Barcelona or Manchester United

[dellzeqq]

I'm hoping Manchester United win it. Something I wouldn't have thought possible until I totted up the help Barcelona had received from referees against Chelsea, Arsenal and Real. The dismissal of van Persie was just too darn convenient.

Manchester United in full flow are an ugly bunch - Ferdinand and Vidic yelling at officials from three inches are revolting, but with Barcelona you wonder if there's not something really iffy going on behind the scenes.

2:2 draw please thankyou.

Not bothered who wins as long as it's entertaining, am off to the pub to watch it unless I get a better offer.

Man U.

Despite all the hype about Barca being "The Peoples Club" they are riddled with debt, as underhand as anybody when it comes to poaching players, they have made diving an art form and for all their passing skills and possession dominance watching them is like watching paint dry.

Without any question...Barcelona. If MU were playing the Osama Bin Hitler XI, it would still be the atrocity merchants for victory I am afraid.

4-1 to Man. Utd.

No-one will go to a pub to watch. Bars a loner.

Barcelona don't need help, and we don't need dubious conspiracy theories - Arsene Wenger thinks that everyone's against him, whereas everyone else realises his team is just too lightweight (i.e. they don't have the toughness than Man U have).

I just hope it will be a good match. It should be. These are the two best clubs in Europe.

I'm not worried either way.

Politics and conspiration theories aside, they are the two outstanding club sides in European football, and I think it'll be a cracking game.

2-1 to Barcelona (or Man U)!

Manure for the simple fact that FIFA seem to give carte blance for Barcelona to get away with murder. The CL is over rated nonsense designed to just make money. The Football is secondary.
However I do hope that it's one of the most mind numbingly boring games (with plenty of injuries) that has ever graced the googglebox.

9-0 United, will do for me

But Ian... you don't...

Should be a good match I reckon.

I think Barcelona are vulnerable. Their defence is average.

If the referee keeps 11 Man U players on the pitch for once I think they'll win.

Being a Stockport fan who is surrounded by UTD and City fans at work it's been a very bad year
Can only hope for a Barca win to keep the reds quiet on Tuesday

3-1 Barca

Puyol out.

Mascherano as a centre back?

Got to be good for Man U - especially at set pieces.

Vidic et al vs Mascherano is not a match-up.
