They are now out of European football for the first time in 10 years. I can only imagine that it will also now herald the end of Sir Alex Ferguson's tenure as manager of the team, though when he goes and how will be up to the powers that be, unless he decides to cut his losses himself.
Listening to Dunphy and Giles last night on RTE, they were recounting how they were able to trace the decline of the team to gave against Porto 2 years ago. Others would argue that selling Beckham was the beginning of the end. Regardless of when it began there can be no doubt that losing the game last night is a huge blow to United and whatever and whoever comes next will as Dunphy put it "Have a dog of a job".

Painful?! Was it?! I think it has been a really great game of Benfica. They even could have won 4-1...
Ups, sorry. I just got the impression that you might be a Manchester-Fan!
It's a pity you chose to remain anonymous it's the cowards way out in my opinion.
And no I'm not United fan but I am a fan of football.
