Manchester United's FA Cup Woes: A Look at Their Record Since the 2004 Win



May 22, 2004 is a date that lives long in the memory of many Manchester United fans—it's the date the Red Devils last lifted the famous FA cup.

But that date is also firmly in the past. It's been seven-and-a-half seasons since Sir Alex Ferguson's men went all the way, so let's take a look at where they've fallen over the past decade.

Could this be the year?

2004-05: Finalists


Manchester United's cup defence started in alarming fashion—they were held to a 0-0 draw at home to non-league Exeter City.

The replay was won 2-0 though, and they negotiated the next three rounds against Everton, Southampton and Middlesbrough without conceding a goal and scoring nine.

Ruud van Nistelrooy, Cristiano Ronaldo and Paul Scholes scored as United advanced to the final at the expense of Newcastle United, where nemeses Arsenal lay in wait.

A scoreless game ended on penalties, and Patrick Viera held his nerve to win it for the Gunners. Heartbreak.

2005-06: Rivalry Issues


The 2006 edition of this competition started in equally worrisome fashion—a 0-0 draw against Burton Albion.

The replay was a 5-0 battering at home, and Sir Alex Ferguson's side went on to defeat Wolves 3-0 away.

This year's journey was to be ended in the fifth round however, as eventual winners Liverpool took the bragging rights after a tense 1-0 victory. Back to the drawing board.

2006-07: Mourinho's Magic


The 2007 edition of the FA Cup began in a familiar fashion for Manchester United by beating Aston Villa.

Portsmouth fell, then the Red Devils overcame a slight scare against Reading. It took them two attempts to get past Middlesbrough, but Sir Alex Ferguson's charges then eased past Watford in the semifinals to make it three trips to the final in four years.

It was the first FA Cup final to be played at the new Wembley Stadium, but a change of scenery did not mean a change of fortunes. A 116th-minute winner from Didier Drogba saw Chelsea announced the victors.

2007-08: Home Discomforts


Another year, another competition for Manchester United kicked off with a customary win over Aston Villa, 2-0 this time.

After defeating Tottenham in round four, United battered Arsenal 4-0 in the fifth to truly instill the hope that this year was finally a date with destiny.

Unfortunately, Cristiano Ronaldo and co. slipped up against Portsmouth at home, as a Sulley Muntari penalty sealed a famous victory for Pompey.

2008-09: A Chance Truly Wasted


Southampton, Tottenham, Derby and Fulham fell with ease as Manchester United marched on with Wembley in their sights.

With a semifinal draw against Everton, a date with the winner of Arsenal vs. Chelsea looked a borderline certainty.

David Moyes didn't see it that way though, and the Toffees triumphed on penalties after Dimitar Berbatov and Rio Ferdinand missed for the Red Devils.

2009-10: Cupset


In the shock of the round, and arguably the entire tournament, Leeds United traveled to Old Trafford and won 1-0. In the third round.

The solitary goal, scored by Jermain Beckford, was enough to lift the striker's career prospects and earn him a move to Everton.

Chelsea went onto win the cup that year, with a Didier Drogba free kick beating Portsmouth in the final.

2010-11: Crushing Defeat


Manchester United beat a variety of opponents during their 2011 adventure, recording results against Southampton, Crawley Town and arch-rivals Liverpool.

They breezed through to the semifinals and set up a delicious-looking date with neighbours Manchester City, but it was the blue half of Wembley that went home happy following a 1-0 win.

Paul Scholes' record and Yaya Toure's solitary goal condemned the Red Devils to defeat, and the wait to lift the FA Cup continued for a seventh year.

2011-12: Beat One, but Fall to Another


In the third round, Manchester United avenged the previous season's demons by beating Manchester City 3-2 on their own turf.

With belief riding high after eliminating one of the biggest threats, the Red Devils were promptly undone by Daniel Agger and Dirk Kuyt strikes at Anfield.

The 2-1 scoreline was enough to see Sir Alex Ferguson's men out in just the fourth round, leaving fans dismayed once more as the FA Cup eluded their grasp.

