Newcastle evens. Even money to win a cup competition. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paullow Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 In some ways playing Man Utd help help a bit with the overseas profile, social media followers, and possibly sponsorship opportunities, especially if we were to win. It just has a very big feel about it, and much more of an actual occasion. Bring it on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Prophet Posted February 1, 2023 Share Posted February 1, 2023 26 minutes ago, ilikenewcastle said: 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. I like how they've got us pegged as park the bus merchants and have totally reinvented the game at OT where we were the better team first half and hung on a bit at the end as some kind of Alamo job. Unfortunately, a large majority of Man United fans I've met do go on like that. I think the entitlement and arrogance comes with sustained successes and we'll see it in our own fanbase one day.

Gallowgate Toon Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I think it'll be a good game. They're slight favourites and that's fine, we're more suited to that, imo. Last time we played them we were missing some serious attacking options in the squad. Hopefully, we go in close to full strength. They'll rotate for their schedule, it's not like they're going to turn up not being able to run or owt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

nufcjb Posted February 2, 2023 Share Posted February 2, 2023 I see that our problem maybe that we exert ourselves too much too early and we run out of gas 2nd half. Probably Edide needs to manage that and get the balance right. Yes, we need to be attacking and probably try and get an early goal or two in games but any better team than Southamptoon would have punished us severely if we play the way we did in that 2nd half.
