You wouldnt want to beat them in the final ?
Ok so silver lining so
Hopefully that little prick is out injured for our trip there.
He always plays well against us.

Not debating that but that was an awful miss!!
Based on this evidence no fear of Utd winning the CL even with Sanchez
I don't want to see them remotely near a CL final. I actually would prefer they didn't make CL at all....
I really like what you have said. I also don't want to face them as their jammyness has no bounds it seems and they could beat us if we meet them on our way to the CL final this year, its just so wrong. I wanted Seville to do them bad tonight but I think they will find them as tricky as themselves at home. Have to say that Seville impress me the way they keep the ball and move it around - reminds me of Spurs currently. I hope we don't have to face them again though.
MORON
Pundits all seem to assume that United will play a totally different game at Old Trafford and are almost praising Mourinho for a “pragmatic away performance.” All I saw was a weak and disjointed United team that was utterly dominated by Sevilla and would have deservedly lost if not for the brilliance of their world-class keeper. This was not a defensive masterclass; the only good thing you can say about United is that they didn’t completely disintegrate and lose shape under some serious pressure. But they were riding their luck at times in defense and couldn’t generate any threat on the counter, which the best Mourinho teams were always able to do. I’m not so sure as the pundits that they will be able to flip the switch to suddenly produce a dominant attacking performance at home.
Sure, United can still win at Old Trafford and go through in the return leg, but now Sevilla only need a score draw to progress. Based on what I saw I would say the chances are about even, maybe 51 to 49 in favor of Sevilla.

51 to 49. Ha. That’s worse than Ryan’s 1% bollocks.
Credit to the special one. Hopefully he can go to New heights and copy our 2-2 at home.
If that happens I hope Montella copies his infamous run down the touchline (from when Porto beat United, I think).
Yes, it was. The LFC job was vacant not long afterwards and Mourinho was known to be interested, but the scuttlebutt among my Liverpudlian mates was that - despite the fact that ManUre were the victims - his antics that night were a factor in the board turning him down in favour of Rafa.
Yes I'd love to beat them in the final if that happened, but I don't want to play them in the final. I don't want to see them in the final, I don't want to see them in the next round, I want those inbred cunts beaten every time they go on the pitch!
The idea of a Liverpool - United champions league final actually sickens me. The fear of losing would outweigh all the potential joy of winning. It would be awful.
It came so close to happening in 2007. We're just lucky Milan won the semi final.
I thought Sevilla suspect in defence and showed absolutely abysmal finishing and composure in the area (esp. that greedy fecker Muriel) but should still have won by a couple - didn't their mothers ever teach them 'head the ball down' ! However their midfield was quite superb, brilliant technical skills, lovely short fast interplay and constantly switching play and stretching United all over the pitch. It got worse for United when the 'best midfielder in the world' came on, they were totally overrun then.
United were trash as the stats show Sevilla (25-8) United 6 (1) and Sevilla definitely deserved far more than a draw. However Sevilla were shite at both ends whereas United created virtually nothing all game. If they continue in that vein at OT there is every chance they'll eventually find the net. But United will score too as Sevilla's defence is just very very small and I can see Lukaku / Jones / Pogba winning a few headers in the box.
Bonega was superb against United last night; technically brilliant, tough, good tackler and totally set the pace for the midfield controlling the game, maybe he would look great alongside Keita (though we'd have the smallest midfield in the league).
