final scores

Madrid Dortmund 2-1
Milan Lokomotiv 1-0
Basel Deportivo 1-0
Man. United Juventus 2-1
 
Depor lost so United is almost through.

Juve will have to sweat it a little. cough... apchiu... czhuu...
 
Very open game which created chances for both sides. The ref was a joke. Rudd deserved a pen and he carded united players frequently while letting of juve players. Hopefully scholes is ok and becks looked fine even though he was limping a bit at the end. Hate to see that goal go in at the end but oh well. Becks two wonderful crosses one from open play and one from a corner. Like i said he is the one who will guide us to the promised land.

You're right not many. He didn't even try to move when Nedved hit the post ;)
 
Should have played O'Shea from the begining, Silvestre has had a few bad ones on the bounce. We looked much better with O'Shea.

Agree - I said so after the Arsenal game.

Silvestre's passing was abysmal - although defensively he was ok.

True.

Not only did he do a great job on Camoranesi, he was pretty dangerous coming up forward as well.

Weastie, did you see the Madrid game?

O,shea will turn out to be a top class player,
I think he has everything a top player needs ,pace, skill with the ball and great vision

Saw Raoul's goal. Excellent determination. Inzaghi would have never scored that goal ;)

Ronaldo's... lucky.

Lehman could have saved both.

Damn right Weastie. Why the bloke has been benched after his earlier contributions is beyond me. LB fine but I say if he can't be played there then bloody well find somewhere for him. There are one or two who should be sidelined to make room for a form guy like him.
 
Silvestre has just been interviewed by TF1. Apparently he suffers from his ankle.

The journalist couldn't help asking him about the Ferguson-Beckham incident.

Journalist : "Good victory that must confort you after the defeat vs Arsenal and all what has been written about the incident. We know that the British press often exagerates".

Answer by Mickaël : "Yes, but this time they have accurately written what has really happened".

He hasn't added details...just had an enigmatic smile and said "it doesn't hapen every day to have the arch of the eyebrows opened, but well, it's the life of a dressing room".

Fab was nowhere to be seen, usually he speaks to the TF1 journalist when United wins in the CL, he probably didn't want to be asked about the "incident".

Mickey's always so honest. Journalists must love him...none of those bland, non-answer quotes from him!
 
So why couldn't Silvester keep his mouth shut?! a simple i didn't see the incident, ala Wenger would have been appropriate!

anyway..... i wonder who leaked the story originally....

Or may be he was upset after the late goal. He seems to have shouted much to his defenders this evening.

I don't think that's his way. He's always been really blunt and honest.

I don't know if the British press will use that... But we don't know what have thought the players... I guessed that they were on Beckham's side in this affair. May be they have been schocked. I like and respect Ferguson very much, but I wouldn't accept to receive a shoe in my face by my boss !

Thats true....however he's has a very short fuse.....IF Indeed Becks said something back to him, which seems the case....then thats well out of order. The boot in the face was an accident, doubt you could do that if you tried!

I've heard rumours that its Beckham who leaked the story.... wonder why he never wore his hat as per usual, straight after the incident?

I've read that Rio had told the story to an Arsenal player . So it could come from Arsenal. But I don't know if it's true. It can come from someone who knows well Beckham or one of the United players, who knows ? The papers have their "inside sources".

I don't know. Rumours are rumours, I never trust them. One thing is sure, Beckham didn't try to hide the injury. But imagine, if his eye had been touched...

He would have only got a bruised eye.

bloody hell.... these guys, are they poofs or sommat? <img src="confused.gif" border="0">
 
Whatever about the injury, Becks was great tonight, he seems to be adding little bits to his game all the time he isnt afraid to try run by players or little tricks anymore. Its great to see this variation, and a superb passage of play to set-up RVN!

He should know better, why fuel the gossip? It's in the team's interest to calm down the situation.
