RE: .::Champions League 2009::.
Arsenal sucked big time. Big let down. I was expecting a good fight.
I'm a United fan but I have to say this.. the first half, I hated the way the ref gave away soft decisions in United's favour (like the free kick to Ronaldo where he scored in the 11th min)
The sending off of Fletcher was appalling.

As for the Chelsea match, I really think Chelsea drew the short straw. nimicitor said something about van de sar not being worked.. well, barca made only ONE shot on target.. which they scored. Cech made 0 saves :P
Chelsea imo deserved better. At least a couple of penalties. The Malouda one was contentious. The Drogba one in the first half should have been given.
But more than that, the two hand balls towards the end (around 85+ mins and 95-96min after Barca scored) should have both been given. So that's 3 penalties against them.
As for Abidal's sending off, he deserved to be sent off in the first half and a penalty be given to Chelsea. The time he was *actually* sent off he did nothing :P Two wrongs don't make a right but meh.. that's football.

So its going to be United vs. Barca. I pip United to win. Messi doesn't do well against English clubs.. most of the Barca players don't. (90+ goals between the 3 forwards and no goals for more than 210 mins :P 160+ goals in total by the team this year)
I feel the match is going to be sucky.
Barca 0-1 Manchester United.

Thanks ref for denying us a free flowing United vs Chelsea repeat.
Despite being a United fan, I would rather see a good match with Chelsea where we could lose than a sucky match with Barca where we mostly would win.

Btw, I know Barca are a great side in great form. They just totally suck against English clubs. They can't handle them. And iirc, both their full backs are suspended. Puyol should be back though.
So go figure :)
@Time: Any predictions? :P
