The Manchester United Thread

Feel kinda sorry for memphis tho. I thought he'd make the bench.

I'd get and understand that ..... If it wasn't a final and your only chance of silverware.

Each to their own, but never want to lose a final mate. What will be will be but never want that. The clubs FAR bigger than any individual and the success of the club comes first. Even if you think that's detrimental to the clubs longer term chances of success, that's for others to decide. Never want to lose a final.
 
Geez I woke up mad excited about the final :)
BBC are doing a full day of coverage I believe? That's me on the couch for an entire Saturday then.

C'mon United!!!

Like being a kid again with all day Cup Final Grandstand. Up early in yer jammies watching the teams have brekie, then on the coach ride the ground with all sorts of interviews and things in between. Happy days. All that's missing is a 3 PM kick-off as it should be!

Maybe be you have to be British and of a certain age to appreciate just how special the FA Cup is?

Having a mega, lazy final day today here too. Hopefully watch Rangers back into Europe with a Scottish Cup win at 3. Palace doing what they deserved to do the first game in '90 after. (Smiles.). Then Milan somehow saving the year against Juve this evening. Just sorry the Bayern- BvB German final clashes as that should be a great one too.

    Pereira: "LvG did not let me leave. I took the decision and now I'm training, doing my job and waiting for him to fulfil his word."

    Pereira: "I wanted to be loaned out in Jan in order to play more, but LvG told me to stay because he would use me and that I would play."

Can't believe there was people here like Mike or Tyton who tried to even argue that Pereira hasn't been mistreated this season.

Now coming out with he could of gone out on loan in January and LVG refused it considering he hasn't been in matchday squad since last February before the last game of season is just pathetic.

We've truly wasted any possibility of using or improving him this season by giving him a chance somewhere else. Great management.
 
Just watched the England U20 v Portugal U20s and GK Joel Periera was very impressive pulling of at least 3 world or saves. If not for him England would have scored at least 4 or 5. Continues his impressive development. Looks a real talent this lad.
 
Van Gaal could have planned to use him but when your team due to injuries has to have half of the under 20s in it you want every senior player you can get playing even if it means Pereira doesn't get on

This argument doesn't really apply considering he had not even been in the match day squad since February. I mean if he was always on the bench it would but because he wasn't, he has been U21's practically all second half of season so he could of just gone out on loan.

Nah!! Sure I'm Irish and have always loved the cup final.
I've two American mates in their 40's too, and they've been following the FA cup for decades. They love cup final day and because they are neutrals, they deck the living room out in the colours, get the beers in and choose sides.

They will have more fun than me today because they have no worries :)

Do you even read what people write or just get het up. I said he's not the best player in the youth. We knew months ago that Lvg wasn't going to send him on loan.

We also said he wasn't better than Mata. And he isn't. End of pointless argument.
 
Call me an old fart (because I am) and a stick in the mud but the FA Cup lost it's magic for me once they tinkered with it's kick off time, scheduled it for TV coverage etc. Good luck to both sides, hope it's enjoyable-but I'm giving it a miss which is a first for me

So because player A is not better than player B on paper, he doesn't even deserve an opportunity even though player A hasn't been at his best this season?

When the **** does Pereira deserve an opportunity then? Mata by his standards has had an average season at best. Lingard is an average player, I just don't understand when you expect players like these actually to get a chance.
 
We can argue this for as long as you like, but at the end of the day, at the start of this season people rated Pereira as one of our best young players. It's so easy to say different now Mike, but honestly I'm not going to trawl back to find posts who thought Pereira was going to have the best chance of playing time in first team from the youth.

Pereira was our best U21 player no doubt about it. He was treated very unfairly. He should have got more chances than he got.

I like how Van Gaal played so many young players but his treatment of Pereira and Januzaj were the only black spots IMO.

Exactly, why people even try to deny this is beyond me, especially going into this season it is not debatable.

This is not a massive crusade on LVG as he has done good things with other players like Rashford (more out of coincidence than anything else I would argue to get him his chance in first place due to injuries) but I think Pereira has been horribly treated this season. I mean LVG certainly hasn't helped himself with the reputation he has for treating Brazilians badly.

I agree. There was a huge news about Van Gaal and Brazilians and Van Gaal didn't help with how he treated Pereira. He gave so many players chances to prove their worth but not for our best U21 player.

Should have given more chances. Also we should thank Van Gaal for saving few millions. Now instead of signing squad players we can rely on our U21 players who are part of first team squad.
