There's still hope for ya but I can't see you winning in Germany. A draw IMO so it all depends on CSKA-PSV
Funny to think that all the EPL teams barring City could be playing Europa. Chelsea just have to not lose, we have to better match or better a 3-2 win, and you have to better PSV's result. At least you didn't lose tonight. Had you lost it'd have been gg. Still though, all set up for a Lord Bendtner winner in Germany
The Chelsea thing is weird given how **** they have been, still, it just goes to show how much easier it is for poor teams to raise their game in cup competitions.
Utd don't have to better PSV's result, they need to match it. And winning in Germany takes them above Wolfsburg and winning the group.
You know what I meant. Winning in Germany is their best option but how feasible is it really. They have to go for it, but at the same time leave themselves at risk on the counter. Personally I see a 1-1 draw on the cards.
Don't know why so many fans of all teams, including our own, always think if we get dumped out of the UCL, that we have a good shot at the Europa League. If you look at your group stage, it's not exactly world beaters, more or less the same quality of teams in the Europa League, some would even argue some of the teams in the Europa League are better than some of the teams in your group stages, and the same with us minus Munich.
But van gaal has had barely a quarter of a billion to spend on the team, so you need to give him time to find his... 'Philosophy'!
If SAF had spent £250m on players he would have the best team playing the best football - so thank **** Yawnited have Butthead in charge #bringbackmoyes news flash - Yawnited have a new sleep water range - it looks just like their playing kit
On another related topic, has anyone watched United' Chevrolet advert, when Rooney says "they say it's us who have inspired them, but they have inspired us", can there be any worst piece of conveying emotion, and making it so painfully obvious that he's just reading a script? I mean we know you gotta read the script and all, but try to make it less obvious and that you mean it? It's cringe worthy.
You mean like "...it's smils minly?" lol. I love the fact that he's got "just enough education to perform" tattooed on himself - shows how optimistic he is!
You are joking!! I hope all the teams that drop into the Europa from the CL are knocked out in the Round of 32. If you are not good enough for the CL what entitles you to think you are good enough to win the Europa?
Humour is rife in Manchester. Maybe it is needed the way you are allegedly playing right now in terms of style and quality. Still at the end of the day it is a results driven business and if Chelsea can do it, just maybe, but would it be good for football in general to see a dullard team win anything? That is why everyone bar Real Madrid fans, enjoys watching Barcelona right now and wants them to win and destroy the opposition. If I was a football coach of young lads in the UK, that is the way I would want my team to play.
LVG is a football genius....In the space of 5 days gets United knocked out of the Champions League and into the Europa League, and now get thoroughly outclassed and beaten by newly promoted Bournemouth.
