Not a good result, disappointing from both ends
How was it only 3 minutes added anyway? Not that it mattered.
FT 2-2
Arrghhh! Frustrating how we've thrown this result away again.

Launch it for feck's sake.
What were we doing there??
And our corners are appalling.

We have got to be the worst users of the corners.
So we are out!
So we are out!
Our corners are so fecking shit.
Barca :x
It's utterly and completely woeful and embarrassing that we're going to finish 2nd or not qualify at all from a group of Benfica, Basel and Galati. Absolutely pathetic.
Well that was shit. Tempo was great when we equalised but then once they did we went shit again. Berba should've scored, carrick was fantastic. IMO Hernandez ought to have been brought on earlier.
We've made what should've been an easy group more difficult with our performances at OT.

fecking hell, how haven't we sailed through this? First XI in Basel please, none of this fecking Fletcher and Valencia shit.
piss poor result but I though an exciting game , it had everything but the win.
Benfica deserved there draw.
Benfica deserved there draw.
Good game.
Load of shite.
So there is no way we would make top of group?
Err, yeah that's the point I was making. I think we'll go through but it's far from nailed on as whathisface was suggesting.
feck, 2 big cock ups from Jones and De Gea cost us. Now we have to beat Basle (I think) and chances are we'll be second in the group anyway.
Exactly. Jesus Christ, talk about some of these people over reacting for stating the obvious that we still have a fair bit to do to get out of this group.
Ah well, still in our hands.
What? how do you work that out?
I hate to tell you but Fletcher is our first XI.

I typed everyone of those....

if we beat Basle we are top?
That was hugely entertaining and somewhat frustrating at the same time.
At least City lost.
If we beat Basel and Galuti hold Benfica, then we'll top the group. Benfica has to drop points though.
Hope we can avoid a loss at Basel.
Had they beaten us at Old Trafford without that Young equalizer, we would be very nearly out right now.

Disappointing, tough journey from here.
Surely we should not take corners and give it away as a goal kick.
Are we level on points with Basle or will a draw take us through?
Pls lets not OVER REACT
All is OK
This is a fundamentally new team to the one that has reached 3 out of the last 4 CL finals. Its still an emerging piece of work.
It will be tough but Im fully confident we will do the job in Basle.

It's going to be hilarious when we come up against Barca, Munich or Madrid in the next round. I really can't believe what a bloody mess we've made from the easiest group on paper.
Need to win against Basel.United always do it the hard way
central midfield.
Benfica's away goals count for more.
Benfica will beat Galati comfortably. They are at home.
Don't remember last time one player got me so frustrated like Young today.
Seriously shitting myself now!
They can probably get a draw in Basel with Vidic and Rooney back. But it's going to be tough. And so needless.
De Gea blew it. But Ashley young was a disgrace. Everyone else was ok. It would have been an encouraging 2nd half performance if de Gea had not screwed up.
