Pep Guardinia is the better manager for us then Mourinio, according to the baldy chap on Sky Sports
The difference is we're now playing at home, where one or two tiny mistakes can make the difference (away goals). I was quite relaxed watching the away leg, knowing we can score the (hopefully crucial) away goal. Ah, it doesn't make any sense, you're right... we will go through.
I'd go with Nani over Valencia for tonight. One looked as good as any single performance from our wingers in his last match, the other still looked a shadow of his former self.
Sometimes I forget just how big we are as a club. That video doesn't make me forget. It's on!
This is our record at Old Trafford since 2007, for knockout matches. Make of it what you will...
Lille 1-0
Roma 7-1
Milan 3-2
Lyon 1-0
Roma 1-0
Barcelona 1-0
Inter 2-0
Porto 2-2
Arsenal 1-0
Milan 4-0
Bayen 3-2
Marseille 2-1
Chelsea 2-1
Schalke 4-1
I'm quietly confident.

200 Million expected to tune into today's Footballing Christmas Match. Amazing to ponder the level of pressure these players are able to shrug off and perform on such a grand stage.

Less than 4 hours till kick off. Nervous as f*ck. Time to crack open a beer?

Yep. I don't want us to cower through this match - if we genuinely believe we're a big enough European team to have a go for the trophy, then we should be trying to play attacking football at home, at least to some extent. Even against Madrid.
Whilst Valencia was decent against Norwich, better than he has been for a while, Nani is still in the better form. If you want to actually attack down the wing, he's the only choice.

I got really drunk for the first leg.
This leg I think I'm not going to drink, just going to savour the moment and really watch the game.
Get hammered. If we go through you can watch replays on the tv/internet. If we get beat, your sorrows are already half drowned.
Savor the moment with your eyes fully wide open and your heart and mind ready to take it all in. This is what we live for, mates.
I'm stuck in office all day. If I really can't take it before kickoff, I'll have to feign sickness and get out of here.
I'll be watching it on my phone. Just need to find a quiet spot for 2 hrs.

I'm too nervous to watch it. I'll catch it on Teletext.
Are you streaming in in the usual way?
I managed to rope myself into playing a gig and i cant back out now..
might have it on my amp as im playing lol
On your phone? A man's gotta do what a man's gotta do. Well done!
Some third party android app. Hasn't failed yet
I'd just leave the office at 2:30, but that wouldn't fly.
Madrid are apparently upset because they will be wearing their green kits because we're refusing to wear black shorts.

Wouldn't fancy picking the team tonight.
Keeper, fullbacks, Ferdinand, Carrick, Rooney and VP are all nailed on but lots of questions elsewere.
Evans or Vidic?
Nani or Valencia?
Welbeck or Kagawa?
Cleverley, Anderson or Giggs?
Do Young or Hernandez get a look in?
Be very interesting decisions.