Could this season be different?

FA Cup in demand as Manchester United look to rekindle age-old romance

Sir Alex Ferguson's Premier League leaders have gone nine years without success in the competition that for so long kept them on the map

On the perpetual motion machine that is Sir Alex Ferguson's Manchester United, there is always unfinished business to be found. From taking the title back to Old Trafford from the Etihad to making up for two decades of largely unfulfilled potential in Europe, the most successful manager in the history of British football, greedy as ever, is still found demanding more.

With their lead at the top of the Premier League nearing unassailable and a priceless Champions League away goal secured at the Bernabeu, United host Reading on Monday with the FA Cup again playing third fiddle to modern football's two most sought-after, and most lucrative, holy grails.

But there has been a clamour from the Scot and his squad regarding their desire for the trophy which was to be Sir Alex's maiden piece of silverware at United back in 1990. After all, this could be the first generation of players at the club not to win the FA Cup in nearly 40 years.

Not since a 19-year-old Cristiano Ronaldo dominated the 2004 cup final against Millwall, having faced a season of scrutiny over his gold-booted stepovers and alleged style over substance, have United won the trophy that has always been cherished with a familiar warmth at Old Trafford.

The match-winner at Wembley in 1977, Jimmy Greenhoff, so cherished the win that had come seven years after Matt Busby's retirement and three following an unthinkable relegation for the club that he refused to follow the example of many others and sell his medal when coming into financial difficulties two decades later, choosing instead to work in a warehouse and hold on to the only relic of the day that remained, with his shirt having been stolen from the dressing room.

"An FA Cup fifth round tie against Reading in the Seventies would have been a highlight of the season, even if Reading were then in the lower leagues, because of the magic of the FA Cup," says Greenhoff.

"The first FA Cup final I remember was the Matthews Final of 1953. We watched it on our first black and white television and it cemented my love affair with the competition. We were one of the first in our street in Barnsley to have a TV, even though we still had an outside loo.

"Thanks in part to that memory, I grew up dreaming of winning the FA Cup and achieved it, though as I got older I appreciated it was more important to win the league.

"But if Liverpool had won that day, United’s own Treble of the league, FA Cup and European Cup would not have been unique. So I think Beckham, Keane and Giggs have a lot to thank us for."

That win more than any other, from a squad still stumbling in a worryingly prophetic post-Matt Busby haze, came to define United of the time; an endearing mix of exciting if not quite ruthless youngsters and in Tommy Docherty, who was sacked only two months later for an extramarital affair with club physiotherapist Laurie Brown, a manager who kept the club in the headlines, for better or worse.

United would then wait six years for their cup romance to be rekindled, as Bob Paisley's Liverpool continued to dominate 33 miles down the East Lancs Road winning four titles and three European Cups before Ron Atkinson, fully aware of the Stretford End's demand for the footballing high life, delivered two FA Cup wins, beating Brighton and Everton at Wembley in 1983 and 1985 respectively.

Thereafter, United pursued the trophy relentlessly under Ferguson, winning it four times in the 1990s before abandoning their defence of the trophy in 2000 in order to travel to Brazil in what would prove a calamitous World Club Championship for the Treble winners.

The current barren spell therefore remains as an unusual, and no doubt irksome blemish on an otherwise exceptional record for the modern day United. Since the 2004 victory, the league leaders have won the title four times, the League Cup three and the 2007-08 Champions League. After courting the cup with an almost clingy persistence with squads far weaker than today's for years, Old Trafford is nearing a decade without its familiar old friend taking up space in an otherwise well-stocked trophy cabinet.

Of the current squad, only Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes, Darren Fletcher and Robin van Persie (with Arsenal) possess winner's medals, with Rio Ferdinand having missed out on the 2004 final due to suspension. To the rest of the squad, the magic of an FA Cup win is an unknown quantity.

That success has remained a constant under Ferguson suggests that the cup has simply suffered for a change in priorities at Old Trafford. As United have grown, the country's oldest competition has, at times, threatened to be waylaid; an unfashionable, sepia-tinged sideshow to the Premier League and Champions League behemoths.

