For those of you with long memories cast your mind back to 1973. The mighty Leeds against second division Sunderland. No contest and yet with great team spirit and a game plan Sunderland upset the odds to win the FA Cup. I know Barcelona can look absolutely fantastic but they are human and have weaknesses. Ferguson will exploit them. Believe and get behind your team for the entire match.
Tbh I don't mind the role of underdog. I'll be going into the match hoping for victory but knowing that it will be very difficult. That means I'll be more relaxed and enjoy the game more in some ways. Hopefully we can get the result but if we don't, well, we weren't expected to anyway and it's still been a great season.
Premier league teams playing at their full capacity will always give them a go, the mistake is to try and play them at their own game. Play like you did against Chelsea at OT in the 2nd leg and you'll give them a run for their money
This exactly In 2009, I expected us to win and was devastated when we were beaten comfortably. This time I'm looking forward to the game, but my expectations are much lower.
