Barcelona drawing against Milan...got a bad feeling about this one, Bayern pretty much through, cannot wait for the Real - Bayern showdown in the semis.

I'm sure Barcelona, being in the situation they are in the league, will up their game for the Camp Nou match. Plus Milan shouldn't be as effective defensively away, plus they need to score as well.

Bayern will do their utmost to get to the final, but a host winning the final hasn't happened since 64-65...

Yeah, they won't get away with some of their fouling and penalty decisions at the Camp Nou, i just get the feeling Milan will defend with their lives again and nick a goal at the other end, i hope i'm wrong though.

It might be, but in terms of philosophy or gamestyle they aren't really a defensive team. Also, despite having some old wolves in there, there's also a lot of inexperienced players at this level. Of course it might happen, this is football. But it won't be like Inter 2 years ago.

City's ego will cost them the title IMO.

Apparently it was an allergic reaction to a pain killing foot spray, City are really blowing it here though, they've got Arsenal next week, looks like another year where an average United team will take the trophy, says alot for the Premier League's quality (in terms of the top teams, anyway).

^It's more to do with teams shitting themselves as they are Man Utd. Nearly every team other then the other big ones play such defensive football against them that they hand them the game.

Look at their squad other then the big guns like Rooney none of their players would stand out in any other team in the Premiership.

Care to explain? I always discuss games just as I do football. I'd call myself a football fan just like I would call myself a fan of video games.

Go look at you post in gaming thoughts of the day. Just because a person like a sci fi show learns a real language or sports the tag gamer and is proud of it does not justify looking down on it. It's no different than sports fans. But sports fans like to downplay it as "nerds". Also as a resident football fan who also post in a football forum I say the same to them. Also check the vid that was posted. People are who they are and just because they may not like watching or doing a certain thing masses tell us is normal and ok does not mean another isn't.
