Such a young team - hardly surprising they froze a bit on the big stage.

I really like them, they have some really good players like young, niyech, traore Sanchez, but I thought they were very extra bad tonight united won it easy. I can't even remember them having a shot.

It depresses me how much Jesse Lingard has already won in his career for such a bang average player.

Talk about right place right time.

2nd or league cup and uefa cup? hmm
and absolute dross to watch, 32 goals less, 8 wins less.
Will take our season 100%
Not to mention that they have outspent us by 350 million net over the last 5 years to get this team and style!

I'm not sure I would give up the way we've played this season for the way UTD have, yeah they got silverware but we've got something special happening

His CB partner Sanchez maybe had the more eye-catching moments particularly the recovery tackle towards the end, but the best player on the pitch for me was De Ligt. Only 17 but really calm and assured both with the ball at his feet and with his defensive work. Never panicked when left one vs one with Rashford and martialled him well.

What special is happening exactly? Something special is wining trophies which is what they have done.

Last 12 months Utd have the FA cup, Carling cup, Europa league. We have nothing. I would give up 2nd for trophies.

Have you watched us this season?

Yes but the point as something special is happening and he wouldn't swap it. Well it must something truly special if he wouldn't swap it for a league cup and a UEFA cup.

But would you give up the way we play for the way utd do?
We all want trophies but this has been a fantastic season. Don't spoil it by being jealous. Just enjoy it and know that our time is coming. We have a good chance of winning the league next year imo.

Have some patience. We haven't got £500m to splash around aimlessly in the hope it eventually sticks. Throwing money around brings short term success but it's hollow. We have to build our way upwards the harder way and it's more satisfying when we do win trophies.
