Well, obviously I'm going all United on this one. And this matchup is just another backup point as to why the top English clubs are the best as of right now.
We're looking very confident and the fans are great..
-
Chelsea will win the EPL and this :pimp:
-
Oh shut it with the English teams bullcrap. :down:
-
United will take it all !
-
United will take it all !
:bowdown:
-
These two teams are definitely in the top 5 of the best teams in the world. They both deserve to be in the final.

Nah,Chelsea sucks :biggrin:
-
chelsea sucks but she will win!!!!! :down: :down:
-
Ballack has been immense for Chelsea since his come back. I'm very happy for him. Hopefully he'll carry on his form to the EUROs for Germany.
I think Man U will win this one but it's too hard to tell. We'll probably see penalties in this one.
-
Since the finals are on may 21st, which is wednesday (correct me if I'm wrong), I think we should start discussing it.
I think Man U is going to win it all. They're coming off a big EPL title, and that means that they've got a full head of steam. Yes Chelsea will be out for revenge etc...but with Manchester United riding a feeling like winning the EPL title, theres really not much that can stop them.
-
Chelsea to win by way of TKO 3-1
-
no I think Chelsea will lose at home because of the reasons stated above. Man U is feeling pretty happy right now, and you play better, more creative soccer when you're happy.
-
I'm going for a Man.U 2-1 victory. It's going to be very tight though
-
Chelsea is not at home.
It's in Moscow.
Already a thread for this.. will merge it though.
-
Cool facts.. :biggrin:
- Ryan Giggs will break Sir Bobby Charlton's club record 758 appearances should the Welshman figure in the final.
- Chelsea have been caught off more times that any other team in this season's competition...48
- Out of all the players contesting the final, Drogba has committed the most fouls - 32.
- A paltry 24,973 people turned up to see Chelsea kick off this season's European campaign at home to Rosenborg. That's roughly 17,500 below seat capacity.
- Chelsea has taken 81 shots on target this season, and 81 shots off target this season.
-
borg do you think giggs will start?
-
Scholes will, considering he missed the 99' CL final, and he got United into the finals with that stunner goal.
Giggs will probably be subbed in late, but he could start.. once again, it's between him and Nani.
-
I'll say nani here, hes the faster, more skillful player at the moment.
-
Striking options?
Rooney & Tevez? Or a lone striker with Ronaldo pinching forward?
-
I hope Chelsea are not going to have to face Teves the whole hes my only biggest fear.
We better win because I got a bet with my brother hes overseas now but if we loose I have to wire $50 US to him and if Chelsea win he wires the money to me.
-
Big bet to lose there melbourne. :biggrin:
10 years later.. in the CL final again.
-
yeah I think they'll start tevez and not rooney
-
They're both pretty good against Chelsea.. Tevez scored a late winner against them, and Rooney causes havoc in there.
Ronaldo will be covered hard by Ashley Cole, so I wouldn't be surprised if SAF moved him up front to try and avoid Cole or just let Ronaldo run wherever he wants.
He plays on the left;
He plays on the right;
That boy Ronaldo;
Makes England look shite
-
lol I love songs with brit accents
-
Big bet to lose there melbourne. :biggrin:
10 years later.. in the CL final again.
None of my teams have ever been in the CL final I have to put it all on the line. I don't care. I remember 99 like it was yesterday everyone on my floor in my unit where watching it together 4 in the morning only one person was supporting United. The crowd was very upset. Hopefully doesn't happen again. :popcorn:
yeah I think they'll start tevez and not rooney
That would be the smart thing to do if you ask me. But others like Fergie probably think otherwise. :dontknow:
-
Ha I understand. ;)
It's going to be interesting to see the starting lineup.
Carrick or Hargreaves? I think Scholes will start for sure.
-
maybe hargreaves, he doesn't really make mistakes
-
Has he ever been in a CL final?
Tevez;
Rooney;
Giggs, Scholes, Hargreaves, Ronaldo;
Evra, Vidic, Rio, Brown;
VDS;
Looks pretty good to me.. the midfield looks solid.
-
indeed. I dont see Man U losing.
-
i have a feeling chelsea will win this.
-
I have a feeling that your feeling is wrong :thumbsup:
-
This one should be good and close. 2-1 for Man U after extra time. Tevez and Vidic will score the goals for Man U with Drogba scoring Chelsea's lone goal.
-
i cant wait the match!!just some hours left :3some:
-
Manchester United will win 4:1
Ronaldo will score hat trick :biggrin:
i hope so...
-
1-0 Man Utd .
Ronaldo
-
2-1 in favor of Chelsea.
11th Minute: Drogba (Chelsea)
52nd Minute: Ronaldo (Man. Utd.)
86th Minute: Lampard (Chelsea)
-
Can't WAIT for this iish, I'm gonna sleep for about 5 hours and its show time.
-
Just a few hours away. Can't wait!!
I have a (bad) feeling Chelsea will take this 2-1 and I have a feelling Ronaldo won't have a good game tonight. He'll probably be closed down too much so hopefully that opens up space for the other fowards.
I'll be out some 2 hours before the game drinking cause I can't stand sitting here at home waiting for it to start; thought it be a good way to kill some time before kick off. :cheers:
-
Opening ceremony was insane! :cheers:
Looks like an interesting game, I'm gonna shit myself.
There's a lot more Man Utd fans, I can say that for sure!
EDIT:
Ronaldo made Essien look garbage!
-
Golo, Ronaldo is not quiet.. he scored!
1-0 United :cheers:
-
fuckkkkkkkkkk
1-1 :down:
-
Our goal was fucking amazing, nice passing by Brown and Scholes.. and then boom, nice header by Ronaldo.
Stupid goal for them though, bounced right to Lampard. :angry:
I think we're owning the game, a lot more chances, .. could have had 3 goals for sure.. that chance by Tevez and Carrick..
2nd half will be scary.
-
we were much better
we had the ball 65 - 35 %
go MANCHESTER...........
-
Chelsea is just turning on. Ronaldo was great in the first half, but towards the end began to vere off into complaining. I would have given Carvalho a red for that tackle though. I think Drogba will score the winner.
-
chelsea was just LUCKY
-
Ronaldo's killing Essien out there! :bowdown:
-
pfffffffffffffff.............almost drogba
m.u got sleep
-
Extra time.. :saywhat:
-
Chelsea is lucky they have about 20 shots to United's 8 or 9. And don't bring up possession; I think it's evened out fairly now.
-
it's very exciting, i dont hope it will come to penalties. that sucks
-
bye bye drogba :lol:
-
You stole my words. ;)
PENALTIES..
-
Penalty! Come on ! Man!

