What a fluke! Shame that's going to paper over the crack of tonight's performance though

Feef · 3 Nov 2009 at 21:34

as ever, Valencia looked so chuffed

Why didn't Neville shoot?

Tummy · 3 Nov 2009 at 21:35

Obi wan kicked him :eek:

syke · 3 Nov 2009 at 21:36

Sending off, lol.

Shamikebab · 3 Nov 2009 at 21:36

What the hell just happened? Why was Obertan yellow carded and what was the red for?

Tute · 3 Nov 2009 at 21:37

That's about fair.

Off the ball elbowing. Both got a yellow, so second yellow and off.

Obi Wan kicked him in the attack, then next they came together because the CSKA player wouldn't let it drop.

Ref booked them both, rightly so and because the CSKA was on a yellow he was sent off.

Was all a bit silly.

It was a Carling cup team.

We needed a point.

Was it though? It was hardly a weak side full of youngsters, it was a side that looked poor at the back, in the middle and up front

I like Valencia but he really needs to put himself about more, we need some threat from central midfield and Owen was pretty poor tonight.

Don't think United were that bad.

As G|mp said, United only needed a point to go through, left it late though

Wasn't a full strength side.

Was complacency too. Wouldn't worry, you'll be fine

and it was pretty much a cup team.

What an exciting last half hour, anyone else notice we had 6 efforts in the first 60 mins then 12 in the next 25

I'm with G|mp too, that was a weak side and we peppered their goal and pressed them really hard, if the ref had his eyes open, we'd have had that penalty too..

Bayern on the brink of going out. Bayern v Liverpool Europa League Final?

Of course it was, out of the team that started the game there was only Valencia, Fletcher and Scholes who you would say are close to the first team.

No Rooney, Berbatov, Giggs, Ferdinand, Vidic, Evra, O'****.

It was a team of back up's.

Liking Obertan tbh, hes gonna be a good player that lad.
