The front-runners of the English league are lined up on Wednesday to clash with the Spanish champions by racing through the group stage, qualifying well before Christmas with a couple of games to spare.
Speaking with Sir Alex Ferguson in a recent interview, he said his boys have since demonstrated their powers on the domestic stage, going 12 points clear of Manchester City in the table and marching into the last 16 of the FA Cup.
“Our team is capable of winning the Champions League,” said Sir Alex at a pre-match press conference in Madrid. “There is a great spirit about the players” He added.
“The reality is this team doesn’t know when it’s beaten which is a great quality.” Ferguson said signifying his team was ready to meet the Spanish champions.
“The acid test is tomorrow and we have to get through it if we are to win this trophy.” Ferguson said.
The United boss is buoyed not only by form, but by the fitness of his squad with Paul Scholes being the only notable absentee from the plane to Spain.
“I think it’s a good time for us to be playing Real Madrid,” said Sir Alex. “We have a fantastic lead in our league and we have everyone fit. When you come to this part of the season you (often) have two or three players injured. We don’t have that, which is a bonus.
Enu ose in other words (bragging right can't help u in the pitch of play...) Anyways, you can make your predictions. Who do you think will win the day? For me, I say, may the best team win.
