United don't have anything to do tonight as they've already qualified for the knock-out stages; however, Fergie has claimed that he wants the side to do right by the other teams in the group.
Meanwhile, Chelski need a result tonight in Italy as they take on the Grey Lady:
Juventus (3-5-2): Buffon, Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini, Lichtsteiner,
Vidal, Pirlo, Marchisio, Asamoah, Quagliarella, Vucinic.
Subs: Storari, Caceres, Pogba, Pepe, Giovinco, Giaccherini, Matri.

Subs: Turnbull, Romeu, Torres, Moses, Marin, Bertrand, Piazon.
Referee: Cuneyt Cakir (Turkey)
Wow - fairly obvious what RDM is doing tonight, with five middies and no out and out strikers in the side. Torres, who was pants at the weekend, is relegated to the benchypoo.
Not just qualified but won the grouop
I am glad United are putting out a young team. Especially Powell. I would like him to get some Prem games
Classic picture posted!
The other two Brit teams have it all to do. Celtic could surprise everyone and qualify tonight with a score draw
Chelsea definitely need something tonight as well
Still at work but hope to be home soon after kick offs
There's talk that Torres may be packed and sent back to Athletico Madrid
How is RDM all of a sudden in trouble.... he won the European Cup!
Jose didn't
Avram didn't
Big Phil didn't
Butch didn't
Gus didn't
Carlo didn't
AVB didn't
I know it was a fluke but...
Barcelona have already qualified today after beating Spartak Moscow away 3-1
Bottom of Group F Lille won at BATE
Good news for Bayern and Valencia.
A draw today would qualify them both
Celtic in the city where they won the European Cup in 1967
Not surprisingly, Barca have completed a 0-3 win in Moscow earlier on today, with a brace from that man, Leo Messi. So they're almost assured a place in the knock-out rounds now, despite that loss to Celtic.
Celtic travel to Benfica today and can qualify with a win.
Afternoon, UWS - glad that you enjoyed the image I posted.
Chelsea I guess just needs a draw. They are playing the group's doormat in the last game
Bell about to ring
I'll be back when I get home
TTFN
Right - I've switched off the Gillette Soccer Special and I'm onto the FSC link for the Chelski match. Clive Tyldesley on the commentary today.
I definitely understand your point about RDM - Chelski bosses are impatient when it comes to their managers.
Oh - off the woodwork early doors for Juve. Cech just about got his hand to that and got some fortune from the Sunday Roast.
Juve seem up for it early doors. Chelski are having trouble getting out of their own half.
GOAL! No - Clive is getting excited over nothing. Hazard's shot was finally into the side netting but great stuff there. Marvelous run by Oscar to set him up.
Uh oh - Celtic are behind in the 7th minute. That means that the Lisbon side are level on points and only a goal behind Celtic at present. Tight stuff in Group G.
To be fair to Chelski, they haven't just come to defend in Turin. This isn't a replay of that match against Barca last season.
Nice short corner routine from Juve and Cech saved well from Marchesio's shot.
I am home... still scoreless
I now have a Soccer Special going on a link
Do you work tonight?
I do
When do you leave for DC?
Nah - I'm off teaching all week. I'm just in the office because it's easier to do my grading here than it is at home.
Goals in the lower leagues in England but I don't think there are any in the Championship
Juve have a freekick right at the edge of the box.. dangerous!
Plymouth are losing at Bradford
I'm off to DC in the morning. Looking forward to it.
Goal in Chelsea's group... to the NORDS!!
Should have a great time
Please send my love to the family
Dangerous free kick chance for Pirlo now. We know what he's been doing for Movember.
Pirlo... the bearded one... with a weak shot
Straight at Cech - that goal really helps Chelski's cause.
I suspect that's only a day or two's growth for Pirlo.
Just noticed that Celtic are already losing in Lisbon
Shak ties it up at Nord... very controversial.. the ball was being kicked back to the keeper after it was kicked out for injury... the guy cuts it off and scores
Already 3 goals in the 'other' game in United's group
Cluj lead Braga 2-1
I guess I should look for a link for United
"what a goal"... Nords are back in
Wow - we're watching the wrong match!
