Manchester is going to win 3-1

A10s, this thread is about strategy and tactics, not the score of the Barcelona vs. Man U game. Please don't go off topic any further.

[TheGodEmperor]

anyhow...any critiques of Man U's strategy? I predicted this (see earlier posts) but not to this degree. When I said defensive mids, I didnt mean playing as glorified stoppers/fullbacks! What was SAF thinking, playing to draw?! As I said before, Barca needs to make more of the weaving near post-center-far post runs so that they do not keep on playing the ball along the outside of the 18, and finally put a successful ball across the goal.

I would have liked to have seen Anderson or Hargreaves in the center with Scholes and Carrick.  Park on left; Rooney on right; Tevez to the bench.  You don't go into the Camp Nou and have a track meet.

Barcelona 4–0 Manchester United

I'm pretty sure that was the scoreline the last time United went to the Camp Nou to play against Barcelona.  I'd say that this is an improvement.

adi is right this thread is about tactics. but i recon that second leg matches should be stopped and away goal rules. they all ruin the sport.

no they dont Bro, the away goal rule is because its harder for the visitors to play in the house of another team, picture this:

Sao paulo playing against man united in old trafford, the house and visitor goal rule are good rules and should stay that way

i think in my opinion the the knockout stages and etc should be played in a neutral venue like eg. one country host the toroment.


back to tactics. what players do you like to play more if you were a coach.

either strong attackers that are slow or fast attackers that weak.

fast attackers that are strong, like Rooney or Tevez or back in the day Diego Armando Maradona

If I was a coach, I'd pair them.

I prefer slow, technical players.
