I know the media love him, and he does score the odd good goal but Rooney, for me, is not the superstar people make out. The amount of times he carelessly gives the ball away is shocking.

I prefer a striker like Torres to be honest.

Sorry for the unrelated post dude.

Your point Dell? For me Torres is a better option up front. I'll stick with that.

I knew he'd score as soon as I posted that btw!! Typical.

That Ronaldo is shit....

I totally agree Janaage, Torres is the complete centre forward, the best in Europe for me.
I just couldn't resist, I just knew as you said Rooney would score as soon as you made your post. :soapy tit wank:

Utd have been pretty fortunate here, Roma deserve a goal, for their second half showing. Not been a great match though eh?

That Ronaldo is a bit good.

Fantastic to see a player "like that" power a header into the net while clattering into a centre half.

They (United) did what was needed. Soaked up the pressure and damaged them on the counter.

Professional performance, United can be a bit of a damp squib away in Europe.

I hate this "love-in" the papers and tv have with Ronaldo-public enemy no1 in 2006-"we dont want cheats like that in our League","there's no way Rooney will play alongside him again"etc etc

I have to admit to liking Motson. Although he does seem to be getting gradually more eccentric. I used to like it when he had Trevor Brooking sat next to him. Always seemed like a nice combination that.

John Motson is the Sun's football section personified. A walking, talking tabloid if you like. Ok sometimes but goes off talking bollocks way too often

I laughed at that game. I enjoy the premiership, but have no "second team", but always support any Prem teams in Europe.

That game would've been puke for the Roma fans, they couldn't finish for toffee, dominated possession in large parts and lost 2-0.

Harsh, but funny to know how it feels when not caring about either team.

Romas final ball was woeful. The seemed to have done all the hard work but when it came to decent crosses/finishes basically hitting the target they just couldn't do it.

Anyway, back on topic, it annoys me the way the commentators have been saying, job done, pretty much through the semis etc. Its only 2 goals (away ones I'll give them that) however its not exactly a mountain to climb for a team like Roma.

Will Totti recover in time for the 2nd leg as I think he had a thigh injury? Not sure what the extent of the injury was.

Motson's a prick-he knows statistics but knows fuck all about football
