Hi all

What a game. 3 points was what we wanted and what we got (and deserved as
well). 

Juve played really well and battled for everything. If they were a bit more
prolific in front of goal, this might have been a much closer contest.
Amonst others, Zalayeta impressed me most and he looks like a future
prospect. He is very strong, good in the air, dribbles well and has pace. 

I knew that after the early goal United would sit back and absorb the
pressure - why do they have to do this? I was hoping we don't get a repeat
of the latest Manchester derby. The performance improved greatly in the
second half resulting in a good win. Juve was lucky not to have their keeper
sent off. 

Next week ... it would be interesting to see what Fergie has planned for the
rest of the CL campaign. We need one draw to clinch qualification (for 7th
straight season) to the quarter-finals - is there an advantage to top the
group? We have the Worthington Cup final next weekend so Fergie might want
to rest a few players (why not the whole first team?) and go for the victory
against Basel to clinch qualification. The thought of trying to win next
week against Juve and attempt to keep them from qualifying is too huge a
task for us and I think they will comfortably qualify even if we beat them
next week.

Fergie looked sick before kick-off ... flu perhaps? Beckham was head and
shoulders man of the match and he showed his appreciation to the crowd after
the game. O'Shea again showed his talents in the second half. Giggs had a
goodish game and was very willing to try things - he's getting there. Ruud's
shirt giveaway was classic - imagine he does this after each time he scores
- the megastore will not have to stock any of his shirts.
