Man Utd in Europe

Away to Juventus, they played magnificently, yet domestically, they can't seem to hit the same high standards. Is it because domestic teams have figured out how to play against them? or is it because the players are more motivated to play in the Champions League?

And why doesn't Fergie go for another striker to play alongside Rudd? Ok there's Ole, but look at Arsenal with Henry, Jeffers, Bergkamp, Kanu and Wiltord?

Nobody gives a **** what you say tbph.

Forlan is back from injury now so that gives UTD another option upfront. Despite what people might say about Forlan from his first few games in the Premiership i think he has turned himself ruond into a decent player now.

I would expect Fergie to bring in another top class striker over the summer. There is a lot of speculation that it will be in some kind of part exchange with Inter for Giggs, meaning Man U get the Brazilian striker Adriano (think i've recalled the right name there, i could be wrong though), who is currently part owned by Inter and should be fully bought by them for £8 million in the summer.

Edit: Maybe Ronaldinho as well seeing as the PSG fans hate him!!!

For any other team that's a success, for us...

If Manchester United don't win anything, it will be the first time they haven't won anything 2 seasons in succession for 15 years.
