Good performance from the boyz, despite allowing Newcastle the consolation goal, which kind of took the gloss off the result...
So, it's gonna be Arsenal in the final, if Utd perform to their potential then there's no reason why we can't beat them for the fifth time in a row...
:lol:
woohoo another arsenal united final , i can bearly take the excitement
Newcastle was again very poor. They looked a "bit better" in patches in the 2nd half, but they rarely could think about creating space for each other. Robert never made any decent crosses either, which took Shearer out of the game. Shearer also didn't win many headers when the ball was hoofed up to him. Gary Neville had an easy ride as Robert never tracked back. Poor Babayaro had Neville and Ronaldo running riot.
So much work needs to be done in the summer now. I think Souness has had his touch of making things worse. We've lost Bellamy and Bernard, and we will lose Robert and Kluivert too. Perhaps it’s for the best, but I've been optimistic in the past.
Oh dear is all I can say.
5th time in a row, what you talkin about? We beat you in the Community shield for a start! Henry keeps scoring hat tricks on his comeback from injury (unlike that useless Dutch lump!), so hopefully he'll be back for the Chelsea game on Wednesday and then make another comeback from injury on the day of the final! If Vieira plays like he did in the semi, and against Liverpool in the final a few years back we'll certainly dominate the midfield.Quote:

The Charity Shield doesn't count...
:lol:
i laughed my arse off.
id be gutted if i was a newcastle fan cos the scum werent exactly brilliant today newcastle were shite had no passion at all the scum had time an space a pick a pass everytime nobody was closin em down, sounness must be fumin :lol:
cum on :clap: :clap: :clap: , murdered them,
na i feel sorry for newcastle theyve got lazy players :lol: :lol:
So basically any game where Man U didn't win doesn't count then? Cos it sure aint 5 in a row however you look at it! 3 in a row if you don't count the shield.Quote:

And then there was the Highbury clash in early February, Vierra making a fool of himself before a ball had even been kicked. Arsenal were definetly not at their best on the night but Utd took full advantage and deserve praise for the performance. If the Cup Final is half as entertaining then we're in a for a cracker. I just hope Utd can retain the Cup and save our season...

The Man U players deserved a talking to after the OT game, especially Neville! Arsenal should win the cup I reckon, time to get some pay back! Man U have had their share of success, Arsenal have won silverware for the past 3 seasons running, unlike anyone else, so it's us who needs the silverware!
We won the prem last season, not just the cup to 'save the season', how many seasons in a row need saving before you say expectations were too high? But still, let's just see what happens, may the best team win, haha. And we all know who that is of course!! ;) :lol:
yeah man utd
Nope, guess again!
well done to the mancs, you had better beat the arsenal scum.
although 11 blind men with no legs could have beaten the toon at the moment.
Sadly John is right.Quote:
