Manchester United: 5 Reasons They'll Win The FA Cup This Year

5. They Are Hungry To Win It Again

It is astonishing to think that it has been nearly nine years since Manchester United last won the FA cup when they beat Millwall 3-0 at the Millennium Stadium in Cardiff. Since then they have been runners up twice, to Arsenal in 2005 and Chelsea in 2007 and they still remain the most successful team in the competition's history with 11 wins. Knowing how competitive Sir Alex is and how success is woven into the fabric of Manchester United he will be itching to win it for a 12th time and he will be making it perfectly clear that he would love an FA Cup to go with what should be a straightforward 20th Premier League title. There is also the fact that a few high profile players within the United squad have never won the FA Cup, most notably Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand, so for those players it will be of paramount importance to win such a well loved and respected cup competition.
