    What an absolute *******, because your average football fan really cares about what the global audience want:

    Brighton must be empty today with all the United fans at Wembley.

    Good game so far.

    Same here. No doubt Sky, BT and the BBC/ITV will lap it up. Tedious. Battle of Manchester, can bald fraud clinch the treble or will he have to spend another £200M in the summer ? Yawn. Yawn. Yawn.

    I love how Brighton play out from the back .
    CBs hold onto the ball , play into a MF who is under pressure
    Up back and through the lines
    It is wonderful !!!

    Take some notes Mr. Manga....
    Robbie Savage - the Micheal Owen of football analysis.

    It’s very impressive, but they didn’t take shots at goal often enough yesterday.

    Savage, Sutton....it's clear that all you need to get a lucrative BBC "Football expert" contract is a tiny brain and a huge mouth.

    If he said that on 606 then he's just trying to provoke people into calling in to the phone-in. It's verbal clickbait.

    Exactly and if you actually look at what he’s saying, he’s not wrong. The global audience would prefer to see an all Manchester final as they couldn’t care less about Brighton. That’s why there was zero chance of a Brighton/Sheffield semi final.

    Train strike on the same day as the FA Cup final - no surprise there.

    Probably would have been targeted.

    Man U fans can still get tube from the suburbs - maybe Abu Dhabi FC will charter coaches or fly them down - small beer from their £600m revenue

    Our FA Cup humiliation does not seem so much of a humiliation after seeing last nights result.
    (Man City 4 Real Madrid 0).

    Indeed. We were only 2 goals worse than RM. We're about 8 goals worse now though.

    Didn't watch it, just going by the result. Anyway I bet los madrilenos, would not be nearly as proficient as we were.

    Man Utd to win. Get those FFP fraudsters to lose their triple win this season. Also, Pep is smug so-in-so and although United have been inconsistent all season I think they might just edge them.

    On the Met line into London and it's full of Man City fans having a good time. Train pulls into Pinner and a family dressed head to toe in Untied gear gets on.
    You can't buy this entertainment!

    My dislike of the organisation that is Man Utd is huge, but it is dwarfed by my abhorrence of what Man City stands for.
