Sir Alex Ferguson :: has a chance to turn the tables on Barcelona UCL

Sir Alex Ferguson was a portrait of the joy of driving a much changed Manchester United FC's Champions League final for the fourth time - the club's third in four seasons and the pride of the fifth Champions Cup 'in total - with a emphatic victory against FC Schalke 04.However, United manager can not wait to meet Sunday summit of the Premier League with Chelsea FC, and also that the final against Barcelona, ​​United, contrary to atone for the year 2009 against the Catalans. Ralf Rangnick Schalke gave his team had to come soon, although it was their pride in a memorable campaign - before and a German Cup final again.
Sometimes it is necessary to classify the confidence of the players was not an easy decision this evening, I with him for a few days, but the result Arsenal forced the situation. It 'was the emotional exhaustion on Sunday, and can make the European games that to you.So I had to make the decision. If it was a tight game, there was no way I could make nine changes, but with a two-goal lead, there was not enough space. Now we have a new team on Sunday and go for it.
We have been favored [FC Barcelona] recently. Perhaps we can learn a bit 'but most of them are high in relation to the development of the two teams after the last game. But we have had the experience in terms of away form in Europe has shown, and is shown in the form of Barcelona last year and this year has been absolutely brilliant. It should be a really good ending.
I do not think we should be there would not have the confidence, the shape of Barcelona in Europe has been very good this season, played a great team, but we can not by our skin, for fear. Their shape is there for all to see, our task is to provide a solution be found to play against them. A final at Wembley Stadium, the degrees in history and traditions represented both teams. Of course, it would be a good game.

Congratulations to United. It 'was a deserved victory in both games were the best team. For the first 20 minutes the game tonight, we played better in the first leg, although we did not create many chances. We certainly had more possession at this time, but when we went behind her a very difficult task we faced.
If you look at the so-called second XI U.S. today is the quality of players - players like [Dimitar] Berbatov, Anderson and the two central defenders did well. This demonstrates their extraordinary height, I think it would be more teams in the league are happy, that kind of quality in their squad to have. In the other semi-final between Real Madrid and Barcelona, ​​we have seen, the quality as well. We could maybe have gone in earlier rounds, but a prominent figure in the two legs against Inter, we meet this evening our game.
We have two league games, and we will be looking for positive results in these, and then there's the Cup final. We hope to be ready and then the form that we have recently demonstrated. We had three very difficult game, again against Manchester United and Bayern Monaco, but then we have to be on track for the cup final.
It 'hard to predict [the final] because it's a game, but you've seen the quality of Barcelona, ​​they have really set the standard for European football set in the moment. But on the other hand, the last at Wembley Stadium, so it is perhaps a slight advantage for United there. I'm curious to see how it will end.

Barca vs Man u in UCL Again

FC Barcelona and Manchester United FC will descend on Wembley Stadium, London on Saturday 28 May  

FINAL UCL !!!   MANCHESTER UNITED VS FC BARCELONA WHO IS CHAMPION !!.

::Doing it tough:;

You do not really expect, United won the title in the easiest, right?

Moreover, the nerves connected to actual abuse during the next week. After all, the UnitedWay.

But remember that an ideal location in. When the Reds took the field in Toronto, the UnitedStates on July 16 last year for the first preseason game, no one expects the team to victoryis difficult. In fact, if someone said I had to come, can the Reds would be three points clearin the Premier League with three games to the end and on the eve of a place in theChampions League final would be just crazy. Sir Alex has his magic again in a teamseemed determined to erase all worked.

Now, back to the issues involved. It seems that many people talk about Chelsea take firstplace this Sunday at Old Trafford. But I remember as a victory for America in the main package the title with two games to spare. And Old Trafford was a fortress this season: 49points from 51 possible tells its own story.

It was time United were in the UAE in Sunday's win and Arsenal on their part. But it mustfeel like a very empty victory for all in relation to the Gunners. This is a case of "This is what we could have won", to paraphrase Jim Bowen Bullseye.

