Sir Bobby Charlton has hailed Sir Alex Ferguson's champions as Manchester United's greatest side.
The Busby Babe and 1968 European Cup winner has played in or watched all the great teams at Old Trafford since the 1950s and feels the current crop top the lot.
United can lift their fourth major honour this season if they retain the European Cup and Charlton said: "I think this United team and squad are the best the club has ever had.
"The game is getting faster and more intense. There is more concentration needed than ever before. Every side wants to beat United so badly, but this group of players concentrate so hard. They are a brilliant set of lads.

"There are some games when you think it might be a bridge too far for us with injuries or suspensions, but it never happens. They are an astonishing bunch.
"If we beat Barcelona nobody could ever accuse us of fluking it. They are a quality team and a marvellous club. They deserve to be there in Rome."
Meanwhile, Ben Foster will miss the Champions League Final after having surgery on a ruptured ligament in his thumb.
