Get innnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

I never doubt us in these games, and I always knew we were going to win.

It's funny actually, how we completely annihilate the best sides in the world, and struggle against cannon fodder at home.

[Joe King]

Good win.

I kind of agree with both Gray and Lawro when saying Real were poor today. Either they didn't perform or Benitez just blocked off their main threats (Robben and Higuain) I like to think it was a bit of both, Real in recent seasons don't go past the knockout stages and when push comes to shove against some of the better tactical sides i.e. Roma, Juve; they don't perform to the same standard as they have done in the league in recent weeks.

Well taken goal from Benayoun, didn't do a lot in the game as much of it was more containment rather than explosive attack but got us the vital away goal. Doesn't change much realistically but gives us a huge boost for the coming weeks.

We were awsome. Let no one underestimate the significance of that victory. Once again we established our credentials on the highest stage. Where are the Rafa doubters now?

[lickedlollipop]

Torres is injured? noone mentioned that.

[Nicey]

We'll be coming We'll be coming We'll be coming Down the Road !!!

GET IN!

“It will be a great game against Liverpool and I think we will beat them 3-0 at the Santiago Bernabeu,” he boomed during an interview with Cadena COPE, before going on to add, “In the second leg at Anfield, they will score against us, but we will win 2-1.”

I thought Benni was our best player in the game, was constantly involved and trying to make things happen.

For all those who have been slating Rafa recently, I dedicate that win for you.

Well taken goal from Benayoun, didn't do a lot in the game

i thought he was one of our better players...stuck his foot in, held the ball up and tried to release when ever he could...

[spud_gun]

Has he resigned yet?

[JohnDoe]

Benayoun had a top game, as usual from him lately.
