The FA CUP Third Round - 5/6/7 January *** Spoilers ***

[Malevolence]

What the **** has happened to Villa. We weren't anything special before the Liverpool game but we weren't this bad.

Bent starts, Bent scores! Now we just need Owen to poach a couple for us.

 

[No1newts]

At least the mackems are going out too

3-1 Chelsea. Chelsea very comfortable this half so far.

At least the mackems are going out too

What a consolation prize.

 

[Azza]

Wolves are going downhill fast!

HITS THE WOODWORK - Wigan 0-1 Bournemouth
Wigan's Angelo Henriquez, on loan from Manchester United, hits the bar with a near-post header from a David Jones free-kick. It was the substitutes' first real touch after coming off the bench. What a start that would have been for the 18-year-old striker.

Boo, would have been good for him to get a goal to give him more of a chance of starting some EPL games soon .

Apparently we look rubbish today without any shape for this

Just end 3-1 and no more fa cup...

 

[Cosimo]

Ba 4-1! Game over

 

[lemonkettaz]

Newcastle missing the only good players we have, get beat. Standard.

Hopefully cash is spent this month... A million hints from Pardew

 

[Beerbaron]

Ba double

Ba 4-1! Game over

It was game over at 3-1 (doesn't bode well for the league game in 2 weeks)

 

[Cosimo]

Lampard on for Ivanovic.

 

[explicit4u]

Lampard coming on for Ivanovic

Southampton could be in for a thrashing.

 

[antijoke]

Ba is a quality signing.

 

[lemonkettaz]

I miss Ba already.

MU Line Up:

De Gea, Rafael, Evans, Vidic, Smalling, Buttner, Scholes, Cleverley, Kagawa, Welbeck & Chicharito

Bench: Lindegaard, Ferdinand, Valencia, Giggs, Young, van Persie, Macheda.

Pretty strong line up, looking forward to seeing how it goes, not sure who is going to be playing wide out of Rafael/Buttner or if it's going to be a 3-5-2 with Rafael & Buttner both wide or if it's a 4-4-2 with Rafael wide right and Kagawa wide left. Or if it's 5 at the back..

I would have preferred it if it was more of a recognised system but lets see how it goes...

Bench is pretty strong, have RvP to come on if it's going bad and Macheda to come on if we're doing well and watch him flap around for a while.

 

[Beerbaron]

Ba is a quality signing.

Chelsea sell an average player for £12m and buy a good striker for £7m. Great piece of business.

 

[Cosimo]

It was game over at 3-1 (doesn't bode well for the league game in 2 weeks)

It was over at 2-1 but I prefer to relax at 4-1. Less than two weeks for the home game. I'm looking forward to it.
