One thing about Liverpool playing ugly is that they have $h!t players. ManU have Rooney, Scholes, Evra, Carrick and even Tevez yet they choose to play ugly even when they have the defence to cope with counter attacks.

Roma have a nerar perfect record at home they've been in supreme form in the league; many predicting them to beat united. Fergie constantly gets criticised for only knowing one way to play football, with no tactical acumen.
So united go to Rome and win 2-0 without breaking out of 3rd gear and everyone is complaining. At the same time Benitez gets lauded for being a genius by playing worse football against 10 men and winning.
We have played attacking football in the past and got picked off by defensively smart teams in the past which resulted in uniteds poor record in Europe. Fergie has learnt that you never win anything in Europe playing the way we do in the league, so he changed the way we play away from home. We have drawn 2 and won 3 games, conceding 4 goals and scoring 8 goals along the way.
The team has shown against Liverpool, Arsenal and recently Villa that we are the best side in Europe going forward. The team has the best defence in Europe and has shown that when needed to they can shut out any attack.
Tonights performance may not have been as exciting as the game against Villa, but we won 2-0 away from home against the most inform in Italy. We could even have scored more than the 2 goals.
Regarding Ronaldo he gets labeled a one trick pony with no end product for 3 years and then next he is being labeled as a player who does nothing else but score. He showed in the fiorst 3/.4 years of his united career that he can put any defender on his ass if he wanted to and now he is showing that he is the deadliest player in the world; Top scorer in the best league in the world and top scorer in the best club competition in the world.
Since he scored against Roma last season he has scored 6 goals in 6 knockout games against Roma, Milan and Lyon. No other player has a record as good as that and in the past 2 years no other player has been as good as Ronaldo, he is by far the best player in the world.
If we get to the semis Barca would be a good game, we have better defenders so I am confident that if the game turned into a shoot out we could beat them. However despite their awful form they have the potential to be unstoppable.
PS LRD was right we are the best team in the world

Yeah i was defo on Arsenal for playing so pragmatic esp Wenger on and on about beautiful football then when he sees the chance to get far in Cl he does whatever it takes like those he goes after himself. i think liverpool had alot after them so i think dont that is a good example.robert wrote:Funny how we are now the sacrificial lambs of all that is wrong with football.

I wished i could have been old enough to have seen some of those games.not so important that Ajax wopped those teams asses but that they tried.
Im not going after Man utd in particular because i always say this but i cant speak for others who might have an agenda.

I think the ABUs are afriad that united can play amazing attacking football and rip apart a team that almost beat Chelsea, Liverpool and Arsenal in their backyards and then go to the home of a team with an amazing home record and stifle the opposition while scoring two goals.

Do you really want to be compared to Liverpool "shit on a stick FC?
Are Roma in anyway defensively smart?We have played attacking football in the past and got picked off by defensively smart teams in the past which resulted in uniteds poor record in Europe.
Fergie has learnt that you never win anything in Europe playing the way we do in the league
Except that's exactly how ManU have been playing in the league for most of the season. Prove it, attack and dare to leave the defence exposed.
The team has the best defence in Europe and has shown that when needed to they can shut out any attack.
Most dangerous, not best
He is the deadliest player in the world.
It was the same with this round vs Roma. Atleast Barca don't have shitty layers like Mancini and Taddei so we might get a game.
If we get to the semis Barca would be a good game, we have better defenders so I am confident that if the game turned into a shoot out we could beat them. However despite their awful form they have the potential to be unstoppable.

I am without internet for the entire week, I cant believe, just in the CL finals.
I have to be fast, but Ronaldo was superb, great, is nice to see him proving the ones who doubt about him (including me) and performing in such big clash.
Ferdinand was immense in this game, he was truly WC class and is nice to see Rooney scoring, even some United supporters were starting to get on him, and I really like his football.
Sorry Roma, but for me United is in the semi and I hope they rape Barcelona.

Anyway, I just watched the highlights, Roma arent a team that deserve to be so far in the CL...BUT if a team can play so brilliant (throughout the year) the deserve to win it all...to UTD says I..allthough I would have preferred Madrid. Without Snejider of course.
This team miss the joie de vivre of the 1999 team...but it comes very close.

Great post back Rez, you really should post a bit more. I don't like to sound to um boastful, but clearly this team is the standout best team in the world since Barca 2-3 years ago. Doing a very good job away to a very good team with a great home record cannot be seen as a bad thing no chance.
At home 9 times out of 10 we play great football and look to attack. As shown v milan and roma last year. the 3-2 was a very good match forgotton a bit by the 7-1.
This team is dominating it's league, so unlike Milan or Pool situations the dispute about how good the team really is surely cannot be there.
Barca on there day can beat anyone. That fixture will be a blockbuster if they get it together. But hopefully we'll rape them indeed

Horrible display? dear oh dear. It was the perfect away performance. Of course they would have to come at man utd in the second half, they couldn't go to old trafford with anything less than a win. But not surprising we picked them off and basically ended the tie.
You claimed the team plays rubbish football every week COTR, yet for some reason it keeps getting compared to the best brazil teams, and on the weekend displayed the best performance you will see anywhere all season.
You appear more deluded than when pool were gonna win the title.
Ronaldo > Best Northern Ireland's finest nothing on this guy
The villa match was one of the only games this season I have enjoyed lrd and actually thought you played great, watchable football in.
For most of the season, it has felt like watching united tonight. Your success is built purely on a brilliant defensive partnership (the real stars of this team). Ronaldo then somehow seems to be getting all the breaks in the box. This can be attributed to immense luck, or he is just a brilliant poacher.
I used to really enjoy watching united in europe. The football was great, the team had great balance and fergie actually went out to attack. Nowadays rooney is pretty much always played as a left back away from home, ronaldo just spends the entire match trying to beat everyone himself and he starts people like giggs and park over strikers like tevez and saha.
Now you really cannot blame me for not enjoying this '$h!t on a stick'
BULLSHIT Sir! That statement BOLDED is nonsense. Ye is only saying it to use it as a way of making a nasty comment about us. Ye is a conte..trying to be smart, ye is not!
Also yer team is 4th rate and less Torres goaks a $h!t and UTTERLY awful football team!
Please make yourself look like a conte....ye are!
