Europa Final - Who and How ?

These are the outcomes I can see...

If United score first:
2-1 United 90 mins
2-1 United ET
2-1 Ajax ET

If Ajax score first:
2-1 United 90 mins
2-1 Ajax 90 mins
2-1 United ET
2-1 Ajax ET
3-2 United ET
3-2 Ajax ET

Or in other words:
22% chance United win in 90 mins
33% chance United win in ET
11% chance Ajax win in 90 mins
33% chance Ajax win in ET
0% chance of penalties

All in my imagination of course.

How do you live like this ?

There's no way United will win this in 90 mins.

It'll go to extra time and we'll do something £#%&!ing moronic to give the game away because as our players have shown numerous times over the last 2 seasons - when the pressure is on they lose the £#%&!ing plot.

Really not overly confident. Any experienced side should be able to target Ajax's inevitable naivety, but as much as they should play into our hands from a tactical point of view, we've seen United try their very best to bottle this tournament against worse sides.

Dreading it tbh.

can't wait for this game. it's gonna be intense. the atmosphere should be crackling. united vs ajax in a european final. you can't ask for much more than this

Our capacity to shit the bed at both ends in key moments is my biggest concern. I can see us playing well for most of the match and then losing it in brief poor spells.

Gut feeling is that we'll win it, but I have no real confidence in most of our players and the team as a collective.

Bailly and Zlatan are huge misses for us.

yes but what do you think will happen?

I've gone United inside the 90 - although I have absolutely no rational explanation for this prediction.

Good point this. Most people when they shit a bed would tend to do it somewhere around the middle. Not us though, we shit it at the ends.

Prossibly because the middle already is covered in shit.

Either way... we should win but these recent performances, as "irrelevant" as the games themselves may have been, don't inspire confidence.

The last few league games don't concern me.

The previous 34 do though

Every confidence .. 3-1

I'm glad you added the caveat in the last sentence. Really clarified things for me.

Absolutely shitting it, but would be regardless of the opposition tbh.


Astonished people are voting.


Close thread.

we will go 1-0 up and retreat to our own half. ajax will have no option but to go 2-1 up. we will then go balls out for 10 minutes playing the best football of the season, but unluckily fail to score.

2-1 to the plucky shit@#%&!s

On penalties, possibly.

What's all this Zlatan's gonna be fit nonsense? Surely not?
