Verts is starting with the mind games and why not if they back it up.
Not sure if i want Utd in the final. Maureen knows how to win them.
We also have a poor record against chelseabay Wembley.
Whatever happens I'm scared

It’s not strange. They’re back to their counter attacking best. Vardy’s in great form. Mahrez has stopped sulking and is in great form. With Sanchez, Trippier and Davies making some calamitous mistakes lately, it is worrisome.
That’s one game i pray Toby is back for and i pray we start Aurier and Rose.

"Now the players have got a taste of silverware, they're going to want to win trophies consistently. Can they do that at Tottenham? I'm not sure."

I mostly agree and it links into my point that people shouldn't just view their club through how the media portray it because then they'll never enjoy it i.e thinking we 'need' to win the FA cup or pochs era is invalid or that it'll solve our problems
But I'd be lying if I said I didn't care at all, whether we interact with it or not the media narrative around a club does affect it. Poch gets asked every week about whether we need to win a trophy and yes he deflects it well but even the players get asked about it so it must add to the pressure.
Also the diving thing, dele dives no more than loads of other players in this league but the constant media frenzy about it because of his profile now means he can't buy a penalty.
In an ideal world we could just ignore it but I don't think that's possible anymore, we definatly shouldn't let it control how we feel about our club though
Or Leicester....I've feeling on their patch they will do fragile Chelski.

Not just him, it's the whole team.

The easy answer to this unfair advantage business is to say we didnt want to be playing our home matches at Wembley, we would have much preferred to be playing at the London Stadium but that didn't work out for us.
As if.

Exactly, no-one speaks about United's route to winning the Europa League last season

Cheers for that riggi-just the confidence booster we need
I’m going to interpret that as meaning we are overdue a win

The VAR declined to overrule the referee because it was not a "clear and obvious error".

i think it was 2015 when Woolwich had Reading in the semi final and they only beat them a.e.t. Not too much moaning then.

now we have played there for a nearly a whole season, they would say it's an unfair advantage if we made it there for the next 10 semi's.
and Chelsea are due to use Wembley for 4 seasons. hopefully after the uproar that will happen this season if we do go on to win it, they decide Chelsea can't hire Wembley are the get stuck with sharing Fulham's ground
anyway on topic, I'd rather the easiest possible route to the final. as a kid I always dreamed of playing Utd in an FA Cup Final

Don't care, we’re good enough to beat everyone left. Time we went out and proved we’re a big club by beating whoever is in front of us & win the bloody cup!!!
