@ people acting like this would be a massive upset Tyson/Douglass level.

United is ready to go.. this team is solid and unified a far more daunting prospect then the team led by Mr Selfish himself Ronaldo and Mr No Loyalty Tevez. Ronaldo was to focused on his unwinnable (Messi is a level higher) fued with Messi going into the last final it didn't help us.

5/1 Falco and Hulk to score vs Braga tonight is not bad.. they are a beast team led by a very good upcoming manager

Joe, what do you think of United's chances agianst Barca ?

I think we are pretty screwed tbh

It depends on what formation we go for. If we carry on with the 4-4-1-1 then we might have a shot as Hernandez can push their defence back. Also we gotta leave Nani on the bench so we can play Park and Valencia who will be willing to run all night and do the job at both ends of the pitch, Nani is not that great defensively.

We have to be on top form and try to play our own game. Barca are absolute beasts though and Messi can definatley get the better of our defence. They will outpass us for the whole game and are bound to score during the 90 mins.

I didn't say 'massive' but it will be an upset if they win. The only reason why I think Utd can win is because I don't rate this Barca team as good as the one in 09.

Not at all.. the only thing which could happen is a Vidic red card which would mess us up badly. Messi is a very hard player to shut down unlike Ronaldo but it is possible.. United need to press intelligently vs Buzquetz, Iniesta, Xavi and cut his supply.. I am thinking the kind of tempo Madrid started of for the first 20 mins in the Nou Camp

I just meant in general not you in particular..

The odds for Man Utd in this match are crazy and i agree with you..

Eto>> Villa/Pedro who i think fit in well to the system but are not on his level (Villa is at his best) but he is clearly out of form. It's very hard to do.. but you need to get at that weak Barca back line who are protected extremely well from the front starting with Messi.

I also believe this Man United team is in a better place right now then the 09 team.. the loss and people saying they aren't good will inspire them

The only weaknesses i see is that their defense is protected, not only that but it's fairly small apart from Pique so a lot of balls in the box could cause them problems. This is why getting our wingers involved is so crucial.

The only other one is that they don't have someone like Eto'o anymore, Villa is awesome but he's a bit off form and he's not as deadly for Barca as Eto'o was. Pedro can be a sneaky little bugger, he's got the advantage that Park Ji Sung has where he's far from the biggest name on the team sheet, but if you don't pick him up he can sting you just as bad as anyone else on the team i would definitely not underate Pedro in this match.

I have a feeling Braga will keep it tight.

1-0 either side.

If i was pushed I would say 1-0 Porto Hulk
