and there you have it! Rangers 0 - 1 United.

Arsenal on the brink of not qualifying for UCL, United on top with 13 points. and to think we have not been playing well...i can only imagine if we did, we would get 21 points from a possible 18 in the group stages!!!

group E results are fascinating.
Roma pulled as tottenhan-arsenal stunt to bayern munich.

@reddevil, yesterday (and during match day one at home)I got an idea of how Barca players, fans, coach and neutrals felt playing against Chelsea last season but one...players packing the bus can be very frustrating. I can't fault Rangers since they were torn to shreds last season leaving the group stage without scoring a goal (even Bursasor scored their first ever European goal last night)when the decided to show some enterprise.

That said, I have more respect for Zilina who took the game to Chelsea and got rewarded with a goal even though they lost. I was wary of Evans & Smalling and I thought they looked composed jana, of course it could have been a different matter with a team with better strikers.

What's more concerning is the way Berba has been acting on the field - the guy throws tantrums every time he gets a wayward pass, is not given the ball when in a good striking position, when he doesn't hit the target - basically ALL the time! Contrast that with Chicharito who goes about his business with calm and conviction - great professional. He's going to be our next best striker and when they sync with Rooney - I fear Berba's 30M pounds (?) spending and skill will all be for nought.

@smano,
Totally agree with you Berba's back to his old languid ways...this guy just needs to be whooped in the ass thoroughly then maybe he will wake up, if he does not - I will take 15M for him...

Another languid player is Macheda...he is young though, but I see Berbatov in him.

For the other strikers you spoke well, But I would like to also single out Wellbeck, he is doing well, did you watch his movement during the Chelsea game I think it was terrific, I think the loan spell is doing him well, If he keeps doing well then, OT will certainly be home to him.

The strikers I fear for are, Berba, Diouf, Macheda in that order....

My question is (with Diouf in mind) just why don't players from Africa do well at Manchester United? such a disappointed I must say!


NB: PONDI, I see you peeping

el-classico is the most special derby match between barcalona and real madrid. most watched among the trully soccer fans.
the last one was very juicy considering that it had a lot to play in who wins the La-Liga.
