awesome, bvb and bayern on a different day

you really wanna watch barca destroying psg, this is for me the least exciting game

at least real madrid has a german influence

Maybe its just me, but I think the Barca - PSG tie is very interesting, maybe only after the Juve-Bayern game. Real vs Gala is not that bad either, Drogba & Sneijder have been CL protagonists before.

,

yeah it is just you



i seriously want this line up


-------------neuer
lahm--boateng--dante--alaba
----gustavo
--schweini----kroos

müller---gomez---ribery

gomez was injured, was not even on the bench for the last game, so it`s unlikely, but he is a killer, mandzukic has no quality, only his workrate

martinez is suspended, gustavo never found his form from last season and from this season before his injury, he is always good for an sloopy pass

overall i expect a very tight game

i hope for a 2:0, 1:0 or 0:0

Juve are probably only going to play 1 striker

Buffon; Barzagli, Bonucci, Chiellini; Lichtsteiner, Vidal, Pirlo, Pogba, Peluso; Marchisio; Vucinic.

Bayern-Juve is one of those very rare occasions where I don't watch Messi and Barça (will catch them on delay). WHAT. A. GAME!

And, what problems for Jupp! Will he give another start to his most complete striker who just played a '10' game last weekend or start Mario "I CAN'T SCORE THE MONEY GOALS" Mandzukic?

Decisions...decisions, difficult decisions for Jupp!

FCB: Valdés, Alves, Mascherano, Piqué, Alba, Sergio, Iniesta, Xavi; Villa, Messi, Alexis

PSG: Sirigu, Jallet, Alex, Thiago Silva, Maxwell, Lucas Moura, Beckham, Matuidi, Pastore, Ibrahimovic, Lavezzi

Juventus: Buffon, Chiellini, Peluso, Barzagli, Bonucci, Lichtsteiner, Marchisio, Pirlo, Vidal, Quagliarella, Matri

Bayern: Neuer, Dante, Van Buyten, Lahm, Ribéry, Müller, Alaba, Luiz Gustavo, Schweinsteiger, Kroos, Mandžukić

No Javi Martínez for Bayern so basically they are out.

Beckham

The BBC put my tweet about that on their live text page

If anyone can counteract a high-tempo Barcelona pressing game it's the geriatric in midfield!

The ITV numpties will spend the whole programme wanking over Beckham

Beckham, bloody hell.

I see that van der Wiel mong isn't playing, he slags off Newcastle in the press and he's a fucking reserve player.

Why do ITV keep picking the wrong game? The Bayern - Juve game is much more interesting.

Fey always said he wasn't very good!

Beckham starting amazing

Which one was that? April's fool one? Watching Bayern - Juve on my TV - what an opening by Bayern and Alaba!

Btw, Clattenburg is a referee - can't believe he is getting games like that

Can't believe Beckham is starting. Wouldn't have looked out of place as a headline yesterday.

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH Lavezzi off the post!!!

Alaba scores after 26 seconds. Kroos off injured after 15mins.

it's that time of year again, when I'm reminded what an utter, utter c**t Busquets is.

Barcelona are so vulnerable at the back f*cking hell.

Should've been a penalty for Bayern. Van Buyten was clearly held. Cracking game.

Robben

In Italy it will be called as another master defending by Chiellini.

F*ck you little f*cking dwarf.

Messi (inevitably) scores for Barca. He'd had a shit half up until that point as well. Glorious pass from Alves.

Bayern is on, except for finishing their chances. 9-2 attempts.

Well, twill be a snooze fest from here on out. Will probably watch second half of Bayern-Juve.

Very entertaining game so far. Juventus and their 3-5-2 is struggling to contain Bayern wings, as Bayers uses 2 players on each side to hug line and spreads the ball beatifully to create 2 on 1 situations. Plus Mandzukis is harassing Juventus central midfielders like maniac.
