The back 4 and the keeper had an average age of 21. We should be lucky at such a young age we've identified 5 quality players that are at the moment, the future of Manchester United. How long for, nobody knows. Just have to enjoy it while it lasts!

The problem was lack of effort, not lack of experience. I have to wonder if I was watching the same game as some posters. Sir Alex highlighted a lack of experience but he is hardly going to come out and say the players didn't look bothered.

As soon as we went in front, the players just sat back and didn't make any effort to compete. The whole approach was complacent, from everyone, including the boss. Changing your mind on captain 5 minutes before kick off? Really?! That indicated a clear lack of real thought or concern in the build up to the game and set the tone for what followed.

I agree with OP and mss

They scored more in the second leg in which we put up a weakened side...but United won the series...What's the beef?????

I thought we deliberately played like that to conserve energy. Perfect example citys performance against porto, they had 26% possession in second half and basically the whole 2nd half let porto do whatever they wanted before the bus or wall stood firm 20yds out.
