They haven't played great no but it's the result that matters. If they get through then they deserve to be there no matter what they've played like. |

I disagree, you say that because it is your team, there are many times that when Arsenal have gotten through after we have played badly and people are just as likely to say the same thing about them. |

But Arsenal never deserve to go through even if they win 10-0. If you outplay a team for 90 minutes but get knocked out still then you don't deserve to be there, it's the goals that count.I'd have thought so Ricky...not sure what channel. |

So you think we remotely deserved the FA Cup 2005 over you? From what I remember we didn't deserve to be anywhere near that trophy.

sometimes you deserve to go through and sometimes you dont. if you outplay a team for 90 minutes but dont go through, you could argue you should have deserved to go through. true for the 2005 FA cup. but to say that united dont deserve to be in the final of any competition is a bit much, if united, or any team for that matter under play in group stages, knock out stages then make it to the semi final. they play superbly in that game and go through...they completely deserve it. it all comes down to the game on the day. |

To say they dont deserve to be in the final is a joke, if they get there then they have earned the right to be there |

I don't think your getting my point, think about that 2005 FA Cup Final against Arsenal, I firmly believe that we did not deserve to win that match and therefore that trophy at all. And I can freely admit it |

Yea your were outplayed but so what you won it, you had the bottle to win the shootout so it was deserved. United fans may have felt hard done as the played so well but still.

This. The only exception is cheating really. Just been reading the match preview on SS and they think the defence will be Rafael, Brown, Evans and Fabio.

Very...if they've got it right that is. Both Vidic and Ferdinand were meant to be closing in on a return but they are saying this match is too soon for them on there. I hope Fergie picks a pretty strong line-up. |
