Plymouth Argyle's manager, Miron Muslic, has expressed his openness to hosting Manchester United at Home Park in the next round of the FA Cup. Despite Plymouth's struggles in the Championship, their recent impressive cup run, including a stunning victory over Liverpool, has generated excitement.
Plymouth Argyle manager Miron Muslic has expressed his enthusiasm for welcoming Manchester United to Home Park for the FA Cup. Despite Plymouth's struggles at the bottom of the Championship , their cup journey has been remarkable, culminating in a stunning fourth-round upset against Premier League leaders Liverpool on Sunday. They had previously defeated Brentford in the third round. United, who secured a late victory against Leicester City, remain in the hunt for the fifth round.
As the current FA Cup holders, having triumphed over Manchester City at Wembley last season, United would be a formidable opponent. When asked about his preferred opponents for the next stage, Muslic simply stated, 'I don't care, anyone.' He cheerfully added about the prospect of hosting Manchester United in Devon, 'They are more than welcome.' Ryan Hardie, the hero of Sunday's match with his second-half penalty goal against Liverpool, is particularly eager for a match-up with Manchester United at Home Park. He told the Mirror, 'I want Manchester United. Bring them here. This day will be cemented in this club's history, in this city's history. It's something we will never forget. When you start your career these are the days you dream of.' Hardie, who had previously missed a crucial extra-time penalty against Chelsea three years earlier, acknowledged the memory was present but he was determined to make amends. He shared, 'I did think about the Chelsea penalty. I was thinking: 'what happens if the same things happens again? ' But I wanted to take this one and get it off my back. I'm more than happy with that. It's a great day for the club and all the fans.' The FA Cup has witnessed several upsets this year, with multiple top English teams exiting early. Chelsea fell to Brighton just 24 hours before Liverpool's defeat, and Arsenal were eliminated by the Red Devils in a third-round penalty shootout at the Emirates
