Only if Messi plays a match that will be remembered for many years to come does Barca have a chance to progress.

So ill go for Inter with Sneijder.

i also go with inter mailand.
esspecially after i know that maurinho is a friend from van gaal since maurinhio was the co-coach from van gaal in BARCELONA .
it will be great to see both coaches in final ,with sneijder and robben back in MADRID .
that will be awesome.
also i will not that BARCA is the first team where win CL twice in a row !!

when inter can hold the "catenacco " closed in first 30 minutes they have best chances to reach the final

i think the chance for barcelona is a early goal and a MESSI in gala form .
it will be a very intense match at all .

my vote is 2-1

BTW: bayern goes into protest in case RIBERY .
our manager meant we use all possible instance to examine this wrong judgement from UEFA :
a 3 match penalty is way to much-for his attack !!
it was a hard foul but not a assault to injuring lizandro lopez
i hope forward RIBERY can play in final!!!

Poor decision by DeBleeckere there, goal should have stand. Awful but understandable play by Inter.
Hopefully Bayern wins in Madrid, but 1st prediction is that Robben will get injured in that match.

inded it was horrible to watch what inter played in this match.
the total catenaccio with 11 defenders.

i was afraid about before the match started.
after MOTTAS red card it was the pure horror to watch the match -
no intense to play forward over the middle line -only defense ,defense ,defense . horror pur .

on the other side it was very clever from inter
mean they leaded 3-1
and messi and co find no way to break inters defense .
the goal in minute 92 was regular in my opinion!!

however now we must play about inter mailand in final.
i think inter is easier to play for BAYERN than barcelona

robben is much more robust than in chelsea and madrid coz van gaal give him allways time to regenerate when he is short before a injuring !!!
why you think robben got injured in final ?

Although the 'handball' goal should've counted bojan should've taken his earlier chance so can't complain to much. What makes it even sadder is that anti football won :( Oh well next year.

I don't mind that Inter went through to the final. I'm a fan of Mourinho's ever since he won the CL with Porto and also with the success he had at Chelsea.

Inter played negative football, yes, and even though their intention from the outset was set out to be defensive, I feel that that became a moot point and their hand was forced in any case after that red card. To play 10 v 11 against Barca and try to make beautiful football, is not only impossible but sheer lunacy.

Regarding the Ribery red card, as I have stated here previously, a straight red card is hardly ever only a one game suspension. So from that point of view I'm not surprised at all that his ban has been extended to include his missing the final.
Anyway, hopefully for Bayern's sake their appeal towards Ribery's suspension might just be successful. It's always more appealing to watch a big final with all the big stars involved.

no doubt about inter mailand make that very clever -
esspecially after the red card for motta.
i meant it was totally unalluring (unatractive) to watch the match coz they had zero intension to go over the middle line into the barca side .

yeah i can also understand your viewing in case ribery .
its difficult for uefa to give ribery only a 1 match suspension after a red card for a hard foul -
at all it was no intensional assault to injuring lopez .(can´t better explain in english)
this is our chance !!

i personallity think that the red card must count like a hand on the goalline to avoid a goal. (this kind of red card is a 1 match suspension.)

maybe ribery was little to aggressive coz his sex affair .who knows ??

i hope the uefa amnesty RIBERY - but to be honest .......i think the protest will have not much chances for success .
at most i like that our club fight for RIBERY< during all instances.

i´m totally with you that in a final is better when the best players from each team can play in FINAL .
and with ribery our team is more better than without ribery !!
we will see what happens

the cool thing is ....
we can make the triple this year
we are in final by....
CHAMPIONSLEAGUE - DFB pokal - and short before to be the german bundesliga champion !!

Honestly,Mourinho just shew young Pep how we play TACTICAL!
I will never understood why Guardiola took his big guy off (Ibra) to send his lilliputians (Jeffren,Bojan,...)
It was clearly impossible to play but Guardiola still had hope for "Barça style of play" : Wonderfful styleplay and all...No way!But,as old school generals,he choosed to die with his ideas...

I like that final!It smells Football History! :)

By the way!
Nice choice by Eto'o!!! :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:
He's now able to win 2 Champion's League in a row!
How much did Ibra cost?...How the hell could they let Eto'o go?...He was perfect for Barça (30 or more goals by seasons...) :?

i thought the same-
as he changed ibrahimo out ,i thought.....thats a mistake.
okay ibrahimovich had not his best day at yesterday - but about inters defending system you need crusher like ibrahimo!!
maybe he thought barca can break the catenaccio with 2 more fast dwarfes in the short passing system!??.

i really hope for a big final with bayern as winner :wink:

Well, I'm not watching much football, and haven't got a clue how Robben evolved at Bayern, but he used to be very injury prone. Combine that with the way Inter play and there is your (his) injury. I hope he won't be injured, we need him in South Africa.

Just a deserved mention to Fulham for making the Europa League Final.
They're a hard working squad and their manager- Roy Hodgson- is a very good tactician and very experienced manager.

I also see that Liverpool lost out to Atletico Madrid on the away goals rule.
On the whole this has been just a miserable season for 'Pool and I wouldn't be at all surprised if Benitez is not there for next season. He has only relatively recently signed an extension to his Liverpool contract and they will probably have to pay him a significant amount if they were to sack him, but there are incessant rumours that he'll probably be off to Juventus next season. Let's see how that plays out.