In some respects it is true, and will again be proven as much by the inevitably under full strength starting XI that will face Reading at Old Trafford. Ultimately, the club earned in the region of Ł23 million in prize money alone for losing the Champions League final to Barcelona in 2011. Winning the FA Cup this term will see the winners only pocket approximately Ł3.4m.

But a glance at the winners engraved on the trophy since the Premier League's 1992-93 inception would suggest that the dampened allure of the cup has been somewhat overplayed. Only twice in two decades have teams outside of the 'Big Six' gone on to win it, in the form of Everton and Portsmouth.

There have also been near misses for Sir Alex, with a penalty shoot-out against Arsenal in 2005 and extra-time Didier Drogba goal two years later both stopping United securing their 12th win in the competition. The semi-final defeat to Manchester City in 2011 is still seen by many on both sides of the city as the final crucial hurdle passed by Mancini's squad to set up the ground-shaking, game-changing title win last May.

Chris Smalling, Wayne Rooney and Ferdinand have each spoken out over their need to rectify the jug-eared shaped hole on their respective CVs, while Ferguson has made clear to the squad that ending the drought is a must. Disposing of Brian McDermott's men on Monday is just the start.

"In many people’s eyes, 'It’s Reading, yeah, we’ve just been to Madrid, it was a great night and Monday will take care of itself'," said Sir Alex on Friday. "Monday can’t take care of itself. We have to take care of it."

UNITED'S NEAR MISSES SINCE 2004

2005: ARSENAL 0-0 MAN UNITED
The holders dominated Arsene Wenger's side at the Millennium Stadium with both Wayne Rooney and Ruud van Nistelrooy hitting the woodwork but were forced to settle for penalties, in which Paul Scholes missed to set up a Gunners victory.

2007: CHELSEA 1-0 MAN UNITED
The first FA Cup final at the new Wembley Stadium was a drab affair, with Didier Drogba bagging a 116th-minute winner to secure Jose Mourinho's first and only victory in the competition

2009: MAN UNITED 0-0 EVERTON
Sir Alex Ferguson's side suffered penalty heartbreak for the second time in four years, with Dimitar Berbatov and Rio Ferdinand missing from the spot to see David Moyes' men through to the final, where they eventually lost to Chelsea

2011: MAN CITY 1-0 MAN UNITED
Dimitar Berbatov was made to regret his missed chance in the first half of this tense semi-final by the superb Yaya Toure as Roberto Mancini went on to secure silverware in his first full season with Manchester City

United's first FA Cup win



As United's bid to win a twelfth FA Cup begins with a home tie against Swansea, we recall the club's maiden success in 1909.

Ernest Mangnall’s Manchester United team entered the club's first FA Cup-winning season of 1908/09 as league champions, having cantered down the home straight in '08 in a manner befitting Usain Bolt.

The club's first league title was won with a record 52 points (two points for a win), nine more than runners-up Aston Villa. Goals were also in bounteous supply as United were the division's leading scorers with 81, Sandy Turnbull (25) and George Wall (19) leading the way.

But if Mangnall’s best-laid plans had not hit the skids, they’d certainly suffered a wobble as 1908/09 unfolded. Five straight league wins to start the season had suggested another procession could be in the offing, but that was followed by a bout of wholly unpredictable form including nightmare defeats at Sunderland (6-1) and Middlesbrough (5-0). No wonder the FA Cup became a welcome distraction from the faltering champions' league travails.

The route to United's first FA Cup final started at home to Southern League outfit Brighton (1-0), continued with another home win over Everton (1-0) and then gained momentum with a 6-1 thrashing of Blackburn Rovers with Scottish stars Sandy Turnbull and Jimmy Turnbull (namesakes but not related) notching a hat-trick apiece.

