    Asides the score line in the first game, Roma were good in the first half and at times running rings around United. We regrouped for the second half when we scored 5 goals.

    Their replacement goallie was a disaster and responsible for at least a couple of the goals we scored.

    I hope he plays again tonight.

    Huh? Roma were shite in the first half. We just had two moments of disaster.
     
    Pogba out of the final if he gets booked. He should be absolutely nowhere near the team

    Running rings round us is a big stretch.
     
    Hope people don't start the hysterics when we slow down this game with a professional display to avoid surprises and injuries.

    No he’s not. Previous yellows are dropped from the Semi’s on.

    James Cooper on Sky just said he was on a risk of suspension, that’s where I got it from. Hopefully you’re right and they’re wrong

    Never trust Sky! It’s 3 yellows for a ban and yellows are wiped going into the semi’s so Pogba would have to get sent off tonight to be banned.

    3 yellows = ban. The reason the cut off is after the QFs is they don't want YC suspensions in the final anymore.

    He got a yellow card against Granada. Are you sure it’s not QFs and onwards? 3 yellows in the semi final onwards makes no sense as it’s impossible without being red carded in one of the games.

    That's the point. UEFA realized that their finals were being ruined by top players getting suspended so they literally made it almost impossible to occur.

    That's the point. They don't want players suspended for yellow cards in finals.
     
    Yellow cards in away legs count as double so it is possible to get 3 over 2 legs without getting as red.

    NOBODY needs resting at this stage of the season!

    With a potential cup final and maintaining 2nd place in the Prem should be enough motivation for any player to appear in every remaining game.

    Rashford definitely does.

    Unfortunately, wanting to be fit only gets you so far. Players might be motivated but if anyone needs a pain killer or something like that to play tonight they should probably sit it out.

    Can we make 5 subs? If so, go full strength to see the tie out. Hopefully win the first half, make 3 changes at HT (take Rashford, Bruno, Shaw off) then make the last 2 changes halfway through the second half.

    Ensure we get to the final!

    Roma scored 2 past us without having stringed more than 60 passes together. It would be very sensible to not underestimate them and play a strong side. We can always hook our key players once the job is done.
    There's no point going playing our B side, going 3 goals down and then defending like mad demons for the last 20 mins.

    Go out, get the job done.

    They hit us on the break and got one lucky pen. I can’t see them chasing 4 goals and I can’t see us going gung ho. As much as they have a great record at home, they aren’t a brilliant attacking side either. We will make it dull and hope to get a breakaway goal.

    Agreed they are terrible. I expect us to slow the game down, not expend too much energy and get out of their with a low scoring game.
     
    Hopefully all the lovers of "fast paced football only" stay away from this. This is going to be boring.

    People will be in hysterical panic as soon as the first pass goes Astray.
     
    Had some PTSD last night thinking about the first half last week, go strong tonight and kill them off

    Do you realize how many people are actually going to take this as fact and actually going to spew it on here for a while now because they read that?
     
    I really want to see Bruno, Pogba and Shaw rested. Let the kids take this and see it out.
     
    Is there any reason we are playing at the same time as the other leg?

    It’s important to keep people informed.
     
    Closer we get to kick off the more convinced I am it’s going to be near full strength.

    Will probably be fairly strong to start but unless the first half is disaster I would expect a few to get the hook at half time. Bruno is definitely playing and Maguire won't rest but hope Rashford is nowhere near this.
     
    Appreciate there’s probably a thread elsewhere, but who do people genuinely want in the final?

    I think we’re better than both Arsenal and Villarreal, but I can just see us putting in an absolute garbage performance if it’s an all English final. We play safe and give too much respect to the English teams, it shows in our PL results.
