Big day today.
No no no, Easter Sunday is still 6 week before us
Big day today.
It's so mad, the players had a huge game against Barcelona on Thursday night, wouldn't have gone to bed until long after midnight with the adrenaline, then get one day of rest, then next day travel down to Wembley, then the match on Sunday. I'm crossfaded but that just seems like such a toll on the body and mind. If we had 2 days more between the games, I'd be feeling super confident about this. As it is, I am a bit worried about Newcastle's energy levels compared to ours but not worried about them on a football level.
That's my worry too. There is no way we can maintain the same intensity as Newcastle especially after playing a game 2 days ago!

Maguire has been talking a bit much, I have a horrible feeling he might start.
I just think we'd blow there defenders away with our quick movement especially the big 3 at centre half and left back. They wouldn't like Garnacho in behind.

Yep! It's best for all of football that we win.You guys need to win. Can't let these geordies get any kind of momentum with winning things.
De Gea, Dalot, Varane, Martinez, Shaw, Casemiro, Fred, Bruno, Antony, Weghorst, Rashford.
Sancho and Garnacho excellent bench options should rashford get moved centrally. I think if Fred and Casemiro nullify Guimares, you take a huge amount out of a Newcastle team that already struggles to create. Breaking them down is the real challenge, hopefully they have some jitters with new GK and while theyre resolute they arent an especially fast back line.
I'm not confident but I'll optimistically go for 3-1 United

There is of course the possibility that ETH doesn’t want to risk Varane and will play Maguire instead. Two intense matches in a short time is not ideal for him, however Maguire and Martinez would probably struggle with their speedy forwards so I don’t think Maguire is an option.Maguire has been talking a bit much, I have a horrible feeling he might start.
He's behind Lindelof and Shaw as backup, the only chance he has of starting is if the four ahead of him pick up illness on the way to Wembley.Maguire has been talking a bit much, I have a horrible feeling he might start.
I bet their tactics will involve time wasting till it gets to penalty and hope for a 50:50 chance to win it as opposed to 70:30 without penalty shootout.
I think Rashford is not injured. At 2:05 is his car
The same car as this one:
What a knob, remember him rolling back onto the pitch injured at OT.Kieran Trippier: We’re gonna cheat, cheating is great, Diego Simeone taught me how to be really good at it.
I really, really hope we batter these fecks today.

Yeah but they spent some time with Simeone so it's fine?The brazenness is astounding, we all accept it happens to some degree and expect ourselves to do it a bit. But to celebrate it as a virtue and for it t be your main game plan … get in the bin.
Does anyone know who the referee is today because I feel like this is the sort of article that should be posted to themKieran Trippier: We’re gonna cheat, cheating is great, Diego Simeone taught me how to be really good at it.

This interview is part of his shithousery. He is trying to frustrate ETH and players in advance, and get them to focus on the wrong things. When they start to disrupt the game, waste time, etc it will have extra psychological effect if we start to be concerned about it already now.Kieran Trippier: We’re gonna cheat, cheating is great, Diego Simeone taught me how to be really good at it.

Could do, but could also alert the referee to what they get up to as well. It could backfire. Also not sure if it is in the clubs interest to go from Lucky Old Newcastle being bought to Cheating Newcastle the Scumbags.This interview is part of his shithousery.
