Please dont be silly saying Carrick is a joke, the man has won 3 league titles and a Champions league in the last 4 seasons and you dont do that if your a joke, he plays central midfield for the best team on the plannet at present, never mind that they got beat by Barca they are still the best team wether we like it or not. Daniel Alvez is a modern day full back in that he attacks better than he can defend so dont give me this rubbish about he cant defend according to your logic Cafu and Roberto Carlos were rubbish as well because they were better going forward than defending as well. I told you before Steven Gerarrd can get away with playing up front most games but he is no forward, if I asked you to name all his strenghths they would all be qualities a midfielder has tackling, passing, driving forward and scoring goals from outside the box, Gerarrd and Torres are fantastic players but both have not achieved enough in the game to warrant the world class tag am afraid.

Listen there are things in life you have to accept wether you like it or not and United are the best team and there's nothing we can do about it. I base that on the english league is superior to the Spanish one and United are comfortably the best team in this country, dont want to take anything away from Barcelona because they thouroughly deserved to beat United on the night but you have to take into consideration the season both clubs had and which team had the more demanding fixtured leading up to that match. I cant stand United but have to hold my hands up and say they came within a whisker of winning every single competition they entered last season World Championship, League Cup, F.A.Cup, Premier league and Champions league just felt the Barcelona match was a bridge to far and they looked jaded. Thats why it makes me laugh when you claim Carrick is not a good player how can you possibly win the trophies he has, play in as many games as he does and be similar to Alonso in that he is United most important player because he makes them tick and not have something about you, do you serious think he could pull the wool over Fergies eyes if he was'nt good enough taking into consideration Fergie has seen off players like Ince, Beckham, Keane, Kanchelskis and Hughes for various reasons so he is a tough man to please.

Just told you the Barca game was a game to far after the season United had, thats why players you expect more of look jaded that night, yes Carrick was poor on the night but so to was Rooney and Ferdinand who also looked out of sorts so you see he was'nt the only one. If Barca played United 10 times United would win prob 6 of them Barca 3 and 1 would be a draw, the Premier League is now far superior to that of the Spanish league, you only had to see how poor Madrid where when we played them to see just how far the Spanish league has dropped and Madrid are the second best team behind Barca, the english league had three teams in the semi's and guess what they will probably have three again next season. Carrick is a good player and as i said although not as spectacular as Ronaldo or Rooney he is United's most important player and has been one of the main reasons United have won the previous 3 league titles and made United the best team on the plannet at the moment.

you are always going to look good against a team that looked on it's last legs, you only had to look at Puyol he's a crab but United made him look like Franco Beresi and Barca never even had a defence out yet United were still to tired to exploit them, Rooney looked like a pub player that night and even Ronaldo looked ordinary, as i say it was one game to many for United and it caught up with them, you cant do what they done all season and not feel the effects.

I didn´t see that game but all of the united fans i talked to after the game all mentioned that they where just out played
like Fergie said also ... they were just better in all aspects of the game ..

and even if the English league is better than the spanish it doesn´t mean that the spanish champions can´t be better than the english
