get benitez back. lfc were a proper team with him, he built a world class midfield of gerrard, mascherano and alonso. not to mention torres, reina and even arbeloa who's madrids first choice right back.
true rooney didnt deserve motm but he speaks english unlike valencia and they have to award it to someone after a tv interview. thats my theory anyway.
2 assists and a goal for valencia, he's a pretty big player for us now. and thats 25 points out of 27 in the league, great form.
that was hard to watch, totally out played over the 2 legs. dont think we were that bad just they were a lot better. bilbao are 7th in their league, even if you take out madrid and barca they'd still only be 5th. just goes to show how spanish teams are more techically capable than british teams, i've never seen man utd pass and move like they did, we're probably going have change out style of play or steal some of their players :)
robben, ribery and gomez are world class. dont know about their defence though but they'll give madrid or barca a tough time for sure.
arsenal pay £100,000 a week? gtfo!
agreed. all the focus will be on united and how bad they were but bilbao were exellent.
ye 4-4-2 just doesnt work in europe but fergie has to play 2 strikers because we have too many centre forwards. dare i say fergie might be going a bit soft?
we shouldnt have played 4-4-2 against barca but fergie just couldnt leave chicharito on the bench because of the season he had. i think he will defo play 4-3-3 in the 2nd leg our we will be getting beat.
lucky to get away with just 2-3. i know their 2nd goal was offside but they created numerous chances and but for de gea who was our best player it could have been 4 or 5. it was really hard to watch.
we just got totally out played by a team that is 5th in la laga...at home. and this is a match where we dearly miss vidic, he would have had llorente in his pocket but players like him and streller bullied our defence once again.
i still think we can beat them ...
we were bad but de gea was our best player tonight. open your eyes or stop trolling.
we didnt play great but they werent exactly peppering our goal. we deserve the win just for the way rio and evans defended. the hand ball on adebayor was kind of harsh but it was the right decision.
lfc are not going to win a lot with the likes of downing, henderson, adam and spearing. winning the league cup is one thing but you need decent players to get in the top 4.
same story in europe this season, totally out played once again at home. maybe theres too many young players on the pitch. as soon as scholes came on it was pretty much even. or maybe its the system, 4-4-2 doesnt really work in europe, teams just go to old trafford and dominate possesion in midfield.
yup that was a terrible dive by rafa, difference is we admit it and arent delusional.
its just the world balancing itself out, you cant have ramsey score without consequences. the next time torres scores i predict a super volcano going off somewherre.
lmao! that rio tevez picture is priceless. looks like he's trying to pull sumin out his arse.
get rid of him, sell him for 20 million, im sure some team abroad would have him. he's nothing but trouble.
that was easier than i thought it was going to be. liverpool weren't a threat at all.
hopefully they do something before hand to agree that they both shake just to take the egde off of it. cant see them pulling out.
i thought carrick got the ball but it was a definite pen but we got that awful decision against newcastle so maybe it just evened out. but we had 10 shots on target and 19 attempts so if fulhum got anything out of that it would have been disgrace.
