    Liverpool and Stuttgart also then Porto in the final. The Liverpool team we knocked out won the CL 2 years later and Porto won the CL the following season.

    You definitely won't be alone but I can't handle this lot down here banging on about United being back and that smug * Mourinho getting out of jail. 5 team's in the Champions League as well when a lot of us want their coefficients to fall overall..

    Can't stand Ajax but I'll be rooting for them. These lot probably think it's already done..

    Conveniently. Liverpool were majorly strong . Stuttgart with Hleb and Kuranyi. Celta were much stronger than this current one..

    We also didn't spend about 300 odd million to scrape by each round either..

    If they win the Europa League they are on an upward curve.

    As long as Mourinho signs Mourinho players and not the likes of Pogba.

    Even the Blackburn team was a very good team, Friedel and Lucas Neilll, David Thompson, David Dunn and Damien Duff, Yorke and Cole up front. Before our first leg against them they won at Highbury with 10 men, they also beat Arsenal at home, Man U at home, Chelsea away and drew with Liverpool home and away that season in the League.

    Don't particularly like them but I'd prefer Man U to win it, over Ajax.

    Id prefer Ajax to win it, a wee team like ourselves who its a big achievement for reaching the final. They've not really done anything in Europe for 20 year so for many of their fans this is the best they've seen and their Seville.

    To Man U their fans are probably embarrassed to be in it, spending half a Billion to scrape their way there and possibly end up 6th in their League.

    Genuinely hate both sides.

    But if you held a gun to my heid I'd rather the underdog, which is, unfortunately on this occasion, Ajax.

    They also play better football. Man United are * murder to watch. Genuinely.

    * Ajax and * Man Utd as well. Their fans don't exactly love us either. I'm sure they were up here giving it FTP and the rest. *.
