    ADP still didn't cover much ****ing distance. Great player even at 38 but he didn't do much running at all

    does anyone else find the appeal of a final really drops off when it's two teams from the same country?

    yes well done, your domination of local television rights means you buy the best players, smash domestic teams 8-0 and win Champions Leagues

    I'll still watch it though, even if it's become predictable

    100%

    but juve will get torn by barca in the final in saying that imo

    Messi was unbelievable this morning, in 15 minutes he changed the game from a close tie to basically over.

    I don't find two teams from the same country in the final less appealing, but I personally find the El Classico less appealing. The hype around that game always bores me, and I hate how it's about two players moreso than about two teams.

    I would like to see Juve get into the final solely because Italy hasn't been in the final for 5 or so years iirc.
    OK

    Will watch.
    Don't care who's in it.
    Didn't Munich put like 6 or so on Barca last time they played at Alliance?
    Neither leg is over yet.

    Keeping Italy out of the elite in Euro Football has been a joy in the last few years.

    Some of the BS they have put people through with their boring football their suffering at present needs to go on.


    As for Barca V Bayern

    What a contest for the first 80 mins.

    Shame Bayern are a bit short staffed. Imagine the greater threat they could have posed with Robben Ribery etc. Didn't see the final stat but late in the game Bayern actually had more ball than Barca.

    Shame it didn't finish 1-0 as it would have been a great 2nd leg to look forward to

    deadset though how good was rakitic last night - everyone beating it over messi's goals, rightly so, but rakitic was immense, absolutely gut-busting stuff against a super-duper midfield

    also doesn't look like it's hurt sevilla too much with their whoopin' of fiorentina this morning

    I love this bloke (and Q-man too).

    Not many people realise he's keeping a club legend out of a spot (Xavi) and took over from the bloke they were supposed to build the whole next generation around (Fabregas) at one of the biggest clubs in the world.

    Yet the whole time he's all like "cool cool, I got this".

    Also, as batshit crazy as Alves is, if they don't treat him right with his next deal there will be hell to pay. Players and fans dead set love him.

    Geez, bit harsh.
    Ronaldo had a quiet game (by his standards) but I think Bale is going to wear pretty much all the criticism for this one.

    Which will make Sergio Ramos happy as that bloke has stunk the joint out for ages yet always avoids scrutiny.

    word having it that bale got attacked outside the ground

    really don't get the bale hate

    he's not Ronaldo and he didn't put the price tag on his head for his transfer to Madrid.

    i also think he'd be a much more dominant player if he was in the team without Ronaldo

    if he goes to Man U as rumored he will just walk the competition.
