I speak too soon!

Unbollocks!

Get in Man Utd are piss poor

Toney does so well there

Toney has terrorised the United defence without finishing it off

Only the 31 attempts on goal for Brentford.

Manchester United have now faced more shots (193) in 2024 than any other PL club

I’m actually buzzing for the semifinal

Even Newport County created 17 chances against them.

You have to admit it’s been a fabulously entertaining PL season - the trope that it’s a boring, shooting-averse league just doesn’t hold water

Is this your way of conceding to the Shoooooooooot brigade?

It seems like teams don’t need the encouragement!

Watching MOTD- Isak took and scored two penalties against two different opposition keepers today. Can anyone find any other examples? Must have happened before I presume.

Who’d have thought that shooting at goal rather than trying to pass endlessly in the penalty area leads to more goals?

Doesn't the graph come down on the other side , goalkeeper errors are escalating?

Surely if/when Man City sweep them aside in the semi, Poch is out of a job?

It's in our best interest they fluke a win against city .. imagine beating united after being gifted a shot at actually winning the cup ?

I agree but I think City will steamroll them

Lot's of doom and gloom about Utd on Sky news currently, only assumption is a change of manager is likely.
Before or After, keep him in place please!!

Not a chance they get rid of him before the end of the season. Their new part owner courting several managers publicly is absolutely brain dead though, even as bad as Ten Hag has been.

Especially when it seems his preferred replacements are Southgate or O’Neil haha

What a goal Danny Welbeck

What a start!

How do Brighton find these players from nowhere before anyone else? Liverpool haven’t been able to cope with Adingra.

Just had a look and they signed him from Nordsjaelland years ago. Talent factory, ship some out for big fees and there’s another ready to take their place.

If Salah had a right foot he'd be dangerous

Liverpools press is terrifying at times, really glad we somehow ended up with Man Utd instead of them in semi’s

Salah can be a really frustrating player to watch , at times far far too greedy .. has to square that ball to Darwin

Well, that would be the natural selection.

Well past his best isn’t he, Salah.

Going back to last night, anyone notice how many fans jumped up and celebrated Mount's goal in the Brentford end? Saw a replay and there's loads, not even subtle either. Haven't heard of any trouble but I'd have been fuming.

A rare Van Dijk booking

Yeah I noticed that too watching the replay. Guaranteed that Club Wembley and the neutral areas will be filled with Man U fans in the semi final.
