Well that was the shock of the round. Got it totally wrong.

(Although if I was a zeitung tipster I would be saying CT got it exactly right with his tip of five goals )

Can't believe how poor Celtic's defence was.
Celtic should progress though, with Nakamura, Gravesen and Venegoor they will win games.

Also if Carrick is worth £18m what must Scholes be worth

Always said Scholes is under rated.
Nice to have him back, was well missed last season.

A more one sided 3-2 you'll never see. The second half was like a training session for United.


The game reminded me of one of those FA Cup ties where the plucky minnows scurry about working overtime to keep the classy 'big team' at bay.

The team from North of the border definitely raise their game for the big occassion. But I very much doubt they would be able to sustain it in any of europes premier leagues over the course of a season. Mind you, looking on the bright side, they'd be a good money spinner for the clubs in the Championship.

I agree, with the squad they have.

Put them in a better league though and they will attract a better quality of player.

Although I got the margin of defeat wrong, I still think United should have crucified them with the chances they had. Another win up there
