    As if they've ever let that stop them before.

    But yeah i am looking forward to it so long as we have a go (which hopefully we will since we had success doing that at City). Its when you get these ties that the champions league really starts.

    Im not crazy enough to think we're favourites but im quietly optimistic.

    I see us scoring away and I think we'll win at OT so it'll be a case of can we score enough at home.

    Should be great games to watch at least, the CL deserves something special after the travesty of Chelsea cowering their way to the trophy last year.

    No reason why united cant beat real but Ronaldo will step up his game even more on his return to OT. He'll want to show SAF what he is missing.

    Won't it be typical for Ronaldo to play a blinder against us? Thats the danger we are facing and we will need to prepare. No better person to do that than SAF. It will be a cagey affair but let's hope RVP and Rooney are on form as I can see Ronnie scoring...

    indeed, in reality if we are not good enough to beat Real we don't then deserve to be in the competition
    we need to put players with energy in mid to close them down and leave no space for CR

    I replied about the inter team on another thread but can repeat here: the 2009 side was essentially still Mnacini's.

    The 2010 side was jose's: he got in eto, milito, sneijder etc

    That's very funny and rich, as Man U themselves 'cowered' their way winning the Champion League in 2008.

    Remember how you placed your whole team behind the ball against Barca, and somehow snatched the win? Criminal.
    Remember how you squeaked past Chelsea in the finals?

    You guys should be the last ones to talk about injustice in football. And you certainly offer nothing special.

    Bit rich coming from the premier league and CL whipping boys.

    Remind me how many time Arsenal have won the CL? or how great it is finishing fourth all the time.

    That's the difference. I know Arsenal aren't very good.

    But you guys seem to think you're this top class team, who'll outclass Real. If you beat them somehow, it'll be down to you defending for your lives. Seeing your defence in action recently though, that'll never happen. <laugh>

    As I stated previously, lay off Chelsea, as you won the Champions League in a similar fashion in 2008. Don't act like you blew the competition away. The only team you blew away were Roma.

    <laugh><laugh> Man U have as much as style, as Rooney has tact.
    Going out in style my arse! <laugh>

    You'll crash out in an embarrassing manner. Honestly, if you lose, it'll be by a large margin. Your full backs are below par, while Real's strength is on the flanks.

    What would an Arsenal fans know about style <doh>

    You lot have been claiming to play the best football for years despite putting everyone into a coma and generally being **** at actually winning games.

    As for embarrassing, worry about yourself. Going out to Real even by a couple goals isn't that embarrassing, at least we'll manage a shot.

    Typical Manc. That's your idea of 'good football'? Winning? Obviously right now, we're far from what we used to be. But back with Cesc and co, we played without a doubt the best football in the Prem.

    Yeah. Just like you had a shot against Man City last season at the Etihad (second game towards the end of the season). Oh! You didn't have single shot that game did you? <laugh> Do yourself a favour, and just pipe down.

    As usual your facts are completely wrong, some might say "completely made up", but don't let that stop you from looking like a bellend.

    Its good that you accept we're far superior to you these days though, means my point about you being the ones who need to worry about an embarrassment is correct then doesn't it?

    My apologies. You had no shots on target against Man City. <rofl> At least with us, it was against Barcelona.

    Tbh I don't know why you keep bringing Arsenal up all the time. We will most probably lose our match against Bayern, as they're much better. You should accept the same against Real.

    I'm just putting deluded idiots like you who think you're going to give Real a run for their money in their place.

    You obviously didn't watch the match or look at a more credible match report like the bbc's or sky. Think we only had two shots on target but that's far better than none at all.

    As for Real, their defence has been pretty poor this year, as has ours, their attack is very strong as is ours, they'll be formidable at home but Spanish teams struggle on their travels and they have a huge derby match a few days before one of the legs. It'll come down to who scores more and we'll give them a game, unlike Arsenal who will get spanked.
