[h1]United fan suffers stabbing in Rome[/h1]
A Manchester United fan is recovering in Rome after being stabbed ahead of the Champions League final.

The supporter was attacked near his hotel in the Italian capital by up to four suspects in the early hours of this morning, according to Sky Sports News.

The man received stab wounds to the left leg and was later discharged from hospital.

A spokesperson for Greater Manchester Police in Rome said: "I can confirm that we have received reports of a stabbing in Rome. "We have no details yet of the incident but we are making full inquiries."

The 54-year-old male victim discharged himself from hospital after his condition was not deemed as serious. A Foreign Office spokesperson said: "We have been receiving reports of an incident and are looking into it."

In Rome, British Embassy spokesman Pierluigi Puglia added: "We know that a British man was stabbed in the left leg overnight and was later released from hospital.

"We have spoken to two of his friends who contacted us but we are still trying to trace the man himself to check he is well.

"I do not believe any arrests were made in connection with this incident and we have no reported arrests elsewhere."

Starting to get ansy...Just 2 hrs left.

I'm changing my prediction...Messi with a double-hat trick by halftime. Barca wins 12-3 in the most thrilling finals since 2005.
 
Hopefully Man U takes care of business.

Anyone have an update on Henry, is he going to play?
 
It's likely Henry and Iniesta will start. Barca dont even need Henry to be 70% healthy for him to have an impact on the game. His prescence alone willspread out Man Utd's defence which'll give Eto'o and Messi more space out there.

Iniesta will have to play good if Barca are to win...I'm guessing Barca will have a 3-man midfield vs. 5 Man Utd guys in the middle (actually 4 sinceRonaldo never tracks back

).
 
Sir Alex holds the key to this one...

Berba and Tevez on the bench...
Ronaldo to start upfront with Rooney playing wide left and Park on the opposite side...
let's see if he can trouble Barca's makeshift defence with his pace...

with Fletcher out,i can see Giggs in a three-man central midfield alongside Carrick and Anderson...
no major change in the back four i think,unless Rio fails to recover from his injury...
 
Just woke up, showered, and have begun to take a few back.

Heinekin of course.

I am ready for this game.
 
I was just gonna stay in my house and watch it, but I saw two different people on the train wearing Barca jerseys and I couldn't resist heckling them.

That convinced me that I really need to go to a bar to watch this.
