FA CUP FINAL ... Crystal Palace v Manchester United ... Saturday 21st May *** Spoilers ***

[FrankJH]

Utd score first (in the 1st half) then try and sit back and protect a lead (and fail dismally)

ie -basically do a Liverpool

Pretty standard lineup for us.

Only 5 players out of position. Fellaini an automatic pick despite his lack of footballing ability. I still expect us to shade this game but its unlikely to be a cracker.

I think we have done that enough times this season to call that our own.

in a final??

 

[Cosimo]

Some may say he was worth the wait (myself not being one of them)

Me neither, should have just had 'Abide With Me'.

 

[fez]

in a final??

Nah, just generally.

 

[Lord-Jaffa]

How can a team of professionals be so poor at set pieces. No one can cross the ball at all. :/

 

[Shamikebab]

Lvg master plan, start fellaini, take exclusively short corners

 

[fez]

I wonder if there is a commentary in english which won't be fawning over every pass Rooney makes however pedestrian.

 

[shipinabottle]

"morphing into Paul Scholes"

"fellaini excellent in the air"

Two falsehoods I truly hate that the media keep spinning

 

[Shamikebab]

Once again de Gea outplaying everyone, what a slide

 

[shipinabottle]

Wow what a **** decision.

 

[Shamikebab]

Wow great refereeing

 

[Nate75]

How strange.

World record ref bottling a decision ever?

 

[MooMoo444]

What on earth happened there

 

[el_dazza]

That's a truly appalling decision.

 

[Mr Jack]

Jesus! What a terribly piece of refereeing! I guess he just blew his whistle a bit enthusiastically in the first place.

 

[Trusty]

Bizarre.

 

[Robbo]

Dreadful refereeing.

 

[Fulax]

Best English ref.
