Sir Alex in fine form

**Numeric** · 09-05-2007, 12:31 PM

Sir has spoken...

"I'd bet for sure that Milan will win the Champions League. I'm absolutely certain of it," he told The Sun. "I told their manager Carlo Ancelotti at the end of our semi-final that there is no way he cannot win it now."

Sir even plans to drink to Milan's success in two weeks' time.

"Carlo gave me a magnificent bottle of wine. But I immediately told him there is no point in giving such a wonderful gift if he then fails in the final.

"In fact, I told him I would only drink his wine once I see him lifting the Champions League Cup."

:cheese:

We'll see. Heard all this before 2 years ago.

**Insomnia** · 09-05-2007, 12:54 PM

Not surprising coming from Sir Alex........

He likes to wind the Pool up for sure!! :ohdear:

**Esox Lucius** · 09-05-2007, 12:55 PM

got to agree with traxx, to be honest i think ac will win it, but you never know with liverpool. half time 2 years ago we thought they were dead & buried, anything can happen on the night.

**Numeric** · 09-05-2007, 12:59 PM

true anything can happen, but there's no chance any of the Milan players will lose concentration this time, if Liverpool go a couple of goals behind there's no way Milan will allow them back into it like last time...

Aye yer, funny i thought he would of been banging on about how good winning the premier league was. As this was more important to him...

3 days down the line and he's talking about the champs league...

Your not bitter are you Alex...?

Of course hes gonna be bitter after all, what will his 2007 Champs League been remembered for?

The 7-1 against roma?

Nah the 3-0 hammering and how bad they played against milan in semi's.

Thats the way football works...

And Numeric states Milan chucked away an adavantage in the 05 final...?

Pot, Kettle, Black.

this years Champions League campaign will always be over-shadowed by the fact that we won the Premiership, the European run was a bonus, we will remember it as the year that we missed out on the chance to t**t Liverpool in the final, because we were beaten by a rampant and full deserving Milan team, who we then got to enjoy watching t**t Liverpool in the final...

You cant be for real?? :briggin:

The bad thing is, he means it. Clueless cunt, like the rest of his kind.

**Numeric** · 09-05-2007, 06:31 PM

what part are you havin trouble with? the fact that United fans will remember this season for us winning the title, rather than the fact that we nearly got to the Champions League final, that's a bit of a no brainer one would have thought...

or is it that United would have beaten Liverpool in the final had we made it? considering Liverpools recent record vs United (two goals in three years), i think it's fair to assume we would have d**ked you quite royaly...

or perhaps you think that Liverpool may actualy win in Athens vs Milan? you're havin a laugh...

**Richierush** · 09-05-2007, 06:51 PM

no liverpool fan round here wanted united,must have thought they had more chance against milan,personally there aint gona be no comebacks this year milan want revenge an i got a feelin comfortable revenge :cheese:
know'in The stuffie reds though i dunno :whoops:

an that was never the greatest come back Tranmere v southamton in fa cup was,tranmere 3-0 down,at full time tranmere won 4-3 didnt need no penaltes to win the match
