So much for adding the Europa League to the trophy cabinet...
Such a shame for plucky Manchester United, but they gave it a great shot. Amazing to take that squad, assembled on a shoe string, playing for meagre wages that far in the Europa. It's a huge credit to the manager, just a shame they drew moneybags Bilbao.
You have turned into such a bitter in the 6 months I was away. Every other post is a dig at the top sides and how much they have to spend, we all know Villa are in a rut at the moment but don't become an arsehole out of frustration, rise above it.
Oh really?Well the euro micky mouse cup may well be important to Lollerpool, I don't think either side of Manchester give a shit about it.
So Man Utd and Man City can both only win the Prem now..? going to be really interesting
So glad i was working and couldnt watch the match. Good luck to bilbao, sounds like they are a fantastic attacking team.
Bielsa is a genius. Bilbao were absolutely fantastic.
If I was a more paranoid individual (which I'm not, no siree, *twitch*), I'd think United's terrible showing in Europe this season couldn't be a better way of getting the Glazers to open up the purse strings in the summer. Clearly, repeatedly getting to CL finals wasn't doing the job...
Oh come on Gaff, the Glazers for all the shit they get, have always given Fergie cash.
I'm sick of hearing fans going on about Sneijder, yes he's good, but he also hasn't started more than 25 games in the league for his club since 2008 due to injuries, that's just not good enough. I'm hopeful that they will invest in someone in the summer who is a bit more experienced to help out Clev/Pogba/Anderson, but i'd rather it was spent on someone who was going to play a real part!
CL Quarters
Apoel vs Real Madrid
Marseille vs Bayern
Chelsea vs Benfica
AC Milan vs Barcelona
Good draw for the quarters but tough semi game regardless of who goes through.
