Manchester United fans are right to be concerned that their club could become part of a wider programme of Qatari sportswashing, Amnesty International has said.

You think Newcastle fans didn't want the Saudis??
United are a different level. Alright oil money buying tinpot clubs like City, Chelsea, PSG, Newcastle etc but it'll be a sad day when a top club like United, Liverpool, Barca, Real or Bayern goes.

Be no chance of Munich getting the oil tycoons running them.
Proper club.

The Brits speak out of both sides of their mouths when it comes to Qatar and the Gulf States.

One minutes there's talk of sports washing when it comes to owning a football club but nothing when it comes to the multi-billions worth of armament sales into the very same region.

If you're so concerned of human rights in these places then there's a more obvious place to start than worry about them buying a football club.

Brian Kerr and Gerry Armstrong make TV3 a hard watch  :(

From the Bunker

Bruno fernandes is not the sharpest!  ::)

Massive win, Fred get's serious bad press but second half he was excellent. Martinez best signing in years.

Utd celebrating like they've won the Champions League lol, it's like Kerry in Killarney 2012 thinking they've beaten 2003 or 2005 Tyrone.

Milltown Row2

None of us are getting out of here alive, so please stop treating yourself like an after thought. Ea

Fred doing well now he has a proper player beside him. Magnificent tonight.

Best side over the two legs won. Made it harder for themselves than it should have been by giving away a silly penalty which Degea probably should have saved.

Stepped up 2nd half to prevail,  the sub changes all delivered the impact ETH would have demanded. Of course its a win for the Old Trafford crowd to celebrate, Barcelona was in superb form coming into this game and leading the La Liga by 8 points ahead of Real Madrid whom we seen what they did the other night.

Small matter of Wembley up next and opportunity to win a first trophy for 6 years, not sure how much will be left in the tank after tonight but maybe momentum of that victory will be enough.

An Watcher

Hopefully Rashford has got out of the Uruguayuans pocket by the time Sunday comes around

Armagh18

What a game, what an atmosphere. I know its only a europa qualifier but there is a special feeling about now. Regardless how how the rest of the season goes, theres a feeling United are back with the big boys .

Helix.

Frenkie De Jong rejected Man United all summer to play Champions League football just to get knocked out by Man United in the Europa League.

Hopefully have enough in the tank for Sunday and next few weeks fatigue will start to show.

The Portuguese/Argentine/Brazilian players having a big impact. Ten Haag has done a great job.
