United should respect the FA Cup imo. It's always there to win and less taxing than a Europa campaign . I'd go for a weakened side tomorrow but start Bruno (rest him vs Sheff Utd)
SAF stopped giving af about it after the club World Cup thing in 2000. Like I can’t even remember winning it with him him in charge since I started watching
edit: won it 4 times in his first 13 years...and only once in his last 13 years

Yep. All I remember from 2009-2013 was losing to Leeds early and beating Liverpool in like the 3rd round. My fav english cup memory under Fergie was the league cup semi vs City
I just really don't want Ole to try in the Europa. With these congested fixtures it's going to ruin someone's season

Nah I don't think its fair to say that.
There was the ridiculous game against Portsmouth where we got properly done in 08. Where Rio ended up in goal. Absurd game, and we were on for the treble. He was fuming all of that one.
Lost the final on penalties to Arsenal in 05 after being on top of them the whole game.
He did a rotate a ton though and gave chances to youth in those games. Often backfired because lower teams just turn up in those games. But I dont think its fair to say he stopped giving af about those cup games. They're just high variance.
@Mamba How we did not win this

yeah would love an FA cup win above europa league. the LVG win I cant remember a single thing about it that team was such a snooze
in FM I just rebuilt united with this team for 21-22 season:
de gea
Marco kana (wonderkid from belgium) - maguire - varane (RM put him on market) - Mendes (wonderkid from sporting)
Pogba-Camavinga
Sancho-Bruno-Rashford
Lautaro
Binned every single other player pretty much. Net spend came to only 50M

Was thinking the same. Joy to watch. The incisive forward passing, fast tempo, everyone working hard to win back the ball, and the near telepathic link up play. Thats what I wanna see from us, carving teams open creating chances.
Crazy how big a difference Rashford made on the left he’s really pinning Trent back to stop Liverpool from controlling the game on the flanks

Disappointed we didnt play him off the left in Anfield. Clearly his best position

Great f***ing build up
how was first 75 mins lol?
Very good we dominated the majority of it. Mctominay and Pogba wasn’t really working as expected and we would of done better with Fred or Matic there but Donny put a decent shift in and Rashfords been the most dangerous player on the field
Williams is Blackett/McNair tier. Pool were prolly missing Sakho and them watching that performance
