Manchester United vs Bayern Munich (agg 1-2)

[Safe.]

As I have no interest in any of the remaining games I am relying on them to entertain me, Barca will do that no doubt however Lyon or Bayern are hardly likely to blow anyone away unfortunately. They may, like Inter, play a system that get's a result but it's unlikely to be as enjoyable as watching teams Arsenal, Man Utd or Real Madrid etc in full flow

Bayern and Lyon have got plenty of quality players. I'm pretty sure Robben just blew utd away there.

It's a bummer man

I hate Arjen Robben, but that goal was absolutely brilliant. For some reason Beglin didn't wet himself over that like he did Gibson's strike that the keeper didn't even move for.

ITV = shite.

I think a lot of it is down to ITV paying a shed load of money for the TV rights, and losing the last English team from the competition will effect viewing figures.

....and Beglin is a berk.

Why won't Bayern entertain you? I think they've got some cracking players and their fair share of flair.

because they are not english?
because they are german?

personally, im looking forward to the bayern v lyon game more. mourinho will just try and stifle barca, which will mean boring, defensive football. munich and lyon will both be expecting to win and will both go for it - and i will have my boot firmly in louis camp

Could we, if at all possible, have a person who can ask some decent post match interview questions, that little post match interview with Sir Alex was SHITE! WHY BOTHER!!


And calm..

(and do a little dance of joy about the result)....

Unfortunately, Gabriel Clark is just about the only TV pundit in football that Ferguson enjoys up his backside, so never asks anything interesting.

Bayern's midfield = very underrated. No surprise they won really when you look at Ribery Van Bommel Schweinsteiger and Robben versus the likes of Park, Fletcher and Carrick.

Cracking game that.

They might well do, will have to wait and see. Would just have preferred it, and had far more interest in it, had it been be Arsenal or Man Utd.

Re the sending off, it looks like the ref goes straight to his pocket way before any Bayern players got near him to complain

The United haters are as embarrassing as the United plastics really.

Agreed, Utd haters are just a bunch of mindless sheep. No one should celebrate an English club going out of Europe against a foreign side (but let's not have that whole fugging debate again).

Does this jeapardise the premier leagues 4 champions league places? Now that would be funny.

Plenty wear the green and yellow scarf WITH a current replica shirt

Isn't the real Irony wearing a Green & Yellow Newton Heath scarf - a local team set up by local Lancashire/Yorkshire railway workers designed to play locally, against local sides supported by local people.

You couldn't make it up!

Why is one a mindless sheep for believing that Manchester United have damaged English football at a lower level and played a large part in ensuring that only a select few teams shall ever compete for major honours?

I hated Utd long before sky's money and the premiership made them good

I refer you to my comments on the other 200 threads on here about United in Europe over the years, usually something along the lines of 'Contrary to popular belief Manchester United do not represent a threat to the very existence of professional football in this country' and similar CM bollox thrown in the direction of the mindless anti Utd sheep.

Classic ITV commentary "Both Ferdinand and Vidic have been penetrated twice tonight"

That'd take a year or two of all the English teams doing GACK in both the CL and EL. Rather like how the Scottish teams have been causing them to likely lose their second CL place

Go to bed BOF. I'm off to watch Road Wars - let's hope it's not a fuggin repeat!

Nighty night.
