Just home, seen the goals now on SSN. Fantastic goal for Ronaldo, loved the bit of skill and Tevez's goal was more proof of the blossoming partnership between the two. Nani with ANOTHER assist for us with Rooney's goal and a confidence boosting goal for Piqué which opened the floodgates and was a goal he deserved for a composed debut in Europe. Disappointed with the fans tonight, not surprised as the tickets were on General Sale but nevertheless. I was by the corner flag in the East Stand right next to the Kiev fans and there were about ten people singing, two of those being me and my old man - fuckin' disappointing man. That's qualification wrapped up but I'm a perfectionist and want EIGHTEEN points and top spot. Good, professional performance today and we rested players whilst also giving the likes of Carrick, Fletcher, Pique, Evans, Simpson, Kuszczak and Saha match time.

I thought it was a great game, Pique is really coming along, I love the way he plays. Kuszak was pretty good for his 45 minutes. It did feel abit muted, it never felt like there was ever a chance of us losing the game

A very good performance and we didn't concede any goals which is even better. We completely dominated the opposition and passed the ball comfortably so no complaints on my end, well done lads!

Today showed we have an awesome shot-stopper in our ranks.
Disappointed with the overall crowd support though.

I'm just a bit disappointed with Nani. Where was he at all? He was almost unnoticeable during the game and his corner kicks were nothing brilliant. Well, maybe it just wasn't his day... are you serious I thought nani was class tonight. The cross on 3-0 was world class and he had several good shots on goal, showed good skill and passing. Kiev didn't turn up for this one and it was a stoll in the park for our lads. could easily have won 7-0 or 8-0 if we needed to. Bring on Blackburn

Yeah i agree i thought Nani played quite well today and i noticed him a few times. Had a couple of attempts, one right near the end (just before Ronaldo's?) that almost went in.
Even on T.V you could tell that the atmosphere was nothing like it usually is. Disappointing, but we still got the result. Love it.
Also, the fact that we finally kept a clean sheet in however many games its been was good, and even better considering it was with two young players.

Pique man of the match? I was really impressed with him, he was confident and good with VIda a couple mistakes but really good for European debut, that Goal was pretty nice too, its good to see some of the youngsters proving themselves.

Great result for United but wow could Dynamo have been any more dull?
Pique and Simpson really did well in the back and great on Fergie for realising that this was a perfect game for them.
Ronaldo really wanted to score a few today and you could see that he was disappointed with himself till he finally scored and that was a really nice through ball from Evra.
Hope United go on and get 18 points.

No sympathy stonecarver.
It was a good workmanlike performance from the lads, and it was great to see Simpson, Pique, and Evans get their chance. I think Simpson is now the logical long-term replacement for the Neviller.
Saha yet again showed good touch when he came on. If the guy can actually stay fit, then we have a fantastic chance of picking up some Silverware this season.
I think TK did well in goal; he is a good shot-stopper after all.

I think the major problem most of us had with last night's game was the noticeable lack of atmosphere. Although, the way Kiev set up shop from the first 10 seconds didn't exactly give a basis for a classic European end-to-end football night. They were boring, and the win was never in doubt.
Pleased to see Pique, Evans and Simpson all clocking up Champions League minutes. Saha was frustrating as usual, showed precisely what you want to see from your forwards, but we are all counting down to his next injury crisis. I was also glad to see Ronny score, he looked like he was getting more and more frustrated near the end when he was free about 4 times and whomever was on the ball took a potshot instead!
All in all, a good result that never really had us move out of 2nd gear. Roll on Blackburn!
