No not at all, we'd have more chance of beatng you in a one off game not over 2 legs of champs league football

Arsenal would be more difficult to beat in the final (if either get there, same with chelsea) than liverpool imo

I would just much rather lose to a team from london than a local team + plus i have many liverpool supporting friends

My brother ffs supports them

Im amazed they can do such a good job with one kid though and then not with the other.

Can only guess he was planned and wanted, and you were just an accident, so they gave all the love to your bro.

Fenners 1 Chelsea 2, and Arsenal 1 Liver 2

Good performance from United last night, the defence was solid as a rock and didn't look like conceding even though Roma did have chances, Ronaldo again with a great header and a piss easy goal for Rooney.

Barca with a gd win also, Bojan with another piss easy goal for them.

Roma had about 3 or 4 good chances as was only down to poor finishing that they didnt score.

They didn't look like conceding becasue Roma didn't have any one decent to finish

The United defending was superb as was Rio and Van Der Sar.

Does when, just at the start of the 2nd half, a ball came over all defenders and the keeper, and the Roma captain volleyed it over the bar from 4yrs infront of an open goal - not look like United conceeding?

You always disagree with what I say so this doesn't surprise me.

Did you seriously think Roma were actually gonna put the ball in the back of the net because I didn't, partly because the United defending was good and Roma had no one that looked like they was going to put the ball in the net, yes they had chances but it was obvious the team wasn't going to score.

No, Im disagreeing because for me Roma missing an open goal from 4-5yrds does look like United conceeding.

Now dont get me wrong, as United defended brilliantly and kept Roma out, but they created chances where they could of scored and at times had United so much on the back foot (mostly after United scored) that I thought a goal was coming at any minute.

Roma did have great periods of the game like that I agree, but I could just tell they wasn't going to score.
If they had Totti in the same situation may be it would of been a different outcome.
Credit to United though.

Remember we didn't have vidic in the second half, and rio isn't quite as strong without him, even though he had an excellent game, those two suit eachothers game perfectly

Yeah Im not saying you didnt have a great game and played well defensively, Im just saying that for anyone to suggest Roma never looked like scoring is a little ridiculous as they had numerous very good chances.

Is Arsenal/Liverpool only on Sky tonight?

Ive got a bet on, Aresenal to win, and it being a draw at halftime.

Nah BskyB won the rights for most between 2009-2012 and ITV won a smaller chunk of hand picked games which i think is pretty much the way it's been this season as well.

Roma didn't look like scoring though
Not one player on the park looked even remotely like he was going to put the ball in the net, out of the whole team the only player I thought might score(before the game kicked off) was Vucinic and Mancini, and they was both very poor.
