This is the type of match that makes the FA cup soo special, with the FA cup games coming soon this one in particular caught my eye, Manchester United will have to play non-league side Crawley Town who are known as the giant killers of this FA cup soo far this season and it must be a good game to watch. What are your predictions?
Will United hammer Crawley?
Will United fight hard and scrap the result by a goal?
Will United be forced to a replay away to Crawley?
Will United be stunned and fall victim to the giant killers Crawley?

Well, I don't know if United will put up their strongest line-up. I think Anders Lindegaard will stay in the goal instead of Van der Saar. But I don't know about the other players.
I think United will win this without problems. United has won almost everything at Old Trafford this Season, and I don't think Crawley can do anything there.

Manchester United 1 - 0 Crawley Town.
According to some news I've read (i missed to watch this game myself :(), even Sir Alex complaints for the way the players play. Well, hope in the next match (against Arsenal or Leyton Orient) they won't do the same.
Also, in this game, finally Wes Brown is played again. I don't know if he had some injuries before, but if not, just feel sorry for him, cause his place in the main team is replaced by Rafael Da Silva, which must play better than him...

Yes, the reputation of FA Cup is built around such matches. I am responding after the match. So, I know that Man U went on to beat Crawley Town 1-0. Man U were mostly off color during the match and required a rare Wes Brown goal to move forward.
Cheers!

who know in soccer many thing can happen may be Crawley may win or have a tie match against ManU in their lucky day... really lucky day. Maybe ManU will win by one score from our new hero CHICHARITO :X, anything can happen... I'm a big fan of ManU but I also wish Crawley will play well so we can have a good match !
