On one hand the away games at Elland Road will stir up some nostalgia of bitter rivalries past, but the thought of losing to them? *shudders*.

Absolutely stunned that Arsenal just bundled City out of the FA Cup. Out of the four teams that were left I figured City were the only team in a position to take the Cup seriously. Chelsea and United are busy fighting for top 4 and Arsenal are flat out trying to stay in the Europa League. City have 2nd wrapped up and don’t need to make the league a priority. I really thought the Cup was virtually theirs as everyone else would rotate their squads in the cup games. (I’m expecting two heavily rotated lineups for the other semi tonight).

COYG!! How do we play so well against the top 2 teams but then lose to our major rival in the NL derby & lose to Brighton earlier aswell though. I'm willing to give Arteta a good amount of time, looks like he wants to change the Gunners & the way they play.

That was poor. Even for a rotated squad that was poor. Squad depth is a joke, it NEEDS to be addressed or forget about challenging top 4 next season. That was De Gea’s worst game for a while, should be under legit pressure now. Lucky it was only the FA Cup and not the top 4 chase. Also Jose did us a solid today. Cheers Spurs.

Time to cash in to PSG or some cashed up club and play Henderson

no one elses fault but uniteds

psg can pay those wages though

Never said it wasn’t. It’s like the Sanchez situation. Bone headed decision made by bone headed club management. The sooner change is made at the top, the better.
I’ll be surprised if PSG make a move for him, especially with how he’s going now.

They also didn’t have a ready made replacement in Henderson waiting in the wings, and he was still semi decent back then.

Hindsight’s great ain’t it?

united could have sold him for whatever they wanted to and signed whoever they wanted to

becker cost 65, you could have gotten ter stegen, oblak ect

i dont like kicking people when they are down, but this is just highlighting how bad uniteds player succession has been for a long time

LOL Bull**** hahaha.

Anyway. We desperately need new owners who give a **** about football and not just the bottom line and a director of football.
