how come angelotti takes off cristiano when madrid is getting eliminated? oh wait..

also lol casillas at the end

lol they just showed the suarez clip again, I still can't stop laughing at the fake jaw injury act.

Madrid players should probably book their holidays. La Liga is getting cancelled and it seems they had their post season parade before tonight's game

Lol RITS you ghw

Preety much this.

POTD

Congratulations Juventus, thoroughly deserved, best of luck in the final. A bunch of nice players to root for. Sucks that I won't be able to enjoy Pirlo's book as much as I wanted. Unfortunately I was right from day one.

Got this **** locked up. Juventus is going down.

lol RITS, no one cares about those invite tournament trophies from the 50s. People dislike RM because everything around the club oozes douchyness.

_ _ _ _

Who are RM gonna break the bank on this summer?

Lol. Says you. Have you bought any two year olds to your academy yet?

Sadly, I don't have an acadamy

while i agree i doubt barca will defend set-pieces as well as madrid did and a fit pogba will make a difference as well

100 mio for Reus would solve all the problems imo


That Morata kid can score in the big games, might be someone for RM ;P

Chiellini is a wild card for Juve these days. Barca will abuse him imo. Back 4 generally isn't fast enough (then again who is these days). Pirlo is unfortunately a good bit off his eliteness as well but maybe he can summon his magic for one big game.
Fit Pogba/Vidal combo can give Barca fits, their attack is obviously dangerous as well. I kind of like their controlled counter style. Seems to be more about good paths and the second wave than pure speed.

Barca in shape is one of the better teams I've seen the last 5ish years. But one can hope for a nice game.

Real not winning this, I knew it

right barca side/left juve will probably be key, dani alves/messi trying to exploit evra/chiellini with pogba getting in behind the gaps dani alves leaves on the other side.
morata/tevez also def the type of strikers that can cause barca problems(more so than vs the more athletic real defenders)

This would be a fun ticket to cash, made the bet all the way back in August! Should have bet more

LESSS GOOOO JUVVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Luis Enrique and Allegri in a Champions League final. Can someone check on BAIDS to make sure he hasn't fapped himself into a coma?

tyty

not the best of games. many mistakes and lack of sharpness I thought (from Madrid too of course) but definitely well fought and great to finally be back in a Champions League final!

I think before the knockout stages/draw I actually made a post about not minding facing Barcelona which seems very crazy now and I can't remember my reasons for making such a post.

Of course back then Barcelona weren't quite the best team around and I guess had had some vulnerable periods or something...

At least Pogba should find some form come the final and hopefully Pirlo too can muster some kind of extra gear than what we're seeing currently.

I will say that tactically what they have to do against Barcelona is more simple than against Madrid where they had to be really varied mixing different tempo, slow possession then more direct, press or no press and defensive positioning, but in the end didn't even need great execution all the time - Barcelona will be very hard to stop but the gameplan of deep narrowness tactically resembling all the Milan/Allegri games against Barcelona seems like a given.

I can also see the Juve attacking duo moving well and close to each other posing some problems for the modestly numbered Barca defenders more similar to Juve-business as usual threatening the room behind than vs Ramos and Varane today who were both faster and until desperation set in didn't allow anything directly behind them.

Like others have focused on the Juve flanks almost can't and won't be defended until very deep and there will definitely have to be some specific gameplanning for Messi there and of course elsewhere.

Pirlo against these opponents could also easily be one step behind too many and that in the places where there aren't supposed to be space and breakdowns will be fatal.

It won't happen but I'm kinda hoping Marchisio plays the role which he has done very well recently and another midfield worker is inserted instead.

Overall Barca look too brilliant right now with too many skill advantages to not come through even against Juve side giving away less space, being more cagey all the time than they were over two legs against Madrid.

Best Juventus chance is probably something bizarre happening involving Suarez, Evra and Chiellini.
