Quote Robbie Rotten="Robbie Rotten"Why start Milito at left back?'"
As opposed to who?
Quote Robbie Rotten="Robbie Rotten"Why bring Ibra off but leave Keita on the field and then proceed to work the ball into wider areas and cross it into under 6ft players?'"
He has done nothing since February. A better question would have been why did he start with Zlatan in the first place.
Quote Robbie Rotten="Robbie Rotten"Pep is a great manager but he shown a bit of inexperience in a really tough situation IMO. Ibra is struggling, no doubt, but he is still an undoubted threat, especially compared to Keita. I thought the starting formation was really strange, I couldn't understand why Milito was at left back, Pep realized after the break that it really wasn't working, but it was too late, Barca needed to score early if they were to have a chance, instead they tried to stroll their way into the game. They left too much to be done in the second half, the first half was really poor whilst it took them about half an hour to really go for it in the second.'"
Barça went at Inter from the whistle. Inter's first shot on goal was in the secon half. Inexperience? He hasn't had two full seasons yet. Of course he's going to show a bit of experience.
Most folk here are happy, yes happy, because Barça played football. I guarantee tomorrow's papers are full of praise for Barça for attempting to play football rather than going out of the competition. And as for Mourinho, is he trying to compensate for something...

| Quote Lord God Jose Mourinho="Lord God Jose Mourinho"A deliberate hand ball is a bookable offence (a sending off offence if the opposition are in the act of scoring). Is every handball a booking?'"
The incident in question was not handball it was ball to hand. If a player is laying prone injured on the edge of the box and an opposing player accidentally trips over him is it freekick?? I would say not, the same as the ball accidentally striking the hand??.....

| Is there a more overrated player that Ibrahimovic? 46million Euro's plus Eto'o I bet Inter coulden't wait to get him on a plane and sign the deal!
one of those players who looks world class against lower/mid table league plodders, but goes missing in big games for both club and country.

| Shocking comments about Barcelona from some on here.
Don't you know that everyone connected with them always help old ladies cross the road, and every time they see a kid on the street who looks a bit thin they taken them in and make sure they have a good meal?
It's why last weeks arduos trip to Milan took them 5 hours longer than it takes anyone else to drive it.

Fifth place finish would not mean failure - Mancini news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/footbal ... 652108.stm
In some ways I agree. I don't think 4th should have been a target in the first place this season. But when a side sack a manager when the team is in 6th place because they team aren't in line for their targets, when the club say that their goal is a top 4 finish, then not finishing 4th is a clear failure.

| Quote Robbie Rotten="Robbie Rotten"You seem to be having a similar problem with Berbatov. He's very similar to Ibra only not as good. I think after RvN left, United changed the way they played. They dropped the traditional 4-4-2, instead they built around Ronaldo's ability to score out wide, whilst they never had a 'target man', their tactics relied upon players supporting and breaking into the box, Ronaldo was by the best at this, but Rooney also done it really well as they aren't/weren't pure strikers, they preferred dropping deep.
Since Ronaldo's gone, United are kinda stuck in transition, you no longer have the goals coming from out wide, instead they're mainly coming from the striker, which hasn't happened since Ruud was there. I feel if you want to return to the very top, you need a striker to partner/back up Rooney, I'm not sure if Villa would be the best candidate, I think Benzema would be class if available (despite his form in Spain), whilst it's been mooted Higuain would be available, again, he'd be class at any of the top sides in England IMO. I think you need a striker, a centre midfielder and your defence has been very threadbare with injuries this year. If you can sign a top passing midfielder to partner Fletcher/Hargreaves (I like Carrick but he isn't top top drawer, whilst Anderson was still struggling before his injury), then you'll be hard to stop.'"
I think Fergie is looking to address the striker issue with us being linked with Mauro Boselli and the signing of Javier Hernadez with only Berbatov on his way.
I think Carrick is on his way in the summer his form has been poor all season if i could pick one player to replace him in midfeild it'd be Milner. I do think we need to bring in another midfielder and a left winger (Giggs can't carry on forever) as Nani seems to struggle on the left imo.
If we can keep hold of Vidic it'll be a massive boost with Evans playing more and more because of Rio's injurys, we've already brought Smalling in so i thing 4 halfs should be enough.

Aye, we definitely need another striker.
Quote mutt1="mutt1"I think Carrick is on his way in the summer his form has been poor all season if i could pick one player to replace him in midfeild it'd be Milner. I do think we need to bring in another Centre midfielder and a left winger (Giggs can't carry on forever) as Nani seems to struggle on the left imo.'"
Milner's been linked quite heavily with us, we'd need to sign him before the WC though, otherwise I can see his price rocketing afterwards.
There are also some rumours of Carrick + £15-20m for Modric. Can't see there been any truth in that. What's been quite clear this season is that Fergie doesn't trust Carrick as much as he used to, he's also been taken off penalty duties since his horror spot kick at Burnley earlier in the season.
I can't see us offloading Anderson this summer, I reckon Fergie will give him another year to try and prove himself. He's got talent, he just needs to show it on a regular basis. Hopefully, Hargreaves will be fit for the start of the season. Quote mutt1="Fergie"It'll be like a new signing.[/url
Nani has had a good end to the season, we need him to continue that form into next year.
Quote mutt1="mutt1"If we can keep hold of Vidic it'll be a massive boost with Evans playing more and more because of Rio's injurys, we've already brought Smalling in so i thing 4 Centre halfs should be enough.'" '"
If we keep Vidic I'm not sure how I'll cope with the excitement levels.
GK, AM and ST are our main priorities.

| We really need to get one before half time, we're playing pretty well but we're not doing quite enough with the ball. Dirk missed a glorious chance.
Glad Hamburg are winning.

I'm now referring to him as Bret Hart after how Pleat described his goal.
Long way from becoming the best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be though.

| Absolutely gutted. Thought we done enough over both legs to go through. It's gutting to go out to away goals but rules are rules. The tie was a great tie, fiercely competed by two sides performing well short of the standards they've set themselves in recent seasons.
The lads done us proud tonight with an inspired performance, just a shame that the tie was decided by a disallowed goal away from home, it deserved much better.
