Like Neville said, football from a different planet. It's just unfair to add Suarez to a team already featuring Messi and Neymar. Barca have to be massive, massive favourites now.

[Redder Lurtz]

Thankfully even if you buy Messi, you'll never evolve as a team to play like that. Shitty.

I've missed you, you big sexy piratey bastard.

[El Rojo]

Kudos to Neymar for that first touch and megging the best goalkeeper in the world.

I reckon Barca would swap Aguero for Neymar. He's good but he's not elite, not quite.

Reckon Neuer is every bit the greatest goalkeeper ever as Messi is the greatest player ever.

[Bjornebye]

Neymar has surely finished the tie. Bayern are weaker since Pep took over IMO, they should have stuck with Heynckes. Pep's Bayern are a pale imitation of his Barca team.

I disagree. And that first half the other week against Porto was on of the most complete halves of footy you will ever see from any side

 

Until Messi got his cock out Bayern were matching Barca and I was starting to think how well they have done. Messi changed everything.

[Lario]

Hasn't he just edged back in front of the Ladyboy for most CL goals?

Yeah. I think this evening was his 100th game and 77th goal.

 

Fucking ridiculous.

Agree with this, even if they were (wonderfully/hopelessly) naive at times, and especially in the final minutes.

 

In terms of intensity and the quality on display that is one of the better matches I've seen. Robben/Ribery might have made it even more interesting, but I suspect Bayern would have struggled a bit more in the centre if they had included both.

I hope he scores a hat-trick, then bites him.  Preferably while making a cryptic comment about "dark meat" or something.

Could have done better on the 1st and 3rd goals I thought.

I partially agree with you, although no shots on target tells a different story.

Not unheard of against Barca. They were playing to a system which was working very well. One poor bit of defending lead to the first goal. After that they capitulated at the back. Id fancy Bayern to win in Munich but not enough to go through.

[Philbert]

El classico final I reckon

wouldn't be so sure, to be honest. Juve look very strong and I'd back them to nab a couple over there. Look at what Schalke did. A Barca / Juve final would be infinitely more interesting and entertaining than a bad-tempered "Classico".

I know you, Tony.  And I know you can do a lot, lot better than that.

It's true, though. Champions League finals contested by teams from the same country are rubbish.

You're undoubtedly correct but the thought of Messi vs. Ronaldo on the biggest (or second biggest) stage of all gives me a little sex wee.

[Special K]

Real v Barca would be the snidiest, ugliest final ever.

[Stickman]

I thought it was just Ashley that took the piss at that club?
