You don't need to keep the ball to score. Our best chances in the last game happened after some long balls forward which Welbeck then got to but I have a feeling that Bayern is standing a bit deeper this time to prevent these situations.
Not great corners - disappointing as set pieces seem to be our way in. Smalling not happy.
Looks like he was just winded.
Yeah but their camera angle was shit for that, it was hard to tell.
Bayern won't sit back and you are forgetting that united aren't expected to go through.
It's a completely differant kind of pressure.
In fairness, Smalling wouldn't have let Neuer pick him up if he was that bad...
We need to go for this now. As it stands we are going out anyway.
Tackle big Phil.
No. Well barely see the ball in the last 5 plus minutes.
Ribery seems to like Jones's pocket. Refuses to come out.
Too many hopeful long punts upfield. I remember us doing better than this in the first leg.
Januzaj needs to come on at some point
you lost me there???
No...
Hang on till the last 15. Lets not hang ourselves.
Because we have Carrick and Fletcher, and they have Kroos, Gotze and Mueller?
Did Rooney just kick the ball out of play there whilst trying to dribble?
And well in Fletcher. That's exactly what Fellaini didn't do last week - track the midfield runner bursting into the box for the cutback.

Yes they won't sit back. They'll just pop it about pointlessly while we can do nothing about it. It's like going behind against Spain. Painful.
We're appalling when we actually get the ball.
Our players seem so much worse when they are on the ball
There's a dullness to current exchanges we might exploit.
Rooney has been awful.
Great from Evra there.
Bah Rooney
So we have to make a change and go more attacking at some point.
When?
Who should come on?
In place of who?

That's because we are.
I'm in shock at how bad Rooney has been over the two legs.
Rooney aspiring to Joey Barton's standards..
I think its because we arent being coached to do it.
Rooney refusing to just shoot again.
A half fit Rooney is always one of the worst players on the pitch
Rooney looks injured. Shouldn't have played.
Rooney has been useless today
He's done well so far and the haters wont admit it
He's always awful when he's returning from injury or isn't 100%.
It's why I wasn't too thrilled about having him play with injections.
The only player we have capable of running with the ball is Kagawa.
Kagawa looks on a different level on the ball to the others. They should take his cue and retain possession once in awhile.
What was that from Rooney?miss kick? Rooney and valencia seems to be hindering our attack, so far.
What's with the massive block of empty seats, by the way? To separate the away fans or something?
Januzaj needs to come on.
Quite honestly, I would have thought that if any player would be able to hit his former level without much problems, it would be Götze, simply because of his huge raw ability, but so far he only had very few moments in the Bayern shirt when he looked as influential as at Dortmund. His abilities have not really suffered that much, but I think his former mentality of just going out there and enjoy football has under the restrictions Guardiola placed on him.
My opinion on the whole transfer has not changed since it was announced. As a player he would have benifited more if he would have stayed for another year or two at Dortmund to fully mature and develop. Can´t say I feel much pity for him, though, because he chose a man with a huge name over the most influential person in his career.
