    So it’s

    Barcelona v Athletico Madrid
    Real Madrid v Dortmund
    PSG v Chelsea
    Man Utd v Bayern

    PSG are very good but Chelsea have a great chance especially as they’ll be away first leg!

    Barca/Athletico and Real/Dortmund look the pick of the ties, United got a very tough draw.

    I’ll take a shot that UTD do very little with the small possession they’ll receive tonight and back Munich to win to nil at 6/4.

    Atletico Madrid could be a team to watch out for, 100% record in all competitions so far. Look like a solid well organised team who will be tough to crack, all over Madrid the other day away from home in the derby.

    Edit – I thought they would be around 12’s or 14’s but they are double that, I wouldn’t have any English clubs ahead of them on quality.

    Regardless of how they Atletico get on in the final, that post back in September was a great call.

    You have to feel sorry for ‘The Special Moaner’…….not. :mrgreen:

    whine, whinge, moan, groan just go and take a run up the touchline, have a chat with the corner flag and calm down. :twisted:

    With the La Liga in the bag for Atletico the pressure will be all on Real tonight.
    Looking forward to this.

    Admittedly Real Madrid look far superior than Atletico on paper, but on the pitch, in reality, I think they’re closely matched.

    Xabi Alonso is a massive loss for Real imo. He bring vision and a range of passing not only for himself but also for the centre halves and whoever is near him in midfield. Every match you see him dictating things from the centre circle, communicating with the defenders and pointing at where the ball should go. Hopefully Atletico can get the job done, it will be a very different match to the semi final games with Real and Bayern, because it’s likely Real will have a lot more of the ball this time around and won’t be afforded the same space.

    For 93 minutes Atletico’s game plan execution was spot-on, turned ugly when their legs gave in.