The actual miss was Terry..
-

Ronaldo didn't control the game. He played well for the most part but certainly didn't dictate the game
-
he controled it when he had the ball. And every time he touched the ball almost, something happened. (and dont be a douche and say 'of course something happened' because you know what I mean)

AHAHHAHA YESSSS!!!!!!!!!!!

Indeed, that miss was insane, he had the CL trophy on a fork, but he threw it away. But that's just better for us United fans !
:pimp:

Champions!!!! :cheers:
4 months ago I had a bet with this chick; I said United will make the final and Ronaldo will score the first goal of the game with a hearder in the 12th minute. Boy was I close!!! :lol:

he obviously has psychic powers stemming from his fs skills
-
Oh please. The better team lost we controled the game, but we didn't finish them off when we should have. Penelties is no way to decide this shit. Drogba bitch slaped that faggot. :thumbsup: No biggy now Avram will go everything turned out pretty well.

Vidic is serbian, and serbians kill, he would kill drogba if players didn't stopped him, i bet he would, becouse he came from Red Star and Delije are one of the worst hools in the world
-
Vidic could touch Drogba if he had both his hands and feet together
Vidic is a bitch just like all the other Man U players

United controled the first half up but didn't finish Chelsea off when they should have, via Carrick and Tevez twice. Chelsea equalized at the best possible time and came back the 2nd half having the initiative but they didn't really create much chances.
Overall United have been the best team in the CL this season. They rode thier luck a few times, but every team that wins the CL has a bit of luck along the way. Desreved winners in the end.
:cheers:

I lost. He didn't score in the 12th minute.

