In the second leg they are the victims of a ridiculous sending off, and have to play 2/3 of the match against one of the best passing teams in years with 10 men. They concede to a blatantly offside goal, but STILL will not be denied.

Good luck to them, and good luck to their manager too. It's worth remembering that his reaction probably has much to do with "the interpreter" lines which Barca fans have been giving it for years. Once again he has triumphed with a palpably inferior team, against a team which hugely outspent the one he is managing. I don't expect it'll make many of the wrist slashers admit they were wrong, nor do I expect it'll make people take to him.

What it does do though for anybody who is genuinely interested in football is confirm Mourinho as by far the most impressive manager of his generation. I wonder where we would be in the league THIS season, with exactly the same group of players we have, if he were manager. No doubt some on here will tell you we'd be just the same, or perhaps even embroiled ina  fight for ninth or something, but I can't agree.

Great display from Inter... 10men against Barcelona.. Anyone who thinks any other side would have progressed using any other tactics besides defending with number is fcking clueless and deluded !

Jesus christ you should go and support them the way you carry on

Get over it.

I'd fucking love it if my club's manager showed that much passion. If I was managing a side in the CL semi final and just made the final, I would be on the pitch, especially to p!ss off the opposition.

Any manager who shows that much passion is going to be idolised.

Hang on Igor, Mourinho's been there two years and has sold Inter's best player . Jeez if you try and credit Houllier at all for Istanbul where nine of the players were his you get howled at from the rooftops. Now, with his front two for starters and his central midfield kingpin his own signings it's Mancini's team?

Give over mate. Sometimes it's better to just hold your hands up.

Yet a side has gone to the Nou Camp in recent years with the intend to actually attack barce and ended up beating Barce as well .

Not really...

Etoo, Millito, Sneijder, Motta, Pandev...

Formation and outlook are very different and cant even compare the two sides tactically.. Under Mancini i have no doubt that same Inter side would have struggled to get past Chelsea never mind Barce with 10men..
