So, the CL final will be between 2 big bottlers of European football. All the pressure will be on Bayern since they will be playing at home. I think Chelsea already have one hand on trophy.
 
Bayern are not as good as Madrid, but they do have the home advantage, so it doesn't matter that much.

Also, I honestly think that the referees would be in favour of Bayern. First of all because they're the home team. Second, UEFA surely doesn't want Chelsea to win. If a team which can't even secure a CL spot in the premiership wins the trophy itself without 5 players, it would somewhat undermine the importance and prestige of this cup. And we all know that referees prefer Barca, so that means that referees are advised to support the better teams probably, as shameful as it is.

Bottom line is, I don't see Chelsea winning this one. On the other hand, however, I didn't see them winning Barca either...

Undoubtedly

Read an article recently how number of Madrid fans would never warm up to Mourinho even after winning La Liga, etc. due to his counter-attacking / semi negative style of play. They simply cannot accept that as the 'Real Madrid way' hence the animosity.

Second half yesterday they played like Stoke at times - sitting back and lumping forward, etc. Mind-boggling considering they were at home, the quality of players on the field and the fact Ribery was struggling to impose his presence. Very poor all-round

Sporting blitzed them in the second half last week.....for all the plaudits that Bielsa and his teams receive, i have to say Sporting looked a class apart in the second half especially and their football was far superior to Bilbao's

Bilbao started the better, and took a deserved lead and were unlucky not to add another. However, the game swung dramatically after Lisbon pulled back a goal. Towards the end, Sporting were getting every loose ball and Bilbao looked extremely uncomfortable. Amazing how a football match can toss and turn.

I was really impressed by Bilbao in dumping Man Utd out of the competition, and at home, I think they are going to get the job done. Alot of what Sporting did was roared on by the home crowd, which gave them encouragement. I actually think Bilbao will win comfortably tonight by about 2 or 3 goals.

so you were impressed by Bilbao dumping man U out of the competition, but what about Sporting knocking Emirates Marketing Project out? They are a good side and have been underestimated imv

I never said I wasn't impressed by Sporting knocking City out, but after the way they did it (diving around, lying on the floor when nothings wrong with them etc) they made me want Emirates Marketing Project to go on and win and you have to be utter utter ****s for me to think that.

I see the sewer rat El Hadji Diouf wants to play for Leeds next season. That would be a good mix, a **** going to a club with a history of playing and acting like ****s!

I remember when Diouf rinsed Warnock a few years ago - it was hilarious 'who's he!?' Can't remember what they fell out over, probably spitting or something. Don't think Warnock had many complementary words for him either; a marriage of mutual despise.
