    Its funny how in the space of a week, we went from "Going to be a record beating" to "We can take them on their home turf", all thanks to a draw which the other team dominated in and our reserves beating a poor Newcastle side.

    Even getting me optimistic though :P

    I don't think many of the record beating people are the same. I thought after the teams came out that Bayern would win 2-0 or so, 1-1 with 2 of the players most likely to exploit Uniteds main weakness picking up suspensions definitely exceeded expectations, why wouldn't people be more optimistic?

    Wow, some great memories in there.

    I doubt they will make the mistake of not playing mandzucik again and isnt Dante coming back in for them? Im assuming united will play the same way again, hope to get a goal through set piece, counter attack, bit of luck or bayern mistake and if they dont, throw caution to the wind about the 70th minute. If bayern score first or early though, I can see a potential demolition job and I mean on the scoreboard, it will be a demolition job where it doesnt count, i.e. possession and chances, let see if they can muster more than "sterile domination" tonight...

    Watching Paul Scholes PL 100 club on Sky,roaring at the telly,

    I think i need to calm down :)

    The beauty of his goals are just outstanding.To watch the little magician at his best was great to see and I'm glad I got to see him plenty of times live.

    Is the goal against Boro in there the goal which he scores where he hits it first time and it just goes as straight as a arrow flying into the top corner ?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 35,338 ✭✭✭✭The_Kew_Tour


    Jesus I could name 20 top corner or net buster goals Scholes has scored off top my head right now.

    He scored fair few headers.

    When the draw was made I was philosophical and would have been happy if we kept it respectable but all those thoughts are gone out the window. WIN OR NOTHING!!!!!

    The clocks have started to move very slowly.. Almost time to dig out my lucky 99 jersey.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,194 ✭✭✭✭IvySlayer


    Paul Scholes goal vs Barcelona <3

    Ronaldo goes past Yaya Toure, loses the ball to Zambrotta, rolls to Scholes, BOOM 1-0

    Messi could only watch :P

    De Gea; Jones, Smalling, Vidic, Evra; Fletcher, Carrick; Valencia, Rooney, Kagawa; Welbeck

    Evra starts :(

    Evra better give a sh*t tonight or we are gone. Im sickened he's starting to be honest. Happy with the other 10 tho


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,689 ✭✭✭sky88

    I share your fears on evra. Hopefully he can manage to stay awake for 90 mins, although I fear we will lose at least one goal because of him.
    Happy enough with the rest of the side. Kagawa needs to show up tonight.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,134 ✭✭✭✭Rayne Wooney


    Looks like Kroos will be the anchor for Bayern we need Fletch Kag and Rooney to press him hard, mistakes from him could see us scoring

    Bet Robben is delighted. Long night ahead for him.

    Lahm at FB will be a danger tonight, watch him drive Bayern forward. Needs to be tracked perfectly for 90+ mins


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,211 ✭✭✭Owen_S


    I thought Buttner did very well recently :/

    I don't know if Ole was taking the piss on the football fantasy show when he was giving out his best all time 11 players he played with but he mention Scholes and how he could not header.

    I just thought he must be taking the piss,Scholes was a great header of the ball and scored I'm sure plenty of goals with his head.

    Kagawa at No10 with Rooney up top and Welbeck from the left I'd guess.
