Fenerbahce away

Jose as manager.

Fred & Amrabat in midfield.

A squad littered with PL flops and/or has beens.

Fully expect us to crumble.

Also we didn't play that many European games before then, under the old qualification rules and competition formats.

No they didnt. No group games and you only played Champs in them days. Busby's teams did well in the European Cup when they qualified. Of course Law had a perfectly good goal disallowed in the 1969 semi leg at OT that would have taken us to a consequtive final, vs Alax in Madrid. Same for the UEFA and ECWC Cup campaigns im the 70s and 80s. It was was it was. But we were undefeated at home during all that time which was amazing. Ajax, Barca, Porto, Juve, Madrid, Milans et al. You cant take that away from United. Unless you want to.

It’s Happened before… and a bit closer home.
Aston Villa - Big Ron Atkinson - Paul McGrath -
and future players
Bosnich - Les Sealy - Dwight Yorke. Man they ran us close. Bloody good team.
And all amongst that was bitter Gordon Strachan balling for Leeds UTD, which was instigated by bloody Big Ron himself.

But yeh, Jose…. Oh the media gonna go ballistic waiting to see him dropping bombs on us… BRING IT ON!!
