Carrick says strength in depth will be the difference form last season's semi against AC Milan

Another way of looking at that is to say there will be no excuses if we get knocked out in yet another Champions League semi final

There isn't much confidence in Barcelona that they will overcome United

Henry has not set the world on fire in Catalonia. They wouldn't be too sad to see him go and he probably wouldn't mind leaving, but where to, i can't see Arsene Wenger taking him back to Arsenal. But Arsenal are supposed to be the club he supports and moving to another London club would alienate him from the gooners support.

The only politician who has merged with any credit over the last year. I bet the banks would hate to have him anywhere near the chancellorship. Geoff Mulgan and Will Hutton on the £50 billion bank mortgage scheme

What it all boils down to really, is the greedy rich have been able to play around with funny money. Complicated schemes that seemed to be too complicated to be true, were just that, too good to be true ( similar to how the gimps took over United without having the money to do so. And now us loyal fans that have been going for years are going to find ourselves priced out of going, if they haven't already, as the match going fan pays for their takeover of the club ). But the rich will walk away richer whilst everybody pays for it over the next few years, as usual. Just look at the 10p tax measure.
