Dortmund outplayed them twice in the group stages, they can do it again.
Madrid are a counter attack team, they don't like (can't handle) being pressed all over the pitch.

So Gareth Bale was seen at the game.
Cue dramatic headlines in the morning of Bale going to United for £100million shocker behind Levy's back whilst fucking AVB in the ass, rather than he just attended a game.

Apparently it's for a party for Giggs''s 1000th game. Although I doubt he'll and celebrating much.

Arsenal and Chelsea players would do it too.
I'm not saying it was a definite red but it's not the miscarriage of justice Utd fans are portraying. They've definitely been given before. I'm sure we've had players sent off before for a high boot even when they get the ball.

No..I thought it was at the time..with replays maybe not, but it's the ref's opinion that counts.

Nani clearly thought a red was a distinct possibility seeing as he tried to feign an injury momentarily. Maybe he thought the ref would think "oh, he's hurt himself slightly there. I'll just forget about any sanction I was planning 2 seconds ago".
Sorry, but that was a terrible decision and I would argue it's not great for us.
People have to stop being so short-sighted. Just because Man U would've been playing CL doesn't mean they were going to let Arsenal and Chelsea off. Their squad depth is incredible. Their second team would school Arsenal.
As it stands the scum are sure to be eliminated leaving us with no teams in the CL. It may not affect us presently, but that does not mean this year will be irrelevant. Juventus and Milan are certainly through and because every other country except ours gives a shit about Europa that also counts for the coefficient.
Let's not be arrogant just because we're on the up and will get CL next year. Man Shitty and Chavski have the money to keep buying and we have to be able to compete year in, year out. With the upcoming stadium, it's not like we're going to be rolling in the cash either to compete on that front, not that we have been, but it could make things tighter still. If Arsenal get bought out or Liverpool then they're back in it as well. Plus, let's be honest here, City are still terrible in Europe. They're probably going to keep going out for the foreseeable future whereas look at Dortmund's rebound. Their foundations are not strong but they're still too good for most of the rest of our league.
We need those four places forever as it gives us room to manoeuvre. Take last year when the Chavs took our spot. Imagine if we were down to three and that happened. We'd need to finish second, of course, I hope we can challenge for the title in the future.
But that's not what people here think. Too much concern on fourth as a "cup". And we laugh at Wenger. Get rid of the small town mentality and look at the big picture.

The more it was replayed in slow motion the less like a red it looked, but when watching it at normal speed, I think it was.

Aw. Bless 'im. It's so unfair when decisions go against you, isn't it l'il Al? Of course, you know what that's like all the time, while we at THFC have never had to deal with that - HAVE WE YOU AUNT?"

Arsenal of old, maybe, but not the new breed. That's part of their problem, they are sly, but not nasty.
