Benfica score!

Oscar Cardozo! Good news for us – if United have to chase a CL game they’ll be in worse shape for this weekend

Benfica bossing this shit

See, it can be done!

United won’t always convert like 60% of their chances, either.

Benfica wastes a glorious counter after Giggs loses the ball

I love how flabbergasted the announcers are that United isn’t up by 4 already.

In more ways than one.

Damn, that was a nice goal...

….thank God he won’t be playing Sunday (considering that goal today and the way he played against Chelsea last time).

this game has already exposed

United! The defence has been shaky and the midfield are unable to dictate play! The teams United have faced this season have all undone their trowsers, pulled down their pants, bent over, lubed United up and were waiting to get bum-raped (bar West Brom)!!! I feel like Mata will have a field day on Sunday!

Inter actually matters

Man City might matter- this is their first shot. They could have used a win.

Man U doesn’t matter. A draw away from home against the second team in the group? That’s more than they needed. They’ll beat the other two at home, Oeueueutuiiil (sp?) away, pull a draw at least at Basel, and that’s 10 points. The Benfica result at Old Trafford won’t matter.

Group stage only counts for the teams figting to get a Europa League spot…

Man City probably matters a lot

Napoli could win all of their matches at the Sao Paolo, and failing to win at Etihad could mean City end up third in that group rather than second

by Graham MacAree on Sep 14, 2011 9:48 PM BST up reply actions  

Third would be AMAZING

Think about the opportunities for Schadenfreude!

Their fans are title starved, so they HAVE to take the Europa cup seriously if they end up in it. But it isn’t the Champions League, and it will continue to tire them out in their campaign to win the league.

Plus, as far as strength of competition they are more likely to last longer in the Europa League, making the end of year run-in that much worse. This could be the start of something really, really fun.

Ok, I just watched the first half of the City-Napoli game

City are good, but they sure aren’t the fearsome machine that the press is making them out to be.

This is a three horse race for the league, at least. It’s going to be an interesting year.
