5-4 ??? You want us to suffer heart attack.

2-0 (Iniesta, Pedro)

In 12 hours I'm off to Wembley. Wish me luck with a flight. I will leave my voice and nerves there. I'll be back online on Sunday around 2PM CET.



Visca el Barça !!

I so envy you Enjoy yourself brother. Next year the final will be in Munich. I will be putting my name in the hat to try and get a ticket.... THough my chances will be very low. If we do indeed make it again next year I'll still go there even if I dont get a ticket though in hopes to be able to celebrate with the club!

There's an interview floating around somewhere asking Mr. T for a prediction on tomorrow's game. I'm just hoping his answer was directed at Manchester United.

Definitely, that would be wonderful.

Have a great time, Slo.

Jack Wilshere: Beware of Barcelona's dirty tricks.

Reading this article made me so mad, I like Wilshere as a player but I hope Barcelona DESTROY Manchester United tomorrow just to shove it in his face.

 

[Fourteen]

He's a bitter little boy.

Jack Wilshere: Beware of Barcelona's dirty tricks.

Reading this article made me so mad, I like Wilshere as a player but I hope Barcelona DESTROY Manchester United tomorrow just to shove it in his face.

Lol, yeah it was our dirty tricks that lead his brilliant team to get zero shots in an entire match against us... and our dirty tricks worked so well that his team continued to go downhill for the rest of the season. Laughable really, but what do you expect?

 

[Corb]

Barça and ManU have in common they have become great in the last 20 years.

 

[10Rivaldo]

While i agree with the rest of your post, this is not quite true. He is typically the player in our squad who runs the most.

Indeed, Xavi covers the most ground than any of our players bar maybe Alves. Something that a lot of people don't seem to notice.

Attention, spoliers :

Such a an important goal in Barça's history 19 years ago in Wembley. I was too young I didn't remember it.

 

[dalitis8]

I hope we get another Alaves - Liverpool, except the Spanish team winning this time.

5-4 please.

How about a pure Manita.

5-0 plzzzzzzz
