Records exist to be broken
Hopefully this has no bearing at all on tonight's match.
Another omen is that United have won every European Final in which they've worn red (out of the seven finals we've played so far we've only been in red twice!)
And Utd's record against Spanish sides is pretty poor too.
I can't see anything other than a Man U win tbh.
We beat Alaves in 2001. Is that the last time
12 of those were Emery in the EL too.

Probably! Can't think of any others. Astounding stat though.
Luckily we aren’t playing one of those clubs.

Us old feckers remember us winning the European Cup in blue at Wembley 1968.
Correlation doesn't imply causality. Lots of these useless stats in football. If I've had 3 bumps in my car, all on a Wednesday, I don't stop driving on a Wednesday.
Considering this Manchester United and this Villareal team, we really should be winning the game. Not keen on a final of this sort really, feels like a win is the bare minimum that is acceptable so it feels a little bit of a lose lose situation. Win and it's "meh, you're supposed to", lose and it's the end of the world as we know it.

Have we beaten them though? I only remember 0-0s and a Rooney red card. Think Ronaldo might have got sent off against them as well?

All set up for a pulsating encounter tonight then.
I hope United have been practising taking penalties and just think of it as another "away" game. I hope we don't give away a sloppy early goal, as usual, and have to chase the game.
Obviously a British club is going to get the CL/European Cup but it would be nice to get this one as well.
Luckily United have a manager that has "got the T-shirt"
as a player and is laid-back enough to keep the team calm. Don't react to any provocation, keep 11 men on the pitch and if we have to win it in the 95th minute that's OK. Good luck United.
And yes you are right; they have all been 0-0. But this is a final. We all get excited but they can turn out to be dour and boring wuth managers being too frightened to lose.
Ole, "Cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war".
No-one likes to see their team lose tamely.

Could have been worse. We could have been facing Artetaball tonight.

No. The last time was when Bayern beat Valencia on penalties in the CL final... a week after the L’pool-Alavés game.
