Carabao Cup Final Man Utd v Newcastle ** Spoilers ** [26th February 2023]

[Converge]

Woohooo! First ETH trophy, may it be the first of many in the coming years

How is that not a red Guy has sprinted over and attacked him

 

[Robbo]

Fantastic.

Not the best performance but fairly solid on the whole. Newcastle were good but had no cutting edge at all.

 

[bayo000]

Easy

 

[robfosters]

1 down 3 to go

Think this is as good as it gets for you this season.

 

[Shamikebab]

Easy victory in the end. Got a nice big break of....3 days to celebrate it now.

You’ve been the better team today where it doesn’t matter. That’s the difference.

I don't see it personally. Utd have the better players, on better form, and have played better.

The only reason you are even in this final is because of that 250 billion. If Ashley was in charge you would have been knocked out by a league 2 club.

And your team won because your last minute sub cost more than our entire defence combined. With world clas players who cost more per week to pay than three or four of ours together.

Newcastle are very overrated imo.

Got two whole weeks at the end of March, players won’t know what to do with themselves

Hard being in everything.

Where you getting the 250 billion from.

Casemeiro is absolute class. Plays the right way as well. Plays hard, but no theatrics, shakes the officials' hands, thoroughly likeable footballer. Just a shame he plays for United!

 

[robfosters]

Haha it’s the World Cup geezer!

 

[McGraw]

To be fair, I thought Newcastle looked the much sharper team but didn't do anything with it in the final third. I'm sure part of that is the sheer intensity of games United have played.

Newcastle have been on wind down since their semi and United had a massive game last Thursday.

Am pretty sure the majority of players shake officials hands at the end. Odd.

Good game shame Newcastle couldnt get a goal at least could have made it bit of a spectacle.

Great to see for Sir Alex in the crowd aswell

 

[Mekrel]

Maguire doesn't look too happy, compared to Wout shaking his fist celebrating with the crowd.

And your team won because your last minute sub cost more than our entire defence combined. With world clas players who cost more per week to pay than three or four of ours together.

Shock horror that is what wins you trophies. It is just hilarious that Newcastle fans are claiming poverty as some sort of David Vs Goliath yet you have spent 300 million plus in the last year and that is the reason why you got to the final this year.

 

[Calpol]

Don't really know what to say about that. I didn't really enjoy the game. It was scrappy and we were relatively poor but that's a sign of EtH having made a huge impact on the mentality of the players. We didn't allow Newcastle to out compete or bully us. Canny from the manager to close the game out with the subs. It made for a poor spectacle but it's great achievement for the team. Unfortunately it might resolve the Glazers to hang around and I'd rather they were gone and win nothing.
