I dont think Ajax will beat united but getting to the final is already something huge. Even more if you look at the current status of dutch football. Eredivisie is crap for man years national team is horrible at the moment. So no matter if Ajax lose or wins VS united it is a big achievement they are doing great in El.
I hope Milano clubs will take Ajax's place as most formidable has-beens.

Im not sure it is, United played it well by resting their players, what will be embarrassing is if they lose against vigo or fail to win the Europa League.
From their current starting 11 United rested only Pogba and arguably Blind, Trashford and Lingurd played (and were as bad as the whole squad). And Arsenal was really bad, abysmal, if they would've lost, I'm afraid Claudie from Arsenal Fan TV ends his life.

They gave a debut to a youngster and rested Valencia. Bailly was also rested, as was Fellaini. Blind has been one of their best players at the back recently and a regular.

He wants to sneak into the CL through the EL and then come end of the season he will say I am in the CL, I won a European cup and I won a local cup. 2 trophies and CL football. Great season.

Ah, yeah, forgot about Valencia and Bailly. Fair enough.

And Blind being on the best players speaks volumes about mighty United.

He's saying for Celta, not United :D
Ocelbot broken again :disagree: @DAiDEViL




Jose Mourinho has described Manchester United's Europa League semi-final, second leg against Celta Vigo on Thursday as "the most important match of our history".


"I think in terms of motivation, we are even," said Mourinho. "For Celta it is, in their words, the most important match of their history.

when was the last time we had 4 "big" clubs in the final of both CL and EL? this season we have Juventus-Madrid and a final of Ajax-United is very likely atm. we usually dont have a EL final of this caliber so its a very rare occurrence i guess

Was just a matter of time really. @Völler left Ocelbot alone. Now, without monthly maintenance and oil change, the system is shutting down itself step by step, focusing on keeping system relevant programs alive.

Sevilla-Liverpool and sevilla- Benfica is of the same caliber if not better. Ajax is just a name but if it's the name your talking about then fair enough.

Sevilla isnt a big club historically though, maybe right now they are bigger but dont come close to what Ajax was on the world of football throughout the history. And i meant exactly those, the top 10 biggest ones - Juve, Milan, inter, Real, Barcelona, Bayern, Ajax, Benfica, United, Liverpool
