And heres a post just for NDN to edit later..... (noone reads soccer posts anyway)
What the **** were we doing? We play good for 7 ****in minutes, then let in a stupid goal as Vidic cant defend correctly and forces Eto'o INSIDE rather than to the byline, and Carrick slides in and his shot gets deflected from right at the keeper to just inside the nearside post. What the ****.
Then we stay OK for a bit, have a few shots, nothing special tho.
Then we go and let Barca do what they do best. Control the midfield. We needed Paul Scholes from the start. He is agressive, and will run about like a crackhead on speed.
Xavi and Iniesta got way to much time on the ball, meant they can spread it to Messi and he doesnt need any introduction. He is the ****.
Ronaldo was god for 10mins, but up front he isnt in the action and cant control the game as much. He is still good, but way more useful vs a team like Barca in midfield, playing Rooney and Berbatov up front from the start.
I love sir Alex to death, he is the greatest manager ever, but i think today he made mistakes. Playing Giggs fromt he start was one. And Anderson.
Shuda played same back 4.
The midfield - Ronaldo, Park, CArrick, Scholes.
Up front - Rooney, Berbatov.
That slows them down and stops them having such clear chances, as rooney can drop back and make a 4-5-1 if we need it.
Basically it all went to ****ing ****.
At least we won it last year
