[Arn]

All Thanks to Rafa and Arncelloti

Hope Dortmund win the final, Dortmund

Barca have been really poor lately, clearly on the decline these last couple of seasons. They're not gong to reach the heights of the last 5/6 years anytime soon, Pep left at the right time.

You know Pep was only at Barca for 4 years. The last 3 seasons excluding this one, is when they were head and shoulders above anyone else in the World. Pep did leave at the right time though, but you can't help but feel this decline wouldn't have been as fast with him still there. Tito needs to build his own team. At the moment it's still Peps side.

Although having said all that, Messi is still having an absolute stonker of a season. Even with the injury.

Bloody hell.

Hope Dortmund win the final, Dortmund

Can't see bayern cocking it up this time

Big mistake leaving Messi on the bench IMO. There was no way Barca were going too do it without him and it must have gave Bayern a massive lift when they saw the team sheet.

Thats what they do best. I expect Dortmund to win IMO

[Arn]

Barcelona will do everything they can to sign Neymar in the summer even if he would cost them £50m IMO.

They will spend, spend, spend.

Bayern have won 42 out of 49 games this season.

Might just be me, but I'm pretty sure the Bayern fans where singing the cracking up song in English?

[Leyton388]

Dortmund and Bayern is the system Liverpool and Rodgers should be looking at. Not this Tikki Takka ****e. Tikki Takka just had its arse handed too it. I love German football its fantastic.

I heard them singing "footballs coming home"

So we should play like we did with Rafa then?

We didn't played it as good as Bayern do now. They have world class players in every position. We didn't have that.

Tiki Taka may have won the word cup and euro's but they were not convincing throughout any of the tournements. The German football now harks back to the great dominance of Munich, Ajax, and Liverpool in the 70s/80's I love it. Total Football.

Not surprised really that Bayern and Dortmund play the way they do.

The best teams playing style get copied. They copied the way we played. In a couple of years time a few top clubs will play the way Barcelona do.

Happens in almost every team sport out there.
