I dont get all the Henderson bottom licking.

He has always looked shaky. He is another Ben foster. Decent mid table GK but not elite level.

We are swapping our magic beans for a cow

True. But DDG was more out of date baked beans than magic beans, in the last year at least.

Did you watch him against Roma?

Yep. He had a good game. But he’s had dozens of bad games in the last 2 years. He may find form against, but it’s silly to pretend he has been good recently.

Dozens?

Henderson has yet to play in front of a crowd for United. A whole different world of pressure.

I'd love (and think we need) one more season out of DDG

Didn’t he have the most errors of any PL keeper last season? I genuinely cannot believe anyone disagrees that he has been poor for a while.

I don't think anyone would disagree with you that he’s been poor for a while but dozens of poor games is simply harsh. There’s only three dozen plus two in a league season remember ...

I don’t think Henderson is anywhere near as good as De Gea and the other night he was dreadful - probably the worst he’s been. Long may he stay!

Haha. Fair point!

How nice is it to hear a real crowd at Wembley!!
A little bit of normal!

Never thought I'd find Chowsea Chowsea Chowsea somewhat rousing

Who decided that dark blue shirts and maroon shirts on the same pitch would be a good idea
I’m really struggling to see the different teams

[200Plus Club]

Not the best final in recent years so far. Ideally Leicester to win so Chelsea have to go for it against city?

Crap game being won (so far) by a goal that this game doesn’t deserve. Superb from Tielemans.

[and31]

I don’t like the 5.15 kick off
It’s the cup final-3.00 pm please.
I can remember when cup final day was a real big thing-it would be on all day until kick off-and everyone watched it no matter who was playing.
Although we only had four telly channels then!

Well done to Leics first fa cup win I believe.
Chelsea please up your game for the next final :-)

VAR strikes again. So crap.

I do t think they will. They’ve gone form a team with nothing to lose so played with freedom amd won, to a team that’s afraid to lose amd just pass the ball sideways and backwards. See the match against Arsenal earlier this week for confirmation. As annoyingly boring City are with their tippy tappy sideways football, they do try to score Chelsea seem to wait until added time before they try.

I don’t either, new manager bounce whipped up to a frenzy, that’s Chelsea under Tuchel for me.

Can’t agree with the boring city though the football they’ve been playing is sublime. And in Phil Foden they have a gem. Fortunately an English gem .

I just find the whole tippy tappy sideways and backwards football depressingly boring. It’s like Liverpool in the 70s (according to my dad). I know there’s an attempt to score and fair play that’s more than most teams do, but it’s still mindnumbingly boring.
