Who will win the Champions League this season? ('14-'15)
Right - the Champions Leagues is about to kick off and it's all Deja Vu it seems.
Bayern vs. City Dortmund vs. Arsenal Chelsea vs. Schalke Barcelona vs. PSG All the same as last year's? Anyhow - this time I won't write a detailed analysis because I am pretty much certain Bayern will take it home! The final is in Berlin. With Lewandowski and Xabi Alonso they got just the players they still needed. Benatia brought some additional class in defense. And yes, Martinez and Thiago are injured, but, they'll be back for the second half of the season. I can't possible see beyond them. And neither can the bookies :D. Top favourite again. Hope they're right!!! |

Aside from the Simeone, Arsene Wenger is another one who thoroughly deserves the UCL (although I'm biased towards my club, Arsenal). Overall very excited this year :D My predictions: Bayern 2-0 City Dortmund 1 - 2 Arsenal Chelsea 3 - 0 Schalke Barca 1-1 PSG |
Very poor performance from Liverpool tonight. That wasn't the way I wanted us to play our first game back. It was the win I wanted of course, but the performance was extremely poor.
Balotelli is a signing I am made up with. He has huge potential and on his day is unstoppable but he doesn't fit our style of play (at the moment) We need the Suarez/Sturridge sort of player to open up the defence but Balotelli doesn't do that. He is very central and lets the defenders organize themselves. Borini actually opened them up a bit when he came on and that is what we needed and it worked for the team. I hope we put in a better performance than that in our next game because they are the weak ones in our group and we was at home and just about got the result. |

That was super lucky from Liverpool. Their goalie just messed it up. But the team to watch yesterday was Dortmund. My god those boys play football. They need to do something about their conversion rate though - they should have scored 4 or 5 easily. Really excited about Bayern - City tonight though :D |

Bring on City now. No Robben, no Ribery, no Alcantara, no Schweinsteiger, no Javi Martinez...still, I expect a solid 2 goal difference result :D |

In terms of Liverpool, I think we have changed our team far too much after what was our best season for years. Their are 6 or 7 players who have barely played with eachother before all playing now. For me, that's too much as it's over half of the starting 11. Even the subs are players who are new or who have barely played. |
Solid performance against City. In the end it was lucky - but totally deserved :D. So happy it's Champions League time again :D

What can I say? Just absolutely shocking from the start. We need Sturridge back ASAP. Someone who will do Balotelli's job because he will not move! He is a great player WHEN he tries. A really great player, even.
I fear Real Madrid now. I didn't, but I do now. |
