World Club CupWorld Club Cup Manchester United by TechnicallyPerfect (U10116032) 21 December 2008 Congratulations to Manchester United on becoming champions of the world, however, surely if this competition is to be considered as on a par with the Champions League, the structure has to be revamped in a big way, taking into account the dominance of European clubs, perhaps providing a proportionate amount of clubs within Europe to match its supposed superiority.

VictorINQuito (U13757525) posted Dec 23, 2008 Congratulations to Man United. As a fan of Liga de Quito, I have to say that I agree with many: Liga looked poor in comparison to its best. If any had seen the final of the Libertadores against the brazilian Fluminense who was beaten in Brazil in the historic Maracana, you could understand how good and worthy champions Liga was. Unfortunately the best players have already gone to foreign teams including Guerron, the leading scorer of the Libertadores who is now playing at Getafe in Spain. Now even the manager had to go since Liga cannot afford his service anymore. This always happens with succesful southamerican teams. Nevertheless Liga played with great professionalism and looked always to win the game and for this I congratulate Bauza and his team for ascending a team worth $7 million among the best 2 teams in the world.

Redsalive (U13757573) posted Dec 23, 2008 It is easier to win this tournament than the Carling Cup. Other teams at least had to play a few games, but Man Utd just went their and they were automatically in the semit finals!! They played teams that I have never even heard of, so I don't know what all the hype is about. make the Club World Cup a proper tournament and invite the top two or three teams in it from around the world and my bet is they would not do all that well.

Gorran27 (U13759166) posted Dec 24, 2008 What a stupid/jealous scouser! ‘It is easier to win this tournament than the Carling Cup’!!! Sorry, you AUTOMATICALLY get entered into the Carling Cup “EVERY YEAR” (you should know as you love this cup)! Now let’s think, teams we had to beat to get there, hmm?? Try Roma, Barcelona and Chelsea to name but a few – then after all that United still had to travel to Japan and beat teams that they have not played against before! i.e. less unfamiliar teams than Liverpool were with Barnsley last year!
