YEOVIL 0-0 MANCHESTER UNITED
1: We’re off folks! I forgot to mention that it’s Jose Mourinho’s 55th birthday today. BBC reporter Dan Walker presented him with a bottle of cider as a present, but Jose said that he would never try it! Cheek, eh?

TRUE PRO
19:45: Now THIS is a story.
New Yeovil signing Alex Fisher, who signed from Motherwell today, has driven down from Scotland today.
After a nine-hour journey, he arrived at the stadium at 18:45 and was told that he’s got a place on the bench tonight!
LIFE AND DEATH
19:40: Yeovil boss Darren Way is currently telling his story about nearly losing his life in a high-speed car accident.
It’s really emotional stuff to listen too. Fingers crossed his side can do themselves proud.
ELSEWHERE…
19:35: I’ll forgive you if the other FA Cup match slipped your mind. Sheffield Wednesday are hosting Reading at Hillsborough, and there’s about 12 people watching…

TWITTER ROUND-UP
Rob: Darren Way is an absolute top bloke and has been through so much, personally. You and you’re team have earned this special night. Enjoy every minute of it!
Steve: In honour of tonight’s televised game I think I’ll do my own half and half thing. Glass half full with JD and the other half Coke should do just fine. A couple of them and the game might seem remotely watchable.
Ducker: Buzzing for this game! Alexis Sanchez making his debut tonight. Let’s have it hat-trick, lad!
WHEN YEOVIL BROKE THE BANK OF ENGLAND
19:20: Remember the year 1949? Me neither. But I’ve heard it was an absolute banger to use the language of the era…
Yeovil, who are struggling near the bottom of Two, once completed one of the biggest upsets in the history of the FA Cup when they beat top-flight Sunderland
It doesn’t sound like much of an achievement now, but Sunderland’s spending had seen them labelled the “Bank of England club,” while Yeovil were in the Southern League.

GET THE DRINKS IN!
19:15: Yeovil boss Darren Way would love to toast an FA Cup shock at Huish Park by sharing a glass of cider with Manchester United boss Jose Mourinho.
I wouldn’t had your breath, Darren.
The Glovers are the lowest ranked side left in the competition, currently sitting fourth bottom of League Two.
Regardless of the team Mourinho brings to Somerset, it would be a seismic result should Way’s side produce an upset.
Bristol City boss Lee Johnson had bought a £450 bottle of Barca Velha red wine to share with the Portuguese coach when they met in the quarter-finals of the Carabao Cup in December.
Way accepts it is probably a tall order, but hopes to be able to offer the United boss something different should they get a chance to share a drink afterwards.
He said: “I’m going to probably go one step further and give him both options, so I’ll try and find a nice bottle of wine and somebody’s actually sourcing that, who I trust, Domenico of Tamburino’s (restaurant in Yeovil).
“I want to make sure that we can offer him a good Somerset cider of Thatchers, because he’s coming down to Somerset, so it’s important that he is actually privy to what we drink down here.”

EARLY BIRD…
19:10: These Yeovil fans are eager. There’s still about an hour until kick-off and the home stands are already full!
10/10 for commitment, 0/10 for style.
GOLDEN GOAL
19:05: I’ve heard it all now.
Alexis Sanchez will score his first goal for the Red Devils after just 68 minutes, according to the boffins at spread-betting firm Sporting Index.
Sanchez hasn’t traditionally waited long to impress his new fans when joining a new club – though he has never scored on his debut for any of his European teams.
Great bet. Where can I lose my money?

MEAN MACHINE
19:00: “Referencing a terrible 2001 movie about prisoners playing football featuring Vinnie Jones, Jamie?”
Damn right.
I just wanted to let you know that Manchester United have won all three of their previous FA Cup ties against Yeovil by an aggregate score of 13-0.
‘HE LOVES TO PLAY’
18:55: Jose Mourinho has been speaking to the BBC ahead of tonight’s clash.
When asked about Alexis Sanchez, he responded: “Alexis Sanchez had a couple of training sessions with us.
“He was not in his best condition but we think the best way for him to adapt and recover his normal fitness is to play. He loves to play and wants to play. For us it is not about Alexis it is about the match and the FA Cup. The FA Cup can have an incredible day tomorrow, but hopefully not tonight.
“I love the feeling of the Cup but I love the fact we have travelled far and brought Manchester United to a place we are not coming often. We were speaking about it [a new deal] for quite a time but no pressure as the club know clearly that I want to stay. This is where I want to be and where I love to be.”

TEAM NEWS – MANCHESTER UNITED
18:50: As previously mentioned, new signing Alexis Sanchez has been named in the starting line-up. I bet he always dreamed of playing alongside Scott McTominay…
Juan Mata is the only survivor from the Manchester United team which beat Burnley.
The other highlight is the return of Michael Carrick in midfield after a four-month absence from the starting XI.
Regular first-team players like Jesse Lingard, Romelu Lukaku and Ashley Young are among the substitutes if things go pear-shaped.
YEOVIL vs MANCHESTER UNITED
18:45: Jose Mourinho has made lots of changes for tonight’s clash but Alexis Sanchez making his debit has stolen the headlines.
Manchester United XI: Romero, Darmian, Lindelof, Rojo, Shaw, Carrick, Herrera, Mata, McTominay, Sanchez, Rashford.
18:43: Gary Lineker has gone and ruined the surprise folks. He’s broken the news via Twitter that Alexis Sanchez does indeed start for Manchester United tonight. Debut against Yeovil in the FA Cup fourth round – a night he will never forget…
BEFORE WE GET STARTED…
18:40: I think we need to address the elephant in the room. I’ll let you decide what I mean by that…
Yes, I’m referring to Arsenal’s imminent signing of President Donald Trump.
Die-hard Gunners supporter Piers Morgan has decided to take recruitment into his own hands by asking Trump to replace Arsene Wenger as Arsenal manager.
He tweeted: “The moment I invite President Trump to be Arsenal’s new manager – because he’d build a strong defensive wall, have an attacking philosophy & want to win big trophies at all costs. See his hilarious response on Sunday night, ITV, 10pm.”
Haven’t Arsenal been through enough, Piers?

EVENING
18:45: Welcome to our LIVE coverage of Alexis Sanchez… I mean, Yeovil vs Manchester United from Huish Park.
There’s not many players capable of dwarfing an FA Cup fourth-round tie, but the Chilean is certainly one of them.
Oh, Wayne Shaw is another but for very different reasons.
Anyway, Sanchez completed his switch from Arsenal to Jose Mourinho’s side on Monday and travelled to Somerset with the rest of the squad.
He’s expected to make his debut after Jose promised to name a strong starting XI.
We’ll find out shortly. Let’s get going!
