Who are people going to root for? Or no one?

I think I prefer Dortmund as a side, but then you get all those football hipsters and #AMF types cheering them on.

I just hope it's a good spectacle.

Klopp: "People climbed Mount Everest & they know it might be 10m from the top that they have to turn back. But they still tried & we will try."
 
I don't mind who wins but I've tipped Dortmund from the very start so it would be nice to be proved right. <whistle>
 
Klopp: "If this is my only Champions League Final, I'm so glad it was at Wembley."

Klopp: "Can the police not use the blue lights? If someone knows a policeman, please can they ask him to use them tomorrow for the game."



Some bits from Thomas Muller...


"There's some better (at penalties) than others but no-one's going to wet their pants over it."
"Our weaknesses? Maybe you should ask Dortmund. I can't say we have any weaknesses."
 
Just hoping for an entertaining game. But being British, I'll probably cheer for the so called underdogs. It seems like they've got it all to do.
 
What's AMF?

Oops, sorry. It's a trend from Twitter.

AMF stands for 'Against Modern Football'.

The irritating thing being it is mainly tweeted by young guys who have experienced nothing but 'modern football'.

That and the fact the people who generally tweet it all try to be different, but are ultimately all being different in the same way. Therefore... sheep. I could say generally that most of these people will like or talk about: Dortmund, Oasis, Stone Roses and AMF.
 
Dortmund for me. They probably won't get another chance and Klopp deserves it.

Think it will be Bayern though, and it's hard to begrudge them it.
 
I wouldn't go as far to say they won't have another chance, didn't they get to 2 finals in the late 90's?
I mean this team though, they've lost Götze already, Lewandowski's likely to follow and who else will they lose? Sadly I doubt they'll be as competitive again for a while. Bayern on the other hand will probably make the final again next year!
 
How do they deserve it most? They've both got there on merit presumably, so not sure how one can deserve more than the other before the game.

They've played better, and showed themselves to be better than Dortmund in the league. Dortmund are unbeaten, which is impressive, but very lucky not to be beaten by Malaga who are not a great side.

Madrid beat Dortmund 2-0 in the second leg in the semi final.
