Other CL quarter finals 7/8 April 2009

Man Utd could easily do them away from home. IF they're back in form, and let's face it, we have absolutely no ****ing way of knowing when or how that will happen.

True, they've only got a week though to sort themselves out.

I may have been half asleep but I could have sworn I heard on the radio this morning Fergie saying theres no way they would have conceded twice if O'Shea hadn't been playing

It's quite possible. Just like their defence Fergie is cracking up!

It's extra funny that Neville is playing like lame donkey since he's come back. Piss poor.

Neville is finished. The Mancs are turning on their hero!

He should be off to the Scrap Yard AKA Everton in the summer.

Amazing. I got both results totally wrong today - having seen Porto against Atletico, I thought no way would they play the same way but credit to them, they were fantastic today however one criticism you could make was that they couldn't make more of the possession in the attacking third until the second goal.

United looked absolutely shattered having played two games in two days - they might benefit from the extra day off facing Sunderland but that was a template for the Mackems onto how to beat United. I know this sounds stupid but they are far more easy to penetrate than Liverpool. One slide ball between the midfield and defence and teams can capitalise - United gift far too much space against their opposition, more often than not, the opposition are scared to exploit it. I'm glad Liverpool don't play in such an expansive manner; had United played Barcelona tonight, they would have been absolutely slaughtered, they were extremely lucky it was Porto.

Never mind Barcelona, if they'd played Liverpool last night they'd have been absolutely slaughtered - even more so than they were in the league by us.

From the discussion from McNulty's blog on the beeb:

'Having started In the Porto game on Tuesday, Manchester Utd Midfielder Cristiano Ronaldo expressed frustration with his level of play, saying that his ability to draw fouls by flopping to the floor with little or no provocation was still only at "about 85 percent."
"physically I feel healthy, but my flailing and splaying still aren't where they need to be," said Ronaldo, who has begun to practice windmilling his arms and falling backward during training. "I'm used to throwing myself 10, sometimes 12 feet down the pitch. At this point, I'm lucky if I'm getting 8 on a good flop. My wailing is good, but I need to be hitting the floor a lot harder than the guy hit me, if I was hit. I can't catch myself with my hands like I did in the second half. That was pub football."
Ronaldo then flung himself out of the changing room, slid backward onto a bus, and tumbled wildly into his Manchester home.'
