Best week of the season by far
CL Semi-Finals 13/14 - April 22,23,29,30
- Thread starter Invictus
- Start date
It should be clear to Bayern now that Kroos is no good for them. Swap deal with Fellaini will be a win-win.
It'll be an Airbus.
Won't be much of a shock to be honest. They are champions elect in the league of the other CL finalist.
It is bizarre, plays perfectly into Madrid's way of playing, even though two of the goals were poorly defended set pieces the amount of space they've left players like Bale and Ronaldo is mind boggling at times.

There are classico levels of cuntishness on display.
boys vs men today holy shit.
and wtf this first two goals. you can concede two goals by real madrid. but PLEASE not like that and by RAMOS.
Pep has really transformed this Bayern team. I still remember when this team could defend on set pieces

Ancelotti set up his team perfectly to play on the counter, although I did not expect it to be THIS easy. The two goals from corners were a bit lucky but also ridiculous marking from Bayern.
Even Chelsea?
What's this? Can't see on tapatalk
Ideally, Atletico beat Chelsea and then beat Madrid in the final now, but you just get the feeling it's Madrid's year.
Agree with us against schalke, forgot about that. This feels even more one sided then bayern Barca though, Madrid look like scoring every time they have the ball.
This, 120 minutes of a airplane in front of the Chelsea goals
so looks like we wont get Ancellotti then
Why do I keep seeing Neuer 30 yards out from his goal? His heads gone
He is a disaster waiting to happen whenever I see him. Also his distribution is extremely overrated.
Like I said on here in the Bayern-thread before the first leg: It's suicidal. It's retarded. It's incomprehensible. If somebody can explain to my how this tactic is supposed to work, I'll bake him the greatest cake ever.
Near perfect half from Madrid. Only the Alonso yellow and Ramos risking a yellow letting it down.
If I remember right, the first leg against Arsenal you played brilliantly, and in the second you looked pretty average.
What was that, 3 weeks apart at that stage?
Moyes and Round looking at their set pieces manual.
Soooo is Pep still bmitw?
Agreed, I dont think Pep is that great a manager, he got very lucky with the Barca team coming to its peak, and has taken over a side that was totally dominant last season and has made them look beatable and far inferior. The work he did with Barca was more containing than it was progressive.

It hasn´t been an easy game but decent refereeing from Proença. Felt bad for Alonso but that was a reckless challenge
Arsenal got a penalty and was more dangerous then us in the first half. We dominated against a 10 man team. Nothing to write home about for a team that's supposedly dominating and in possession anyway, really.
The Champions League is amazing. Watching any team beating a club of that standard at their own stadium, playing like that is a joy to watch. Heck, even if it were Liverpool it would be enjoyable to watch.
What Red Nev thinks of Bayern vs Real
Sack Pep Sell Kroos?
Why are the pundits surprised about this outcome. Bayern are lucky they are not down 10-0 on aggregate. Real Madrid should have ended the tie in the first leg. This was always going to be easy for madrid tonight.
Haven't seen Bayern this badly outclassed since the 2012 Final.
He's a genius, luring Madrid into a false security, after years of tiki taka he is going to come out and route one the shit out of Madrid and run out 12-3 winners
I would opt for the second. It's almost ridiculous how this team looks so different in terms of style although all the players are still the same. And when Dortmund kicked the hell out of Bayern 3-0 at the Allianz, people would believe that Pep would get his players working like beasts with another plan in case. However, nothing doing... like the old Ray would say, Bayern were bobbins. Bring back that team of last year that trounced Barcelona.
To me, Guardiola will end up being a glorified Arsene Wenger at this rate; one plan A, no plan B, plenty of sterile possession to no end product against tougher teams.
Worked for years at Barcelona. They did the exact same thing to Real and beat them over and over and over under Guardiola.
I think your midfield lacks the quality of Barcelona's to do this, but I'm sure Pep will learn from this and adjust next season. You still won the league, made the UCL semi final and are in the German cup final.
Wow, If Chelsea beat Atletico and stop Madrid in the finals, the life would be full circle for Mourinho. What a tragedy though, we have to see a Real Vs Chelsea
Questionable assertion this.
I've just turned it on.
0-3
Bayern 67%
Wtf!
0-3

Wtf!
Horrible tactics from Pep. No Martinez as a DM in front of the defense to intercept the counters? For Christ's sake, didn't he watch the first game? He has committed suicide tonight. It certainly isn't stupidity, it's arrogance and he is getting exactly what he deserves right now, nothing more and nothing less.
