own goal wasn't it? hard luck! the draw should be farely straight forward and i reckon it shouldn't be too hard for us. we definitely have to beat the crap out of benfica!

 

[MikeyM]

Drew Celtic again, that's gonna be a helluva night at Old Trafford! I'm glad we got Benfica again, because now there's a chance to rectify that awful performance there last season - also Ronaldo has an opportunity to put that night behind him too.

Good draw indeed let's hope to crush Kopenhagen to a pulp that would really make my day after the loss last night. If my first team can't do it then my 2nd fav team must do it and I'm sure ManUtd will win in the end. Kopenhagen is not very impressive and they are through because of a mistake from our defender last night

Your tears are spilling over in other threads as well.

We are getting better now, I really want to see United shine again in Europe.

Benfica, We will beat you!

We love United, We do!

 

[Silencer]

Just like you butting in again get a life
Yeah it was an own goal so they had all the luck of the world last night.
Post (Babel, Crossbar (Huntelaar), linesave (Stam).
If United plays their own game FCK really won't be a big obstacle IMO.

GELUL = YOU

 

[Silencer]

hahaha he knows a word Dutch

Sut mine rådne løg

Anyway keep laughing pal, let's see if you will still be laughing when the Unitedtrain runs through Kopenhagen.

 

[Ubik Valis]

Laughing at you. Yes.

Laughing at Ajax. No.

 

[Silencer]

Whatever makes you happy

Does anyone else feel annoyed that the FA is now considering changing the "unbreakable rule" that once the referee takes action against a player they can't intervene. When Michael Brown tried to break Ryan Giggs' leg we were told the FA couldn't act because Brown had recieved a yellow card. However Ben Thatcher assaults Pedro Mendes (admittedly it was far nastier, but the intent was the same in both cases - setting out to deliberately hurt an opponent) and now the press and the FA can't wait to (deservedly) punish Thatcher not to mention the Police as well. Yet Brown's assault on Giggs barely got a mention!

Luckily Giggs was OK, and so hopefully will Pedro Mendes be as well, but the game could do without vicious assaults like these (and yes I condemn Keano's lunge at Alfie Haaland when I say this)

We are gonna own you again, dream on with the first place, cause you can only get the second...






j/k guys, hoping to see two good games, and hoping myself to go to Da Luz to see the game.

 

[Help?]

Am i the only one that thinks our group is very tricky?

 

[Andrejs]

I don't think United and Benfica will have any problems going through. Celtic really isn't a club to be affraid of, in my opinion. The hardest match will be Benfica away.

 

[ManU2000]

Am i the only one that thinks our group is very tricky?

I would say so. Celtic haven't looked good so far this season and Kopenhagen shouldn't be a difficult team. Benfica seems to be the only team that could cause us some serious problems. That's not to say that we'll breeze right through the group considering our recent history in the CL but I feel we'll be alright. First place looks good but I wouldn't be surprised if we finished second.

 

[Fernandez]

Order of the matches, can't be arsed to type the dates.

v Celtic (h)

[mnj2x]

i was hoping we would get sporting instead of benfica...

 

[d3adly]

good draw for us. apparantely keano will call in a favour from fergie to loan miller and a striker from us.

 

[ladylover]

There are reports saying that Chelsea will go for Tevez and that they would loan him out for a season to Stade Rennes

EDIT: Other news, we are ready to leave Hargreaves and go for the Norwegian player Heastad

 

[d3adly]

fergie has a press-conference tonight, he might reveals something about transfers.

 

[goal_machine84]

lets hope so

Nice CL draw for us imo...first one is away to Benfica, tricky but i just want them thrashed tbh

Also wats the latest on hargreaves...heard it might be called off n we will go for some other guy, cant remember his name atm.
