Re: Manchester United Supporters Thread - FA Cup Final Week!!
We already won the FA Cup last year. Which was a disappointing season anyway. Us winning the FA Cup again this year wouldnt have been any improvement over last season. Sir Alex already said this season that his real target is winning the title or the CL cuz he also feels that a club of our standards arent satisfied with just the FA Cup. You think guys like Rooney joined us just to win the FA Cup?
I'm happy we played well cuz I always use the last day of the season to look back and compare how much we've improved over the year. Last year, Ronaldo played well up until the final where he put on an even greater performance which IMO, made him a better player. This year, guys like Fletcher, Ronaldo and Rooney improved. People seem to forget that we have a lot of new faces in the team that havent won the title yet so we're still in a transition period really. Maybe if we didnt have those injuries, things might have been different.
But Arsenal's team is the exact same team that went undefeated last year and won the title. This year they finished second by a big margin.
So if you look at it, Arsenal look like they're in a declie while our next season looks promising.
I'll be honest, I have been more upset when we drop points to some of the other teams in the Presmiership than losing this final. I dont think I've ever been so happy after losing a final.
But those Gooners keep trying to prove that I AM upset. Its almost as if they want me to be upset.
lucasetor said:When you say you are happy with the loss simply because you outplayed us, I find it hard to believe. However, even if that is true, I can guarantee you that you would have been happier with a win regardless of whether it came about by playing better than us or worse.
Think what you want. I dont really care. I personnally dont give a damn. Maybe if you had won the title, then I would have something to care about.lucasetor said:I also find it hard to see how a win for us means more than one for you. You are in thrid place for the second year in a row, your team just got bought by an American leaving in his wake grief and despondency among your faithful (see fan demonstrations etc.) Arsenal were second in the league (never done worse since 1998), the only team to provide some semblance of a challenge to Chelsea (never lost to them). So there.

The thing is, I dont care about this loss. I was more upset when Chelsea won the title.kingpug said:RuneEdge always has an excuse doesnt he,
