I think I should apologise to you
@Daysleeper. I read your post assuming it came recently and assumed you were winding up United fans when in fact it was from the beginning of March. I reacted poorly, and I’m sorry. I was a little drunk after a great United game, which is no excuse! So there you go.
As for the debate going on, I wouldn’t feel confident meeting Barca even in next year’s CL. I do think it would be closer than last year though. Messi is still the best player in the world imo. The problem I think is the inability of the suits to build a balanced team. Messi could also become somewhat of an elephant in the room (yeah, that metaphor
) as he declines, who would have the backing and balls to drop him until it’s basically harm done, like Rooney for us. Will be interesting to see what happens.
