Match Day Thread 2017/18 Premier League, Cups & Euro Watch

I'd take a 6-0 loss for both #****s

 

Must have been filled with young lads and the big players rested.......

 

you know what.

thus year the fa cup has a weekend of it own and they kept the stupid 5:15 kick off

I was thinking on my way home.

3pm... should be kick off.

imo this should be reinstated and the final should have it's own weekend as well.

 

Its gonna be as dull as a game gets. Easy win for utd

 

yeah....

you could get your house on Utd given Chelsea whining and infighting.

 

Got to laugh at commentators both not knowing the rules that a genuine attempt to play the ball is now only a yellow if you’re last man, not a red if inside the area.

 

The rule on double punishment was brought in, but that looked like a last second lunge to prevent him scoring and not an attempt to win the ball. Red for me

 

This is not a dig at Utd or Chelsea
The empty seats I. The ground are a ****ing disgrace
It is they Fa cup final ffs
I would have been so happy had we been there
These decking corporate cretins do my scone in

 

for me it's just dull and half paced.

I have seen a lot of Chelsea performances like this one this season. the best word for it is passive.

utd have to score. let's see what they have in them


tbh looking at both teams.

a) Chelsea are negative and took out a forward to have both whacky backy and won't run fab in there.

b) utds back 4 are just so ordinary. jones and smalling and young... Valencia has got so old. midfield is functional. front 3 are all decent players no question.

both teams are miles off city.

 

this after ht?... Wembley is always the same as service is atrocious.

you will most 10mins of second half if you dare try get anything at it.

 

If you look now at 55 mins there are still huge pockets of empty sets in the corporates
In drives me mad

 

Seeing Rashford and Pogba struggle shows what a poor Coach Maureen is. He maybe a good manager who can win things, but his ability to improve players and use a formation and system to fit the players he has is poor.
Its why he forces players, like Mata, out and buys ready made 30ish players. Because he has no idea how to coach and improve.

 

And that's why teams should have VAR referrals (set amount per half). Clear Handball and a Pen

 

Absolute 100% knew what he was at there.

Utd go for donkey ball now

 

It takes more than 15 mins to sit down at your posh table and order your filet mignon to your choosing and quaff down expensive plonk you know.

 

So passive Chelsea.

Relying on sitting deep and Utd not being good enough.

 

Sitter.

 

Working so far.

 

Utd finally turn to actual football

 

More or less
