Huge occasion. Could salvage an otherwise horrific season. Two weeks to get a proper team ready for this.

Surely Diallo and possibly Shaw has to start after those subs today.

Onana
Dalot - Yoro - De Ligt - Maguire - Shaw
Ugarte - Casemiro
Diallo - Fernandes
Højlund
 
Does Mount have to start now?
 
For the love of Christ, don’t start 6 defensive players in the final. The team that finished this game should arguably be starting.
 
I’m going to start learning mandarin, because if we lose I’m out of here!
 
Come on United. Don't be the team that let Spurs win their first trophy in nearly 20 years.
 
recent form against Spurs hasn't been good, but I was saying the same with City before the FA Cup final....
 
Congratulations Spurs on ending the trophy hoodoo
 
So what is our best XI right now?

I just don't love that Casemiro/Ugarte midfield so can Mainoo work his way in there or has Mount done enough to drop Bruno deeper? Does Amad play as a 10 or as a wing back? I kind of liked the way he combined with Dorgu there.
 
This is massive.

Not confident, considering the fact that Spurs haven’t lost to us in 5 games and have beaten us thrice this season.
 
I'd honestly be surprised if we beat them, we haven't looked at it all season against them. Their midfield will dominate us and set the tone.

Still we hope, that's why we love the sport.
 
-----------------------Onana
--------Mazra-----de Ligt----Yoro
Amad-----------------------------------Dorgu/Shaw
-------------Ugarte-------Casemiro
------------Bruno----------Mount/Garnacho
--------------------Garnacho/Hojlund

Confident.
 
Please play an attacking team and not 7 defensive players! We are a different team when we do that.

I know things have been bad recently but you did win the FA Cup only 11 months ago. Hardly a hoodoo for United.
 
Vicario
Porro, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie
Bissouma, Bentancur
Johnson, Kulu, Son
Solanke

Will probably be our lineup. Richarlison, Tel or Odobert are all options out wide if Son isn't back in time but reports are that he should be.
 
Anyone but spurs and I’m confident we win it. There’s something about them I hate. Our form against them is bad this season
 
Our 2nd all English European final. 21st May too. Let's home we don't let this slip.
 
Onana
Mazraoui Maguire Yoro
Dorgu Casemiro Bruno Shaw
Amad Mount
Hojlund​

Hard to see beyond the balance of this to be honest. De Ligt with the injury, don't think he'll get himself in form ahead of Maguire. Bit hard on Garnacho but it's him or Amad as we need one off the bench, so has to be Amad I think. Mounts energy will make up for leaving Ugarte out, but think we need Bruno in deeper just for that added control and creativity.
