The die is cast and the gladiators have been paired matching each other pound for pound. but I think the match between barca and bayern will be epic: the former will be looking to take a "pound of flesh" ,while the later will be looking to consolidate on their fine form against pep's former club. the second semis looks like a mismatch but football isn't mathematics, anything could happen.
looking forward to the # clash of the titans.

I think Bayern will win quite comfortably against Barca, their defence is well dodgy and Bayern will rip em apart.I love football always have done but wouldn't go as far as to call it clash of the titans. Now the big fight this weekend, that's a different story all together.

Bayern Munich, will win the Champions league, defo! I watched Barca's 6-0 league win last night and even though Messi and Suarez, were on fire in that game, Bayern will be too strong for them over both ties!

That's Arjen Robben out (calf injury) and maybe Robert Lewandowski also ( broken jaw and nose ) of the semi-final, with Barca. Both were injured in the 1-1 draw (aet) with Borussia Dortmund, in the German Cup game last night. Dortmund, won 2-0 on penalties, with Bayern missing ALL their penalty kicks!!

Yeh my brother asked me if Bayern missed all their penalties but I didn't know. I just think Pep will have a master plan that will outwit Barca. To be honest I just hope the best team win on aggregate. One thing thoughI think the myth that the English premier league is the best in the world can be consigned to the rubbish bin forever. I would rather watch Spanish, Italian even Dutch than the premier league. I like to watch Arsenal and spurs cos they play football that's good to watch but the rest are poor me thinks.

That's why Sky Sports 5, is the most watched channel on my TV Donny? Cos that's where all the La Liga games are on!

I think the match will be very tight and I don't see the scoreline getting that high.. but bayern will carry the day.

it's a shame really... I was shocked that bayern couldn't even convert one of the spot kicks. but against barca brace up to see a rejuvenated bayern.

I don't think they are "poor" ,they rather play direct football not fancy one bit. that said, I Rep the blues.... waiting to be crowned kings of England.

Well I backed them in my league winners acca at the beginning of the season but other teams let me down, that said they are an average side in a poor league. Hazard is class won me a bit of dough this season but i wouldn't go overboard about them. If they were that good they would be in the champions league semis!!

Well after the first legs I would say it looks like a Barca and Real Madrid final as Real have that all important away goal.

Well they would argue they are Catalonian but lets not be picky.So i was wrong, Barca -Juve final, Barca should win but who knows, I haven't seen much of Juve this season so I wouldn't back Barca with %100 confidence.should be a good game though.

Never a true word spoken, american "football" contravenes the trades description act. It just aint football.

Class told in the end. Juve had no idea how to cope with the 3 Amigos and Iniesta who in my mind is the real class player of Barecelona

It's almost not fair having the magical Messi in their team.

What a player, a gift from heaven, sent down for us all to enjoy.

God must be a Barcelona fan.

Messi is a class above but Iniesta does a lot of the spade work to get the ball to him Can't agree with god being a Barca fan being an atheist and all that but I take your point!
