For the neutrals, the game had almost everything - Utd apparently coasting and then Coventry get one back, then another and then the equaliser in added time, and then just when you thought they’d completed the impossible, VAR (unfortunately correctly) came to Utd’s rescue and they held their nerve for the penalty shootout.

Ten Hag rejected the idea that they day had been an embarrassment for his expensively assembled squad... [-] "That would be crazy," he said. "You need tools to manage this. With all the injuries, we don't have many tools."
Hmm, I beg to differ! :laugh: :laugh:

Ten Hag is such a clown. He's angry about the comments of his team by the media.
Ten Hag: “The reaction, the comments after Coventry game… that was a disgrace”.

“That was embarrassing from you. It is the comments. Top football is about results, we made it to a final and we deserved it not only by this game but also the other games”.
"Deserved it". :roll:

FA Cup final day. 3pm kickoff here so doable for you good folk over there. It's an easy, easy city win but a little more intrigue in the game now we know it's Ten Hag's last.

That definitely falls in the category of too many City players still looked hung over and tactially, Pep got it wrong.

If Doku was on from the start, City would probably have won.

Does Grealish still play?

So, after all that, United have had a better season than everyone but City. :?

Chuffed for them.

Just to prove that miracles do sometimes happen - will it save Ten Hag?

FFS, I've been waiting for ages for the results to come in - did JJB or BG predict correctly? The page had a series of 0s.

:idea: Then I realised, everybody had got the result totally wrong, and I think I'm the first player on the Forum to win the league and cup double :D - unless somebody tells me otherwise.

More importantly (to me), I've won the Plymouth Argyle league as well :dance:

Superbru is still churning away with the results of the FA leagues. I guess later today all results will be visible.
