Does Man U have the under on 3.5 goals?

LOL on the first missed clear one-on-one the Luton keeper forgot where he was and tried his hardest to get a red card.

For as bad as United have been this year and today, it's just so much fun to read a whole bunch of whining posts here about them only to know you all watched in disappointment as they won.

Take a bow gents. You made it more fun.

LOL I don’t care what result they have right now, they’re in 6th. I find them amusing.

Life is too short to watch Luton v Man United—there are ways to know how **** United are without wasting time watching them play.

That 2nd Rasmus goal was a nice finish. Very instinctual.

United hate aside, I thought you guys caught a little life with the injuries in this match. One of Shaw or Maguire was definitely going to get red carded, same with Casameiro before he was subbed.

Oh for sure. United were pretty poor. But they aren't nearly there, so if poor is a win, then I'm all for it. They aren't a team of possesion though so this game looked a lot worse than it was. I think they always were just looking for the counter to finish off the game and would have if they had more quality on the pitch. They just aren't there yet. I saw the idea though, just bad execution.

Maguire 100% was going to find himself sent off if he stayed on. Shaw maybe, but he's a lot better player under pressure so who knows. Hopefully the appointment of a sporting director (pllllease finalize Ashworth) will start a much better focus on signings that make more sense not just for now, but for the future rather than bandaids.

Alright, now that the Luton match is out of the way, time for a cup final. Just enjoying the ride.

This is almost perfect—now I just need to see someone two foot Howe on the touchline.

Isn’t it fun battering these guys?

I really enjoy seeing their Champions League campaign this year being the only taste they’ll likely get for years. As an Arsenal supporter, I very much know the irrelevancy they could fade into, despite their wealth.

Annoyed at losing the clean sheet, but that goal was very much fresh legs against a team who played in Europe on Wednesday. I don’t think Willock’s header even went where he wanted it to go.

What’s even better is how much making the UCL f****d their finances and fan expectations.

Officials have completely ruined this final

Started watching late, just in time to see the VVD header ruled out. Classic case of "is there a reason we can disallow this goal" as opposed to their own mantra of clear and obvious. Just looking for reasons to make themselves more visible as officials.

I am very much enjoying Carragher near tears while he's complaining, though.

Chelsea’s goal may have been onside too. But we don’t know because for some reason we can’t get a good camera angle at Wembley. This country has no idea how to officiate a match properly.