There was to be no accompanying bounce in the league - the Reds won only one of the last 14 league games - but at least Lady Luck was smiling on the Cup run. With United trailing 1-0 in the quarter-final at Mangnall’s old club Burnley, referee Herbert Bamlett – who would later manage the Reds – called a halt to the game when a blizzard obscured the pitch markings. In the rematch, United were far better, Turnbull (2) and Halse doing the honours in a 3-2 win. Newcastle, closing in on the title and in pursuit of the first Double of the century, were then defeated 1-0 in a nervy semi-final at Bramall Lane, to set up a first FA Cup final appearance for United, against Bristol City, on 24 April 1909.

Cup fever gripped Manchester – dozens of special trains were laid on for London – and more than 70,000 fans including huge contingents from the North West with (‘jars of strong ale and sandwiches an inch thick’) packed Crystal Palace for the final.

Mangnall, a wily old bird, well ahead of the curve on sports psychology, hired fabled music-hall comic George Robey to entertain his team at their Chingford base in the week-long build up, and had his players relaxing with golf and light training – doubtless a pleasant change from the punishing physical schedule that was his wont.

Finally, the big day came, and with it injury worries in the shape of Sandy Turnbull’s knee. As United fretted over whether to risk him, Charlie Roberts, a man clearly attuned to what has become a fine club tradition, urged the boss to throw caution to the wind. “Let him play – he might get a goal and if he does, we can afford to carry him,” he said.

Roberts was right; in the 22nd minute, a Halse effort struck the bar, and the arch-opportunist Turnbull pounced and thrashed the ball home. With chances scarce and Meredith pulling the strings, three months before his 35th birthday, United held out for another 1-0 win. Meredith's influence also extended to the kit worn by the players - the all-white change strip with a plunging red ‘V’ was supplied by the canny Welshman’s own sports shop.

The first of United’s eleven FA Cups had been won, and thousands craned for vantage points in Manchester's Albert Square to welcome home their heroes in a horse-drawn, open-topped bus.

United's 1909 FA Cup final team: Harry Moger; George Stacey, Vince Hayes; Dick Duckworth, Charlie Roberts, Alex Bell; Billy Meredith, Harold Halse, Jimmy Turnbull, Alexander 'Sandy' Turnbull, George Wall.

Semi success: 1909-90



Sunday's Wembley summit with Everton is United's 26th FA Cup semi-final tie - a competition record. Here's a reminder of the Reds' victories at this stage from 1909 to 1990...

1908/09 United 1 Newcastle Utd 0, Bramall Lane, 27.03.09
Ernest Mangnall’s charges see off Newcastle – one eye on wresting the title from the Reds' grasp – through Harold Halse’s goal. United go on to beat Bristol City 1-0 at Crystal Palace. Finishing 13th in the league is evidently lucky – as it was for Sir Alex in 1990, when he won his first trophy.

1947/48 United 3 Derby County 1, Hillsborough, 13.03.48
It’s Rams to the slaughter in United's first semi-final for 22 years – a campaign that will end with Sir Matt’s first trophy. Salford lad – and Morrissey look-alike – Stan Pearson’s hat-trick books the club’s second Cup final appearance and a first at Wembley.

1956/57 United 2 Birmingham City 0, Hillsborough, 23.03.57
The Busby Babes in their pomp are just too cute for the mid-table Midlanders. Goals from Johnny Berry and Bobby Charlton, still six months short of his 20th birthday, have the tie won within the opening 13 minutes.

1957/58 United 2 Fulham 2, Villa Park, 22.03.58; United 5 Fulham 3 (Replay), Highbury, 26.03.58
With Munich tears barely dried, United dig deep. Bobby Charlton, back for the quarter-final win over West Brom, spares the Reds' blushes with a late equaliser at Villa Park. In the replay, a hat-trick from 18-year-old rookie Alex Dawson ensures a Wembley send-off for the Babes. And, fittingly, Charlton has the last word with the fifth.United lose in the final, though – 2-0 to Bolton.

1962/63 United 1 Southampton 0, Villa Park, 27.04.63
Denis Law ends his first season as a Red with 29 goals, sending United to Wembley with the only goal of a dour affair against Second Division Saints. At Wembley, Busby’s five-year, post-Munich plan is realised when his relegation-threatened side upset the form-book, larruping Leicester City.

