It makes me laugh they keep saying on Sky that Barcelona are a 'big team' - yet you look at how many times they have won the Champions League and it is half as many as Bayern. And look how much Barcelona have spent over the years. Bayern have won it once in 30 years get over it. When any neutral in the world compares those two teams they would assume due to fan base, league there competing in and standard of players that Barcelona are a much bigger team. |

Apart from the facts they're in the Champions League whilst Bayern aren't, they have bigger attendances, they play in a better league and they have better players, I'd say there's very little difference.  |

I've never really understood why the the Bundesliga isn't better than it is. Serves a population of 80+ million people, highly successful national side. And only one club side that can realistically claim to compete with the best in Europe (in a good year). |

United's away record in Europe over the past 3 years or so is generally quite poor too. I hope Barcelona win, the clubs couldn't be any more different, one is owned by it's fans, the other is owned by someone who hadn't even heard of it until 5 years ago. I also want Chelsea to win because I like Avram Grant.  |

Bet it wont. Man utd will try and play their "keep it tight" game, like at AC meelan last season. And it wont work again. Almost a good piece of punditry Dave....Barca are a shadow of the side of 2 seasons ago or even last season. Think Rijkaard will be off to Chelsea for next season. |

Is that how it turned out. For the brief period i listened on the radio it sounded like man u were on the back foot. And mr "never bottles it in big important games" missed a penalty.
