Oh, and some stats for people who like that thing.
Barcelona – 2 finals in 4 years and 4 consecutive semi-finals.
Man United – 3 finals in 4 years and 4 semi-finals in 5 years. (Should’ve been 5 in 5 and 4 in 4 mind you)
Mind explaining why?

I think it'll be Park as well. I'm gutted for Nani as he has had an amazing season, however Park is just phenomenal in big games, and we'll need his work rate to contain Barca's midfield.

I expect a fantastic game. But I don't see any team who is able to beat Barca now and in the next 2 years.

Van der Sar will stop Messi's deciding penalty! Calling it now!

He was given a knighthood which is the most prestigious award/title a British person can receive so he should be addressed as "Sir"

United lost the first leg in Germany 2-1, then outscored Bayern 3-1 in a pretty one-sided first half at OT. In the second half Rafael picked up a second yellow very early and was sent off, which completely changed the match and allowed Bayern to control possession. They picked up the tying (4-4 agg) goal and won on the away goals rule.
Personally I don't think the better team won, SAF made a rare error by keeping Rafael in the game for the second half when the team had taken the lead and were controlling play. That decision probably cost United victory, but decisions are a part of the game. So while it's not like there was a bad referee decision or something that was "unjust," I can see where BlazingInferno is coming from.

Bayern got revenge for the 1999 Final. United had the tie in the bag at 3-0 but Carrick made an uncharacteristic mistake right on the half time whistle which made it 3-1. Rafael got sent off for a petulant foul and the rest as they say is history.
Sir Alex was given knighthood for services to football and he is a man commanding of respect. I would give him the title even if I weren't a die-hard United fan. That title should get the respect it deserves. Glad the first post got changed.

Yea well I watched both games but I thought you were thinking the referee made mistakes or something because saying "They should have won if Bayern hadn't scored" is kind of a weird statement.

Lol, unbelievable the amount of glory supporters rooting for manchester... personally I hope barcelona wins only because I hate United so much.. But am I the only one who found it very very appaling how much the " best team in the world " dived against Real. Seriously when Pepe got sent off for something worthy of a yellow card I just laughed my ass of at how pathetic Dani Alves is, along with the rest of barca's squad =/

The word should've makes it sound like you were robbed or something and got knocked out unfairly.

No disrespect meant to Bayern of course. I was just surprised at how much United capitulated after we went down to 10-men. Robben scored a fantastic strike too. Still, I feel United threw that game away from a comfortable position where we should've gotten through really.

The finals were pretty boring imo because I found them to be onesided - I hope it will be closer this time.
Playing well against Xavi/Iniesta/Messi in topshape is pretty much impossible, tho.

It's not impossible. GO Red Devils!
