The Champions League Final, 23 May 2007

Rematch

Armageddon.

English Student, because it's not just that. It's Old World vs. the New Riches, if that makes any sense.

rematch
Armageddon
The English Student
The Final Showdown

i would love for milan to get revenge. other then that man utd liverpool would be hyped so much and would be so big in england so even though i dont consider it a big match i would follow on hype.

the final showdown or the english student.

just as long as pool arnt involved.

*cough* bitter

Armageddon

or in Greek - Αρμαγεδδώνας

The final showdown.

The "happy" English Student scoring the winning goal

For a variety of reasons:
- very european game
- no all-english final
- milan not winning anything
- chelsea deserve it!

The 'Rematch' without any doubt. Istanbul was the worst night of my football life, and a travesty. It hangs over this club. It needs to be put right.

The rematch of course, we've got two straightforward battles between good and evil going on here.

The sick thought that is the "final showdown" ought to be boycotted if it happens.

I choose The English Student, despite it having an overly quaint name suggestive of some poor romance story. I dont want an all English final just because such wouldnt feel like the Champions League final anymore, which means Milan need to go through ahead of Man Utd, but Chelsea are the only one of the English teams I can bear anyway. And the more I hear people in England generally moan about Mourinho and give him a lack of credit, the more I would like Chelsea to succeed. Though I wouldnt mind so much who won out of Milan or Chelsea, and I actually think that could be the most interesting final with the best football.

@Basch

We have played the best football in Europe this season and as much as you dont want an all English final, if you do actually want to see good football in the CL final, you need united to be there.

Yeah, cos the original match before the "rematch" was shite, wasn't it...

Lightning doesnt strike twice, what are the odds of the game ending 3-3, 50-1 or something.

However it would be the funniest thing ever in football, if Milan went 3-0 up at half time and then went on to lose again.

Milan should be innit. if not we have another $h!t final

Ricardo what makes you say another rubbish final, what all English CL final have you seen to compare the potential 2007 all English final to? Milan were involved in the worst final in CL history, so there is more evidence to suggest that if Milan reached the final, it would be rubbish, than there is to suggest an all English final (containing the most exciting team in Europe) would be rubbish

An all English final is just terrible and won't watch that game then! two similar teams, similar support is not preferable imo!

Rezzie...

BTW To me the Final was already played! Man U - Milan! That was football!


TWOoney - 2xKa was brilliant stuff!

Ric: Swansea City?!?!?!?!?!

He he....

The owner is a real Haagse Harry a real Matje

Cool thread.

Armageddon

The devils win this armageddon though.

This will end the debate who is the best team in England then! And a small riot as a desert wont be to bad as well. And this board would go mental as well, I guess..

Rez, I agree that Man Utd have played the best football this season, but like I say, I dont want an all English final and I dont think a game between Man Utd and any of the other two would be that interesting or good to watch, from a Champions League final perspective or from a football one. Man Utd vs Chelsea matches might have a high tempo and a lot of action, but they dont tend to involve the best football. Both Milan and, to a lesser degree and depending on their team, Chelsea, are able to play decent football, and theyd at least be a combination I havent seen for a while.

The REMATCH of course!

FORZA MILAN!!!

3-0 Milan, 12 mins to go.

We're 90% certain at this point to have The Rematch.
