As for the 99 team being better i have to disagree, the fact that in the C/l final Ronnie Johnson and Jesper Blomqvist started and we had the likes of David May on the bench proves that by some distance lol Those players wouldn't get near the current team.
I think it just proves how some of the teams in Europe and especially the Prem have come along so far now that you have to have world class players throughout the starting 11.
Unfortunately i think we actually missed the engine of Fletcher as Anderson struggled and Giggs had a bit of a shocker.
Everyone's entitled to a bad game, and that was certainly one of them last night!!
Those "bizarre" tactics did a fine job ripping Arsenal apart so i can see the logic, Rooney has actually played well out on the left but if they can't get the ball to him there's b*gger all he can do about it.
At the end of the day Iniesta and Xavi completely controlled the game - Henry may as well have not played and to be fair other then the Goal, that one shot and the cheeky dive you didn't see a lot of Messi either throught the match.

To be Fair Nick - i forgot Henry was playing untill he hugged Messi after he second goal- that i thought was a bit crap for the best player in the world or what ever there calling him
