That’s like saying Man City or Cardiff will win the Premier League this season. I will offer you a friendly £100 bet, that Juve won’t win the champions league. Happy for it to be for charity I'm not so sure they are going to win it that I'd bet £100 on it as there are a lot of teams who could win it like Liverpool, City, PSG and others but I can't believe you are so sure that a team who were semi finalists last season can sign Ronaldo and then not be contenders. That's the last I'll say about Juve before this thread gets completely derailed and these comments get moved into the football talk section.

Madrid and Barca can prize away any player in the world. United can't. Surely that defines how they're bigger. And then you can move on to overall reputation, worldwide fanbase, historic players and European success. Man United might be having a bad run at this exact moment but they are absolutely miles bigger than both Madrid and Barcelona...always have been, always will be. I know you are never going to agree, but you are wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gritty Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Regardless, Utd will be a big scalp when we win. Have to wait until we're in the Champions League to down Barca and Real. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ram1964 Posted September 1, 2018 Share Posted September 1, 2018 This is a win win draw for Derby. Even if we lose the tie, the coverage and publicity,,presumably tv rights are all positives for the club .Expectation for us to win will be minimal so exiting the cup against Utd will not be detrimental should we lose.Just hope we make a game of it but would be great to take moaning mourinio scalp and tap him up for a few loanees in the process?

They all want to play for Real Madrid or Barcelona, because they’re the biggest clubs on the planet. I totally disagree.....without googling it you couldn’t name 10 players that played for Real Madrid in the 60’s, 70’s or 80’s..you could name 50 United players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why did you bother putting Liverpool in there who havent won the league in almost 30 years and miss out when we played Leicester in the Cup, who were Champions of England at the time..??

Colombia stopped for the Classico, some shops even closed for the day. Barely saw a United shirt out there. Never been to Asia so can’t vouch for what it’s like there. As for both sides of this debate claiming one of either Barca/Real to be ‘miles bigger’ than the other, or vice versa, well hyperbole like that is ridiculous. All three clubs are ducking massive. Any difference between them is small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo Ram Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 My son is back from travelling that week so plan to try and get tickets and make a night of it and stay over. Any idea when they will go on sale, what our allocation is likely to be and how easy it might be to get a ticket....I just have a customer number????

RiddingsRam Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 Hope they price this sensibly . Not like last year's £45 in the FA cup . Can't expect Uncle Mel to subsidize it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suppose it depends on the allocation but being it possibly being on T.V and midweek I'd Hazard it guess it won't be too bad to get tickets , should make general sale .
