xtremeganesh : Im very sceptical about Almunia, but he was an absolute beast! Single handedly kept the score low as it was, very impressive.

United love injured defenders! Poor Rio, hes had a tough season so far!

yeh you got to hate injuries, i hate to even be injured for 2 days =P

but we have Wes Brown back though. hopefully rio is back soon.
Yeah actually now I think about it.... I say Rio has had a rough season.....

Big Wesley hasnt played since November! That man must be well fed up, bored at home or something. Maybe he can put a big shift in during the second leg.
Oh Yeah! Great win as United thrash the Gunners 3-1=D Very unlucky for Fletcher, that was a very bad decision from the ref :shock
that was not a red card, a shame it is for fletcher.

but it's still the team that comes first and he would be equally delighted IF united win it, hopefully we can, again.

it's great to be in the final again.

we had 2 games with 2nd leg away and we did great.

now we wait for the barca - chelsea, i reckon the chavs will take this. they will be on fire without a doubt.
argh... well played manure
It is a shame for Fletcher , hopefully the ref will say in his report that it was the wrong decision but I'm not sure it'll do much. Was a good match to watch and the 3rd goal was pretty classy.
Come on barca beat united

barca are the only team who are able to beat united now
micah : Come on barca beat united

barca are the only team who are able to beat united now
Well, not with that performance:wink
I mean, they were extremely lucky to get that late goal. The ref was apparantly a Barca fan because Chelsea should have had at least one penalty. I'm kind of happy they got the late goal seen they're whole starting back four won't be available for the final. Dani Alves and Abidal are suspended and Puyol and Marquez are injured. Also, I'm not afraid of Messi because he just doesn't stand out in big european games.
I have a lot of hope for United to be the first team to win the Champions League two times in a row=D

Come on Reds!:zito
disgraceful referee, im not a chelsea fan or a barca hater.

but my god do i hate barca now.

i hated them before in 99-00. that season's champions league game AIK(swedish team) vs barca.

teams were substituting but barca took their corner anyway and scored. but it shouldnt be allowed.
well no the referee allowed the goal.

and now this, where 3 incidents clearly were penalties. there were 5 incidents in total, 2 of them 50/50.

but seriously that was pathetic, and that wasn't even a red card on abidal, first of all minimal contact second of all any other day he would have given him a yellow, without a doubt.

i feel for chelsea, but they had their chances never the less. and anelka is a lazy bastard who took the game for granted and should be punished.

but but
I just heard that there is some kind of a conspiracy plot going on against Chelsea from the UEFA as they didn't want another English final. It's probably just speculation but that ref should be banned from being in charge of another game in top-flight football.
I have say though that Chelsea should of finished it off earlier with Drogba.

Barca don't deserve to win the cup.....

I think maybe hate is a bit strong? I mean, Barca really didnt do anything wrong, it was all the ref.

I totally agree that Chelsea should have won. I wanted Barca to win but not with that performance. Theyre just so predictable now, all they can do is try passing moves that just wont work against such a strong defence like Chelseas. European teams just dont know how to play the prem teams, all this season the Prem top four have made teams like Inter, R. Madrid and Barca look average at best. I think Hull could pull off a result against them!

Much love for Ballack running down the entire pitch just to berrate the ref in extra time! Amused me so much, but he was kinda justified to I guess.
yeh hate maybe is a strong word because i do after all just hate the ref.

it was more of the memory from 99/00 that got me going last night.

it's a shame to see how much backing a bad ref gets these days.

first of all you can't say 1 word against them. not just that, but the ref's can make mistakes and go unpunished?

i mean it's another thing if a ref didn't give 1 decision. or has made 1 big mistake which can all happen.

but being that bad as yesterday? or making a complete shock of a mistake, surely something should be done against such referees? they need to be good as well, also neutral.
barca do not deserve it
UEFA Cup Semi-Final 2nd leg results:

Shakhtar Donetsk 2 - 1 Dynamo Kyiv Total Aggregate: 3-2
Hamburger SV 2 - 3 Werder Bremen Total Aggregate: 3-3


Bremen go through on away goals.

Shakhtar Donetsk vs Werder Bremen in the UEFA Cup Final in Istanbul.
two good european finals this year.

obviously i want united to win the champ league, but it should be said, it should have been against chelsea instead of barce. but thats platini for you. everyone knows he hates the english league for being too dominent.
but i am also glad that it is barce and not chelsea...again. that referee should be banned from european games
it will be a hell of a lot easier against barce than chelsea, and that would be true even if they had their defense intact.
messi will be easily stopped by evra, and ferdi and vidic will handle eto'o and henry/bojan, with no problems. the only ones that worry me are iniesta and xavi.
messi reminds me of ronaldo a few years ago, amazing except for the big games, too easily marked out of the game.

i also want shakhtar to beat bremen, but it will be a good game, both stylish attacking play.