Vidic is the best boxing player in ManU's squad
-
chelsea played better through out the majority of the game. i knew ronaldo would miss his penalty i cant stand when players do the shimmy, stopping run ups on penalties. did anyone notice all of chelsea penalties went to the right and anelka went to the left and it was saved lol.
drogba was a complete penis getting sent off too like usual.
-
yeahg why would you do that? This applies for both statements.
-
I think United had a way better run at the Champion's League as a whole. We fully deserved it if you look at the way we played, and we were also unbeaten I believe.
Chelsea played very well in the final, but we had our chances too.
This is sort of similar to 1999 if you think about it .. they hit the crossbar and the post.. which also happed in 1999. Then United made a stellar comeback (in present date, it would be in the penalty kicks).
If you've seen the 1999 highlights tons of times you should be able to decipher what I'm saying.
-
who do you all think was better, the 1999 team, or this team?
-
man, when I saw van der sar's save the first thing I thought was: now borg is gonna make a huge post with red letters saying champions or something just like when they won the premier league
-
and he did, I think
I bascially thought 'holy shit we won' and started screaming
-
when ronaldo missed the penalty i was so mad....i thought that we would lose !
-

SAF believes this team is his best ever.
man, when I saw van der sar's save the first thing I thought was: now borg is gonna make a huge post with red letters saying champions or something just like when they won the premier league
Obviously. :)

Same. Yeah, you can call it fate.. Terry missing and all.
-
same here...but he played well...scored a nice goal and went on some breathtaking runs
I dont care what SAF thinks, hes saying that because everyone wants him to say it...I care what you think
-
and i thought also that terry shoot was goal at the beiginning,beacause i was in a net cafe
and all ppl said "GOAL".. but when i realised that he missed i happy and i was sure that we gonna win :banana:
-
I'm not entirely sure, see, I've been a United fan since 2000, right after I visited Malta and my uncle got me into them, but I really only watched the ENTIRE season and watched almost every game since 2006-2007. The Fifa 06 World Cup got me into it a lot, so then I watched United and ever since I'm hooked.
So it wouldn't be fair for me to answer that.

I see...I didnt watch the entire 1999 season, so I cant say either.

Funny you say that. I've beaten up many Serbs in my day. They all end up running away crying. :lol:
-
they are also antisemitic...stupid serbs :cursing:
-

Ronaldo played well. First half he was very good and United's main outlet. However saying he controlled the game is going a little far. Chelsea dominated for the entire second half when Ronaldo, largely, went missing.
All in all he played well, I would have liked him to have seen him drag his team along in the second half though, I was almost waiting for him to do it, but it never came. The penalty miss as well, showed perhaps, that he is not quite got that ice cold ability in situations like that. I remember Zidane smashing a penalty top bin in Euro 2000 Semi Final. That is a truly great player....Ronaldo is showing signs of getting there, but isn't quite at that point yet.
-
yeah but the remember that headbutt in 2006? :biggrin:

United only dominated for small periods of the first half to be honest. Even when United where on the ball and pushing forward Chelsea was playing their normal game. Soon as Chelsea got on the ball united would get 10 defenders behind the ball. If anything we where unlucky seeing as Lampard hit the post and Drogba. Firdinand and Vidic where shitting bricks every time the ball came near Drogba. Dirty tactics all over Rooney, Scholes, Evra, Teves kept fouling Makelele that starting arguments. Ronaldo going down at every opportunity an extremely disgraceful performance. They where trying to get him sent off from the get go with Rooney and Vidic saying hes a diver to the media before the game. Vidic was fouling him trying to provoke him through out the whole game. United relied on Ronaldo to take the pressure off the defense but Essien pretty much took him out of the game without having to mark him that much at all. The whole world saw who the better team on the field that night was. United and their legion of glory hunters around the world can have their time in the sun for now. There will be next season.
-
Essien didn't do quite as well as he maybe could of. Ronaldo's header was almost a free one. Where was Essien? Ronaldo skipped past him maybe 3 times so easily.. he just ran down the left wing and was clear. Other times he tried to cut in and drag more defenders towards him to open up the play.
-
so are you going to support next season borg i lost the Idiots guide to Bandwagon jumping. Inter, Marid, Jventus?

