Champions League 2013/2014

Pepe is playing like prime Nesta in this game by the way.

Yep their beauty is almost indistinguishable.

Work rate yes. Movement? Yes he has been moving. But how is it first class?

He is dragging the defenders all over the place when they break and finding the space left by their full backs going forward and working like an animal to do it.

Cant stand him but Bayern have not handled him or the other two front players at all.

Too many captains at Bayern: Pep, Beckenbauer, Rummenigge, Sammer all telling Pep what to do and what not. Pep did himself in this time. . . Should have gone to Mancity which in my opinion are like a plain sheet of paper/ an open mind waiting to be assimilated. Bayern already has an identity and would strive to not be called a Barca replica.

As annoying as it is that its Real Madrid, it does mildly amuse me that Bayern, a year on supposedly "dominating Europe" are now getting a taste of their own medicine.

 

[BarcaGirl]

Comparing Pepe to Nesta ...what has this world come to? Jeez.

I would root for Real over Chelsea for the sake of football. But I'm pulling for Atletico.

I wish i remembered what football was. . . . Anyways, Go CHELSAY!!!

He is a winger, and given how good he is, of course he will be dragging defenders all over the place as soon as he gets the ball.

I just thought he always moves like this, this game is nothing particular/special about it.

For all the credit Ronaldo will get it is actually Pepe and Ramos who have been Madrid's best players in both games vs bayern. Ronaldo has been average in this tie and Madrid would have won with or without him.

Agreed. He needs a club where he can do as he pleases without the media or others at the club disturbing his work and despite Rumenigge's recent comments, that is obviously not the case at Bayern.

Personally I respect Ancelotti a lot as a manager, as a man and how he conducts himself so I'll be pleased for him if Real win the CL. Personally I don't mind Real winning CL either. Better them than Chelsea.

 

[Ursegor]

Did Nesta dive and waste time too?

Nah. But his defending has been top notch today. Would like to see an individual statistic. Must have won like 20 individual duels.

 

[FC B]

Real Madrid has always bought the best players, they have 2 players on their team that cost nearly 200M. There's nothing great about their system, they just have the most money.

Ancelotti has gotten the most out of them so far though.

This !

But Mierda fans never seem to really notice that esential aspect of the issue...

Modric been unreal in this game as well.

Bayern look similar to Barca. They have no defence, just like us

The Bayern bandwaggoners leaving the stadium 10 minutes early. I think I spotted ThwiX somewhere in the crowd.
