Manchester United Team Talk/Gossip/Rumours Thread 2018 pt. 2

Lord TSC

DDG confirmed to start tomorrow by Jose

Jose

I didn't see it really discussed in thread and I'm only after reading the comments elsewhere myself, but holy shít...

"There are a lot of high-profile people in football, like old players, some have gone from players to weak & frustrated managers & return to football as high-level pundits. People remember more of what they were as players & not of what they were as managers. They influence public opinion.”

:eek:

Good morning people it's Fa cup final day.

Andrew Beef

No matter how football evolves, this day will always be magical for me. It reminds me of my childhood, watching every final with my Dad...the sunshine at Wembley, and my first footballing memory...Norman Whiteside’s wondergoal.

Come on United!!!

Lord TSC

Herrera talking with kind words about Jose

“Let’s put everything in perspective. 2 years ago, we were 5th in the league & won FA Cup. Last season we won 3 trophies & were 6th. This season - 2nd & we can win a trophy. After SAF, we’ve had 4 years of transition & now I think the club is going up with this manager. I really think so."

“This club is about winning titles and reaching finals and this will be my fifth final in two years. If you talk with other football players, they would like to be in our position.”

Really would love Herrera to put this poor season behind him and come back fighting next year.

Does anybody know of how I can watch FA Cup on my iPhone? I have Sky and BT sports package but don’t know how you access them live on the road?

And f**k this Poxy wedding. Any other year and I would be fine but have to be at a thing tonight so will miss the second half...

Actually looks like it started at same time last few seasons so I can’t really blame the wedding. I will be on the road during the second half, just wondering if there is someway I can watch it on iPhone!!

Was giddy and nervous about recent cup finals. More terrified of this one.

Lose and the ultimate nightmare season is almost upon us!

Nah season is over now today is a day to enjoy if we win it tops off a barely acceptable season not a nightmare season.

I love cup final days love them I don't know how some people claim not to care about it.

Given how this thread swings based on what the last result was, I really need this to end on a win to carry us into a positive summer :P

Search for navixsport on the appstore, works great on android but never tried it on ios.

Wining an FA Cup is never season defining for this current version of United. I’m guessing you’re hinting at losing this and Liverpool winning CL?
You think winning the FA Cup is going to be any comfort to you if they win CL?

jayo26

Lads who gives a fuk what they do.

Its cup final day just enjoy it too much time wasted in this thread moaning and fearing what other teams do just enjoy what we achieve I'd we achieve it because people be moaning for next few months no matter what.

Quandary

Losing today and Liverpool winning the champions league would have made for an unbearable summer break. Thank fcuk for the world cup, at least that will distract us if the worst comes to pass :pac:

Cantona's Collars

Talk is that Lukaku is on the bench and Martial starts up front.

Yes. It'll be a nice comfort blanket to weep into.

I'd be happy enough, as long as we play to his strengths and not use him as a target man.

A better centre forward than rashford, can't understand why mourinho was playing martial wide of rashford rather than the other way around.

Better not be, go with your number 1, not some sentimentality selection!

Beasty

Beasty may not have existed in this form in 85 but he saw Whiteside score a cup winning goal and headed back to where I am now a couple of months later

Beasty

It was also 10 years ago on Monday (and indeed Tuesday!) that I last saw United play Chelsea in a cup final (and a very enjoyable occasion it was )

Yep, I think currently Martial is better up front than he is out wide and I think Rashford is better out wide than he is up front.

If Lukaku doesn’t start I’d be happy to see Martial up there.

Positive thoughts lads

Business Cat sorted out the match thread

We are going to win it

The queen has gotten ready for the game.

Come on United!!!

Just watching it on telly, it has never felt the same for me since they moved to the new Wembley. The old Wembley was just... better.

Not sure how legit this is.

How Soon Is Now

I miss the game being on early and big build up starting that morning.

Saying that the build up show that was just on was fairly good.

Once news is done and proper coverage starts beer shall be opened!

Would love to see Martial cf today

If he does start up front I hope not getting into the world cup squad will drive him on to prove people wrong.

I mean if something like that can't motivate you.....

Well DiMarzio is usually spot on with his stuff.

Playing in Wembley in the FA Cup final for United should hopefully be motivation enough!

You would hope so!!

I just don't know with Martial at this stage though. Hopefully when it's all said and done tonight he's played a great game and contributed to us winning.

Rashford starts up front so.

He was an injury doubt apparently.

No Lindelof, Rojo or Shaw on the bench.

Conte actually looks and sounds like he doesn’t want to be there.

Liam McPoyle

Hopefully a comfortable win, love to see Rom come off the bench to score.

Completely, just going through the motions.

FatherTed

Would love it is Rashford scores today. He's been very much maligned this season at times but we should remember he is still only 20.

How Soon Is Now

Shame Fergie couldn't be there. Doubt he's missed many if any of United s finals over his time around the club.

wanderer100

Massive game this for Rashford I feel. Would love to see him score and then see Martial come off the bench and get on the scoresheet
