    Laudrup got everything spot on today.

    Even bringing Vasquez on lulled them into a false sense of security.

    If I'm honest...fantastic win BUT I would rather have won next week for the 3 points....unless we can do the double over them. While they are down lets try and stick the boot in....but I suspect it will be a different Utd we see next weekend.

    superb performance all over the field - never winning at Old Trafford, weve put that to bed! im not so bothered about the competition tbh but that gives us the confidence to take into the league and showed everyone what a very good side we can be - UP THE SWANS!!

    Great win for you today. Had a sneaky feeling that you would get a result after your performance against City.

    At the moment absolutely no credit is being given to the Swans - neither by the pundits nor by Moyes. Scottish twat. <grr>

    I've just finished venting about the coverage....all about how poor MU were. No mention about ML's decision to go 4-4-2 after the red. It worked a treat and TBH Bony should have buried the one at the end. I wonder what odds were given for us doing the double?

    Defence played well today. Apart from the goal Chico was superb and more than made up for it. Amat gets better every game. Taylor looking back to his best and Dwight was solid.

    Tremmel hardly had a save to make.

    I totally agree. League victory probably would've been quite a lot sweeter.

    Still, let's enjoy the historic victory and hope we get something in the league game too.

    Let's win this FA Cup thing to make sure we're back in the Europa League next season.

    Why not? The money we'd earn from the run would fund a player or two and we'd have less games to play.

    As for today, well played, the whole team. First ever win at OT, so that's been put to bed and Bony was just awesome - not just his great goal but his all round display of powerful hold up play. Rio will testify to that!!

    Best thing about winning is we won't have to put up with 'Dai doom and gloom' for a couple of days

    I personally felt the big game changer was Canas on for Shelvey, turned the game in our favour as it meant Man Utd created pretty much nothing at all and got the fans on their back. And yet not a mention.

    Canas was superb, fair play.

    Can someone explain how, in today's modern game where teams are in three competitions plus Europe (for some) rotating the players "upsets" them? What utter tripe. No bullying intended.

    We were magnificent today- Bony was excellent in attack and defense.Saw the replay of his goal and even in slow motion it was like an exorset missile !!!!

    Yes, he's back in hibernation for the time being. Or should that be Daibernation.

    Yes, a fantastic header. Had to generate most of the pace himself.
