Lawrensen is so bitter towards us - we are the team that came from behind (7 to 18 leagues) to surpass his Liver team in Leagues and thay haven't won one since 1990, not even one PL!

He can't stomach that.

 

[Judge Red]

Hey, the sun is out and it’s perfect FA Cup final weather. Except because of the Wembley roof and kick off time, it’ll all be in shadow anyway.

 

[Mr.Plow]

Had a dream we had no faith in our current squad so we ended up brining Park, Scholes, Rio out of retirement and Rafael back for this game.

 

[Kidders]

Any advise on where to watch it in sunny Tenerife ?
I'm in Costa Adeje btw

 

[ZAGREB RED]

Think this will be tight, possibly even ET and penalties Players will be drained, regardless, it's going to be hot on the pitch, 21C in London at KO according to the BBC so that will probably be even warmer at pitch level.

 

[GM K]

All hyped up for this. Jose may not give you Cinderella football but the guy is a magnet for trophies once he reaches finals. He is tailor made for this. Let's go United!

Agreed, and I can't stomach him. He comes across so boring and biased.
The BBC should've got rid of him years ago.

Martial is tearing them apart today , 4-1

If Lukaku is fit and we're leading, Martial will be lucky to play five minutes. Rashford, Fellaini and Darmian are my bets for the subs.

Walk down to Fanabe theirs loads of bars which show games on the seafront there mate.

 

[tenpoless]

We'll win this one.

I like that. The Magnetic One.

Come on United!

 

[Canagel]

I'm praying that Martial has a good game and scores today. It would really be a nice way to end the season after the all the negativity and speculations. Would prefer if he scores the winner instead. 2-1

 

[pocco]

I'm not expecting Martial to see much game time today, if any. Him bring injured last week only makes it more unlikely.

 

[GeorgieBoy]

Chelsea are going into this with no confidence. Come on Reds!

 

[RedPed]

Is it 5.15 yet???

 

[Organic Potatoes]

Is it 5.15 yet???

Yeah, like four days ago.

 

[Strats]

Day drinking is on. Cheers, lads.

 

[Catt]

Feeling nervous... Too early for beers though, so I'm going for a walk to the store and not by car.

Are you back yet or should we start to worry?

 

[Catt]

People drink during the day? What us this!?

You have also British Sport Pub in Puerto de la Cruz (I watched it there when I was in Tenerife, loads of English people), but since you are in Costa Adeje this one will probably be better for you.

 

[Jim Beam]

Are you back yet or should we start to worry?

I am back! No need to worry, beers are in the fridge!

 

[tombombadil]

Going to be in Kuala Lumpur when the match kicks off, with an early morning flight to Heathrow. Does Sky Go app work in Malaysia?

Well, not sure about the Sky Go app and don't know how familiar you are with KL or if you have some free time to watch it.

Just thought I'd share some of the many places you can drop by that will be showing it.

First option are "mamaks" which are indian muslim restaurants that normally have big screens with sports subscriptions. You can just ask the owner if he is showing the game later to be sure. Just grab a cup of iced tea and sit and watch to your hearts content.

Second option would be one of many sports bars around town where you can do the usual.

Third option would be to check if your hotel room has the sports subscription or if the hotel bar is showing it.

Fourth option is if you are stuck in the airport for a layover, you could check out if the airport bar is showing it.

 

[12OunceEpilogue]

Getting that cup final fever. Excited, nervous, worried all at once.

Come on United.

 

[K2K]

Remember the 2007 final.

A complete bore ending up with that Drogba heartbreak.

 

[Adisa]

Hope we don't wait till we are behind before we start playing.

 

[Class of 63]

Dunno, it's not like me at all, i'm usually like a kid looking forward to Christmas for the week before, but no doubt i'll get up for it when they sign "Abide with Me", or there's a goal, or a near miss at either end in the first 10 minutes, but at the minute, nothing

 

[Tosicsleftpeg]

Can see the look on Meghan's face "will we start fellaini?" As she says her vows

 

[Bestietom]

£20 on both teams to score and United to win 4/1.

 

[breakout67]

Can see the look on Meghan's face "will we start fellaini?" As she says her vows

She supports United?

Who is this Meghan, is it somebody that posts on the forum ??

I don't believe Lukaku is from the players who can have a good game after so much time outside the pitch

 

[GM K]

The state of the caf this evening of we lose. I can see new threads like, 'Your favourite candidates to replace Jose'; 'Conte for United?'; 'Was LVG really that bad?'; etc.

 

[Strats]

People drink during the day? What us this!?

Since i'm such a heathen, Christ will take a shite on my head.

 

[jderbyshire]

Do we reckon same line up as the semis?

(With Martial/Rashford in for Lukaku if he's not fit?)

 

[Raw]

The atate of the caf this evening of we lose. I can see new threads like, 'Your favourite candidates to replace Jose'; 'Conte for United?'; 'Was LVG really that bad?'; etc.

Just imagine if Liverpool win the CL too

You're not wrong - Puerto de la Cruz is over an hour away from Costa Adeje. Kidders - you are around 10 minutes from Playa de las Americas, go there and you will struggle to avoid the game, it will be on in every pub.

So Jose confirming that De Gea will start then. Right call, obviously. No way Romero should be starting this one. Nothing against him - decent keeper - but you should be playing your best in the final.

I was stunned when he left De Gea out of the Europa league final.I mean in a way it shows the belief and the loyalty that he had towards Romero,and Romero didn't put a foot wrong in the final,but it was completely unnecessary to leave out our best player for such a seismic game....

 

[Nikelesh Reddy]

I don't expect to see him in a United shirt again...I think he"ll be gone in the summer...

It's not uncommon for managers to have cup keepers and league keepers.

Romeo earned the right to start the game. Nothing unnecessary about it. Ddg only starts today because Romero is only just back from injury.
