United just need to find a bit of form. I know they've only got a week and I know that everyone (myself included) is shouting at how lucky they were to get anything against a better Villa side but I like to see the glass as half full.

Put it this way, was the way United played on Tuesday reminiscent of their old selves?

No - and yet they still managed to pull out a draw against an awesome Porto team.

Perhaps people would say they were lucky as in the Villa game, but Tevez and Rooney's work-rate meant they were deserving of their goals so they in essence created their own luck. If United can produce a performance next week that is even half way to that which they're capable of, I can see them going through no probs. Porto cannot possibly play any better than they did and United cannot possibly play any worse so a United win may not be as far-fetched as some people may think.
