Quick Stat - United haven't won the F.A. Cup in a decade come the final this May.​

​

 

[2 man midfield]

Win. Please?

 

[RonaldoVII]

Hopefully our cup form should see us through...

Sounds like we might have to do it without Rooney and Van Persie, though.

 

[rcoobc]

Opening day of the season requiem please

 

[LawCharltonBest]

United 8-0 Swansea

 

[Eyepopper]

Is it not a bit early for this Adz?

 

[Maciej]

Opening day of the season requiem please

Good times, some results from that day and van Persie's two goals won me 250 PLN.

 

[Hernandez - BFA]

Is it not a bit early for this Adz?

It's on Sunday...? I assume you assumed this was the league match - alas, this is the FA CUP.

There's a slight chance, I'm referring to an 'in' joke that Adz will get

Oh snap, apologies.

 

[Adzzz]

I got clearance...

 

[Backrow Singer]

More games for us, isn't it. Not sure we have the squad to cover them all. All I will say is that the league needs to be top priority.

 

[Havak]

I don't even know where to start... Just hope we win this and get some momentum going again. But the way I see it now, we'll do OK this month but not beat Chelsea, we'll be as far off from the top four as we are for a while now yet. I don't think an F.A Cup run, even though we haven't won it for ages, will take any sting out. We need to be in the Champions League so I'd rather focus on the league and Champions League...

 

[Sandikan]

we all know this is a difficult year, so with each bad result, sit back and be glad there's another game so soon.

FA Cup home game against a struggling 2nd season Swansea. Gets things going again.

 

[bosnian_red]

De gea
Fabio Evans Vidic buttner
Young Carrick fletcher kagawa
Welbeck Hernandez

Evra needs to be rested, and would like to see Fabio at right back actually. Who knows it might work. Sad that apart from evra missing and resting januzaj, this is probably our strongest lineup taking into account injuries I just hope we win.

 

[Sassy Colin]

So we are playing on Sunday afternoon & League Cup on Tuesday.

Shitty playing on Saturday Morning & League Cup on Wednesday.

Nice scheduling, good fecking grief...

 

[ItsEssexRob]

Start of a grueling period for you guys, but its a cup so I can see you nicking this 2-0.

 

[togg]

well...if we lose against Swansea...goodness knows what this site will be like!

 

[Big Papi]

Quick Stat - United haven't won the F.A. Cup in a decade come the final this May.​

​

The final this year is May 17th, so we'll win it five days before the decade is up!

 

[Van Piorsing]

That stronghold called Old Trafford can defend itself even from Manchester United. Time to change that.

Hard to understand why we look more like a team when it's cup time. Change of priorities ?

 

[Eric'sCollar]

Massive day for Moyes. Could take so much pressure off but could also pile so much more on.

 

[Sassy Colin]

The final this year is May 17th, so we'll win it five days before the decade is up!

Would make a nice birthday present, my birthday's on the 18th

 

[Jaap]

We'll only win one of the games v Swansea - which one should it be?

 

[Devil may care]

We can't go too weak with this one but having the League Cup semi just two days later makes things difficult for Moyes as we are stretched thin to begin with.

De Gea

Smalling
Rio
Evans
Buttner

Fletcher
Anderson
Carrick

Welbeck
Hernadez
Young

We must play the best team in this match........first of all to win and to avoid a replay in the week before the Chelsea game

I don't want to say a "B-Team" in Sunderland because we have a 2nd leg at Old Trafford

But like said no game during a week would be very good for us (espcially before the Chelsea game)

There are also some rumours that the team will fly to Dubai for 5 days (after the Swansea league game) if we win against Swansea in this FA-Cup game

 

[Edgar Allan Pillow]

----------- Lindegaard ----------
Smalling -- Rio -- Evans -- Buttner
-------- Carrick -- Fletcher ------
--- Young -- Kagawa -- Zaha ----
----------- Wellbeck -------------

Should be ideal for Kagawa. Zaha, Young, Kagawa & Wellbeck are all felxible and can interchange giving a more fluid attack.

 

[SirFergie]

No Smalling at right-back for Christ sake...

 

[Jaap]

De Gea; Rafael, Evans, Vidic, Fabio; Fletcher, Cleverley; Januzaj, Kagawa, Nani; Welbeck

 

[Sassy Colin]

When is Nani due back?

 

[Havak]

Would like to see something like:

de Gea
Rafael Ferdinand Evans Fábio
Fletcher Carrick Cleverley
Rooney Kagawa
Welbeck
--
Lindegaard; Smalling; Anderson, Giggs, Valencia, Januzaj; Hernandez​

However, I expect Buttner and Young to be involved.

 

[Ole's_toe_poke]

1-0 to Swansea, Valencia O.G.

 

[Gerald G]

[KiD MoYeS]

The league is a write off so look forward to all our cup games now. Hopefully we can progress far and maintain an interest.

 

[2 man midfield]

----------De Gea-----------
Rafael--Evans--Vidic--Evra
-------Carrick-Fletcher----
Zaha------Kagawa---Welbeck
------------Rooney------------

I'd love to see something like this.

 

[Backrow Singer]

De Gea
Rafael - Ferdinand - Evans - Fabio
Carrick - Fletcher
Zaha - Januzaj - Kagawa
Welbeck.

 

[Madthinker]

De Gea
Rafael - Ferdinand - Evans - Fabio
Fletcher - Carrick - Cleverley
Kagawa - Rooney - Januzaj
Welbeck.

Am I missing something? That's 12 players.

 

[KiD MoYeS]

Am I missing something? That's 12 players.

4-3-3-1, even Moyes would be able to win with that.
