FA Cup fourth round - Liverpool : 5th round - MUFC v West Ham

[Widow]

So Liverpool at home then!

Would have liked an easier game to rest a few players but we'll have to settle for the old enemy

Stockport/West Ham/Doncaster for the winner!

 

[Reapersoul20]

Should be an easy win. Happy enough.

 

[PoTMS]

Why is there another thread?

 

[Matt851]

Probably the last thing either side wanted but should be entertaining. Oh for a cup draw like spurs' this season

 

[Sultan]

Great draw!

I think we're now very close to matching the best teams on our day.

 

[Robin Your Persie]

Solskjaer doesn’t half get shafted in cup draws doesn’t he

 

[Hughie77]

Can you believe it. All those teams in it and they pull that draw out. It's at home wow, unbelievable, these cup draws are killing us a group of death in CL, out, Spurs get Brentford in league cup we get city, Europa league draw we get A Top Spanish side. It's going to be eventful this season. No resting players in that game.

Other thread is for the draw, this is for the match.

 

[gormless]

I mean, not an easy draw, but it’s always good to watch a United Liverpool game. Just wish I was able to watch it down the pub with my Liverpool supporting mate

 

[Sultan]

Why is there another thread?

That's a general thread. This can be just a discussion for United and Liverpool game.

 

[Rooney1987]

I don't hate this. We either knock the best team out or play less games.

 

[croadyman]

Looks like full strength team in back to back weekends against Liverpool then and our young talents will have to wait a bit for a chance to show what they can do

 

[Tom Cato]

I assume Manchester City drew Shantytown FC from the 14th tier.

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

Ole's cup draw luck is fecking terrible.

Ever since he's taken over, we get shit draws across every competition almost every time.

It's so annoying.

Especially when you look at the draws Mourinho and LVG got when they were here.

 

[McGrathsipan]

Cheltenham..... which I thought was a race track!!

 

[Fts 74]

We'll just have to beat them twice in a week then won't we!

 

[Mike Oxard]

We avoided City, so I’ll take it, but it’s the second worse draw. It’s to be decided on the day, so penalties if it’s a draw after 120mins. If we get to pens, I’d fancy us, but I don’t fancy us getting to pens.

 

[Widow]

And yet ANOTHER test for our lads!

For the first time in ages, two wins wouldn't be beyond the realms of possibility!

 

[Inigo Montoya]

Solskjaer doesn’t half get shafted in cup draws doesn’t he

Chelsea get Luton as well.

At least it’s their level I suppose

I generally don't see why people ask this question (unless you're a mod and it's, therefore, you job to manage the site)

 

[Hughie77]

Agree, if were top of the league I really wont mind what the result is, but beating them on Sunday is more important.

I’m not sure they’ll field a full strength side if they’re after the league and UCL

The positive being he's still managed the team to 4 semifinals despite unfavourable draws.

 

[DatIrishFella]

So we just have to beat them back to back?

Whats the big deal?

 

[tayside red]

great draw for us, we have the chance of progressing in the league and also knocking 'them' out of the Cup all within a couple of weeks...believe
lets see just how good we are or if we have been over achieving with this squad recently

 

[Sultan]

I’m not sure they’ll field a full strength side if they’re after the league and UCL

United versus Liverpool is always a final. Both clubs will very likely go full-strength.

 

[lsd]

Thats us out then least it stops us always losing in the semi finals

 

[Inigo Montoya]

I hope so just not convinced of it

 

[Renegade]

Wonder if people on here will be happy to lose this game like the City semi final game.

 

[Widow]

I'd take that but if we make them play a stronger starting 11 and compromise their CL game, even better!

 

[Sultan]

If a United fan is happy to lose any game they're not telling the truth. Unless of course, it helps Liverpool, City or Mourinho not winning a trophy.

 

[tomaldinho1]

Think they will have Spurs a few days after and we will have Sheffield United so can't see them going all out. Good draw for us.

 

[McGrathsipan]

We'll beat them in the league and lose the Cup.
I'll take that

Stockport/West Ham/Doncaster to follow!

 

[FrankDrebin]

Bring it on!

 

[Djemba-Djemba]

The positive being he's still managed the team to 4 semifinals despite unfavourable draws.

That's whats annoying.

In his semi finals he's had Chelsea, City twice and Sevilla in the europa league where they never lose.

He needs a shitty everton like Van Gaal got or a Hull like Mourinho got, just to break the jinx.

Stockport/West Ham/Doncaster to follow!

Exciting....

 

[Fts 74]

I prefer the big cup ties like this, give me this tie over Cheltenham any day

Stockport is where most City fans reside. Allegedly.