Interesting, from the kick off it looked liked Shak were going to let them score... but then a bloke stopped him late... but then they go score a great goal
Sheff Utd 2 up against Crewe
Juve blew a chance there
How do you lose to WBA at the weekend and then get something in Turin against Juve a couple of days later?
I have a link for United... United in white and still scoreless
Goal at the Stadium of Light... FOR CELTIC!!!!!
Don't tell me you're teaching tonight, mate?
I am going to open a link for that one too!!!
That would be three videos going at once, plus the BBC and the LOB
Yup, I teach tonight and tomorrow during the day
We were supposed to go on field trip to see a basketball game today but the team that was supposed to play had a flight cancelled from Carolina!
Not happy to be in the class today!!
United being dominated!
Pompey losing at Fratton to Leyton Orient
ooh, United almost get a goal at the back post from their first corner... now a second... cleared
Cluj are now three one up to Braga
GOAL! A bit jammy but it'll count. Juve go ahead. 1-0!
Juve take the lead against the Reigning Champs
The shot came in from Pirlo and Quagliarella just kind of redirected it out of Cech's reach.
Celtic would qualify if it stays like this
Chelsea save off the line!!
Now it's off the line from Cole - Chelski are rocking!
End to end stuff - Mata was in there but couldn't bury it. Whew!
Cynical from Bonucci there - and he picks up a yellow.
oh... off the bar from United!!!!
Powell with the header from a corner
Nice effort
Coming up to half-time. Sounds like it's been a snooze fest in Istanbul. Welcome to Slumberland.
United have a chance to win every group match for the first time. I think their last match is Cluj at home.
I have got so many windows open... there's no room for them all!!
Ramires has been eager to shoot tonight but hasn't had his shooting boots on.
It's Desmond in the other game in Chelsea's group
Crewe get a goal back at Bramall Lane
Must be quite a breeze at your house, then.
Boom boom!
Not a big club.
Half time in Turin, then. Chelski up against it but the scoreline in the other match helps them. 1-0
My computer is working well!!
TV with Chelsea
Link with United
Link with Celtic
Link with SS
It is Desmond at Bramall Lane too
Enjoying a bit of half-time microwaved popcorn.
Keano is in Turin - why? Shouldn't he be in Istanbul tonight?
I heard the other day that our neighbor puts regular popcorn kernels in a normal paper lunch bag. She pokes some holes in the bag and makes popcorn that way!!
Very interesting
What about Young Ferg for next LUFC manager?
Fergie kicked him down the stairs!
That could be interesting
That would give them a pipeline to United's extras!
Valencia and Bayern drawing nil nil
That's all both teams need... West Germany vs Austria in 82 springs to mind
United underway in "hell"
Dangerous cross by Juve in the opening seconds of the second half
Celtic still coming out of the tunnel
We're back underway. I'm sticking with the traditional microwave method rather than the brown paper bag. That sounds naff.
Chelski are fast asleep at the start of this half. Juve nearly in again.
It does sound naff but it is interesting that it works!
Over three minutes after United start the half.... Celtic get underway
I'm sure that the kernels would pop but you need some grease in the bag in order to make the popcorn at all interesting.
Vucinic goes down appealing for a pen against Cahill. Ref not buying it.
Gala get a decent shot off but saved by Lindy
That could have a been a pen for Juve
Then Chelsea get a free kick down the other end just outside the D
Never a pen... stay on your feet and shoot!!!
Mata is hacked down by the assassin Chiellini. Good free kick chance.
Crewe have come all the way back.. they are now beating the Blades 3-2
Mata hits the wall
Mata with a rubbish effort straight into the wall.
I am ignoring your Sheffield related updates. :-p
Benfica guy rolling around after a tackle.. it was fair... he isn't hurt!
Another goal in the 'other' game
To Shak... not good news for Chelsea
2-3
Great save from a bullet header by Lindy
NOW... GALA SCORES FROM THE RESULTING GORNER
Commentators haven't caught up with it, yet. Chelski need a goal badly.
