Smash them
Hope we batter them
Long way to go til the final. Hopefully the squad is mostly fully intact
I'll love it if we beat them.
We need to win this for the sake of the sport
Bruno to score the winner, but which Bruno?
I'd usually be stressed but man, if we have Casemiro, Martinez/Varane and an inform Rashford I'd put us against anyone.
Loathe this Newcastle side so I hope we humiliate them. In reality, it’ll probably be a close and cagey game. Can’t wait!
Forget getting bought by a state, we're playing one in the final
6 games before the final. And all are important…..February is an actioned packed month 
No doubt they'll be super Eddie howes tactics of diving and time wasting from minute 1.
Need to smash these.
Need to smash these.
Hope we smash them to shut up the newbie jebends that have started infiltrating.
Busy February. Important between now and the final then we get no injuries/suspensions.
Part of me feels it will be a cagey game

The feck are those things on Newcastle's crest? Seahorses?
Man utd vs a nation state...... I like the sound of that. No one we can't beat right now
Inbred geordie women
Roll over these cnuts.
Saudi flag is wrong in OP.
This will be a terrible watch unless we manage to score 2 early. The biggest cheats in PL and get a free pass because they have a young English manager. Rotten team and owners of a club I once had a soft spot for

Going to be a very tough game. For all complaints about them they are a very good side. Think if we can score first then we have a great chance of doing them but if they can make it a scrappy game then its anyone's final. They also have half the schedule we do before the game which will help them. Should be a great game. Two teams looking for that trophy win to propel them onwards.
What is the KO time?
Good thing you cant win a final 0-0. Maybe they might play football at some point.
No i'm joking. They're clearly going to shithouse their way to penalties and maybe, possibly a fluky goal in between the endless time wasting.

Time to put these smug bastard back in their place.
They ain't even the entertainers anymore.
They ain't even the entertainers anymore.
We’ve got a jam packed schedule leading up to this. Hopefully we can get through it unscathed and keep the winning momentum going. I really want us to hammer this lot.
We have 6 matches before the final, they have 3
Come on boys!
Come on boys!
19:30 UAE time. 15:30 UK.
Feels weird having most of the football world on our side for this one
Cheers.
Newcastle are the perfect cup team though.
Thanks, mate.
You know, I wouldn't be writing such titles considering we are up for sale Could be Qatar vs Saudi Arabia this time next year.
Could be Qatar vs Saudi Arabia this time next year.Newcastle will play for penalties from minute one
Guimares suspended for this right?
Nope.
Edit: he won't.
Just don't let them spend money and we'll win this
I will say that we have beaten a better team in the semis more comfortably than they did a worse one but they'll be very very up for this.
