Big loss for tomorrow night is scholes being injured. He cant do 90 mins, but bring him on in final 30 for some killer passes - and there is a chance.
RVP is on fire at the mo... if i were fergie id be tempted to really change it up totally. Id go 433 .... wellbeck will run at the defence all night, kagawa will run as well. The spanish game isnt as demanding as the premiership and closing down players and stopping them playing is the only way to beat them. Their weakest link is their keeper - a few early balls to test him (assumign united have any possesion!) would be brilliant. On their day United can beat anyone - if they can stop Ronaldo tomorrow they have a chance, otherwise i fear a loss. But as a United fan... these are the games you want to watch.

Great to see some footy chat on here, about time
Two things United must do:
Oh, and you United / Gooner / Hammers fans - try being a Pompey fan. We may not even have a club soon........... Mike. |

I do like the idea of attacking them, will make it a great match to watch, a classic even. But i suspect it will be more of a smash and grab mission I don't think Kagawa is ready for this match, hasn't really been impressive apart from before his injury. He definitely has class though and could step up to the plate. Fergie might start him as we had a pretty strong team Vs Everton. Going to be fascinating to see what team/tactics the gaffer goes for |

Definitely need to score, and i think Rafael and Valencia are the best two wide men we have to try and stop Ronaldo

That was a harsh lesson.
We didn't do enough in the final third but we dominated the entire game. Juventus looked lost and couldn't pass the ball for peanuts outside a few clinical moves doubled up with awful defending. Ambrose should have never played and it showed. At fault for their goals and missed a sitter. Sadly I think English football is in serious decline. Real Madrid are having a very poor season but I just can't see Man Utd beating them. English teams have been comprehensively beaten by average teams in the last few years and I think Real are a bridge too far. |

The English league is the most competetive in the world. In Spain the same two clubs win everything full stop. Italy, the two Milan teams have declined significantly and Juventus are involved in Match Fixing allegations YET AGAIN. IMHO - The only league which is as exciting to watch is the Bundesliga as there are a number of contenders there also.

Would never accuse an Arsenal fan of that! I have respect for Arsenal as a club, way more than Chelsea and City. At least they have some heritage and tradition, which i feel is important. Quote:
Can't believe RVP missed those chances, and Giggs hit it first time!!! Long 3 week wait now |

Wellbeck playing really well, should have scored that second goal. De Gea was just amazing if he saved ronaldo goal , he would have raped in praise by the media .
He is gonna get better soon, even the legend schmiecial said he played well. Van persie played alright. he should have scored that goal tho. but overall i was impressed with the draw. come on united |

Blackburn bought the league and will never get back there. Chelsea the same and don't look like getting back there, Man City bought it and any new competition rules in relation to finances will kill their finances to challenge and Arsenal are miles away from challenging. The gap is widening at the top of the league. Man City had the worst champions league position of any English team ever. Chelsea were the first winners to get knocked out in the group stages the following year. Finishing behind Juventus and Shaktar. We have watched English teams struggle against average European teams in recent years. Yes Chelsea won the CL last year but let's be honest they were completely outclassed in many games. Arsenal looked touch and go this year before finishing second in the group behind Shalke and narrowly ahead of the Olympianikos. Man Utd has about an easy a group as champions league groups can be. Man Utd failed to qualify last year finishing behind Benfica and Basle before getting outclassed by a mid table Althletico Bilbao. Man City finished behind Bayern and Napoli last year before getting knocked out the Europa league by Sporting Lisbon. The English premier is good to watch. I'm not saying that at all. From relatively comfortable qualification for many in champions league groups, too often the English teams are getting outclassed. That wasnt the case a few years back. Man Utd did better than I thought last night. Fair play to them. Nobody can pretend that the runaway league leaders are anywhere near the team they once were?

agree with Kerr, quality of Prem has fallen in last 3 or 4 seasons in my opinion.
City's defence of the title has been disappointing, almost as if winning it once with all the cash was all that mattered. and their efforts in Champs league have been very poor indeed and showed up Mancini lack of competence IMO. to many times English teams are outwitted tactically in europe, even in the Europa league. I dont expect any of the English teams to achieve anything in Europe this year. Spurs have been awful in their euro games, and thats from a season ticket holder. mind you we havent been great in the league either to be fair, we havent performed better this season, I feel that the other teams have underperformed which has enabled the gap to close. |

Omitting Rooney I sort of understand. He played wide in the away leg and wasn't very effective. But Nani? Really, SAF? We'll see I suppose, it's just Nani is very inconsistent.
Rooney to come on as sub to win it 2-1 for United. Ronaldo to score for Real. Mike. |
