F.A. Cup 2017/18

[1882andallthat]

Mourinho will now pipe up about us having home advantage. And of course in the days leading up all of our team will be linked with moves to them in the summer

Well he can shut the f*ck up and Poch should cheekily respond by saying they were given home advantage according to the rules......

I’d rather play a Mourinho team in the semis than the final.

I think we will have to approach the game differently to the 2 nil win else he will be ready for that just like when we beat Chelsea 5 3 then they beat us in the league cup final.

Juventus....have my seat if you want.

I have no idea where this baseless optimism is coming from.
I'm not one of those 'we need a trophy grrr' fans, I'm happy with how we're progressing as a club, but theres nothing wrong with being realistic.

Everyone knows Juventus was a different type of game. Plus we still outplayed them anyway, just weren't best clinical enough.

That's fine. I'm happy too with our progress

But I want an open top bus celebrating this team winning something.

They’re shitting it having to play us aren’t they!

Brilliant.

Honest to God whoever was saying Zola picked up ball 3( chelsea) and dropped it back down has hit the nail on the head. That's the draw she read out. Zola has 100% cheated.

Surprisingly one or two with some sense in there.

Very different game, knockout football, no second chances, like the FACup.
I want an open top bus as well, but after that draw there's nothing wrong with admitting that's pretty unlikely to happen this season.

 

[spurs mental]

Tiger trust me, watch it again. And then she reads out what would have been the draw? It's not a conspiracy

Or maybe it is. I don't know anymore

Im still pleased with the draw anyway

Any of them would realy. We were the team that none of them wanted to draw

2 games. That's all we've to play.

Everyone and their mother has been rambling about learning curves and lessons since Juve.

Well let's see what these lads are made of. Of course Mourinho will have a plan. Park the bus. Like always.

If you don't have the belief that we can beat them then I don't know how you can even say you're happy with our progress.

It's not surprising when you consider the thread is complete garbage

If we crap ourselves every time we draw someone "big", then all this talk of us progressing is just plain bollocks.
We beat them, after a dominant performance.
We will have played Chelsea by then, so that will be a lacmus test.

Not sure how different we'd try to approach the game to be honest. I think they played quite a few attacking players that day, Pogba in a 2 man midfield with Matic and with Martial, Lingard, Sanchez and Lukakau ahead. I can definitely see him trying to pack and congest the middle of the pitch this time around to force us as wide as possible as much as possible and trying to make players like Dembele, Alli, Eriksen and Kane less effective through the central areas.

It's weird because Mourinho is the reason why I don't fear United so much because of what he's turned them into and the football he has them playing yet at the same time he's the only reason why I fear United. Kinda strange

I admire your optimism, but don't share it I'm afraid.
It's not just United though is it? If it were I'd fancy our chances....but feel youre setting yourself up for disappointment.

 

[heelspurs]

Because of the pace he hit it yes, and it was a good reaction save, but with penalties placement is most important. Followed by placement, and placement again.

Agree, but what's 4th most important? I'm not really that good with following patterns.

 

[Gb160]

What's unrealistic about thinking we can beat Man Utd in a semi final having totally outplayed them a few weeks ago?

I'm talking about beating United, followed by probably Chelsea.
If it was just United I'd fancy our chances, but both...don't think we're quite there yet.

She made a mistake
