Heh, Barca was something else. And Berbatov should have been playing. They should have had three defenders instead of four.
Attack Attack Attack!!!!!

didn't even make the bench, seriously, all "sir" alex had was Owen on the bench for strikers, yeah, bringing on Scholes is really going to help you there.

there was a report that berbatov was so angry about not being on the bench he went M.I.A.

so sick, even from the american media, of hearing how great SAF is and how great england is, wembley, the greatest stadium in the world.

bye bye ManUre

I have to say, the display of Barcelona between minute 45 and minute 70 was one of the best football performances I have éver seen. A fabulous, phenomenal, dazzling symphony of passes. A definition of football sublimity. Xavi - Iniesta - Messi: I wonder if there's ever been a better midfield than this one.

When it comes to ManU. I think Sir Alex Ferguson is a great manager, but I also think he lacks a bit of tactical genius (less than Mourinho, however much I despise that man). The Manchester midfield where outplayed from minute 10 to the final whistle.
The Mancunians have a good defense and a good attack, but their midfield needs some reshaping. I'd buy a couple of creative,not too old midfield players if I were AF. Genre Wesley Sneijder, Mezut Özil, Sebastian Schweinsteiger.

Yeah, paying the transfer for one of those three players would bankrupt even Man Utd.

Manchester United ís considered to be the richest club in the world according to Forbes. If they cannot pay them, nobody can.

You should have seen the game Barcelona 5-0 Madrid in Nov. 2010
Barcelona did that to Madrid almost the whole game.

Yeah, I watched. Barca were great. Well-coached and with at least three world-class players (Xavi, Messi, Villa, maybe Alves). I know that Iniesta is talented, but he is shameful in his diving.

Messi is a legend in the making. All he needs to do now to cement his place in between Pele and Maradona is to win the World Cup with Argentina.

Best team won.
