I've been looking forward to this game for a while. Not just to watch but I think this is a very good spot for Manchester United to make a statement. I know it's a preseason friendly but I think this game means a lot more to Manchester United than it does to Barcelona. The best two teams in the world met in the Champion's League final but the game showed just how big the gap is between Barcelona and everyone else.
I think these two teams may just meet again next May and I think Manchester United needs a good result to show themselves they can play with Barcelona. I know the teams that may meet again in May will be different than the teams that we'll see tonight, Manchester United wants to show themselves, Barcelona and the rest of the soccer world that the gap between them and Barcelona may not be as large as most people think.
