onthebeach Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Dropped my son off at King Power this morning for the coach to Wembley. So, so pleased for him that he had enough points to get a ticket. Underdogs again - but it would be great for our city to get the euphoria of 2016 back again!

eastynh Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Fair play to Leicester City. Seeing the fans, players and owners reaction at the end there was absolutely fantastic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jyoung Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Congrats to Leicester. Thoroughly deserved. Poor selection from Tuchel. We didn't deserve anything from the game. Second game on the bounce now. Need to get our shit together for these final three games or else that honeymoon period is well and truly over.

Even when united were shite in the 70s and 80s we had a good record in the fa cup, now we do not seem to take it seriously. Great scenes.

FA cup winners should get a Champions League place. Coming 4th should not be celebrated more than winning a cup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Round 3: Aston Villa 1–2 Manchester United Round 4: Northampton Town 0–3 Manchester United Round 5: Manchester United 4–2 Manchester City(when city were average) Round 6: Manchester United 2–1 Fulham Then again you make a good point, as it would give the cup a bigger importance and teams take it more seriously.

pink_triangle Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 I hate VAR and would happily live in a world where that goal was given. However on this occasion I am glad the system was there! Chelsea have massive financial advantage over Leicester which in my view is a much bigger factor than a marginal decision. The better team won and I think it means more to clubs who gets the experiences less often. I also think after winning the league last time in Vardys house, they deserve their moment on the pitch.

rock the clock Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Will be an interesting couple of weeks. Of course if they miss out on top 4 + lose the big final then things don't look that great, but I still think Tuchel has done an amazing job at patching up clear holes in the team. Maybe they've been figured out when it matters most Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jyoung Posted May 15, 2021 Report Share Posted May 15, 2021 Grim day, what with the booing of players taking the knee. Tuchel calling it a lucky goal? I don't like that at all... I remember with Conte, when we had it right, it was electric. But when it went wrong, he was useless. Obviously too soon to say with Tuchel but today is a huge disappointment and his reaction is going to be massively important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