1975/76 United 2 Derby County 0, Hillsborough, 03.04.76
Gordon Hill's brace books a first Cup final berth since '63 with boss Tommy Docherty quipping: “This is the first final to be played at Hillsborough. The other semi is a bit of a joke.” It's no joke when favourites United lose the final to Southampton...

1976/77 United 2 Leeds United 1, Hillsborough, 23.04.77
The Reds roar into a 2-0 lead through Jimmy Greenhoff and a Steve Coppell pile-driver. One-dimensional Leeds, resorting largely to hoofed balls up to Joe Jordan, pull one back through Allan Clarke’s penalty but the Reds still avenge the 'semi defeats in '65 and '70.

1978/79 United 2 Liverpool 2, Maine Road, 31.03.79; United 1 Liverpool 0 (Replay), Goodison Park, 04.04.79
Mid-table league form (the Reds finish ninth) is offset by a good Cup run, with Brian Greenhoff and Joe Jordan looking to have the tie won before Alan Hansen’s late equaliser forces a replay. United win the second game at Goodison 1-0 when Brian’s brother Jimmy stoops to conquer late on.

1982/83 United 2 Arsenal 1, Villa Park, 16.04.83
A double of sorts as the Gunners are seen off in both the League and FA Cup semis. In the latter, the Reds recover from Tony Woodcock’s opener (the first goal conceded in the Cup campaign) to win through with a goal from Bryan Robson and Norman Whiteside’s terrific volley. Big Norm later becomes the youngest player to score in a final at 18 years and 19 days old.

1984/85 United 2 Liverpool 2, Goodison Park, 13.04.85;
United 2 Liverpool 1 (Replay) Maine Road, 17.04.85;

When Paul McGrath’s misjudged header flashes past Gary Bailey for an agonising own-goal in the replay, United are left needing something special after the break – and boy, does Bryan Robson find it. Starting his charge a yard inside Liverpool’s half, he keeps going and going, before thrashing the ball past Bruce Grobbelaar. Mark Hughes’ equally emphatic strike makes it two finals in three seasons.

1989/90 United 3 Oldham Athletic 3, Maine Road, 08.04.90;
United 2 Oldham 1 (Replay), Maine Road, 11.04.90

You have to feel a tad sorry for Oldham, especially when one of their own clambers off the bench – Mark Robins, come on down – to send the Reds to Wembley with an extra-time replay winner following a dramatically drawn first meeting. A few weeks later, Sir Alex Ferguson becomes only the second man to manage a winning side in Cup finals north and south of the border; the silver service starts here…

21/04/2016 - ManUtd.com, Adam Marshall
MANCHESTER UNITED'S FA
CUP SEMI-FINAL FACTS


Ahead of Manchester United's Emirates FA
Cup semi-final with Everton on Saturday,
ManUtd.com picks out 12 facts about the
club's last-four ties of the past...

Steel City start

Manchester United's first four semi-finals
were all played in the same South
Yorkshire city - two at Bramall Lane, home
of Sheffield United, and two at
Hillsborough, Sheffield Wednesday's
ground. The latter was the most frequent
semi venue for the Reds until relatively
recently when Villa Park (11 visits)
overtook it.

Treble top

Two United players have scored hat-tricks
in FA Cup semi-finals - Stan Pearson in a
3-1 victory over Derby County in 1948 and
Alex Dawson in the 5-3 replay triumph
against Fulham at Highbury a decade later.

Firing blanks

The Reds failed to score in six consecutive
semi-final matches in a sequence which
started in 1965. Leeds United won a replay
1-0 in that year after the first game ended
goalless; the Yorkshire club also beat Sir
Matt Busby's team 1-0 in 1970, this time in
a second replay after two 0-0 draws. In
1966, the Reds lost to a solitary strike by
this Saturday's opponents, Everton, in a
semi-final staged at Burnden Park, Bolton.

