If Real qualifies for the finals they will definitely win it. I have no doubts about it. Recently they have won every CL final they have played and have tons of experience absorbing the pressure of such big game. On the other hand City will be playing their first CL final in history. They will shit their pants against Real. Also i can foresee Zidane outsmarting Pep.

Foden is a superior player to likes of Pedri and Puig on all levels. Even without the input from Pep, he is superior to them, especially athletically. He is more direct, faster, stronger, good with the ball and can shoot. Kid can do it all.

Lol comparing Foden with the likes of Pedri and Puig is an insult to him. Its like comparing Messi with Lukaku.

I definitely would. Maybe i'm biased because I'm English but I don't see anything from Pedri or any other youngster at Barca that shows signs of being as talented as Foden, they are talented yes. But this guy is on another level.

At 17 he was obviously more raw, but he was still immense and influential in winning the u17 world cup too for England.

Now that Foden is playing more and more LW (especially in UCL) Ansu is the one to compare him with. Unfortunately, Ansu got injured very badly.

Yep. Let's hope Chelsea somehow knock them out tonight cause otherwise they will win it this year like they won it back in 2016 with the easiest of draws up until the final and ofc with lots of luck.

Clearly we better have a boring final than Madrid winning an entertaining one.

Of course, i felt the same in 18/19 in regards to Barcelona.
Spurs - Liverpool was one of the most boring finals i have ever seen, but easily worth it over the alternative.

Foden is so versatile though. Powerful for his stature, has pace, great passer of the ball, dribbles very well, and isn't afraid to shoot. I'm starting to doubt he's actually English :lol:
