    Are the semi finals 2 legs or just 1 game?

    United v Liverpool would be a great Final for the neutrals.

    United played some really good football tonight and scored some lovely goals.

    Too many have rushed to write United off far too soon imo the title might be beyond them given how far they are behind all of the front runners but a CL place at least is still achievable as is a domestic Cup/the Europa League.

    Nine, Liverpool and Utd would be a horrible final mate. Jose would use every trick in the book to win which is fine. He wouldn’t have the balls to attack us. He would wait for us to make a mistake. Score a goal and defend. It be dreadful for the neutral. We have to get by a very good Southampton team first.

    Sean, the tactics that Mourinho might employ in a Final v Liverpool at Wembley would be part of the fascination imo mate.

    United looked excellent going forward last night and Mkhityran looks like a very valuable new signing for them so United can play it both ways.

    But as you say both teams have to win their Semi Finals first.

    Speaking as a neutral though I’m glad the draw kept United and Liverpool apart as that offers the most interesting Final imo. Cheers 999

    You would have to expect YooUtd getting passed Hull without too much trouble, especially over two-legs.

    Pool have a much sterner test. I watched the Southampton/Everton game at the weekend and I was impressed with Southampton, played Toffee’s of the park in my opinion. It’s bad enough they keep churning out decent players, but they keep finding decent managers too. It’s a real shame they struggle to keep hold of them all over the last 10 years or so, they would have been at the right end of the table for sure.

    even over the years United always seem to draw the so called easier teams in KO competitions

    Nine, it was West Ham at home. Even look at the city carling cup game. They went 1-0 up , took an attacker off and brought a holding player on. It’s a tactic that has won Jose many cups so if I was a Utd fan I certainly wouldn’t mind once it won us the cup. Didn’t he do the same againest arsenal when Utd went 1-0 up? it’s fine attacking the lesser teams that don’t have the players to punish you. He’s a cagey manager in the big games but he usually gets results

    Sean, Mourinho will employ the tactics that he thinks will best win United the game mate but there’s a lot of foorball still to be played before the Final inc two two legged semi finals.

    It could still be a Hull v Southampton Final.?

    Talk of a Liverpool Utd final is premature in the extreme. We will have to be right on top of our game without Coutinho to get there. IF it is a Liverpool Utd final I agree with Sean. Jose Pulis will turn it into the most pointless 90/120 minutes in your life.

    Man United will comfortably see off Hull. I think Southampton will be a huge test for Liverpool though… -Marshy

    True nine, Southampton will be a very very tough game. No point talking about a Utd final as it may never happen

    Personally I would like to see Soton win it or at the very least get to the final

    They have a good academy and are a well run team regardless who seems to be in charge and the games of theirs that I have seen to date this season, they play some good football. KTBFFH
