Originally posted by germcevoy:I'm not bitter. United had multiple scoring opportunities late on and didn't convert. They lost their heads after the card and switched off. The Modric goal was a great strike but to concede the second so quickly was criminal. Nano would never have been covering the back post so it made no odds that he wasn't on the pitch. Only ourselves to blame.
And Welbeck is a lemon. He just has no killer instinct. Gets himself into fantastic space but put him in front of goal and he looks like a giraffe on an ice rink.
Edit - full disclosure. Had a fiver on Welbeck for first goal at 7/1 and another fiver on united to go through in extra time at 25/1.
They panicked. It was obvious that Madrid would push on and changes would need to be made. Immediately, Valencia should've replaced Welbeck and Giggs shoudl've switched to the left. But Mourinho's cool head decided to bring Modric on and take advantage. Ferguson was outraged and he didn't act until it was too late. As you say though, we had chances and didn't take them. Credit to Lopez for the fantastic save he made against Vidic.
, is that right ? 
.. and we desperetely need him in form
