This. Siders will tell you different still

But- he'll always be in United's history for that pen. Fair play to him, 18 years old Cracking words in that interview aswell, can imagine his face when Fergie is telling him to go on to take a pen

There's no way dunk wasn't moaning about something.

Sparky was.. think I was bitching that Saha couldn't get and stay fit tbh. Oh, and that we needed a midfielder...

At the time, we really didn't....

However, we all know what happened certain players

His words pal, not mine...

'“I came on to take the penalty,” he said. “I hadn’t touched the ball. I was sitting on the bench, Giggs looked and said like this: ‘Get Anderson to take one’. I said ‘Oh my’. I was 18 at the time.”

Tbh I'd still back you over the man himself

"I said, oh my"

Bangin penalty. As in, it went in.

Was more worried about Nani's

I thought Cech had saved it and we were done.

I think there were two 'must score' pens in there. We never looked like we could win it until Terry missed.

Once Ando smashed his in, I thought 'Chelsea have £#%&!ed this'

Think Ando hit his down the middle?

Hate them. Always think they've missed/hit the keeper.

Yep. It was a shit pen tbf

In fact, there were plenty of weak ones all-round. Ashley Cole's was shit. Barely to one side, waist height off the ground. VDS goes the wrong way though so it's a 'great penalty'.

Best one was Hargreaves. Absolutely German-ed it in.

he was absolutely shitting himself, you can tell as he walks up

strange to think that ronnie was the only one of ours that missed, considering how infallible he generally seems now.

I don't accept penalty 'victories' in finals.

It'll always be 1-1 to me.

Belter. Hammered in top corner, from memory. Didn't even know he could do pens. Maybe he didn't either?

Yep one of those 'thank yooou' ruthlessly despatched bastards.

Missed one in the first leg of the semi at Camp Nou, hit the post / clipped it wide? Definitely got a bit giddy when he had too much time to think about it back then.

Seems to have it under control these days I suspect...
