Sajan,
Cricket was the laziest game and only because of T20 it is now a bit fast pace, don't compare Sachin with Football, cricket is only played by handful of countries were as football is played in nook and corner of the world. Football has produced greater than any sports in the world. Maradona,Pele, zico, platini, Frank, Cryuf and so on and on.......Cricket has only just one man Broadman. You need to qualify to play world cup and no such in Cricket. Sachin is only known to those countries which are colonel to Britain.

Messi is more famous than Tendulkar... Bhosariwala salan...Messi plays the world's most popular game...cricket is meant for weak and lazy people...Tendulakr will live just a month or so if he plays football.
I am amazed when people start abusing on the net. Some of them dont even have a point, they would be abusing barca if barca had lost it!! United were outplayed, outclassed, out thought. Does that mean they are as bad as the people on this board think? They played last 3 semi finals and 2 finals in Cl, won last 3 EPL, have a history and a young squad. I think United will be feared and hated for years to come. They have what it takes to win it again. I am sure United will be in another CL semifinal next year. All those who hate ferguson coz he lost yesterday, last year we defeated barca! This year they returned the favor. Yes it hurts, but that is not the end of the world. You hate fergusson because he is not your team's coach.

I think Fergie's strat was wrong from the start..He should have played like Chelsea played against Barca...5 in the midfield and not giving any space to Xavi and Iniesta which would not have allowed any of the fwds to play... I think SAF tried to think that his team could beat Barca by "not playing ugly football" and was wrong..because the way Barca were playing and looking dangerous, there was only one way they could be stopped..that was by putting everybody in your own half(like Chelsea did)...and hitting back on the counter attack..
I am a big big man utd fan..i completely accept that man utd was outplayed yesterday..midfielders were pathetic...barca was too good..except for the first 10 mins barca was dominating like anything..these r all facts..i wont deny it..but what hurting is u people insulting man utd like anything...when did ronaldo say "I am the best in the world"...when did alex ferguson say "i am the best manager in the world"..its all media hype and suddenly if ronaldo doesnt plays well then everyone say " he is pathetic..he is very poor compared to messi"..man utd haters cant digest the fact that they have won so many trophies and if they win they will say "refrees helped them..they scored only one goal..they keep on winning by 1-0..they r very lucky team..blah blah blah..guys just accept that man utd is a good team and they were outplayed by barcelona yesterday..barcelona was certainly better..for all man utd haters i am saying "celebrate barcelona's victory but dont use harsh words on man utd team or sir alex ferguson" this is my humble request...and dont say sir alex is overrated coach..an overrated coach cant win 11 permier league title, 2 champions league title and also some FA cups...

Dude, you seem to be the only sensible guy around who accepts that a part of Man Utd is media hype.Man U have a few inherent weaknesses like over dependency on strikers which Barca capitalised well on.They had kind of choked the midfield and Man Utd's midfielders inability to take control meant the supply lines dried up as the strikers stopped getting fed.

Very true. After they were t(h)rashed twice in the EPL by Liverpool these fans still claim their team is the best . What an irony
