Man, I am really excited to see MU vs RM

Celtic were poor tactically and clumsy in defence, they played into juve's hands. They expected juve to boss possession and then play on the counter but juve just allowed them have the ball and didnt use their usual pressing game by sitting behind the ball. All celtic had was long range shots and poor crosses. Credit to them for trying, but they should have tried to play on the counter against juve, thats their weakness.

I don't think celtic were poor tactically. They wanted to press juve and made them have no possesion. The only problem when you do that you HAVE to score because in the end of the game you will be very tired

not sure if troll or just stupid

Think before you dribble.

[edetarod 2,155]

i think manure will be clinical on the counter, 1-2

[bushman 2,043]

What else is left for Manure but to wait for Real´s avalanche.

Hopefully, Real to score early & then pop 2-3 more goals.

Think before you dribble.

So if people disagree with you, you consider it as mere dribble? Hooray, that's a decent foundation to establish a civilized debate.

No, I do not. I respect all opinions. Of course apart from ill-founded postings.

By the way, let´s stick to the games at hand.

They should have allowed juve to come out into their half before pressing them, so that they can have most of the juve players in their half for a more spacious counter. Juve sat deep meaning they had no chance of getting a one on one with the keeper unless they have better attackers. Thats why there was a lot of crosses and long shots, they just reminded me of how we played against swansea in the capital one cup.

Shame Celtic lost yesterday... but oh well.

Now today i hope United thrash Real Madrid.

[Rmpr 8,977]

What happens to Ibra in the knock-out stages of UCL?

He has 28 appereances and only 4 goals, he also has 3 red cards...

[Santiago. 1,500]

I fully expect Real Madrid to win 2-0.

[bushman 2,043]

I even would like to see Real winning by 3 goals. Who could like Manure team to win ?

[Jase 43,479]

Watched the Celtic v Juventus game earlier. Have to say Celtic were quite average. Attacking wise, it was just cross after cross after cross. Perhaps better quality would have probably made the difference for them but there was hardly any craft/invention that comes from elsewhere. Made it predictable and easy for Juventus to defend.

[bushman 2,043]

Celtics as a team are not in the same class as Juve.

Perhaps, if they were playing on the counter something could have come out of the game for them.

Speaking about attack, looking forward to see the Real Madrid one.

[Hutcho 8,443]

Should be a good game tonight. On one hand i would like manure to get stuffed for obvious reasons, but then on the other hand i want jose to get fired which would be aided by them getting beaten... Probably end up rooting for the first one.

[dave30 728]

I'd back whoever wins this tie to win the whole thing.

[Milan 17,859]

I guess Shakhtar v Dortmund will be more entertaining but the game in Madrid really attracts attention. Looking forward to it myself.
