WoW. Go On Barca! beautifully taken goal by Eto. Messi is getting speed, hes been solid all half, hes a battler and a key difference, its what makes him better than Ronaldo, just slighly. I Can see barca getting another after the break but time for a infamous team talk by Fergie.
GO ON BARCELONA.
PS: Got nothing against man utd realy just barcelona are my second FAVOURITE team.
The 1st half has been really good. i want it to be settled in ET though, just so we can awtch this spectacle a little longer, the passing sometimes is EEEEEK 1337

Too many players have bad games for United at the moment;
Anderson, Rooney, Vidic ... is Giggs even on the pitch? You need everyone on their A game in a match like this, and at the moment it's not happening for the Mancs.

Love how the Liverpool fans are all for Barca
I'm not surprised, it's about the only bragging rights they have left this competition
Loved the T-Shirts that group of Utd fans were wearing though
Rafa and Gerrard as Del Boy and Rodney, "This time next year, we'll be champions"

just text my brother to see which end he was in
he replied "the quiet one"
Are the team you support there? Oh no sorry Rotty
Is it worth watching the second half or is a walk to the pub in order?
Well the 2nd half cant be any worst than the first, after the goal it was just pap
Oh dear Barca just playing with Man Utd...what happened to the much vaunted defense of Man Utd??.
Messi has just been running rampant over Man Utd...lucky that they arent 2 or 3 goals down already. Ronaldo being a ball hog as usual...doesnt seem to want to win it for the team..rather for himself...Messi is a much better all round player than him imho.
Far too much ball possession for Barca and Man utd need to close them down becasue they are running the Man Utd defense all over the playing field.
Still i think Man Utd will get a goal...they definitely need to as they need something up their backsides to get them going...they started off really well but from what i have seen they have really struggled in the last 20mins or so.
Still hoping that Barca get another goal...if they do then the game is over i think...although a 3-0 scoreline would suit me right down to the ground.
Come on BARCAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

United fans would do the same.
This one
I love how Ronaldo caused problems with the first free kick, then five minutes later we get another, which Giggs takes....
Started well but Barca are getting too much space in midfield. Tevez on for Park if it carries on.

Man Utd seem to be giving the ball away far too easily sometimes. Giggs has been next to useless (or as some people call him Park). Park, Giggs and Anderson need to get into the game more.
Barca are awesome with the ball, just walked through the defense for the goal.
Shouldn't Pique have been sent off as he was the last man?

coverage is poop from itv, and hilarious, UTD are being completely outplayed.
Anderson hasn't got remotely close to anything and should be off, Giggs's "free role" isn't working. They need a slower holder of the ball upfront, in berbatov, and their pace on the wings to get up to support him.
Putting your fastest players upfront just isolates them more, which is why Ronaldo is always on his own when he gets the ball no one can catch him up, awful decision to play Ronaldo upfront. Giggs off for berbs, Anderson for Scholes, Ronaldo and Rooney switch positions.
Carrick plays too deep when Anderson plays, isn't a great defensive midfielder and can't play his killer passes from so deep, while Anderson does nothing at all, ever. Scholes since he lost his pace tends to play the deeper role when its him and Carrick, so Carrick simply plays his best football with Scholes instead of Anderson.
At the moment, the better team is winning and Utd are rather lucky to be just 1-0 down. I think Henry's fitness might be playing a part, they don't look quite sharp enough when it comes to the final ball.
But even when Barca attack, they are often just sending 3 players forwards who are walking through Utd's midfield without a challenge, they aren't pushing 8 players up for an attack as they don't need to, which means they aren't really being left ripe for the counter attack.
