Juergen Klopp...BIG COACH!  Let's see how long he'll continue resisting the overtures to join a "bigger" club. 

At the rate Bayern buying Dortmund Players...

Dortmund gotta stop selling their players, if they want to really develop into a super club.  Kagawa gone, Goetze gone, Lewandowski probably gone this summer, and Hummels and Subotic are fair game as well.  They trying to renew Lewandowsk's contract, but everyone knows that is to cash in on him in the summer, by making some club activate he transfer value.

[Peong]

As Ternorsaw say, not if BVB keep selling dey players.
It go be Bayern all alone again.

Ah love BVB's knock though, I hope they can add to the  team.

Yep, Sir Alex alluded to that last week, saying that he believed Bayern had pretty much sealed a deal.  This is not good for German football.  Schalke, Leverkusen and company gotta step it up, because the gap is widening in that league.  Imagine, Bayern lose one game all season?  Nah man.

Nothing new really. It has been done in Italy, Spain, England. Bayern have been knocking on the door for a few years now. They are a legendary club that wants to remain that way.

Dortmund were suffocating last night. I was very surprised about their domination, though they had their slice of good fortune. The second leg could see the Special One witness his greatest triumph or his greatest defeat.

Jury still out.  Depends on the Xavi/Iniesta replacements being groomed (Thiago, Tello) and the strengthening of the defense.  While Messi still very young, these other two issues have to be rectified to remain a force.  Let's not forget eh, is 6 straight CL semis and 3 CL titles.  Not shabby at all

Iniesta still have it in spades, arguably one of the better Barca players on the night. Xavi, however, needs a rest, he is no longer a young man & he has been playing many minutes for the last few years, for both SPain and Barca. Sanchez for me is not Barca class & everyone knows Alves is a liability defensively, many may even say Pique is the same (or lacks focus). He certainly does not look fit. The big question on the night was why Villanova left Villa on the bench for so long. Ah well father time catches up with everyone, time for fresh blood.

Dortmund have a way of always finding new players tuh replace the ones dey sell off. Dey sold Gotze, but they have another probably more skillful midfield general, already running the show, Marco Reus.
 Dortmund may not dominate Bunda's but they will represent Germany well in Europe. Ah pullin for dem tuh cut Bayern's arse in the final before PeP take over.

  doh sleep on Barca nuh....Barca might very well ress 6 on dey ass Wednesday!


                        ***********************************************


...as much as part of Bayern strategy was to use their physicality to their advantage, Barca needed to put some tai chi on dey ass and let dem commit a setta fouls.....If Messi get his strength back, he is the man to spearhead dat tactic.....if Tito use he head lil' bit...

  Pique really not looking the same....dem Catalan and dem startin' to curse de day Shakira walk een he life. Yuh might have a good point in trute because it seem like Xavi was givin away de ball, all in de first half and all, when Barca was still lookin' like they coulda at least put up a fight he really wasn't lookin' sharp. Tito like he was in a daze because it really look like dat second half just unravel rel quick and as much as the second goal was offside, I think is dat third one dat really f**k Barca up.  Dat goal really took the wind out of their sails.  Speaking of Iniesta, though, was it him dat leave out two Bayern men rel stink on the far channel in de first half?  If I'm not mistaken I think it was.
