Just finished watching the second leg of the semi final Real Madrid vs. Bayern Munich. So pumped already.

Biggest game of the year.

Hearing Malouda's out. Sucks that he got injured in the most meaningless game of the season

ESPN columnist Miguel Delaney now says there is a chance Paulo Ferreira could start and not Ryan Bertrand. #cfc

Uh... wtf is going on?

Are we thinking

Drogba
Kalou-Mata-Bosingwa
Cole-Luiz-Cahill-Ferreira
Cech

Di Matteo is trying to build a Portugese connection with the refs. :wavefinger:

70 minutes to go. Can't wait.

What's up with Sturridge?

Chelsea (officiel): Cech, Cole, Bosingwa, Luiz, Cahill, Bertrand, Lampard, Mikel, Mata, Drogba, Kalou.

Bayern: Neuer - Lahm, Tymoshchuk, Boateng, Contento - Kroos, Schweinsteiger - Robben, Müller, Ribéry - Gomez

same formations

Post #1329 » by **5DOM** » Sat May 19, 2012 5:40 pm

Bayern: Butt, van Buyten, Rafinha, Usami, Pranjic, Petersen, Olic.
Chelsea: Turnbull, Ferreira, Essien, Romeu, Malouda, Torres, Sturridge.

lol at chelsea playing with 2 left backs (bertrand?), are they so scared of robben and lahm? lame tactic.

and bayern very offensive but they don't have any real alternatives. basically they play with 4 strikers, 1.5 offensive midfielders in central midfield and 1 central midfielder as centre back. lol. contento is super inexperienced and sucks anyway. i don't know, i really don't know man....

In German tv they just said Sturridge is not part of the subs. :dontknow:

Bertrand's one of our fastest players outside Ramires, and defends much better than Sturridge and Torres. Not an easy decision because of his inexperience but think it makes sense tactically with Malouda not 100%

Hopefully Bayern batters those plastic rentboys!

I want Chelsea to win just so Tottenham doesn't get to play in the Champions League next year.

LOL our president Joachim Gauck is being interviewed, and he says "of course I want FCB to win, and let's hope Bayern's defenders can stop Drogba".

Not the most stupid guy around

If Bayern is trailing in the last 5 minutes, we at least know who is going to be subbed in

Apparently Ballack's predicted 4-0 Bayern win :curse:

Hopefully we concede much less

Post #1339 » by **LittleOzzy** » Sat May 19, 2012 6:40 pm

I'm predicting 2-0 Bayern.

El Turco · Post #1340 » by **El Turco** » Sat May 19, 2012 6:42 pm

3-2 bayern.
