We cannot get too obsessed with scoring early. They'll be well organised and failure to do so could tip the psychological advantage in their favour. A 1-0 win would be a great result, so we need to be positive without getting carried away. Like I say, their tame goal threat is a bonus in this respect. |

I think they just lost their concentration for a few vital minutes and Milan punished them, but Bayern's overall display was pretty toothless. They didn't have the attacking players to hurt Milan and - van Bommel aside - nobody looked like really making a difference tonight. Like I said before, I think Bayern gave Milan a very easy ride. |

So if I understand your argument,

What would you recommend if their goal threat was, um, not "tame"? |

OK,

But that Quote:
Which is, if you rated their forward line - regardless of their attacking intent or lack of it - how would your recommended approach differ from the one above? |

Well, I did say it was a bonus. I don't think it would change the approach too much, but I think the weak nature of their frontline should give us more confidence that the goal(s) we score will be the only ones on the evening. I think United are well capable of playing a calm, purposeful game and have the good balance between quality attackers and solid defenders to get a win and keep a clean sheet. If Milan get to a position – in either leg – where they are chasing the tie, that will be the time to punish their old men with our pace on the break. |

Yes, they took the piss last time by not having a keeper in both legs. At least I don't think they did. If they did, he never touched the £#%&!ing ball |
