    Just wow, can honestly say that this Barcelona team are the best team I have ever seen and IMO Messi is the greatest player ever full stop.

    well done barca. they were great and apart from the first 10 minutes or so we couldn't get near them which i expected tbh. it was vital that we didn't concede the first goal and once that happened barca were always in control. some of their football was breathtaking and thankfully all the rather unpleasant stuff we saw in the semi wasn't on show tonight

    overall, i'm pleased with the season since we won a record 19th title and are the best team in england and the 2nd best in europe which is probably all that can be expected with the current barca team

    Top quality team.

    You would be proud to be a Barcelona fan, particularly when they got Abidal to accept the cup.

    I'm not picky.
    What match was HE playing in?? :97:

    Apart from the from first 10 mins, Barcelona completely dominated the match and Man Utd. They controlled the midfield and the 3 goals that they scored were simply sublime.

    Great touch letting Abidal lift the trophy, why did they cut the net up :56:?
