Sorry - "our" PL Champs?
Know what you mean, but I'm soooo glad that Barca have wiped the arrogance off Manure's faces.
Most one sided final in history
Aren't Fergie & Shrek's faces a picture?????
Point taken Pompey. I don't like them anymore than you, but I meant English Champs. Soz to anyone mislead by my use of our! They're certainly not ours, for we are DRFC and RTWD!
Pathetic abus.Portsmouth?ha ha.Wont even bother to look up who the rest of you mugs support.
Anyone who wonders why everyone dislikes ManUre so much should look to what Barcelona did at the end of the match by forming a guard of honour. As for the Manko's they pushed off as soon as they could and didn't applaud Barca. What does this tell us? Barcelona - pure class. Mankos - don't even go there..........
Poor loser there eh flame? At least your players took it with a bit more grace than you. We're proud of who we support, we love our club and will never be glory hunters like half of your lot! Now off you go, head in hands and get ready to bully wigan et al next term! RTWD

Plus the fact of idiot fans like the singing flame
Good point SoG. Thanks for the 1 star by the way flame. Wasn't gonna mention it til you stuck your head above the parapet, but you were soooo outclassed and Valencia didn't know what day it was!
At least the majority of Man U fans didn't have far to go home, probably just a couple of stops away on the tube.
Apart from Rooney and Vidic United were poor. It is always difficult to evaluate a losing side's performance when they have been completely outplayed - everyone sees the brilliant Barcelona passing but look at how little time any Utd player had when passed the ball - but here goes.
The midfield players just aren't good enough. Park and Valencia underperformed woefully but Giggs is well past his best and Carrick has never been fit to fill the boots of Keane/Robson/Ince. But even if Utd had the luxury of four players like the Barca midfield they would still have lost. Before the game there was talk of Utd going to 3-4-3 if they went behind. They did go behind but I certainly didn't notice Ferdinand or Vidic stepping up to help out. Barca don't play anyone for two centre halves to mark so playing a flat back four, even playing just one at the front, still leaves you well outnumbered in the middle. Surprisingly tactically very naive.
Ferguson has to replace Giggs, Scholes and Carrick now. Obertan, Bebe, Anderson and Gibson have all had their chance to shine and haven't done so. It's that or the Mourinho way!
So why are MU the current champions with the poorest squad I can remember them having? Home wins 95%, away wins, 26%.
Half the teams that visit Old Trafford don't think they can win. How do MU do that?
It's always a tough one comparing teams from different eras, but the only team I have seen that would have given Barca a run for their money tonight was AC milan of the late 80's.Gullit,van Basten,Rijkaard,Baresi and Maldini.It would have been some contest.
I think the Real madrid side of the sixties with Di Stefano, Gento and Puskas etc would have been a match for this Barcelona side, but as you say it's difficult because of present day fitness etc.
Once again for bally, read newyankee.
Both those sides, Milan and Real are up there, although I never saw that Madrid team as they were before my time. I'm sure there'd be some Liverpool fans putting in a claim for their side of the late 70's too.
I'm not sure that Man Utd's defeat, or more the manner of it, proves this years PL was weak, but it would have been interesting to see how our top four in the prem would've faired in this seasons La Liga.
my missus asked me why the rovers dont play like barca,so i said they do darlin but in slow motion
