Right now I'm just enjoying the comments of some certain posters here
against arsenal. in the bundesliga.... i dont know without looking lol
Me?
Barca's/Pep's tactics have been found out. It's like when Arsenal went through a period a 2/3 years ago when Man Utd and Chelsea would just batter them every game they played, in the same way. The warning signs for Barca were there when Milan beat them 2-0 earlier this season and then Madrid's B-team beat them as well (no excuse that Messi wasn't fit for those games).
Teams now know how to play against Barca's tactics and when the really good teams effectively execute the counterplan then Barca have no answer.
Barca needs to evolve

It was apt enough tbh.
One of them won something, but is clearly an inferior manager
You have to use your eyes and watch a lot to come to the conclusion that the one with the inferior season-by-season result is superior, but its clearly true to anyone with half a brain
Me?
na, you're cool, mate!

No, you're awesome. I think he is talking about the Dortmund guys. Although I don't mind them. Apart from their irriational love for Dortmund they are fine, too.
We're still in that period.
:'(
You're absolutely right though. Barcelona are too predictable—their game plan is pass the ball to Messi. Messi only scored like ~30% of their goals when they won the treble, and even in 10/11 he "only" scored half their goals.
Pep's Barca were up against a Madrid side that were destroying pretty much every team in the League last year. This year Madrid have been far less effective and the defence of their title has been as pitiful as City's this season.
3 finals in 4 years. Wonderful achievement for Bayern. Have to take your hat off to them. A wonderful club with a rich history and now all but confirmed as the best team in Europe - with good potential to dominate for the next 2 or 3 years.
I will be hoping Dortmund win in the final but if Bayern do win, which I think they will, they'll have fully deserved it. No silly antics along the way. Just good football and good fans.
United have a long way to go
Don't worry about this mangole. Was just thinking today although we're not up to the quality of the two finalists, we have the same spirit as them; every player fighting for the team, RVP making goal line clearances, Rooney in midfield, everyone happy as larry when the team is winning.
And that's just as important as quality. We have the best manager in the game, we're the best domestic team around, and on paper we only need one or two top buys to compete properly. It won't happen :lol, but keep the faith my love.
Congratulations Bayern. Like Viva I will be cheering for Dortmund in the final, but Bayern are an absolutely wonderful team and any win will be richly deserved.
I think they will win too.

while bayern are a much more complete and well balanced team than us at the moment, i feel like we have much more of chance of competing than we did a couple of seasons back at the height of this current barca team. it was hard to imagine us getting close then, now i think it's way more open for us and all the top european teams going into next season (especially with bayern changing manager).

That young ZDF guy is really great.
Heynckes with a smug grin on the face: "We saw this season that Dortmund can't compete in all of the Bundesliga, Cup and CL."
ZDF guy: "But that won't help you in the final."
Heynckes: "..."

Imagine the awkwardness for Gotze next season.Can you guys feel it coming?
yeah that was great.
Are you kidding?
euheuheuheuheuheuheuhe
Buyern has been channeling our hate for the whole season. It's the only reason why they are so strong now. Dortmund will get crushed.

On the off-chance that you're being serious, Rodgers is blatantly a better manager than Kenny, and Kenny was better for us than Hodgson. It may not pan out statistically, or even in terms of trophies (yet) but its obvious. I can't be bothered to go further into this, I've wasted enough minutes of my life arguing with friends who thought that Hodgson wasn't given enough time at Liverpool and the fans wanted him out from day 1

Götze isnt Ballack though!
Barca-GAF....I really don't know what to say. These guys slaughtered you, made you look worse than a Segunda Division B team. Though you threatened a bit in the first half it wasn't enough and you really didn't have any clear chances. To be fair you had some unlucky injuries in the defense + Messi gone so that definitely changed things but wow......it only goes to show further how dependent you are on Messi. Overall I think your CL campaign has been bad (and to be fair Madrid was not all that great either but better considering our opponents) and you definitely did not deserve to go to the final. Even Valencia did better in the group stages and that says lots. Malaga seem to be the one who put most passion of us four this CL.
Barca-GAF is still awesome, hope this defeat will wake up the guys at Barca and make them do some really big changes and some good transfers. But man....0-7.....this is going to be talked for months....forget that, for years. Suddenly I'm not so sad about the Madrid loss yesterday, this seems way harder to take :lol.
Sorry Barca-GAF, the remuntada was simply not with you today
Congrats Bayern. Fuck Bayern, Forza Dortmund!
PL > Bundeslol > La Liga
Arsenal > Bayern > Barca
Arsenal = best team in the world.
will read through rest of the thread later.

I went easy Messi
Messi, if you use that avatar I'll have to put you on my ignore list
also Henyckes statement is false. It is not like Dortmund lost in the first cup round and is tenth in the Bundesliga. They lost in the quarter finals against Bayern and can still get over 70 points in the Bundesliga

If this IS the "end" for Barca, this version of Barca anyway - they were the best team I've ever seen. The football for a couple of years was truly stunning.
But things change and they've been left behind a bit over the last 12 months. Let's see how they respond.

Gotze own goal.Can you guys feel it coming?
Muahaha
Another interesting tidbit. Barca when they get knocked out, do so to the eventual winners. At least that's been the case in the last 5-6 seasons.
Man Utd, Inter, Chelsea, Bayern?

When is the German Cup final?
One week after the CL final!
1st june
4-2-3-1 Messi (free role) behind D. Villa. New CB and GK.
I find it amazing that this current Barcelona side has lost 7-0 on aggregate. They seemed almost invincible under Pep.
In a way though, I'm kind of glad there isn't a Spanish team in the final.
He's going to force them to make 50 passes sideways and backwards before some jerk dribbles it into the net.
Take it up with him. Rules are rules and I could give a fuck about United or the EPL

It's not over(imo). Terrible defending this season has cost us. Thiago Silva + Hummels. Puyol back. Abidal healthy hopefully. A goalkeeper.
Messi is still 25, as long as he remains fit, we will be competitive for a while.
The come back season is on next year.
Remuntada.
