Welbeck will be the main dude for you lot tonight. I'm expecting a great game from him.
1-1 draw and beat them on pens. We did it, it's easy.

There is nothing on the Bayern bench.
Even if they score first, it doesn't affect us in the slightest. I have a feeling we have a real chance here

..and while defending/off the ball?
I have an exam this week so I know how you feel. I tried to resign myself to a defeat but the hope just creeps on in. Good team to. I just hope it's a good performance.I'm genuinely bricking it right nowDoesn't help that I'm in the middle of exams adding to the nerves, but I haven't felt this nervous/anxious/excited for a game since Madrid last year.
we have to. I would rather go out fighting than go out wimpering.
Bloody hell, I've just seen Bayern's line up. Lets hope it proves to be overkill from Guardiola.
We need to draw in fouls in hope of set pieces as corners, free kicks and penalties are where we're most likely going to score from. Bayern will overreact to every challenge and will possibly try to get one of our players sent off as revenge for Schwein so we have to be wary.
Its seems that with the media that the next challenge is always the biggest
We will be sitting deep. So pace in our defence is not as crucial, so Moyes drops Ferdinand. We're going to be closed quick in the middle we play Fletcher, probably the least technical player in the PL.
Agreed, I may be a little bias but Bayern and Barca are EZ-Work. Its Basel Im scared of!
Who made the decision that Rooney will play with pain killing injections?
Rooney or Moyes?
Rooney or Moyes?
We can do this. Carrick and Fletcher need a big game.
Think Kagawa will play exactly where Giggs started last week. Left sided central midfield with Welbeck playing slightly further up, hitting them on the break.
Oh ffs, ricardinho really did a number on you!- Bayern Munich team: Neuer, Lahm, Boateng, Dante, Alaba, Muller, Kroos, Gotze, Robben, Mandzukic, Ribery. Subs: Raeder, Van Buyten, Rafinha, Pizarro, Weihrauch, Weiser, Hojbjerg.
- Manchester United team: De Gea, Jones, Smalling, Vidic, Evra, Fletcher, Carrick, Valencia, Rooney, Kagawa, Welbeck. Subs: Lindegaard, Ferdinand, Giggs, Hernandez, Young, Buttner, Januzaj.
- Referee: Jonas Eriksson (Sweden)
Hit them hard in the first few minutes. PUTEM UNDER PRESSURE.
He dosen't rate our team, that is clear.
COME ON UNITED! See you all on the other side...
lunatic.
No use of the word try in Moyes' pre match comments there.
Bashing Fletcher was understandable when we had a midfield. Now he's one of two who actually know how to play the position in our squad.
Really hope Kagawa and Welbeck shine in this game.
Well, it kind of does. It means we have to score 2 to go through (without going to penalties).
Pundits all baffled by no Rio
Holey moley...delighted with that lineup, and a strong bench as well.I'm trying not to get too optimistic and failing miserably!
God I haven't felt like this in ages, every chance we could do something special, and every chance we could get battered.
It feels surreal being in a position to go to the semis given our season.

Really not sure why they're acting like dropping Ferdinand is the worst thing ever. They seem to forget how good Mandzukic is in the air, and how Smalling is probably our best aerial defender. Not to mention, Bayern will be so much more direct tonight, it won't be a game in which we can just camp outside the box and watch them pass for fun, they'll be stretching us defensively.
Yes he is in his position. Awful.
Souness and Carragher seem massively shocked by Smalling starting the place of Rio. They seem to think it's a huge mistake.
Have to agree with gary, Souness and Garragher, would've preferred Rio at the back because of his experience and distribution. Smalling can put in a good performance, but it's a big test.
Can't fault Moyes for that team line up at all.
It's hope for a monumental performance time.

I hope this isn't decided by a dodgy referee decision
Really let's see how long it takes before he's pointing at his man running past him.
I'm a bit concerned with how Smalling will cope with their insane level of pressing as soon as he touches the ball. Hopefully he just hoofs it and doesn't try to get cute. I see him as a safer option defensively than Rio at this point though.
Just for that I hope Smalling bangs in a header for us.
If we score the first goal I can see us go through. Otherwise...probably not.
Fellaini cost us a goal by losing his man in the first leg. At least Fletcher contributes more by keeping the ball.
I think chances will fall to Welbeck again. I just hope he makes them count, will be huge for him as well personally
Imagine an early goal, or a Bayern sending off....
Agree with duffer, Welbeck is key here. Have a feeling he'll be the guy the chances fall for, he needs to take them. DDG needs to be in beast mode too.
feck I'm nervous, how can the players stand it?
