Liverpool aint gonna reach the final mate. IF (I said IF), you beat Barca, it will be us you have to face.

Do I remember that Liverpool actually got further than Man U this season in the FA Cup? Hmmmm

 

[Help?]

Well, Barcelona are supposedly the underdogs and Liverpool are supposedly the underdogs, but from this year's FA Cup we all know what could happen being an underdog. So, in my opinion the chance of Man United vs. Chelsea final is just as high as Liverpool vs. Barcelona or other way around.


What's with the FA Cup though pede? Doesn't really matter that United got 1 round further than Liverpool at the end of the day all 3 of us lost to teams they should have beaten, although Chelsea and Liverpool losses were a bit more embarassing.

I was just picking up on that little joke that e.p-IL posted man. Nothing sinister, and you are right when you say that we all should have done a lot better in that competition. It's pretty cool to see some other teams in the final though apart from the "big boys".

I'd just ignore it since that picture isn't particularly funny.
What do you guys all reckon about the Arsenal game then?
This is their last chance to get anywhere near the championship so they'll be going for it.

Good game against Roma...job well done and into the semis !!

Barca wont be easy thats for sure but it will be one hell of a semifinal ...but first the Arsenuts are comin to OT.

I think they will go for it but we can edge them...I am worried about someone getting injured in that game

 

[Hans]

I don't know man, the Arsenal were robbed in that ECL quarter final, and it seems like they gonna **** like a wounded animal. Cesc, Toure and Ade are some pissed off sons of bitches and Roma's pussy-ness against us didn't really build the heat for our players.

And as for Barca, they scored probably the ugliest looking goal in ECL history, but they scored and that's the point. But when we faced Roma, we made the most beautiful plays one man could ever seen but we only managed to score a goal. Dammit, somebody other than Ronaldo needs to step up ! It's not the shoots that count but the goals...

For sentimental reason, if, we go to the final, I'd rather face Liverpool. Manchester United VS Liverpool in European greatest night ? That would be any football fans wet dream...

But on the other hand, they didn't deserve to be there in the first place because of that "ghost penalty", so in fairness Chelsea is a better option...

But the best options is that both Chelsea and Liverpool fought their ass of in the semis that every single one of their starting players got injured... now whoever progress, I don't really ******* care anymore after that...

Dam Barnsley!

 

[Fernandez]

PFA list. No Ferdinand. Steven GERRRRAAAAARRRDDDDDDDDD has done f*** all this season and he is being looked ahead of Rio. Torres, fair enough but Rio has been of different class this season.

 

[Help?]

I don't think they really put too much thought and care into chosing the 5 other candidates, i mean David James is on there. Its a one-horse race and i think everybody is expecting that, hence the players.

Either way, Vidic and Nani look set to be back as early as Blackburn!!!! This is a real boost, we could use those two, especially Vidic. Although Pique has really impressed in his last two games.

Arsenal are torn right now and its a perfect time to strike a killer blow right into them.

If I remember correctly, only one player from each team is allowed (that's why Ginola won player of the year when United did the Treble) Some silly sod in the Daily Star reckons Torres should get it over Ronaldo - He's been good, but Ronny's on a different planet.

"I'd love it if we delivered the killer blow to Arsenal, just love it!"

I would truly love to see Martin Tyler and Andy Gray witness their precious Arsenal humbled.

Martin Tyler a gooner? Andy Gray has been kissing too much Utd arse during commentary to be a gooner, IMO.....

 

[Help?]

Allowed to get nominated? Liverpool and Arsenal have 2 nominations.



Zakov: I always thought that Andy Gray is a Liverpool fan, but he is definietly not a United supporter. You probably heard him when Chelsea was playing and if he is an Arsenal supporter, then he wouldn't be talking too well of Chelsea.

 

[Stotty]

Haha, with Torres and Gerrard up for nomination?

Are you for real? I never heard a RRRRRRRRROOOOONNNAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLDDDOOOOOOOOO from them. Only a GGGGERRRRRAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDD and LLLLAAAAAAMPAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRDDDDDDDDDDDDDD. Go watch their games again, maybe now you will notice it.

haha good point but both are rooney supporters

The thing is they're not together most of time like in the past, its now either Ian Darke with Gray and Tyler with Marwood.
I think I sense a pattern here, they're England player supporters, but I have heard Gray and Tyler lick the arse of Ronaldo everytime he's about to launch his spectacular "ball going up and down" free-kick.

 

[Fernandez]

That's just Ronaldo. But, meh, what's the point of arguing who them two supports.

hmm, i don't know, maybe it'd be nice now and again to prove you Mancs wrong, but enough said, to me, they're the best commentary combo in sky.....

 

[1966+2006]

Can't wait for the start of the game.

EDIT: YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
I love beating Arsenal but this was so important. Brilliant goal by Hargreaves and great composure by Ronaldo!!!
