    Ill be rooting for Giuly tonight. Great pace, a bit of a headless chicken, and not a good finisher. But Ill always love him for that goal against Milan!

    Nice one to Setanta for showing the other match tbh.

    Utd. looking a bit shaky atm imo

    ronnie not having his best game. vidic has just gone down too, and it takes a lot to do that!
    utd need to relax a bit more when they have the ball. they seem rushed and roma are taking the advantage

    Looking shaky because we're down to ten for now.

    We're dominating possession but theres no end product.

    O'Shea on to replace Vidic

    :(

    Be surprised if Ronaldo finishes the game, thumping header. I was thinking about sticking 100 on him to score :(

    Vidic injury looked nasty, hardly inspiring seeing o'shea and wes brown in the back 4

    Roma are terrible, united fully deserve to be 1 up.

    Bojan, what a 17 year old little machine! one of the youngest scorers in the CL I think.

    United still look vulnerable at the back imo and are missing Hargreaves. Roma coming at them through the middle, far too easily at times.

    Surprised O'Shea went CB, thought it would have been Brown in there with O'Shea out right.

    United's best player is Rooney.

    Great goal.



    Vucinc is going to kill Ireland :)

    Yeah, Ronaldo only scores against relegation fodder, never in big games. It's only the CL quarters, betcha he would score in a CL semi final or an FA Cup final :p

    2nd youngest.

    Poor goalkeeping from Neuer for Barca's goal.

    Brilliant turn by Rooney to create the Ronaldo goal.

    I already said Neuer was meant to have only been a mediocre keeper who had one fantastic game.

    Whatever about John O'Shea, Wes Brown has been impeccable this season, and has been a permanent fixture in the best defence in the league this season.

    imo he's been a passenger in an otherwise quality united defense. he wont be starting there next season.

    second half just kicked off, both these games are only appetizers for tomorrow night anyway :D
