I thought they were in with a chance when Bendtner scored first!

Four goals in a European Quarter final is some achievement,

Just a joy to watch and will be interesting to see how the 'special one' copes tactically in the next round. Still think that Sir Alex's descriptiion of Barcelona's foootball movement sums them up perfectly - "It's like a carousel moving around you on the pitch"

Liz. Georgie Best - what a great talent and what a stupid waste of his life.

George Best - I'm not a great lover of football, but, even now, watching old footage of him playing gives a great amount of pleasure. I agree with you Bill, what a dreadful waste of a God-given talent.

fantastic show by probably one of the greatest players to grace a football pitch...



Turning to the likes of Besty, and Gaza, guess we're to blame as a nation more then anything else.

For us its all about booze, out all night...etc



When Berg and Henry came to Arsenal i remb Tony adams in a press interview saying how theyd celebrate a win with a glass of wine and be in bed by 10 where as the english lads would be out on the lash

Lilli. your spot on saw him play many times what a player, booze got the better of him, but the press build you up ready to kick you when your down. Take care Lovely Lady.

OK - new thread required?



Who wants to start the "Was there ever a better player than John Charles" list?



Be prepared for a very long list, methinks.



Incidentally, MU have just scored in the second minute.



I'm bowing out now - this is the extent of my knowledge of football.



Enjoy, all those watching the MU game.
