Surely we have to be brave now and go for it? We've tried this cagey rubbish away from OT for more than a month now and all it's done is brought Chelsea back into the race.

On sunday I really don't want to see United players standing 5 yards away from Wigan players shuffling aimlessly side to side whilst the Wigan midfield look up and pick out passes. I don't want to see United waiting till 15 minutes to go to really take their gloves off and pepper the Wigan goal. I do not want to see ANY initiative given away whatsoever. United must be mean and play like demons possessed. They must play as if the club will go into administration if we don't win and all the players will be on the dole. I want our players to look like Keano on acid. Like players who are trying to avoid relegation.

So , no waiting . No Wigan taking the lead first and then United suddenly start playing ( God that makes me mad !!!) . No low tempo nonsense passing the ball around our back four for 10 minutes . We don't want to be waiting for a score flash from the bridge before we explode into life. Explode into life from the start!!! Up for it from minute one!!! In their faces , high tempo , speed of passing , quick moves, aggression , tackling etc etc.

If we make this game like a cup tie the Wigan players might start thinking about their holidays. They won't want to get any injuries or risk a summer on the treatment table. They just won't be able to live with that kind of committment. I want to see an Aresenal 4-0 type performance. No space given to any Wigan player in our half. (oh and another thing - if we go 1-0 up no sitting on our lead - get the second lads!!!)

Champions must be brave , Champions must believe. No limping over the line , no leaving anything on the pitch. I honestly believe if they do this they will be 99% certain of winning it. But will they? Anyone understand my potential frustration?
