Phil Neville,
"The difference between United's form going into this final and the 1999 Champions League success that I was part of comes down to momentum.
Back then, we had just won the Premier League and then the FA Cup.
But there are still similarities this time - things that were drummed into you at Old Trafford when I was there, and still are under Mourinho."

So, this united team aren't a patch on the 99 team, haven't just won the FA Cup and haven't just won the league title and aren't in the Champions League final, yep loads of similarities.
