I'd say go to the pub, but they'd probably have it on.

I remember the type before the 2007 final and that turned out to probably be one of the worse finals ever!

 

Mind you both managers will want to win for different reasons.

[Mr Mister]

Man Utd to win FA Cup.

[CosbehFox]

£115 for a ticket at the FA Cup Final increased from £70 - same seat. To think of all the moaning we didn’t get through the quarters !

far from it by the looks of it.

terrible effort from them. 

Pricing which averaged to £70, £40 for child. I’m glad they stayed away

[Koke]

A lot is made of big clubs disregarding and disrespecting the cups but yet again another big club will win the damn thing. Likewise with the Leage Cup. Birmingham, Portsmouth, Swansea and Wigan are the only cup winners by small clubs in the last decade (if my memory serves me correct). That's 4 out of 20. That's 20%.

 

For the record, I don't consider Man City a big club by any stretch but you get my drift.

Sounds like even the FA themselves got a dig in a Spurs/Harry Kane!

And this is somehow news?

its dredging the barrel Sky Sports news style to think that an article is worth writing with this as the headline... surely this is the anicdotal chuckaway light hearted few lines at the end of an article notthe main event - gutter sports press.

Lukaku dropped for the final, Rashford in.

[Izzy]

Not sure who I want to win really. Probably Utd as they’re just about the lesser of two evils.

 

Just hope it’s a good open game but I’m not holding my breath...

not dropped. he got injured a few games ago and presumbaly hasn't fully recovered to start. 

[Suzie the Fox]

Also not sure who I want to win but I think I want United to lose more. 

[FoxesDeb]

I'm rooting for Chelsea. Don't really care for either of them, but obviously have fond memories of Hazard's goal in our title winning season, so that's what swings it for me. But only because for some reason I have to pick a team whatever I'm watching. 

[Sir Shep]

I’d like Chelsea to win, though I expect Man U will grind out a drab 1 nil. 

[fazzyfox]

Would just about prefer Chelsea to Mourinho winning but forecast 2-1 to Utd earlier this week, now I've seen line ups maybe a less exciting snoozefest of a 1-0 either way. To be fair Utd have a front 3 and their fullbacks are former wingers but no Willian for Chelsea limits their goalscoring options to just Giroud, Hazard and I suppose Alonso.

[yorkie1999]

Bit inconsiderate for William not to turn up

[whoareyaaa]

Think utd will win, don't care who does

[yorkie1999]

Thighs on that!

[Sir Shep]

Is he not injured?

[urban.spaceman]

Loathed Chelsea for 19 years after 1997, until all that goodwill and "helping" us win the league. So I let them off. Then they nicked Kante and I was furious with the pair of them for months. 

 

I'm over that now but I do feel sad for Kante - you're expected to win things at Chelsea and nothing he does there could ever match winning the Premier League at Leicester. So for that reason i want Chelsea to lose just to prove that point. 

[Izzy]

Can’t believe Hazard has played 300 times for Chelsea. That does surprise me..

[Suzie the Fox]

That sun near the Chelsea goal, must make it hard.
