    Yes. Lukaku is definitely playing. Even if he was half fit he'd still play I'm sure. It's just to keep Chelsea guessing.
    100% this. I've a glass ankle and have sprained it, damaged ligaments and fractured it several times. Lukaku was moving well enough for us to assume it wasn't that bad. A light sprain at most.

    2 weeks max he would've been out. Fully match fit in 3 weeks.

    Had a light sprain a month ago before our Sunday League season ended. Played a midweek and weekend match (stupidly) a week later even though I couldn't walk for a few days post injury. He'll be fine.

    Who cares? We will be playing low block style , so doesn't matter who is playing and who is not. Probably, only 2 player that matters is De Gea and Fellaini, rest all will be camped just outised box , so doesn't even matter.

    You really should start supporting another team if you feel this miserable. Feckin' hell.

    And you are acting like a 6 year old who has been given a toy by Mourinho.
    I've been critical of Mourinho, as has everyone else on this forum I think. Spouting negative things that haven't even happened are childish and unnecessary. Let's leave it there, no need to reply.

    Going to have to correct you here, “negative things that haven’t even happened”

    He’s played low block all season....so I don’t think his comment is that far off the mark.

    Went to Wembley for League Cup Final this year and to be honest was not really that fussed about the game until I got to the stadium when the occasion took over and I really enjoyed the game.
    Fully expect United to win tomorrow and then enjoy a good transfer window so start next season on a high.

    I'm not even talking about that part. Check his other comments in the Milinkovic-Savic transfer topic and others. Clearly has an agenda against Mourinho.

    Hoping Chelsea 'go for it' because I feel like that's how we'll see a decent performance from United going off this season.

    Definitely think Chelsea's best option is to give us the ball.

    I expect Chelsea to turn up unlike most of the season. It's just it luck. However, we will still beat them somehow. Penalties it may be.

    perhaps you should cite my particular post on SMS and reply in that thread then , not randomly go to other thread and sprout nonsense.

    I’m obviously not going to check in other threads to try and link what you are saying.
    But the point about his post stands for me, as for your debate across different threads, I obviously can’t comment on wether he has an agenda against Jose or not.
    I will take your word for it :)

    agree, hoping both teams turn up to play good attacking football......I can dream :)

    As the other guy said, for your own mental peace, you should support another team.
    This is not a criticism, btw.

    Watching football (or any sport), should have an entertainment value and if you are not entertained, why continue watching it?
    At least if you decide to support MCFC, you'll be happy with the team's performance and you will get some joy out of it.

    If CFC can score 1 goal against us, really early in the game, it should be a great match and I would definitely fancy us to win from there.
    If however, we go 1-0 up, then it'll become a major borefest.

    Don’t know about you or anyone else who just picks a team at random to
    follow/support. I had no choice, it was my heritage, as soon as I was born I was a red. It’s that simple.

    What does grip my shit is when people like you say rubbish like “go and support another team”

    Everybody, right or wrong, is entitled to an opinion if it is based on some sort of experience.

    So.....please stop that :)

    I feel we'll be better if they make the game and go out attack us. The way some games have gone of late, we're not very good at taking the game to others. May be totally wide of the mark of course and it's a far more open game.

    It depends on the mood of each camp. Conte does give the impression that he doesn't care but is it all a smokescreen?

    Close call but I'm still going for a Utd win on the basis that Jose knows how to win these games

    Excitement starting to build up. Probably the Friday beers after work.

    Think everyone needs to back the team to do it tomorrow. It won’t fix the problems but confident we can do it again.

    You are an angry man.
    And watching a football team which makes you even more angry/negative is not healthy.
    If you don't want to support another team, perhaps don't watch football until Jose leaves?

    I don't like it when we're big favourites, I really don't.
    Indeed.
    We were big favourites when playing against the relegation strugglers who beat us this season in the league.
    Hopefully, playing in Wembley, in front of a huge crowd will make our players understand that this is a huge game and they need to play hard.

    No. He likes to win finals and won’t do sentimentality.

    DDG played vs Spurs in the semis anyway.
    That was because Romero was injured. Romero is now fit, but he hasn't had enough game time, so JM should go with DDG.

    For some reason I don't feel confident at all. Chelsea despite all their struggles remain a very dangerous team with proven matchwinners. We cannot underestimate this. They might have had a poor result last match but it's not like we're entering the game with momentum either. Our last top game was vs Spurs almost 1 month ago. Since then we limped home in the PL and everyone's assuming this was our target since that game. It's never easy to just switch it on for a game so I am quite worried.

    Can't decide whether José will match Chelsea with three at the back or just go with the 433... I'm sure these players will start regardless:

    de Gea; Valencia, Smalling, Jones, Young; Matic, Herrera, Pogba; Sanchez

    Then it's two from: Lindelof, Lingard, Rashford, Lukaku.

    Hopefully Lukaku is 100%

    Uhh, I don't get what the FA Cup final has to do with masturbation. Or is it the memories of the college girls you'll be relying on...
    It's the whole package. Yes about the girls. I never wank over football. That would be disgusting.
