@aguero 95th min(Liverpool)... 27 years?? United first qualified for the CL in the 93/94 season, forgive me but I think that's 19 years. 2 finals beaten by possibly the best club side in history. I think even Fergie agreed United should have won it more times. There were 2 semi's we under performed, I think down to the players rather than Fergie. But if we look at from another way, only RM and Barca have it more in that time, both 3 times. So 2 times looks so awful. But it's easier to dress it up so you can mock it, if your a sad jealous person who can't cope with United's success. I could come down to your level and say it was so much easier to win the then EC when Liverpool had 4 of their wins. But I remember watching a couple those games and wanting Liverpool to win. I guess fans didn't act like crying spoilt little boys back then and were man enough to able to acknowledge another club's success even if they didn't like it. But your name says it all about you, that's an insult to your own club but I'm guessing you can only be a school kid.

Knocked out by BASEL!! in the group stage last year and a stupid mistake by Nani cost them this year, but they still fell apart when he was sent off. Its not game over when your down to ten men look at Chelsea last year 2-0 nil down with Terry sent off and they still went on to draw 2-2 against one of the all time great teams. So United are guilty of underachieving just like the rest. Its just a blip, English clubs will be back next year.

Aye, because they came so close last season, tough group and all that....

I think 'outstanding' against Real is stretching it a bit but it can't be denied that the Nani red card did deprive us of seeing whether we could have gone on and beaten them, it was certainly a better showing than in Europe last season anyway! I don't believe that United would have won the CL this season but we could have made it to the semi's, maybe even the final, but it wasn't to be and we move on...

What do the press expect Ferguson to say? That Man U were crap? LOL He is so predictable you could set a clock by him.

You tell em boss. If city are going to continuously be a waste of space and only beat relegated la liga teams and bayern munichs reserves, can you give your place to Liverpool, or whichever of the London clubs doesn't make 4th? Or fulham cos Martin jol was a lasagne away from qualification with his last London team

It would be pretty unfair to point to Man Utd as being part of any recent English deteriation in the Champions League, after all they have been poor in Europe for years
