Manchester United welcome Bayern Munich to Old Trafford this evening for the first leg of their Champions League quarter final clash.

To be honest………..there is no one in there to make the team tick> if I am wrond and bayern have a disgutingly bad day……………..then I see bayern putting 5 goals past this lot
Again kagawa is dropped ………….he is the only one that can gel the team………unselfishly…..and the skill to break bayern……….Moyes has to go………….he is an average mind average soccer skill……….but they say he is a nice guy. And United board are going to give him money!? how much? so wrong to buy way out ……….average manager average back room team…average board…..average owners I am dissapointed…..again

Kagawa not picked again………….either Moyese is a racist, stupid or?…….I just after 50 years of supporting United dont get this picture at all
If you dont sack Moyes quickly…………..going to support another team until Moyes is gone…………….10 – 0 to Bayern ia a distinct possibility………
