YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

LOL MAN U

[Liam]

Makes me laugh more because of Ferguson's walking out of a conference a couple of weeks back when someone mentioned that the Manchester sides were struggling.....well, you didn't even qualify in the end.

[Starvinho]

Not quite sure how we lost that but fair play Basel. Europa League it is...

[METALMAN]

MANCHESTER DOUBLE KNOCKOUT!!!!!!!! YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!!!

[stokeriño]

Possible opponents for Arsenal and Chelsea:

Napoli

CSKA Moscow

Basel

Lyon

Bayer Leverkusen/Marseille (delete as appropriate)

Zenit St Petersburg

AC Milan

I'd take any of them really. But I think Zenit would be most interesting.

YES! Easy group for us

I'm happy with Benfica, one of the 'easier' teams out of Pot 2.

Let's see in a few weeks.

What a surprise Man.Utd get a relatively easy group in the Champions League.....

Yes, since the two best qualify they have a good chance.

I'm happy with Benfica, one of the 'easier' teams out of Pot 2.

Let's see in a few weeks.

I meant easy in the sense of location and Benfica being the lesser of the other evils in Pot 2. Shakthar would have been the best draw for us but Benfica was a close second, this way we avoided Italian (hostile crowds), Spanish (high quality teams) , French (bad record) and Russian (long and cold away days) teams.

But I still think we'll beat Benfica easy though.

It wouldn't surprise me, but to be honest, after we beat you in 2005 and put you out of the Champions League, with an awful team and coach on our side, I can believe in everything.

Hate to say, I told you so... Oh fuck it, I love to say I told you so.

Anyone know if Zagreb put any players on the field for the second half?

EDIT: They were there but it looked dodgy...

You know it's bad when supporters of a team that cant even make it into Europe are taking the piss out of us

Gutted, but only got ourselves to blame. We should of been topping this group yet threw away leads time and time again earlier in the campaign and it's come back to haunt us. Hopefully this is a wake up call and also some top experience for some of the younger guys like Jones and Smalling for the future.

[Cheeky Hughes]

I loved the chant from City fans towards the end...

"We'll be here, we'll be here, we'll be here on Thursday nights!"

I look forward to the European Carling Cup. I really do.

[King Ellis]

Waiting on a United fan to pull a Dukes now.

[Jimmy]

Well, at least this will lead to more game time for Michael Owen.

Bad times. Look at it like this, you may be able to get one closer to us in Uefa Cup/Europa League wins now I'm sure that will motivate Fergie quite abit.

Waiting on a United fan to pull a Dukes now.
