i was going on about this last week.

we presented them with a empty midfield and 10 men and they still didnt look like thrasing us.

if we turn up and play a decent game we should win..

then again its a cup competition and one goal from them could change everything.

fingers crossed.

Everythings gonna be crossed tonight vio

UNITED!
UNITED!
UNITED!

we did if not for a stupid linesman against porto.

how ironic that scholes isnt playing today aswell.

carrick cant play his safe game today.
i just hope he doesnt.

I still think we can win it, but by a score that will nevertheless see us go out.

Last time we played in Lyon we drew 2-2.

Roma beat Lyon in France.

Lyon drew in Rome.

And we lost in Rome.

Keeping up? I hope so, because

Last time Lyon played in Manchester we beat them 2-1.

All in all, it's a tough one to call.

If we win by a score that will still put us out then there'll be at least 5 goals.

And that would be more than in any of those other 5 matches.

Hmm. What's the chances of that happening, then?

Roma are a good side but after failing to score a third goal in the first leg, i think they may be wounded psychologically somewhat.

If we start with a high tempo we have a big chance.

If football was that predictable, I probably wouldn't watch it.

Having said that I say 3-2 to United tonight. Losing Vidic was a massive blow which we're still reeling from.
