I am hoping for an open attacking game. Although i know this is likely not too happen. I seriously hope that the final isnt boring. Two teams from the same country always proves to be a slow defensive game.

So lets hope for maybe an early goal to liven things up.

I agree.

Without sounding like too much of a jinx I would even take a really early Chelsea goal to wake us up and to prevent a repeat of last year's FA Cup ridiculousness.

We must not get an early goal and then sit back and try to defend it for 90 mins like we did against Barca...

I don't think United will play a crap, defensive game.

I don't know man. Our tactics have been pretty strange of late, with a lot of mindless defensive play.

At least for this game we can be certain Fergie will play our best team and start with the 4-4-2 formation that really suits us best.

Need to play a lot better than the Wigan game though.
 
If Drogba is on form (like against liverpool) I think we in for a good game.
Same way benitez pissed him off against liverpool with his comments, it seems rooney is doing the same today:

Manchester United forward Wayne Rooney has taken a swipe at Chelsea striker Didier Drogba's temperament ahead of the Champions League final.

"Sometimes he seems as if his head's not quite there," Rooney said.

I think Fergie wants the ultimate revenge - thrash Chelsea in the UEFA CL Final. Based on that, I think we will go all out attacking.
 
Woooooop Wooooooop

I hope Drogba takes what Rooney says and plays the same way he did against Liverpool. Benetiz must have regretted saying those things about Drogba, cos he was on a mission to destroy Liverpool.

You make it sound so easy. Too many factors are involved to just flip a switch and start attacking.

i hope they egg him on to perform and not to go down like a little school boy the whole time

the only difference between ronaldo and drogba is ronaldo has always done it, drogba has learned to go down easily

drogba is big and powerful and looks like an idiot when he goes down so easily because we all know he is big and powerful

he also plays better when he rides tackles

dont poke the beast i tell you but if it makes the game better than poke away

i dont think this game will be a repeat of the fa cup final, chelsea seem in last few months alot more attacking than under JM

I thought he showed some real promise to be honest.

Wonder who we will get as back up to replace him. Maybe Wes Brown? ;)

i thought he played really well. sad to see him go without showing us what he is really capable off. now im forced to watch hopeless barca a little more :D
 
Where do you think Pique came from?

Barca made Pique! Its only right he returns to the club that made him who he is today.
