SSN interviewed someone at the stadium - he says the pitch is absolute rubbish - undulations in the surface and the sod not knitted together after it was relaid.

Chelsea and Manchester United flew out to Moscow on Monday ahead of Wednesday's first ever all-English Champions League final.
The teams are set to arrive in the Russian capital at about 2200 local time (1900 BST), and will have a first training session on Tuesday afternoon.
Neither side have any injury worries, with recent doubts over Chelsea pair John Terry and Didier Drogba eased.
More than 40,000 English fans are expected to travel to watch the match.
Starting to get slightly excited now. It's great that we've won the Premiership as this certainly places the pressure on Chelsea. It will be interesting to see SAF's squad and team selection as there will be some key names missing. I do hope that Anderson and Nani at least get a place on the bench. Saha will most likely get a place on the bench also - what odds on him coming off the bench to score the winner in his last game for United?!

Getting excited now as well. I just hope we go out and give a good account of ourselves. Too often finals end up being such a disappointing game. I hope we really go at them.

Sky are always pro-london; they get confused when chavs play le arse. The possible exception being Phil Thomo, but he's a dipper! Who gives a flying fudge what they think? The chavs are going down.

"Who gives a flying fudge what they think? The chavs are going down."
I hear ya man. I just thought it was incredible that so many of them went against Utd. And bizarely, Tommo was one of the two to pick Utd!

2 days left guys...... here some Diary from United Site Moscow Diary 1: Reds are hereThe sun was shining as the Reds touched down in Moscow at 8pm local time on Monday evening after a four-hour flight from Manchester.
Sir Alex and his 24-man squad headed straight to the team hotel via a police escort for some dinner, before retiring to their rooms to rest.
On Tuesday, both United and Chelsea will get their first look at the Luzhniki Stadium during late afternoon training sessions in what are expected to be somewhat humid conditions.
Sir Alex and Avram Grant will also face the press ahead of Wednesday's Champions League final which will officiated by Slovakian Lubos Michel.
He was the man who took charge of the semi-final between Chelsea and Liverpool in 2005, when Luis Garcia was controversially awarded the goal that sent Liverpool through to the final.
Michel will be backed by assistant referees, Roman Slysko and Martin Balko, with Vladimir Hrinak performing fourth official duties.
