    Anyway, I really hope we won't get another all spanish final, even if that gives City a chance to win their first CL.
    Weren't they all saved? Dosn't that say something about the quality of the goalkeeping?

    Given Simeone's resources and what he started with, I'll throw it out there that he's a far better coach than Pep.

    On the night Pep got tactically trounced.

    Game was won at half time when Atlético went 4-3-3 and brought on Carrasco.

    Pep had no answer.
    Caviar manager, will get found out at City.

    Hopefully Real Madrid or Man City win the CL. Atletico winning would be terrible.

    I have a feeling tonight's game will end up going to the penalty shootout. FML if that's the case...

    Nope, can't see it being goalless. City have been poor in the Premiere League for a while now, and I think Real went in last leg a too conservatively while City really rode their luck in the second half; I'm hoping/expecting Real to tear City to pieces.

    I'm expecting Real to tear them apart as well. But then again, some expected Bayern to trample over Atletico.

    10-0 City. Pep to go there and be the first to retain the CL trophy after they go on to win.

    Just cos Leicester won doesn't mean you've gotta bet on every 5000-1 bet now.

    City weren't great in those games, PSG just didn't show up. I don't think anyone expected that. Real aren't PSG.
