SAF not happy with the ref and linesman

seemed to suggest giggs, berbs and vidic would be alright for sunday as well.

It was me that had the 19/1 and I confidently expect to be £#%&!ed as an OG but at the moment uefa.com have it down as Valencia +2.

£#%&! me that result felt like a win we played utter shite until Nani went of

Strange game.

Piss poor defending.

But, if we had scored 7 or 8 it wouldn't have flattered us.

We would have hammered a shit side but been hammered by a good team on tonights display. Thank £#%&! we've got the extra day to prepare for Chelsea. Our defence has looked suspect for a while.

Obertan is going to be a very good player for us imo. He beats men so easily and has great awareness.

job done but we need to improve alot before Sunday.

match proved that any over confidence in the CL will be punished, not such thing as an easy game etc.

Macheda looked alot more comfortable this time round, some good touches.

Owen was very sharp throughout, got himself in some good positions and took his goal really well.

Valencia still looks limited going forward but i love that he never gives up. Nani look ok in patches but gave the ball away far too much in that 1st half.

Brown looked off the pace, made Evans look very shakey. they both improved alot second half mind. hope they dont play on Sunday though, or we'll get murdered.

Rooney looked like a man on a mission when he came on, nice to see. thought he was gonna smash that chance @ the back post instead of side footing it.

all in all poor 1st half, ok 2nd

Whole different game if playing a good team though. And a great deal of difference in who would be playing.

It was quite an enjoyable game, one with no great pressure on. I wouldn't read a great deal into it.

Nani should be put in front of a firing squad, he is £#%&!ing gash.

Obers changed the game imo.

Owen looked sharp mentally, but slow physically. The runs he makes are fantastic, but more often than not he gets nowhere near the £#%&!ing ball. Touch was poor a few times too. Good option to bring on, but don't think he'll be starting many important games for us.

except for zurich at home (6-1 marseille)

Can't believe they have got Salgado on again

I enjoyed that, a silly match with a lionish come back. Well done Manchester United.

Akinfeev will be our #1 for the next 10 years.

I actually feel a little sorry for CSKA They played well and deserved to win. Looked a completely different side to the one we played in Moscow. Like most Eastern European sides, they all have excellent technique. At times they kept the ball very well - lovely passing.

Not sure about that, we hit the post and had a blatent penners.

I think a draw was about right in the end.
