As a neutral I really want to see a City vs Bayern semi, with Bayern winning obviously.

I'd settle for that. Anything but City winning the thing (even though it'll have a massive asterix next to it!)
 
Lyon look alright on the counter. Might be able to do something that way. Can see them getting a goal in this game, but can easily see City getting one, too.
 
Booked for that :lol:

Is there a country that produces bigger play-acting cheats than Portugal? Do they coach this into their kids at a young age or something?

Good question but it really is all latin americans seemingly.
 
That was one of the most epic over reactions to a slight brush of a tackle ever! Wow.
 
It's sad that Depay never succeeded with us. Clearly a good player. It just wasn't the right time for him. A couple of years later and it might have turned out better. Seems to be doing pretty well with Lyon, though.

He's, as the Dutch say too big for the napkin not big enough for the table cloth. I doubt that's a saying in English.

Maybe, too big for the pond too small for the ocean?

I just want them out. Anyone can beat anyone on their day. Bayern should beat them comfortably but look at Chelsea in 2012.

Same. You can imagine the game going the same way that one did if the game is tight and City coming out the winners. I thought it was Bayern’s when mullers scored late until drogbas injury time header, I thought it was Bayern’s when Robben won a pen in extra time until he missed, and I thought it was Bayern’s when they took the pens in their fans end.

Can’t take the risk they gotta be out ASAP!

Plenty of sides pressed barcelona out of the park these last 3-4 seasons. Bayern are just the best of them

I didn't say Bayern was the only. I said without quality, Barcelona quality can crawl back into the game, even cancel out the hard work from other teams.

Even yesterday, Barcelona would turn it around at 1-1. A certain person implied last night any decent teams would carry similar thrashing on Barcelona/ Barcelona was the worse between victim of thrashing between Roma, Arsenal...

Anyways, time for today game. Lyon looked well. Hopefully they can cause an upset. All French final anyone?

Ik heb nog niet da.t gehoord. :D

We have the big fish in a small pond saying, so the second one works definitely. I know what you mean anyway. Seems like PSV and now Lyon are the right type of clubs for him. Glad to see him doing well, just a shame it never worked out for him.