Again... United losing again in the CL.. I think they have been behind in all of them... won them all
Shak are now 4-2 up
Pompey are now two down to Orient
If Chelski lose this one, I guarantee you that the same hacks that were calling for Torres to be dropped will question his omission.
Another goal at BR... to the Blades.. 3-3
Absolutely.
Decent save by a Celtic defender after a shot was past the keeper. Still 1-1... hold on you Hoops
Decent effort from Pirlo... corner
United have a chance... Welbeck sets up Hernandez but he took to long.. the chance is blocked
Anderson with a weak shot for United... United are finally asking a few questions
GOAL for JUVE!!
2-0
GOAL! Juve make it 2-0 and Chelski are right up against it now.
Great run by Asamoah there and he pulled it back for Vidal to thump home.
I would say if the scores stay the same, if Shak and Juve draw next week, Chelsea will be out!
Shak will have 10, Juve 9, Chelsea 7
Chelsea win will have 10 with a win next round but Shak would go to 11 and Juve would be 10 and will have beaten and drawn with Chelsea
Consecutive corners for United.. neither one beats the man at the 6 yard box.. pathetic!
Celtic still holding firm.. under half an hour to go
Pompey got a goal back but then fall 1-3 down to Orient
The Old Headbutter Zizou is in the stnads tonight.
Can you teach my class tonight please???
Jeff Stelling would be happy.. Hartlepool tie it up against Oldham.. I didn't realize they are way behind at the bottom
Pompey make it 2-3
PLAY UP POMPEY
POMPEY PLAY UP
Looks like we will see El Nino after all, for about 20 minutes. Mikel off. That should have happened 10 minutes ago.
Torres Time for Chelsea on for Mikel
No chance, mate. It's all yours. I'm going to the movies.
You bugger!!
What are you going to see?
Come on Celtic go forward and get a goal!!!
You too United
Benfica almost get on to the end of a cross but it flies across the box
Under 18 minutes for United to get a goal.. of course.. they got three in the last ten minutes last match!
Goal in Lisbon... to Benfica!
The link behind SS
Benfica are now ahead of Celtic in the group but they go to Barca and Celtic host Spartak Moscow
Ref gives a Turk a card for diving in the box
Of course, Barca would be resting some players
Gala with a rasping shot hits the woodwork!
Phew
United have taken off Powell and Anderson
Valencia have taken the lead at home to Bayern... they didn't read the agreed script!
Okay, it almost time for United to score three goals... 10 to go
This one's done and dusted - as are Chelski. Looks like it's only going to be Arse and United, and possibly Celtic, in the knock-out stages.
All three Brit teams losing tonight
Citeh aren't dead. Win their last two games and they could still make it
Shak are 5-2 up
Bayern tie it up in Spain... agreement back on
Welbeck coming off for NUMBER FORTY-ONE!!
His name is King!
New King of Old Trafford.. move over Dennis and Eric
It is annoying that my Celtic link is behind the SS one!
Ashley Young tries to go past a defender and dives!
The boos are deafening when United have the ball... how dare they have possession
Weak shot by Hernandez.. shame
Yeah - but both Citeh matches are tough. I don't see it. I think they're out of Europe altogether.
3-0! Bloody Norah!
GOAL.. TO JUVE!!
THREE NIL
Cech is out of his box and the ball rolls into an empty net
Fergie made a big show of how he was going to do right by the other sides in the group. I don't how playing the likes of Buttner does that.
I don't care about the other games.. United won four straight and forget about Europe until March
Into added time in Turkey
Macheda called offside
Game over in Turin
A real walloping... just Italy and England!
Lots of time wasting in Lisbon
United have lost to Gala 1-0
Wow - a terrible night for the Brits.
A chance for Celtic but a shot over the bar
I'm off then. Enjoy your class tonight, mate! ;-}
It was expected in Turkey
You canna win anything with kids!
Take care Bob
Have a safe trip and happy Thanksgiving
Valencia and Bayern draw and their both through
Ended 3-3 in Sheffield
Celtic have lost but can still go through if they better Benfica's score next round... home to Spartak M and Benfica away at the Nou Camp... still alive
Off to walk the dog in the frozen tundra!
Then off to work
