*Official* Champions League Final Match Thread - Teams & Win or Lose, We're still Champions

Shame to end such a great season like this - rather we hadn't made the final.

How long till Owen comes on?

No shame in this really.

No £#%&!er can stop them. Madrid got ridiculously lucky in the cup final, we've come unstuck at Wembley again.

£#%&!ing typical that a true phenomenon of a team comes along just as we are in a position to dominate Europe

they are just slightly better than Bruges and Borrusia Monchengladbach.

For Hernandez maybe, not for £#%&!ing Carrick you bumsniffer.

such is life mate.

they're a great team. We're a very good team.

they're better than everyone and madrid have spend 100s of millions trying to get near them.

This has been more one-sided than Rome because the gap between the two teams has increased.

There's £#%&! all point getting exasperated, no team in the game will challenge them until they get old or complacent or break up.

Oh, and Valdes has got £#%&!ing lucky twice now.

3-1 has flattered us tbh.

Don't worry Messi is already 23 he'll be well past his best in 7 years time.

Let's see how Citeh get on against them in next year's final

Evra really needs a good break this summer. I think it's about time Fergie considered his automatic selection.

If Rafael can keep himself fit the twins should both start.

nonsense. we have made them look far better than they are. in possession, they are fantastic. but we have gifted them possession for the entire game. no magical jedi powers from barca. just awful football from us.

come on mate - we've struggled against some of the most mediocre the premier league has to offer away from home in midfield.

we were hardly going to turn up and compete with this lot.

I think we can stop the silly "utds best can beat barca's best" delusion now. Theyre the best side ive seen. Its like Nadal at the French Open. We just have to hope another player shocks them on the way to the final. We cant beat them.

We've been diabolical but even at the top of our game we'd have needed them to be on an off-night.

No shame in it, they've just got much better players who work like a fan would given a game.

It's not. What are we supposed to do that no other team they ever face does?

In that cup final they lost, it was exactly the same as this, but they couldn't get the ball in the net. When they lost at Arsenal it was miles £#%&!ing worse than this, they just eased right off.

This is the biggest game, they were never going to lapse or ease up.

We've given them this game ffs.

Made them absolutely shit themselves for ten minutes, then stopped what we were doing and retreated into our shell as soon as they got their first spell of posession. If our midfielders had actually done their jobs it would have been a very different story.
