The Champions' League

Just want to know what my fellow Man United supporters feel about our chances in the CL this season.
Of course we've had some great success in the past 4 seasons in this competition with 3 final appearances , a semifinal run and oh yes that memorable title in '08 inspired by a great Man United legend , John Terry.

So go on then lads , how do you think United will do in the champions' league this season?

"No point putting Arsenal for two reasons.

1) They won't make the group stages.
2) We would beat them easily"

We've qualified for the Champions League group stages for the last 14 seasons. What makes this year different?

And since when have Man Utd beaten us 'easily'?

If the title of this thread is Champions League then the answer is the last time we played you

Haha, very funny.

You may have beaten us without too much trouble a few times over the years, but a game between Arsenal and Man Utd is usually very close and competitive.

I can say the same thing, we've beaten Ma Utd with ease a few times over the years.

The group stage hardly matters, without even seeing the draw its pretty easy to predict most teams who will be in the last 16.

Personally the only team for us to avoid is Barca, but as we have seen it is possible to knock them out like Inter did, so I'd hope that someone else does the job on this season.

People need to get over this idea that Real are the second best team on the planet. If we had met them in last seasons final, I'm 90% sure we would have won it.

United are better than Real.

Im sorry really?

Even as a Chelsea fan I feel that If our teams played tomorrow United would win but do you seriously think if you had met Madrid in the Final you would of won.

Madrid boast some of the greatest players in world football currently (granted so does united) with arguably the best squad (not starting XI) with the second best player in the world spearheading the attack not to mention Mourinho at the helm. Admittedly Madrid have suffered worse defeats than UTD in recent years at the hands of Barca but still don't see how Madrid have an inferior team to United or would of lost to them in the final

I'd give us about 20-25% chance. Even though i think Barca would beat us (and everyone else) 4/5 times, anything can happen in football and if Barca get knocked out i'd think we would be (just) favourites.

f@ggot united fans.

WE CAN BEAT ANYONE !!!

get your d!cks out of barca, this is football and team are there to be beaten.

My advice, accept defeat , grow a spine, and support your team.

Doubt Barca will win it this season, don't think any team will retain it for a long time. We're in with a chance but can see Madrid focussing on it this season and they'll be hard to stop now they've been a team a bit longer
