I'm just hoping for a Clean Sheet or an away goal. I don't really see us being able to keep Zlatan out of the score sheet. Question is, which Chelsea team will show up. We don't have Matic in midfield, which is really going to hurt our performance of trying to dominate the midfield. I expect Jose will park the bus and hope to knick a counter attack into a goal.
 
As per his usual European tactics, regardless of who he manages.
 
Mourinho has picked a team with no strikers by the looks of it....Cech, Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill, Azpi, Luiz, Ramires, Willian, Oscar, Hazard, Schurrle...
 
Mourinho's Chelsea away in the first leg, boring.
I look forward to watching Real Madrid vs Borussia Dortmund.

No, Schürrle played as a Center Forward for Leverkusen so, he will be playing in that CF role.

We already conceded lol
 
HUZZAH. The no strikers route didn't work.
 
1-1 , Hazard pen and great finish by Lavezzi, Real 1-0 up through Bale...
 
This ref is harsh. Yellow to Ramirez and a PSG defender without prior warning. Chelsea get a penalty that wasn't even a penalty.
 
Wow, Pastore. The was magical.

Edit: PSG looking good at 3-1, though they will be concerned with the injuries to Ibra and Verratti.
 
^^ Indeed, reminded me of Walcott's goal a while back.

I don't think Chelsea can be ruled out just yet, they've got the away goal so all they need is a 2-0 win at home.
Dortmund can be though.
 
So United are Britain's best hope of having a team in the Semi-Finals....how the hell did that happen?! :lol:
 
Well to be fair he has had a good season, scored a lot more than he did last season, only scored twice all last season!
 
Worth pointing out that Pep did make changes and left Ribery and Robben out for the loss yesterday....but then again Moyes made changes and we won 4-0!
 
So the Quarter finals second legs start tomorrow, United are in Munich on Wednesday and I think Moyes should pick an attacking team and just go for it...we didn't expect to get this far so what have we got to lose??

Agreed, if Rooney and Rafael are fit, this is how I think we should line up:

De Gea
Rafael - Rio - Vidic - Evra
Carrick - Fletcher
Valencia - Kagawa - Welbeck
Rooney
 
Rooney probably will start, its been in the papers that he'll have a painkiller injection on play through the pain, I want him to pick Hernandez as well but I don't know who would drop out....and how the holy hell can you not have Jones?!

Chicharito is still a good option to have considering how he played at the weekend. And I think that the combination of Rio and Vidic at CB is very strong right now.

That is probably the only way United will be able to keep up. Bayern seems to attack a lot at home which has left them a bit open at the back this year. United need to attack to exploit that.
 
Bayern will have Schweinstiger and Martinez out but they have players to replace them like Gotze and Thiago if he is fit....Also Chelsea-PSG is tomorrow...
