Fair play to ManUre; wasn't pretty but was ultimately effective. Barca had shedload of possession but never really made that gilt-edged opening. Tevez had a great game, the work he got through was amazing.

Messi's the world's most overrated player, by the way. Lots of pretty runs but can't cross a road. I'd take Chavnaldo any day of the week.

It's the hair imo. The supposed worlds best player must have a hairband/long hair. That or the must be south american.

Couldn't get on CW at all last night, but Mitchell you were in my thoughts! Was desperately hoping Jester would go down, them and Wrexham down would have been amazing

Haha, Sven sacked. Crazy stuff. I don't agree with the style he plays but he's put together a reasonable list, who are young and need to gel together. Would've thought he'd deserve another season in the job.
Poor form from Shiwatra IMO.
Haha Sven sacked, that's crazy. Odds are City won't be where they are now come next season.

Shall make for a good game tonight. Expect a big improvement from last week and that 1st goal will be crucial as to how the game develops. So hard to tell what kinda match we are in for.
He shouldn't of been allowed to buy the club in the first place IMO. Otherwise what is the point of the 'fit and proper persons' test then?

Can't say I remember him making many crosses, sounds like you just wanted to squeeze your clever little phrase in. He looked dangerous everytime he got the ball just the other attacking options were poor.

Also how dire was chief poseur when he got on? Two backpasses to the keeper and barely looked interested.

Paul Scholes... scores goals.

Agree with Scaly, Messi was just about their only player who scared me, personally.

Like in the Nou Camp, Ferguson got it tactically spot on, they may have had all the ball, but again they created nothing with it, we looked far more likely to get a second than they did to equalize, for most of the game. Last ten minutes were nervy as **** however.

On our way to Moscow. :)

Agreed. Was bricking it for the last 10-15, especially that Henry header....

Scholes = deserves that, may have had a shocker of a season, but 13 years of greatness and he deserves a chance to play in the final.

Yeah, that was the big problem. Could never really get the ball near the opposition goal. Even when we did the very few times, we weren't hitting shots on target mostly.

Haha. You can't be serious?

He just looked so dangerous yesterday, quite easily the most penetrating player I have ever seen when watching football (for about 7 years), looked so dangerous everytime he was on the ball. He did make a few crosses, but when you can beat defenders (and class ones at that) with the ease that he did, I couldn't care less.
