Madrid will definitely win the final. Should they get there.

Hope it doesn't end up as a Real Barca final

That would be brilliant in my opinion.

I reckon Madrid could take them as well if they have a fully fit squad.

It's probably what most people want to see but I'd prefer some variety. Seen enough el Classicos for this season

Tony Montana

Seen enough of Bayern. Hate them. Always have.

Rex

Why do you hate Bayern?

Patters

Who does everyone fancy for the trophy now?

y va marquer

Madrid I reckon.

I grew up hating Germany in football because I support England. That spread to Bayern, the United of German Football.

Then they beat us in 05 and this season and that hasn't helped. Then the one time I want them to win they lose at home to Chelsea.

I'm impressed by their professionalism and youth system.

Ironically, I'd like to visit Germany now to check it out.

I think I want Dortmund to in it

Mirth

I definitely want Dortmund to win it.

Clrnc

Dortmund would be very pleasing, cant really see them beating Barca though?

Juve is soooo overrated

It would prove that a club like Arsenal can win it despite the odds.

We're not as good as them but our size is more like theirs than Barca's.

Rather them than Juve in a potential final though. Say what you want about Bayern but they don't dope up their players and they don't buy referees. Juventus is one of the worst clubs in the history of the game, and that fact should not be overlooked just because they have many current players some of us admire. There's no way I would ever cheer for them.

Weren't you singing their praises?

Juve aren't overrated for the record. No more so than United and Real are, at least. But they're not set up to win a knockout competition either.

I always thought you quite liked them.

Yeah Juve are crooks. I wrote a piece on them years on A-M. They also have a huge number of fans in Italy. Even United don't have as many in England as Juve do in Italy.

They were bankrolled by the Agnelli family for years which many people don't know.

Mirth

I like the Juventus team, but that club is scummy. It's shame because they've had some fantastic players down the years.

Klaus

I can't stand them. I just admire certain players they happen to employ.

The funny thing about their fans is that most of them are living in other cities. There's always a strong away support but they're playing for half-full stands every week in Turin. Boggles the mind, it does. I think the Agnelli family still owns the club through one of their investment companies, by the way.

Timbob

3 of the semi finalists the same as last year. Barca, Madrid and Bayern are some way ahead at the minute.

Not me, havent really rated them this season, especially in UCL. They had more than their fair share of luck against Celtic tbf.

I like what I seen from Bayern more. Rated them so much I was surprised we even got to away goals against them.

I think to some extent Bayern were switched off and complacent when we played that second leg.
They were very arrogant in a lot of their post match commentary after the first leg.
Such a pity we couldn't make them really pay
