Did you see the quarter-final between Barcelona and Leverkusen? Bayer Leverkusen tried to go toe-to-toe with Barca and got destroyed, and I found that game quite boring because the result was never in doubt. The same could be said about last years UCL final between Barcelona and Man Utd.

I didn't see the leverkusen game, but I would love if every team tried to play like Barca and actually played creative wonderful football. Imagine two really defensive teams playing, how interesting would that be?
I actually thought the semi-finals were not that great, with one team being on the defensive all the time and just waiting for an opportunity. That is not proper football.

But I think the way Barca play probably encourages other teams to approach the game in a defensive (yes defensive, not anti-football :p ) way. In last years Champions League final Manchester United took on Barca by playing a positive 4-4-2 formation yet hardly managed to get out of their own half. United didn't approach the game to defend, they were just forced to defend by Barcelona's dominance.

Excellent view from the new Wolves stand.

That just proves that Barca is by far the best team in the world.
