No football game tonight ladies and gents, just Bayern passing it around like a training game. Only a matter of time before they pass it into the net.
Not so far. Your parking of the bus and odd counter attack have got some results.
Welbeck has got to score one v one with the keeper and his disallowed goal was a bit harsh... the defender is trying to head a ball at waist height!Quote:

Absolutely. These day Manchester United will never outplay Bayern, so these tactics can work. Welbeck should just have slotted the ball home. Not try the Messi scoopQuote:

lucky Atléti :sailor:
1:1 in both games tonight.
Man Utd lucky to still be in the tie but anything can now happen in 90 minutes.
yeah, Courtouis basically kept the tie alive..and they snuck an away goal with a wonderful strike. No attacks apart from that...Bartra did well after being thrust in such a big gameQuote:

As much as I want Man United to win I still want to watch Bayern v Barca....:p
Lucky Bayern :evil:
Barcelona have been given a 2 transfer window ban on bringing in any players.
No new GK, CBs or attackers until Summer 2015.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/26852466
shit. worst possible time for a ban like this.
No Valdes (now I guess he will stay another season? technically he can go I think as he is out of contract, but some loyalty like Buffon showed back in 06 would make him even more of a fan favourite.. I do not want Pinto for a year :eek: )
No Puyol? same story again.
and worse...no new central defender, another year of Mascherano mess-ups, sluggist Cesc and Alexis (his good form this yr would have made it easy to sell him :p: )
I think this guarantees Deulofeu coming back though which should be good. They need a shake-up in the front 3. Tello needs to play more!

Double balls @ Dortmund :dozey:
:hmph:
Lyon - Juve: 0 - 1 @ Forgotten League
West Ham 1-2 Liverpool. 5 to go and still on top. Huge game this weekiend when Man City turn up at Anfield.
win that and its yours to win or lose
It is ours to win or lose now. If city hypothetically win their 2 games in hand they have a 2 point lead, so if we beat them we would be 1 point ahead. Lose on Saturday, and it is a battle for second with Chelsea.Quote:

great game, and Dortmund were so unlucky not to score the 3rd goal :(
chelsea with a late goal went through too... :\
with tonight's matches open, we could have a potential clasico semi - or a madrid derbi or chelsea v real or mou v pep
semis should be fun...but first up
força barça!
that Mkhitaryan made me cry
if only those chances had fallen to Lewandowski, we might have been crying with joy :p:Quote:

Barca already down :s
Messi did a donkey :s
I hope Barca wake up
Amazing goal by Evra, United leads Bayern
And now Mandzukic, so now Bayern-United 1-1
Müller gives lead to Bayern...but isn't over yet !
Robben scores 3rd for Bayern, so bye bye United !
big fat donkey balls :dozey:
oh well, at least it's la leti :bandit:
I think Messi needs to leave Barca. I have been on the Barcelona Forum tonight and the hate he is getting is unreal.
I mean I know his was awful tonight and last week, but really some of those fans don't deserve him. He would be better freshening his career elsewhere.
Barca as a whole need a rebuild, but with the transfer ban, its not happening any time soon.
Sad days
Messi needs to refresh and perhaps a good World Cup run would be the best for all concerned...this season is fast unravelling for Barca.He was very poor though last night, giving away the ball so many times..Alves almost made me pull my hair out with some of his passing/defending (if we can call it that)
yeah no transfers is really going to hurt and a thought came to me, that perhaps no big coach will come until the transfer ban goes away. Also Luis Enrique is the chosen one after Tata goes - which might be soon if we lose the Liga as well as Copa next week.
My hope - Masche, Song, Alves, Cesc, Alexis out
Xavi to retire at the end of next year - Give Sergi Roberto a bigger chance along with Deulofeu, Tello and perhaps Bojan comes back too.
When buying players - a good central defender (Kompany/Hummels), a strong midfielder (Gundogan) and a proper #9 as a plan B or even a plan A in some cases (good in the air and strong - Dzeko?Mandzukic?)
Messi (although he has scored boat loads of goals as a falso 9, should think long and hard what is best for the team - for a team setup well defensively, he just does not get the space and time to do his magic)
The best attack Barca had in the recent past was Etoo, Henry and Messi (on the right wing) and he still scored tonnes.
Barca era is over, they need to build a new squad, and a new coach. Won't be easy, good luck ;)
Well... Go Atletico! I really hope they win both La Liga and the Champions League.
