Um...they played only one decent team in that cup run.
The third round...drawn home to us...they eeked out a 2-1 extra time win against the run of play (how typical of them) and then that was it.
Didn't play another quality team.

I beg to differ-it was worth a lot to urinate upon Hoddle from a great height :D.

To put it simply, Liverpool didn't win the Premiership either, did it? Manchester had a few injuries, so we actually have an excuse.....Let's hear all the sorry excuses from the Liverpool fans....
Manchester had a few injuries, did "it"? That's the reason for the ********-awful performances at Anfield, at Highbury, at St James', against West Ham and Chelsea at home? Give over. Quite apart from the fact that we had Owen, Berger, Barmby, Babbel, Gerrard, Dudek, Vignal, Carragher and Riise out at one stage of the season or another, we also had our Manager missing for five months. If you think that's an excuse, then ask yourself how much worse United's season would have been had Bryan ********ing Robson been in charge for most of it. Or how about Arsenal under Pat Rice? Chelsea under Gwyn Williams? Leeds under Brian Kidd?
United under Robson for five months. LOL! I think "it" would have struggled even more than "it" did at the hands of Demento's inept struggle to get all his expensive toys in the one basket, don't you?
Sorry pal, but you need to step back and think before you commit your view of this world to this forum. I thought the other thread where you have Phil Neville as a starting centre-back for England at the 2006 World Cup may have been an aberration, but from this further evidence, it appears I was being much too kind to you.

And we have the strikers :). Sadly we have a rubbish defence to counter-balance this.