Semi-finals on the spin

United reached the last-four stage in five
successive years between 1962 and 1966
but only progressed to the final in one of
them, 1963, when Busby's men knocked
out Southampton and went on to lift the
trophy at Leicester City's expense. In the
mid-1990s, Alex Ferguson's team reached
and won three consecutive semi-finals
against Oldham Athletic, Crystal Palace and
Chelsea. The Reds went on to win the FA
Cup in 1994 and 1996 but lost the 1995
final - to Everton.

Captain Marvel

Bryan Robson is United's leading scorer in
FA Cup semi-finals with five goals to his
name, spanning five separate games
including replays. Sir Bobby Charlton is
next best with four strikes.

The Hills

The late Jimmy Hill, the long-serving
Match of the Day host, scored against the
Reds for Fulham in front of around 70,000
fans at Villa Park in 1958, thus maintaining
his record of hitting the net in every round
bar the final. Another Hill, Gordon (no
relation), bagged both goals for United in
the 2-0 victory over Derby County in 1976.

Wembley woe

United have played three FA Cup semi-
finals at Wembley but have not won any of
them. The Reds needed a last-gasp
equaliser from Mark Hughes in 1994 before
overcoming Oldham Athletic in the replay
at Maine Road. More recently, Sir Alex
Ferguson's men lost to Everton on
penalties in 2009 and were defeated 1-0 by
Manchester City 1-0 two years later.

Tough Toffees

United have lost to Everton in both of the
semi-final meetings so far - the
aforementioned ties of 1966 and 2009. The
Reds' most frequent opponents at this
stage are Leeds (two defeats, one win) and
Arsenal (three wins).

Pally's pair

Gary Pallister netted only 15 goals in 437
games for United but he managed to score
against Crystal Palace in both the 1995
semi-final and its replay - his only two FA
Cup strikes for the club in 38 appearances.
The centre-back was joined on the
scoresheet by two fellow defenders - Denis
Irwin in the first game and Steve Bruce in
the rematch.

Cup classic

The famous 1999 tie at Villa Park, which
included Ryan Giggs's sensational solo
winner against Arsenal, was the last-ever
FA Cup semi-final replay. The titanic clash,
one of the finest in the competition's long
and illustrious history, arguably only came
about because Roy Keane had a goal
wrongly disallowed in the first game at
Aston Villa's ground.

'Invincibles' humbled

Arsenal may have gone through the entire
2003/04 league season undefeated but
they were no match for Sir Alex Ferguson's
side in the FA Cup semi-final at Villa Park.
Paul Scholes smashed in the only goal of
the game and United went on to beat
Millwall in the final. That was the 11th and
last time the Reds won the trophy; Arsenal
have since edged ahead as the most
successful team in FA Cup history with 12
triumphs.

Brothers in arms

Jimmy and Brian Greenhoff have both
found the net for United at the last-four
stage. Former Stoke striker Jimmy scored
crucial goals against Leeds (1977) and
Liverpool (1979 replay), while defender
Brian also scored in the 1979 semi-final tie,
in the initial clash with the Merseysiders.

WHO IS UNITED'S BEST FA CUP FINAL KEEPER?



To mark Manchester United reaching the 2016 FA Cup final, we have decided to compile a team made up of the Reds who have enjoyed the best individual performances in the showpiece game over the years.

GARY BAILEY (1983, 1985)
After losing in heartbreaking circumstances to Arsenal in 1979, the blond-haired keeper had to wait four years before returning to another cup final. There would have been more anguish against Brighton but for his vital block with his legs from Gordon Smith in the dying seconds. Bailey kept a clean sheet in the replay and made an acrobatic tip-over when Jimmy Case's shot deflected off Kevin Moran in the first half. He also thwarted Steve Gatting and Michael Robinson with a fine double save. Two years later, Bailey again kept his goal in tact as 10-man United beat Everton 1-0, dealing with the aerial threat of Andy Gray.

