Cambridge United vs Manchester United - FA Cup 4th Round - 19:55

[Stevencc]

Van Gaal has come out and said that the 4-4-2 diamond formation leads to him "twitching his ass" but as Smalling and Evans are out injured (again) he may be forced into using it in this game.

 

[DarkSithLord]

Really Looking forward to this one! I think this is going to be closer than many think. Cambridge are a decent outfit and we arent exactly free scoring. Also this is one of the very few grounds that Alfreton can say they have a better record at then United! Having won 6-3,3-0 and 1-0 on their 3 visits! Can United pick up their first win at the Abbey?

Gonna say 2-1 to Manchester United.

 

[mase]

If he does, you will tonk them.

If he doesn't, you'll looks shakey and scrape a 2-0 again a la Yeovil

Falcao to start again? He just needs a run of games to start finding the goals.

 

[Arbury]

Looking forward to tonight, hopefully we can give a good account of ourselves, the pitch will help Man U out, it's not going to be the best they've played on but it ain't no field mill either, should suit their passing game anyway.

KTF.

 

[Stevencc]

That's the plan.

 

[ForeverUnited]

Both BBC Games so far on a friday night have been a smaller club knocking out a bigger club. Warrington and then, Blyth hopefully this will continue tonight.

 

[Posh Hammer]

I feel indifferent to this match.

Normally its nice to support the underdogs, especially against United.

However, it would be reasonably funny to see a score pushing double figures.

 

[Christian Slater]

I think this'll be similar to the Yeovil match. The ball will be in the air and bobbling for the majority of the game and we'll struggle to get a command of the play. A scrappy, boring affair. 1-2.

 

[Destruction]

United will win by at least four.

I'd rather stick pins in my eyes than watch it.

 

[Jackinky]

Cambridge to be ahead... Briefly, before United get 3 to make it 3-1.

 

[This Charming Mike]

Bet Luke Chadwick has been in demand this week.

Dion Dublin has pipped him I reckon.

At least Di Maria's not upfront.

Subs - Valdes, McNair, Rafael, Shaw, Fletcher, Herrera, van Persie

 

[Posh Hammer]

Strong line up! Steve, your boys better not let me down tonight!

 

[mase]

What does Herrera have to do to get a start?

 

[Stevencc]

Strong line up! Steve, your boys better not let me down tonight!

Don't worry boss, we're on the case

 

[Posh Hammer]

Don't worry boss, we're on the case

By the way, good to see you back in the Sheep game! Were you missing from the last few seasons or am I being completely stupid?!

No you are quite correct, I'm back with a vengeance now though!

I think it'll be this...

De Gea
Jones Carrick Rojo
Valencia Fellaini Di Maria Blind
Januzaj
Wilson Falcao​

 

[Ebeneezer Goode]

I'd be surprised if the BBC got their formation right.

 

[Blitzballer]

Why do the beeb have a camera in Cambridge's dressing room but not in Man U's?

 

[Stevencc]

Why do the beeb have a camera in Cambridge's dressing room but not in Man U's?

Because Van Gaal often gets his testicles out as a motivating technique.

 

[mase]

Better cocks on the Cambridge lads.

 

[Freakyteeth]

Good luck Cambridge!

 

[Son of Cod]

"tiny Cambridge United"

I wonder if his arse is twitching yet.

 

[Pliny Harris]

Lee Gregory had scored against Cambridge United by this point.

Halifax Town > Manchester United

 

[Aberstone]

So had Richard Jolly.

Wealdstone > Manchester United.

 

[Scumarmy.]

We are currently 4 goals better than tiny Cambridge United.

Great atmosphere. Hopefully Luke Chadwick gets on, be good to see him do well as he served us well for years.