I only remember one time and that time his cross was cleared, the second time he came into the box Essien didn't even get back from the attack on time and Ronaldo scooped his shot wide. The only time he got the better on Essien was a laps in concentration when that cross came in from Brown.
-
of course i hate both teams but i still think chelsea should have won. man u dominated the first half and chelsea the second and hit the post twice. john terry was unfortunate to slip with his penalty. shows you how cruel football can be. avrant gram deserved at least one trophy with all the stick he has been getting (poor "always angry" isreli)
-
yes ofcourse Serbian are strong :lol:
haha tell them that in face :lol:
-

and which team do u support?
-
What a heart breaking moment for Terry. I wanted Man U to win but that really was sad to see. I wish it could have been that Ashley Cole cunt who missed the penalty. Too bad it happened to the one player who didn't deserve it.
I wonder when Ronaldo will stop with all that penalty run-up bullshit. I predicted that he'd miss it. He's killing his momentum by stopping as well. Do you all think he'll be taking them next season? He'll probably get one more chance at it.
-
anyone heard about this? terry spitting at tevez.
http://www.goal.com/en/Articolo.aspx?ContenutoId=708272
-
Haha, looks like it a bit there. Well done Chunk.
-
Yeah, you can see it just before Tevez gets his yellow card, because then Tevez feels his neck where the spit went.
I felt sorry for Terry but fuck him now.
-
maybe terry didnt like the look of that scar on his neck.
-
Fuck Terry? Have you watched Carlos Tevez play vs Columbia? He's a dirty peice of shit.
-
I'll bet he didn't see Tevez wrestle Makalele to the ground in the Chelsea penalty box while the ref wasn't looking causing a stoppage because of a head injury Makelele suffered in the process either.
-
I'll bet he didn't see Tevez wrestle Makalele to the ground in the Chelsea penalty box while the ref wasn't looking causing a stoppage because of a head injury Makelele suffered in the process either.
they clearly tripped each other up
-
I just have to post this, "yeah".
:lol:
-
hahahaha thats fantastic!
-
Hahaha, + karma for that. How did he find his way on that show?! :lol:
-
Tevez grabbed Makalele's face and ripped him to the ground, by the way.
-
Hmm.. I guess everyone can be a cold hard bitch sometimes.. :lol:
-
Tevez is dirty. As a United fan, I know it's hard to admit.
-
I guess I just haven't noticed it as much because well yeah, I'm a United fan and I just don't see it as bad.
-
The only player I like on United is Anderson, because of the dance he was doing while celebrating the win. And he's dirty as shit too.
-
Anderson and Nani's dances are cool. :bowdown:
Scholes is a tough customer though.. :)
-
I'll bet he didn't see Tevez wrestle Makalele to the ground in the Chelsea penalty box while the ref wasn't looking causing a stoppage because of a head injury Makelele suffered in the process either.

Your comical.

WORLD CLASS YEAH?
Yeah. He's always on the English team YEAH. He's always - Yeah!
-
maybe terry didnt like the look of that scar on his neck.
yes, that's true. He applied him a cosmetic treatment
-
"John Terry Vodka; bottled in Russia" :biggrin:
-
"Look Terry, the water is stiff" :lol:
How do people come up with this shit.
-
hahahaha a terrys that falls a part in the box. gotta love these creative vids.
-
How do people come up with this shit.
they've been around for way too long
-
pfff... ManUtd have a lot of luck in penalities :dontknow: Chelsea should win :saywhat:

[enalties are always partly luck anyway

pfff... ManUtd have a lot of luck in penalities :dontknow: Chelsea should win :saywhat:
it actually also works the other way Chelsea haven't had many luck in penalties mainly in the Champions league
but i still wonder
why were Cole and Terry given penalties?
