After ETHs speech yesterday, i'm feeling a win for Utd. What he said pretty much told the players, you will win this game.
He did say, "Eras, come to an end". And come to an end, they will. We can't have Man City winning the treble now, can we! Winning the FA Cup will stop the treble, which we, Manchester United, hold that honour dearly, and it will kick start a new era for Man Utd.
Looking forward to the game.

Yeah I’m not so optimistic. I hope more than expect I think.

As a neutral I just hope there's a shed load of goals
Talking the talk is easy, having the players who can walk the walk is a different ball game all together.
We're going to get schooled.

Hoping we and/or inter beat city, they don't deserve a treble.

@robfosters you may laugh at my post but, given what he has done for the team this season, it's not an automatic win for City. We have beat them, they have beat us, we have a well deserved break before the game, they may have one eye on the Champions league. If we get thrashed, fine, we got schooled, but even if we lose by a small margin, I will not have any complaints.
Eras, DO come to an end just like Utds did the season after SAF left. I think its times we started a new one. give it 2 seasons and we will be back fighting for the title and CL finals. Then Utd starts a new era.

It's a one off game but City have to be massive favourites. I still don't have total confidence in this United team. That 7-0 to Liverpool still hurts and shows how the team does not have the mentality required to beat the top teams, yet. I think we can trust in ten Hag to have them ready but too many times we start games slowly and lack intensity despite what the manager has demanded. Midfield is key and we can''t win with Casimiro and Eriksen unless he pushed Bruno right side and plays Eriksen in the 10 role, bringing in Fred to play in CM. The positives are that we've finished the season in reasonable form and therefore the mood should be decent plus Pep has to have 1.5 eyes on the Champions League. United need this more. Lets hope the players turn up.
The way some United fans are going on you'd think theres been some sort of revolution at United. This is a good season but given who you have played you should be in both finals...you should be in 3 really but you fluffed it in Europe.
Edit
My laugh for clarity is your first line making it out to be some awe inspiring Delia Smith style speech...

I don't know what you are on about. After I read it I said "oh captain my captain".
We did fluff Europa but thats why cup competitions are hard to win. You have to perform game after game and one bad performance can see you out. We should have been out of sight after the first leg against Sevilla instead we gifted them 2 goals and never turned up in the second leg. Theres loads of top teams that have an "easy" run to finals but still fall short.
If we win the two domestic cups and come 3rd in the league in EtHs first season that will be a fantastic achievement.
Looking forward to the FA cup Final on Saturday should be a good occasion. the game will be tighter then it looks I hope we do it but will be tough I hope Ten Hag can pull it off and it would be a unbelievable end considering where we were at the start of the season and will give us the platform for more going forward.

I'm going to be somewhere in France driving home. Hoping i can find a decent bar!

Already missing Martial, Antony is also likely not to play.
Hopefully Haaland gets injured within a few mins.

Martial is not really a miss though and Anthony is inconsistent so it’s not the end of the World. Great opportunity for Sancho to step up and stamp his authority on a regular starting place.
Expecting City to beat us today but you never know. Either way it’s been a decent season and something to build on.

I hope there's plenty of goals but I do think Utd are going to get hammered.

Man Utd have a team that is capable of beating City though. That is my dream.
Man City are just a vile team though. They are everything that is wrong with football. I know everyone hates United but if it was the other way around and Liverpool or Arsenal were playing this match. I would want them to win too.

Could say the same about many of the players. Would rather have the options.
