Post-match discussion


Sat, 21 May 2016

Smalling looks guilty, embarrassed and relieved at once.
 
The way the game went I feel more relief than happiness.

Smashing goal by Jesse and I am glad we have won a trophy again. Three years is a long wait.

Bring on Leicester in the community shield!
 
Top feeling to end the season! If a season ever needed a boost it was this one! First proper trophy post fergie will lift a weight off the clubs shoulders as well.
 
Hopefully this trophy propels this group of youngsters onto great things.

Just like when we had Ronaldo/Rooney and we won the league cup. Fergie predicted that the taste of silverware would spur us on to win more.

Praying that similar happens now for us. What a finish by Lingard. Been here since he was a young kid. Amazing. Fergie said he would only make the first team when he is 23-24. He is going to be a dependable player for us for many years to come. Backbone.
 
De Gea not looking ecstatic enough. Mind clearly on Madrid.

The character shown by the players today was terrific. We hit the woodwork a few times, rode our luck and then had to cope with going down to 10 men. What a brilliant end to such a tense game. We earned this the hard way!

My same thoughts, I wish for it to be a rebirth and a catalyst.

Football has funny coincidences such as reoccuring fixtures and dates.

Fergies win in 1990 marked his Era against palace, hopefully this marks a second rebirth for next season with Mourinho having a long trophy laden tenure.
 
Glad to have the FA Cup again after so long! Good game as well and really happy for the club, we really really needed this. Bring on the crying palace fans!
 
The end of the match was played with 3 midfielders in the back four, and a right back as cb. :)
 
Nice to win it but does nothing to hide the sad state of our club.
 
A little random but is that the first time we've come from behind to win a game under LvG?
