Agree. In terms of tempo, passing, skill, creativity no one in the world comes close to Barca at the moment.
To be fair, I wasn't that confident in the lead up to the game but I thought if anyone had a chance in a one off game then United would be that team, especially with Sir Alex in charge.
They completely played us off the park. Valencia just couldn't get in the game (probably explains the string of fouls he committed) like he usually does down that right flank.Same goes for Hernandez. I'm no manager but I really believe he should have been subbed off for Owen around the 60/65 minute mark. We needed to try something and it was obvious it wasn't his day. Would also have loved to see Anderson come on for Giggs to try and spark something. All in all can't complain as it was probably inevitable. Now looking forward to us strengthening in the summer and for the start of the new season!
