Furgie is way better than pep. These pundits are delusional exception 1. ๐ฅฑ๐ฅฑ๐คท๐พโโ๏ธ
Barca fans in the comment section either was not born for MU 1999 or just delulu๐ฅฑ๐ฅฑ๐๐
Kids in the comments all saying Barcelona unsurprisingly since they weren't even born in 1999.๐ That phil lad obviously anti man utd biased, can't take his opinions seriously
Barcelona will easily win this match๐ฏ
GK – Victor Valdes
RB – Dani Alves
RCB – Japp Stam
LCB – Carlos Puyol
LB – Abidal
CDM – Sergio Busquets
CDM – Paul Scholes
RAM – Xavi Hernandez
LAM – Ryan Giggs
SS – Lionel Messi
CF – Samuel Eto
These guys haven't a clue. Barca would win yes but Denis Irwin was a better fullback than Abidal and Stam was definitely better than Pique.
2009 FCB was such a tactical watershed moment that this match up is like pitting WWI military against WWII counterpart. The only chance 99 Man. Utd. got chance is Peter Schmeichel had a perfect match.
If it isn't Barcelona bias, it'll be a Nostalgia(The older team) bias. That's all these sessions have been about ๐ข
The comments are made by youngsters, it's clear to see. Phil just dismissing Irwin over Abidal shows you all you need to know about his bias and lack of knowledge. Schmeichal, Stam, Irwin, Keane, and Giggs at the very least get into that Barca team. Also, most importantly, it's not individuals that win games it's great teams and this Man Utd was completely in sync; their team connection was superior. Also again the way Phil so easily dismisses Fergie over Pep again shows me all you need to know about that guy, very poor quality pundit. And Nico saying that Barca team is a reference point but not also acknowledging that this Man Utd team was also a reference point shows he didn't watch United then so how can he judge?? He even admitted not having watched them. His Latino background and age have biased him towards Barca and Pep. You need higher quality pundits that actually loved through both eras and who don't have biases. Oh and let's not forget they paying off referees!! Remember the Chelsea semi final??!! Embarrassing that people just forget that
It will be a solid 4-1 win to Barca EASY
Etoโo scored 36 goals in 2009 all without penalties. He was just two goals behind Messi. They shouldโve mentioned him more than Henry.
Messi vs Denis Irwin would definitely would have been a great match up but Gary Neville vs Thierry Henry ๐๐ Goodluck Gary.
I am being humble here but Messi cooked scholes , don't act like that thing didn't happen
2009 Barca – first team to won a sextuple
United would have 5% possession. It would be a massacre.
Barca easily๐๐๐
United? ๐ overrated team
Barcelona 2009 11 the best football team in history
Barcelona 2009 11 the best football team in history
It was Pedro who scored with his chest in the Club World Cup not Zltatam
Barcelona clear winner. What is Ferguson fake treble side doing here? There is history makers on one side and very lucky last minute winners on the other side. Manchester United was not better than PSG 2025 . Not even better than PSG 2011
Guardiola Barca cooks everyone.
They were better than any other Barca team in existence. They were better than anyone in their ''generation.'' If you were alive at that team and simply watched their matches week in and week out, you'd understand that there was no stopping them with the way they would basically walk the ball into the opponents goal. Passing between Busquets, Iniesta, Xavi and Messi was other worldly.
No team except real winning treble ucl in a row
THE DISRESPECT! If you wanted a manager to change things, it would be Fergie. Peps starting tactics are just too good
Barca 2009 and itโs not close. United wonโt see much of the ball and Roy Keane will be sent off
United get smashed, 07-09 united were better than the 99 team and they got smacked in 09
How is this even up for discussion. Barca 2009 without a doubt.
The 10 years of football evolution between 1999 and 2009 make it simply impossibly unrealistic for United to stand any chance. Same also applied to Barca 09 vs Bayern 20, but Barca 09 was too iconic for them to admit that.
They put treble in so Real Madrid left the chatโฆ
Barca vs Barca in the final.
Wild disrespect on that united squad.
Barรงa cooks this united team