I'm not sure Arsenal have a better chance when he had to win the title this year. City,Chelsea, Liverpool and United are probably the best season for the teams and thecompetition of the day, encoreore

UNITED 4 - 1 Schalke

Report: United 4 1 SchalkeUnited turned on the style at all sure of a Champions League place in 2011, fired four goals past Schalke in a thrilling semi-final at Old Trafford.
Antonio Valencia and Darron Gibson put the Reds well and truly in the driver's seat with two first half and although Jurado pulled a goal back for Schalke beautiful, even before the break, Sir Alex Ferguson was double-runner to win comfortably thanks to the second suspended in mid-clip Anderson.
For some that would be misleading to South America or any of the triumphant United star, but - and this was another great team performance with fourteen players to contribute to the cause and perhaps have their manager selection dilemmas in the most exciting days and weeks.
Sir Alex Ferguson has remained true to his word and changes - eight, in fact, who slipped to the side Arsenal. Only Edwin van der Sar, Anderson and Nani have been asked to start over, as the head of one side led on Sunday against Chelsea at the top.Wayne Rooney reported that a hamstring close on Tuesday, had a total of eighteen, but now his regular strike partner Javier Hernandez was named among a strong group of substitutes.
There was a slow start to the game, the whole atmosphere as electric as it was staged for the last semi-final stage
Old Trafford - against FC Barcelona in 2008. The circumstances here were very different, of course, could have had with the cushion of two goals away dulling all limits in this competition.
Just some flash in the number of other 17 gave the audience a bit 'too excited in the opening 10 minutes - to impose some control Nani very close to two players and Schalke win a corner, then Jefferson Farfan fired the first shot of note cm in width, as Van der Sar dived right to control its flight.
Farfan is right to start Darron Gibson has also caused some discomfort in his stomach when crunch in the international challenge of the Peruvian. When play resumed, with Gibson, fortunately, not required, participants in the stretcher, Berbatov was in danger of his party-piece of the season with West Ham last recap of a drag-back near the source of the left. Only the supervision of Manuel Neuer, Germany's nemesis the first half of the first leg in Germany, has prevented the ball down Bulgarian locate Antonio Valencia.
There was no such intervention if it was from back in 26 minutes he got. Japanese right-back Atsuta Uchida lost possession as Schalke tried to push forward and was immediately punished as Gibson received the ball from Anderson and delivered the perfect pass adjusts Chronograph Valencia. The Ecuadorian just broke stride as he slid the ball under new U.S. third goal of the tie, and his third first-strike season.
The scorer and provider roles reversed as the Reds quickly doubled the advantage at night. Anderson was once again their accomplices received a throw in and turned on the feet in area.A touch of Valencia head the ball to Gibson, who hit the first power of the new bone and the right post. The seemingly superhuman goalies last week was very common to read.
United now 4-0 overall victory - and cruise? We thought so until a moment later, when Schalke has a goal back in spectacular fashion. Smalling attempt to play, that was cut down from behind and when Uchida careered off the right side of the pack by Evans, Rafael, Raul, Jose Manuel Jurado hammered the ball past van der Sar with his left foot poisonous.
The Old Trafford crowd, which is now illuminated by a couple of red flares in the Schalke, had a goal and three experts assault was almost four years when costs Valencia line was cleared by central defender Benedikt Howedes wrought with New.
While on the German side still a major challenge in terms of equality of votes, who had at least a handful of it in the evening.But while some Schalke kicks and lots of bookings for Anderson, Scholes and Gibson threatened to go to United loosen its grip on the game, the Reds were worthy 2-1 lead at the break.
Schalke sent to replace the first paragraph to restart midfielder Alexander Baumjohann with Brazilian striker Edu. But it was a compatriot Edu in red, which added up to nearly scored when Anderson was the irrepressible Berbatov Teed. number eight U.S. would certainly past, most pet owners with his curling left-footer but new facts, you are suddenly back at his best, he flew to his left and snapped the shot with his hand Broad Peak, his right.
With an hour longer, and the 4-1 lead is no obvious threat, the United fans serenade their heroes of the past - Andy Cole, Nicky Butt and others - and the present, and began to sing at Wembley. The register was broken only by the roar of a long-term objective Anderson - Hidden new low after a great run to the left and cut-back by Nani - and best wishes for Patrice Evra and Darren Fletcher, when she came to entertainment in place of Rafael and Paul Scholes.
Then came another blow for Anderson - U.S. fourth goal of the night, the sixth of the total demand - if Valencia broke down the right, fed Rooney and the Bulgarian - in its last action before the road with Michael Owen - he pushed the ball to the Brazilianfor the first time at the end of the post.
There was still time for excellent savings on both ends - New deny Owen and van der Sar Edu frustration with the substitute Klaas-Jan Huntelaar characterized bang offside position for the rebound - but it would be almost as many goals as a rich amount of embarrassment already enjoyed a Saturday-night
