Manchester United fans appear to be rattled ahead of next month’s FA Cup clash.

Romelu Lukaku #9 of Manchester United gives a thumbs up to his teammate against Manchester City at NRG Stadium on July 20, 2017 in Houston, Texas.

Manchester United have been drawn against Tottenham for the FA Cup semi-final at Wembley next month.

United beat Spurs 1-0 earlier this season at Old Trafford in a hard fought win, but lost 2-0 in their last clash, which took place at Wembley.

Red Devils supporters are under no illusions the game will be tough, with Tottenham unbeaten domestically in 2018.

This week United posted a tweet urging Tottenham to watch out, with striker Romelu Lukaku ‘on a mission’.

The problem is that such is the worry at United amid their pragmatic but unconvincing form, is that fans are fearing the message will come back to haunt them.

Lukaku failed to score in his two matches against Spurs this season.

In fact Lukaku’s record against Tottenham is terrible. In 10 career games against them he has won only once, and scored just once, losing five.

Fans are worried and fear another Tottenham shutout against Lukaku at Wembley, which says a lot about how far the North London side have come in recent seasons.
