Played 12 Won 5 Drew 3 Lost 4 You lost one third of the games you played. In a cup competition. In the 4 games in the Knock-Out part of the competition (the "proper" bit, if you like), you scored 1 goal. Well done for reaching the QF, but let's keep it in perspective...
We just lost 3-0 to Liverpool team who on paper we completely outclass and got koncked out of our European competition with a full strength team against Kiev. Would we really have got a better result against Madrid? Saying that it was the first properly good team they faced is a little harsh due to the fact that only two properly good teams are in the competition this year. United look like getting all the way through to the final without facing a properly good team.
