It's not their strongest ever team but the manc vermin are far from average. They have probably the best defensive unit in the league when all their players are fit. They have very good wingers in Nani and Valencia. They've got great options up front with Shrek, Berbatov and the Mexican midget. Their central midfield isn't great but it's industrious and determined, to the point where the likes of Carrick, Park, Anderson and Fletcher all can do a good job when called upon. As individuals they're far from great but they all put in a shift and work well within the overall team. And they have experienced players like Giggs and Scholes who somehow are still able to play at a reasonably high level. And most importantly for them they have a manager who has always managed to instill a winning mentality in all his teams. I'm afraid they're not average, they're a bit better than that and will be in another final. And it wouldn't surprise me in the least if the spawny cunts do manage to beat Barca or Real in the final.
