I think it shows your spoilt. Players can cry over a result, that's fine, since they're the ones putting the work in to acheive.. but a fan? It's like, you've just made an FA Cup SF and you're crying because you lost? Be greatful you've even got to such a place and been to Wembley, fans of most teams nevet get that chace. That is how you're being spoilt. Look at fans of West Brom, Cardiff or Millwall in recent years, all teams that made FA Cup SFs/Finals and they didn't cry when they lost, they were proud of their team. Then again, it's ecoming tough to call Arsenal fans spoled of late.

And I agree with your last point.


I'd hope so, or he was one very sad person!

My bad. I'll blame it on watching football at the same time, so I wasn't concentrating. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/blush.gif)

I get what you're saying I just don't agree with one thing, I don't believe crying means one is not grateful. I know I was grateful for what my team had achieved whenever I've cried.

Barca-ManUtd. hmh. First time a team makes 2 straight finals. Impressive Ferguson stuff indeed. Naturally, I hope Barca lifts the trophy!

Milan, Valencia and Juve have all made it to 2 finals in a row, unless I'm very much mistaken...

No, I meant new format, and CL winners. In the new format, every CL winner was eliminated in 1/8 or 1/4 finals.

Although United will be the first to win it twice.

If they pull if off it's going to be the most amazing achievement I've watched in football.

They are a team built on debt but still... winning the CL twice in a row while also grabbing the championship in today's football seems impossible. And the silly CWC makes it all the more difficult because it forces the team to play a very compact schedule. Just check the 3 previous CL winners, 'fool, Barcelona and Milan were all eliminated in the round of 16 the year after they won the CL!

Sacchi is the last coach to win back-to-back European Cups but he did not win the championship in those two seasons.

Even if they lose, it would not change much in my mind I still consider it an unbelievable accomplishment.

Although I want (/hope) Barca to win it, I agree 100%. I never thought they would go this far this season, neither in the CL nor the EPL. they might have had lost a bit of motivation after winning everything there is to win (except the Supercup) but they were strong enough to make it another CL final and an EPL title. Barca and Man U are both equally the dream teams of this season.

I really want Barca to win this one , but it will be very tough as United are no passovers , they will surely put up a fight , although I think Barca are the better team out of the two .

Will be a good game to watch as both teams are technically well-sounded and have pack of match-winners as well , certainly a game that neutrals will enjoy 9 nothing comes close to a Milan match B) ) .

It will important for Messi to step-up in this match as he's been less influential recently ( against Chelsea ) , also a lot will depend on whether Iniesta plays or not ( seems injured ) .

I hope Barca win . :huh:
