Too much there to argue against tbh, but put simply no I don't think it is. European football is always going in cycles. English football has dominated and is now dipping down again, Liverpool shit, Chelsea old, Arsenal ok but not true contenders, United decent but reliant on Rooney. Real should...

If Marquez or Chyg plays I think I'll cry. I imagine this weekend may give us a clue. If neither of those two feature I can't see them starting Nolan, it's not like they've been featuring regularly.

Didn't think Keita added much yesterday, he wasn't bad and naturally goes forward more than Yaya (his presence certainly helped 1st half) but 2nd half he faded badly.

Sure but it's now well established that Pep's subs are generally total shite. For a man of his intelligence and managerial ability he should have looked to make that sub once he saw us stepping off the gas.

Chygrinskiy Just kidding :lol: Yaya all the way, playing Marquez would be suicide.

I don't have anything against him. I think he's a decent enough bloke and a very good midfielder. He doesn't wind me up like some other hyped up Prem players do.

Yaya most certainly should have come on for Keita yesterday to help solidify our position after the 2nd goal. He'd be a fine choice as CB IMO, he's pretty quick, and is going to be up against Bendtner who's game is based on strength and height anyway (Yaya will win that battle). Milito has been...

Bojan should be ahead of Henry for the next two games, either as a sub or starting.

His energy and support was good as always but his distribution was pathetic yesterday. He produced about one good cross all night and gave the ball away all over the park. Really frustrating game.

He actually was tightly marked all game. He played within himself for most of it, but if you have players on you all the time that means your teammates have space, so he passed to them more often than not. He didn't give the ball away much, it wasn't a bad performance by any means. I expect him...

He was brilliant up until the sending off, he made some very important interceptions when Arsenal did get into decent positions. The penalty was weird, Fabregas basically kicked him, I can see why the ref gave it but there's certainly an argument against it.

I thought Biscuits was outstanding yesterday, particularly first half, arguably our best player.

He was utter shite during his brief cameo. I said before the game that I felt he should play no part, he was never going to be mentally right for this game, and you could see it when he came on. Pedro more than merited starting ahead of him.

Lahm didn't have his best game but he's undoubtedly an excellent full back. The CBs are the real problem and Rooney looked as if he'd destroy them every time he went up against either of them. Looking on the BBC site it seems United fans are still arrogant, thinking Bayern are actually very poor...

Congrats Bayern! They certainly deserved something from the game, United were far too content to sit on their lead. My first reaction was FUCK SAKE not again, but it's actually just a twisted ankle for Rooney, which is good news A) bad for United on all fronts, B) stops Rooney playing and...

Pretty decent half. Fortunate goal for Man U, it's allowed them to sit back and be organised in a typical German style funnily enough. Bayern don't move the ball quick enough sometimes. Prjancic (sp) isn't doing enough in the middle, pretty much all the danger is coming from Ribery (who's...

United are lucky bastards that Robben is out. Plus Sweinsteiger suspended and Ribery only half fit. I think they'll edge it tonight, probs 2-1, but possibly 2-2 if Bayern surprise them.

One of my favourite players as I started to like Barca. A legend of this club, and he was still excellent at PSV after he left as well.

I thought he was excellent yesterday, probs his best game for some time. Really annoying he's now injured again. Hopefully he'll be back for the return leg. Luckily Xavi is back now so at least one of them is fit.

Good game from Milito again. Loved his battle with Aduriz, quality off the ball slap as well, what a hero :lol:
