I like the way you have said who UTd will buy....this is not championship manager, its the real world.

Hargreaves one of the best midfielders in England, - I almost spat my cornflakes out reading that.

So you would have him above (in no particular order) Fabregas, Gerraed, Alonso, Lampard, Essien, Ballack, the list is endless before you get to him....you are having a laugh mate.
yes, United WILL buy, everyone knows that.

I stand by my call about Hargreavs, so shiraz you.

aaaaaaaaaand this is a forum so it kinda is like championship manager, without the graphics.

adios fagitios.
And there goes every last shred of credibility.

Hargreaves pfffffffffffft you are joking mun!!

HOKAY! MANG 1._.1

When he Ran at Barcas defence was the only time Man Utd looked like they were going to be a threat on goals. You cant say from this game who is the better player, as neither stood out, besides Messi's header.

Messi is still best player in the worl IMO. I just cant stand all the Ronaldo haters trying to pick on every little thing there is whenever they get the chance too.
i agree, tbh i though ronaldo was the only ManU player to show some passion and commitment for most of the game.
There isn't a player in the world that can win a game by themselves at that level if the rest of the team isn't doing there bit.

not true

ronaldo has been doing it for a while now, just against scrubbers, he can't do it against decent sides on big occasions

Fckn hell Barca are an unreal side at keeping possession. Xavi and Iniesta..world class.
Totally outclassed Utd this morning, though in fairness I think they would have outclassed anyone they went up against.

tbh i'm not really sure what you are trying to say.
You say not true then go and agree with what i said in that he has been doing it against lower level sides.
Though i would argue that the rest of ManU plays at a higher level causing threats elsewhere on the park allowing ronaldo the time and space to do his stuff.
generally he relies on other ManU players to win the ball, pass it to him and then he does marvelous things with it.
Against Barca never let the rest of ManU have the ball to pass to him therefore they failed to allow him to be his usual attacking force.

Yeah he was fantastic, as was Pique. Utd would be spewin they let him go.

Can't really pick a weak link in the Barca side that played today..Everyone was fantastic. Xavi, Iniesta, Pique, Puyol, Toure, Sylvinho, Messi, Eto, Henry, Busquets, Valdes. They should all be proud of their performances this morning.

Well...... It's taken me all day to come to this forum. Well done to Barcelona.

Can't be f$%ked reading the previous four pages so I don't know if anyone has written this but the most disapointing thing for me was that we just didn't 'show' up. They scored - through cr@p defending from us - and we never really challenged after that. Very disapointed at this.

People will talk about Messi playing well in this game but for me, Iniesta and Xavi were a class above everyone.

Anyways, the better team definitely won today.

Now onto next year, I suppose (and all the crap surrounding Ronaldo in the off season.....again).
