Topic: 2012/13 UEFA Champions League Final - Bayern München 2-1 Borussia Dortmund

[Anywhichwayicant]

Barca were woeful. I felt sorry for Pique.

Told you mate 

[Ray K]

Good as they were tonight - and they were pretty awesome - I'm still annoyed at Bayern for bottling last year's final though. The fucking twats.

[loozy]

It's Germany they love that shit.

No, we don't 

[Po The Panda]

Just waiting for a Utd fan to ring into talk sport and say they would beat Bayern if they were still in this!

[Camarero25]

It's not that for me mate, I like Bayern and the way they play, have done for the last couple of years.

I like Barca too, but it is nice to see different teams winning the thing.

For me some of it is just too over the top from one game. And I also think it's ridiculous to overlook that two goals shouldn't have stood.

Is it one game though?

Bayern have been amazing all season. They simply strangled the life out of the Italian Champions as well.

They're a fucking machine.

[1892tillforever]

Don't like Bayern that much but slightly prefer them to Madrid. Anyway, what a performance! Full of energy, power, skill, determination. That was damn near perfection in all honesty and even though people say Barca are diminished and whatnot, no one should be twatting them 4-0, simply sublime.

Now on to the burning question of the evening: What the fuck is the point of those idiot linesman behind the goals? What do they actually do besides looking like dopey c*nts?
How has he not seen the most blatant body check you're ever likely to see when it's happened about 5 yards from him?

Unbelievable that Tito didn't change it until the 80th minute, was clear at half time Pedro was having a nightmare, Barca could have done with Mascherano Fabregas and Puyol today, someone with some fight rather than half of the team who played today who just wait for Messi and Iniesta to come up with something magic. Honestly never seen so many passengers in a team Pedro, Alba, Sanchez are all fucking spineless when it comes to needing an impact. At least we've found a team worse at defending set pieces than us. Maybe we are following Barcas model too closely in trying to emulate their shite defending. Bayern remind me of us when we play at our best. This display was very similar to us in the Champions League under Rafa when we didn't let teams have a sniff and attacked wave after wave. Fair play to Bayern but Barca were so disappointing.

[The 1989 Brit Awards]

Only Bayern generate enough money to be able to buy and hold on to the best players.

Dortmund keep losing theirs and this is part of the reason. Lewandowski and Reus will be gone within one or two years for more lucrative contracts either in Bayern or England/Spain.

They are getting 38 big ones for Götze and they're not in debt or anything. I'd say Klopp will spend that wisely.

[loozy]

There is an easier way, join a nomadic tribe in Africa for a couple of years then come back. Wankfest free guaranteed

Jaysus, I really must be pissing people off; one of you wants me to die in the Allian Arena and now you want me to go on a mad trip...

Sorry if I'm being annoying... 

[Earl of Dingleberry]

You're getting kind of scary with your dolls here... Don't you want to open a thread about all the dolls you seem to have collected?

No I don't want, because I don't have any dolls, just can use google image search.

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

Xxavi = Xavi? 

Nope xxavi = the barca fan who posts on here. Sorry to hear about your mojo mofo 

[Camarero25]

A lot of people on here have a soft spot for Barca and everything to do with Spain.

I like Barca and Spain a lot myself, but that performance from Bayern was ridiculous.

[Anywhichwayicant]

Over to you, he who fannies about and dives around.

[elpistolero7]

So ummm where does Mr Jupp Heynckes go from here? The treble is so fucking on for them. Anything less and Pep's a flop 

[1892tillforever]

Good as they were tonight - and they were pretty awesome - I'm still annoyed at Bayern for bottling last year's final though. The fucking twats.

Indeed, where the hell was THIS Bayern Munich team in last year's final? It would have been glorious humiliation for the Chelsea instead of victory 

[Anywhichwayicant]

Take off your Iniesta jersey, and we can all be friends again, Loozy.

[loozy]

Nope xxavi = the barca fan who posts on here. Sorry to hear about your mojo mofo 

I know that  I'm not that daft  However, Xavi also always complains about stuff after a match did not go Barca's way... Was just making fun...

What does mofo mean?

[Buck Pete]

Barca were woeful. I felt sorry for Pique.

Me too until I see him in a magazine driving a Ferrari with Shakira sitting next to him

[The 1989 Brit Awards]

Luckly there are ones like us that are the opposite!

[1892tillforever]

The final is really theirs to lose. They are better than both Dortmund and Madrid and the only thing that stops them IMO is being haunted by last year's final.

