Why only 8?
2 more leh??
9) SAF never wear his red underwear
10) Rooney's lucky boots got stolen

Man utd simply too yaya-papaya thinking that they are the best team around.. so complacency sets in
Partrick evra thinking of a boxing match with cesc fabregas and thus no concentrating on the match
Ferdinand just came back from injury
No midfield enforcer (definitely not anderson and carrick)
11. They know nothing about Guardiola
12. poor tactics.
they played into barca's hands. even corner only dare to push 3 man into their box nia.
13: why the fuck put ronaldo at center at the start
where scholes
why anderson
why rooney left side
IMO rooney left is his best place.

i beg to differ.
his best position should b centre, not left.
14.Patrick Evra still dreaming that he is the world's best left back and expect Barca to respect him?
15. Rooney kept losing the ball upfield easily.
16. Ronaldo was getting too frustrated and losing concentration
Originally posted by monoslayer:12. poor tactics.
Yeah, Ron commented on that, along wif this....
"We have to give credit to Barcelona, but they were a bit lucky to be here because Chelsea did not deserve to lose and no-one has mentioned that."
17. Iniesta is a pure genius, he just owns the midfield and can dribble pass players like no tmr
18. Pope support Barcelona
Originally posted by marcteng:1) First goal was the turning point. soft goal to concede.
2)Man Utd midfielders were hoplessly outplayed in the middle of the park.
3) Strikers no support from midfielders
4) stray passes and long balls were making the siuation bad, as the balls just went back to a Barcelona players.
5) Barcelona possession and passing game, made Utd players tire, as they will have to chase back for the ball
6) all the players didnt not played well, everyone of them did not turn up to play.
7) the substitutions maybe played a part
no leader of the field to dictate the match.
When you cant even maintain 100% record against the other 3 top teams in EPL, do you expect to beat Barcelona???
No wonder Old Trafford is know as " The Theatre Of Dream" Keep come dreaming....

Man U clearly lost its top form after the league loss against Liverpool.
From that game onwards, they were struggling against some of the lesser league opponents even though they won their last few games enroute to the league title. Who can forget how it was Macheda who helped them win 1 or 2 games they might have otherwise lost or drawn.
With their average form against a talented barca team, only one result was likely.

Exactly! Everyone was banging about Utd's sizzling form and how Barce were the underdogs and I'm like.... have you seen United play recently? I thought they completely lost the plot this season and it was thanks to Macheda's goals that we won games instead of drawing them like Liverpool, which was why Pool lost. So really, it was Macheda who was the reason why we have the BPL.
Man U is a good team.
But against top quality opponents, you definitely need top form and not just average form to win.
Unless the other quality team is slumping also, then different story lah.
hmm, so easy to blame when the result is know, what worse, it invited all the pests to come and drop in their "two cents".
my take ->
1) MU tried to get the quick goal, but it sort of back-fired.
2) We do need Fletcher, his energy does help. Giggs is good for set plays but he can't track back much. Scholes did not help much too, sadly.
3) Vidic had one of his off days again.
4) Ronaldo may make the most noise after the game, but if only one of his shots in first 10mins went in. but that's football.
5) Barca is a top team and they played to their strength. Kudos to them.
6) Tatics wise, SAF did put in Tevez, but Barca seems to know how to pass the ball around. And technically their MF are sound.
7) Rooney did too much chasing back and compromise his attacking energy.
8) In short, the real MU did not turn up, and on that night, Barca was the better team.
No shame.