JACK CROMPTON (1948)
Jack was the man between the sticks when Sir Matt Busby won his first trophy as United boss in 1948 as the Reds upset favourites Blackpool in a classic post-War final. Despite being a major doubt with a painful back abscess, the Newton Heath-born keeper was close to stopping Eddie Shimwell's penalty (Crompton was something of a spot-kick specialist) and pulled off a string of saves in a thrilling 4-2 win. One superb diving stop to deny Stan Mortensen with the scores tied at 2-2 was pivotal as he then launched the attack that led to Stan Pearson handing United the lead for the first time in front of 100,000 fans at a sunny Wembley.

PETER SCHMEICHEL (1994, 1996, 1999)
On each of his three FA Cup wins, the trophy was not the grandest lifted by the Dane that season but, nevertheless, a trio of clean sheets produced far more positive memories than the 1-0 defeat to Everton in 1995. During the 4-0 thumping of Chelsea, he was only extended by John Spencer late on while, two years later, he helped keep Liverpool out in a game of precious few chances. A smart save to thwart Dietmar Hamann was the pick of his Wembley stops against Newcastle United en route to the Treble in 1999.

LES SEALEY (1990)
A shock choice to replace Jim Leighton after the 3-3 draw with Crystal Palace in the first game, the chirpy Cockney stood up to a physical battering by the Eagles from the outset. Showing no signs of nerves, he repelled an Andy Gray free-kick with his legs after initially yelling: "I can't see" to the wall, and pulled off a vital block during a goalmouth scramble after Lee Martin's match-winning strike. BBC commentator John Motson even remarked: "I wonder if this will be remembered as the Les Sealey cup final."

United's other FA Cup-winning goalkeepers : Roy Carroll (2004), David Gaskell (1963), Tim Howard (2004), Jim Leighton (1990), Harry Moger (1909).

WHO ARE UNITED'S BEST CUP FINAL FULL-BACKS?



ARTHUR ALBISTON (1977, 1983, 1985)
The Scot was selected for his FA Cup debut in the 1977 final against Treble-chasing Liverpool and proved an able deputy for Stewart Houston as he shackled Steve Heighway. After offering his medal to Houston, he went on to become a stalwart on the left of the defence and lifted the cup again in 1983 against Brighton & Hove Albion. He nearly scored against Everton two years later when forcing a save out of Neville Southall, and helped the 10-man Reds keep a clean sheet despite being replaced by Mike Duxbury in extra time.

JOHNNY CAREY (1948)
An astute tactical full-back, the captain proudly lifted the first trophy of Sir Matt Busby's reign aloft after a pulsating battle with Blackpool. Displaying a calm head despite the Reds falling behind, he helped create the equaliser for Jack Rowley with a fine pass to Jimmy Delaney. A team-talk from the skipper at half time, along the lines of: "Don't panic - keep playing football", helped reassure the troops again and his influence on the side's display on the big day cannot be underestimated.

DENIS IRWIN (1994, 1996)
Suspended for the 1999 clash with Newcastle, the defender, who had been denied a final appearance by United in 1990 when at Oldham, was excellent in the 4-0 demolition of Chelsea. An adventurous foray forward led to Eddie Newton's clumsy tackle inside the box that conceded the first penalty, converted by Eric Cantona. Always dependable, he was as assured as ever in the dramatic 1996 triumph over Liverpool and helped keep Roy Evans's 'Spice Boys' in check.

LEE MARTIN (1990)
The Hyde-born defender will forever be remembered for his stunning winner in the 1990 replay against Crystal Palace. Despite suffering cramp as he sprinted forward to latch onto Neil Webb's crossfield pass, he chested the ball down to thump an unstoppable finish high into Nigel Martyn's net. It was one of only two goals he scored for the club but ensured a first trophy for Sir Alex Ferguson as United boss. He also played 88 minutes of the 3-3 draw with the Eagles on the preceding weekend.

United's other FA Cup-winning full-backs : John Aston Snr, Clayton Blackmore, Noel Cantwell, Tony Dunne, Mike Duxbury, John Gidman, Vince Hayes, Gary Neville, Phil Neville, Jimmy Nicholl, John O'Shea, Paul Parker, Mike Phelan, Lee Sharpe (came on at full-back for Irwin in 1994), George Stacey.