[loozy]

No I don't want, because I don't have any dolls, just can use google image search.

Still, a strange fixation you have there, mate. Did your parents not allow you to have dolls when you were a child?

[Hoenheim]

Jaysus, I really must be pissing people off; one of you wants me to die in the Allian Arena and now you want me to go on a mad trip...

Sorry if I'm being annoying... 

Not at all, but if is going to be a 100% german final the wankfest will be unbearable, might as well skip the whole shabang following my suggestion.

[Cattive Maniere]

[loozy]

I still have to earn money and I doubt my fiancé's going to be happy if I take off shortly before the wedding and leave him sitting on the costs  Me neither, btw  But thanks for the suggestion...

Just googled flights to Ireland; prices are alright, depending on tomorrow's first leg, I might book a flight 

[DerKaiser]

I swear if I see a wanker with his new Bayern kit on in the city centre tomorrow I'll choke him. I have a feeling we will see a new breed of glory hunter.

[whtwht]

 

Luckly there are ones like us that are the opposite!

I like both so  FUUUUUU 

[El Lobo]

Massacre.

You can't slate Barca, they've been trounced but they're walking La Liga and they've had some big obstacles in their way this season. Need a new CB and a new striker and then we'll see who the new wankfests are over. Having a full time manager would help too, unfortunate as his situations been.

[mikey_LFC]

Yeah really lucky of us to have people who for no apparent reason can't enjoy watching Barcelona, one of the great European teams. I'm always so thankful to have people irrationally hating great teams because of the huge rivalry we have with teams like Barca, Bayern and Real. Thank you so much.

[stoa]

Never really seen a good argument as to how German teams can compete for the best players yet charge fairly low prices in to games for the fans.  Some mention they pull in a lot commercially to make up for the lack of gate money in comparison to English gate money but I fail to see how the likes of Munich and Dortmund would be way ahead of UTD and Liverpool for example around the globe in commercial income generation.

Not that hard to understand really. Dortmund aren't really in for the "best" players as they can't/don't really want to afford them. They have a stadium that holds 80.000 people and manage to sell that out most of the time. They have built a team with very little money and have been lucky in terms of scouting and in terms of having a lot of talented players in their youth-teams. The question is whether they can keep up selling their best players for big money and replacing them with cheaper ones. There has to be something about their scouting, but I don't think they're that far ahead in terms of making money.

With Bayern it's even easier. They've been the number one club for 30 years now in Germany. There is not a single club that is even close to them in terms of their drawing power. They profitted a lot from having the Olympia Stadium which held 77.000 people at the best times and a little bit over 60.000 when Bayern last played there. They got to play there but didn't have to pay for building it. An advantage other clubs haven't had. But the most important factor is Uli Hoeneß and whoever was in charge with him. Because Bayern are a very well run club and they have made the most of all their success and have built on that.

Haha just in case you thought I was saying that about the man himself.

Mofo is a slang insult but meant in a joking way. So if you've never heard it before its pretty awkward if someone says it to you like I just did ....

Yep, they will only strengthen imo.

[Earl of Dingleberry]

I just want to help you to expand your collection. Mertesacker feels lonely, don't you think?

[Passmaster Molby]

What was it Brendan said, if you have 67% of the ball you are 90% likely to win the game or something like that? Hmmm........

Bayern were fucking awesome - they play football the way it should with strength, pace, power and skill when its needed. The total package!

[Buck Pete]

Did Roy just say Real shoud beat Dortmund?

Madrid MAY beat Dortmund, but SHOULD? come on Roy FFS!!

[HighSix]

Its hard to criticise Tito Vilanova after the year he has had but that was shocking in game management.... out of his depth or players running the club?

[Earl of Dingleberry]

I swear if I see a wanker with his new Bayern kit on in the city centre tomorrow I'll choke him. I have a feeling we will see a new breed of glory hunter.

If it's a Robben shirt, kick him as well.

[whtwht]

Madrid MAY beat Dortmund, but SHOULD? come on Roy FFS!!

Well with Ronaldo i expect them too

[loozy]

Too lazy to google it right now, send me a PM because I am curious nonetheless and not talking to my friends at the moment... They are singing Stern des Südens right now...

I hate them right now 

Might also call in sick to work tomorrow, my pupils will be unbearable... I can already see my desk being decorated in Bayern-stuff...

[Sir Psycho Sexy]

What was it Brendan said, if you have 67% of the ball you are 90% likely to win the game or something like that? Hmmm........

No he said something like 70% possession = 70% chance of winning the game.

Which is utter bollocks.
