Manchester United announce Champions League squad

On behalf of the team at Stretford-End.com, I would like to extend my congratulations to the players who made Manchester United’s squad for the Champions League group stage. The major exclusion from the squad are long-term absentee Owen Hargreaves. Should Sir Alex decide to use Hargreaves later, he may add him to his squad ahead of the knockout rounds. And now, I am proud to bring you United’s squad for the 2010/11 Champions League group stage…
