@Taz, I dont refute Barca have improved. All I am saying is, United have evolved to be a dynamic side. Also, though we know United are dangerous in attacking, they are lethal in counter-attacking. And with Barcelona controlling possession, quick thinking and fast paced players will be needed, hence Chicha having a nod over Berba. Chicha has the pace to break Mascherano in defence. Abidal/Maxwell may not have fully recovered from the injuries and illness, and Mascherano did a good job against Real Madrid.
