Supreme Barca Vs Ultimate United
How can there be absolutely no discussion on the champions league finals….??? After Saturday night I’m beginning to doubt the quality of English teams…… even the best of the English premier league were beaten by the best of the Spanish league and humiliated at that……
Taking no credit away from Barca, They played their game. Briliiant finishing.
Could’ve been more.
ManU have the players who cud’ve gone onto finish Barca.
The whole game-plan was wrong. Again… L
After observing Madrid play Barca, Fergie shudve played 5 midfielders, and allowed Rooney to play alone. (Since defending was the priority)
Valencia dint know wat his role was. Pity!!!
1
cross from Giggs.
over-hit cross from Valencia.
Assist from Chicha
Goal from Rooney
Dissapointing 90mins… L
That’s true…..we didn’t play to our strengths……the first goal from Pedro was so frustrating to see, Evra was completely out of position…..
But yeah……hats off to Barca for the way they played……they were better and deserved to win…..
I have to say, once again SAF got it wrong…..even after half time when it was 1-1, he should have switched to 4-5-1 after watching that 4-4-1-1 was not working…….I am not saying that it would have changed the result of the game……but yeah, it would not have been like it was…….
This defeat once again have made us realize that we need a complete overhaul of our midfield…..Giggs is evergreen, no doubt, but he can’t run for whole 90 minutes against young and world class midfielders like Xavi(although 31 but younger than Giggsy) and Iniesta……Carrick can only pass, no legs…….
We lost the game in midfield and certainly we require to bring new faces there during summer.
Also, I have to accept that this Barca team is one of the very best team the club football has seen if not the best. You don’t often see three of the world’s five best players playing in one team and also others 2-3 are very good to say the least.
They play like a team and win like a team.
Giving the captain’s armband to Abidal to receive the trophy was a masterclass……..a true game spirit of the champions…..
Overall….Well done Barca……..
But yeah as they say…..UNITED NEVER DIE….
The problem was the ball possession. Park was supposed to break the link between xavi and iniesta. Instead, he was busy chasing dani alves and abidal. Cxavi and iniesta and busquets never moved out of their positions and passed among themselves until utd plyrs got frustrated. And then sensing panic among defence, launched their brilliant forward passes. Pedro and villa showed brilliant positioning sense. Also, devils surrender the ball too cheaply every time they got on their feet. Fast, counter-attacking football is futile against barca. Utd should have played the waiting game, kept the ball among themselves, and made precise passes. It was appalling to see Valdes just strolling in the park.
All in all, it was a poor strategy against a Spanish side L
We will be back next year. Waiting for 28-May-2012 CL final
GGMU……
