please dont tell me your falling into the trap of the likes of Arsenal and Newcastle.
pretty (attacking) football is the priority.
I'm glad (well not really, but you know what I mean) that Fergie has eventually sussed it out.
That's why Fergie (in his years of English domination), and other English clubs havent been successful in Europe - 3 teams in the semi-final counts for nothing unless one of them actually wins it

I think Utd have always had the quality throughout the team that Arsenal dont have. Their pretty football is different to ours, because when the chips are down and everything is against us we can perform to a high level defensively as you might expect of Liverpool or Chelsea.
We bottled it in Barca, Ronaldo wasn't the only one. We were under huge pressure and everytime we got the ball we were too scared of them to do anything with it. We gave it away again and again. I dont think that was the tactics, and when i say it looked like we came for a 0-0 thats what it was. It looked like. The plan would have been to be strong at the back, but would also have been to offer more.
We had to play out the game and defend because we bottled the big occasion, like we did in Milan last year. But the difference is, our matured team managed to scratch out a positive result, unlike last time around.
Barca may get the draw or win at OT, because they have quality too, but rest assured in front of 65000 Mancs (ok 6000 Mancs 35000 southerners and 20000 miscellaneous) we will not be bottling it.

i beg to differ.. it does count, i mean it just goes to show how great our league is, and one of them will win it anyway.. an all English will just put the icing on the cake.
