Neville urges United to gamble for FA Cup glory vs City
Manchester United will be facing Manchester City in the FA Cup Finals this weekend, and this is their final opportunity to kiss silverware in the current season as United icon Gary Neville has urged Red Devils boss Erik ten Hag to take massive risks with his team selection on Saturday at Wembley Stadium.
It has been a difficult season at Old Trafford for the Dutch boss, and it would well be his final fixture in charge of the Manchester Reds as he walks on thin ice as regards his future at the club. Winning the FA Cup would be a feather in his hat that he can leverage into extending his stay at Carrington.
Can Red Devils pull off an upset despite Ten Hag’s woes?
It will be difficult for Manchester United to win against a team that has won four consecutive Premier League championships and is chasing another glory in the FA Cup, although that wouldn’t stop United from trying. They could pull off one of the great upsets that the United faithful can remember for a long time, especially considering their struggles this season.
You can never ignore the FA Cup magic and the unwavering spirit of this club. An unlikely victory could be the spark that ignites a new era at Carrington, and former icon Neville insists that Ten Hag should take risks, intending to lead the club to victory this weekend. He acknowledges the problems his former club faces and insists that the boss should go with a pair of Lisandro Martinez and Jonny Evans at the heart of defence instead of Varane this weekend.
He acknowledges Raphael Varane is a ‘massive risk’ as he has not been in his best form this season and Neville insists that United should gamble on a few players with injuries, despite the potential consequences.
