Its sad to go out , but play like united did and out your going to go, we never looked like winning either legs and talking of legs we looked tired and uninterested. I`ve said it befour and i`l say it again its time for a freshen up and start at the top, sir alex you have done united proud but its now time to call it a day. sorry if i`ve upset any united fans but deep down you know its true.

Unhappy

We played poorly and went out, no complaints

Utd have been poor for about 4 or 5 games now, scraping points, looking unconvincing, the slaughtering of the Gooners had the wrong affect.

Gatuso on Giggs changed things IMHO, Ruud still shy of match fitness, a touch of the Andy Coles kicking in for him at the moment, I'm sure it will come right for him.

Unless Utd pull their socks up Soton could be going through in the cup, we never like playing against Redknaps teams.

Well done Chelsea, my neighbour is a Chelsea supporter and he spent the entire 2nd half putting his curtains, tracks and nets back up, they'd come crashing down after the 3rd goal celebrations got out of hand LOL

Sorry, but I never for one minute believed that this current United side would have the ability or the DESIRE needed to pull off a win at the San Siro, and looking at the performance, neither did any of the people in white on the pitch.

Like said before, never really looked up for it.

Apart from Giggs hitting the post never troubled the keeper.
Considering the amount of attacking players we had they didn't quite work together.
I think they said it was the first time the front 6 played together. And it showed not on the same wave length.

Good to see Chelsea stick it up Ronaldinho's and the rest of Barca's ****!!!

Let's hope the gooners get beat.

Ooohhh i'm so bitter.

Aye there was a gulf in class betwixt the two clubs over 180+ minwits... The mighty mighty mighty reds were second best and not so mighty.

Its true we didn't deserve to win...........

I had a brilliant day out the atmosphere before the game in the main square in Milan Town was fantastic even if we did get ripped off big time for the beer (24 euros for 3 halfs of lager )

The only down side was after the fulltime whistle went we were pelted with coins and bottles, spat and p1ssed on by the Milan supporters, I have never been so frightened in my life, we were penned in by perspex walls and netting and riot police.

I was hit on the back of the head with a bottle full of water, knocked me clean off my feet and am still feeling a little dazed now.

They kept us in the ground 1 hour after the final whistle and it then took us three hours to get back to the airport.

Still it was a fantastic day out but sadly not one that I would repeat.

Shame that the experience has put you off going again.

Will still go to Old Trafford when ticket allocation permits but would never go to another away match in a foreign country

I was a little curious as to why there were not many females there now I know why
