    I really think Real is the weakest but luckiest of last 4 this year!!

    Ofcourse they have some brilliant individuals but as a team and manager (with all due respect to Carlo) they are the weakest.

    My head and heart says Atleti will annihilate Real in Lisbon.

    However, if Atleti lose to Barca - that would be a severe blow psychologically to them.
    In that case - I would say 50-50 for the final.


    What do you say?

    The way to divide is Atletico win CL, Barca the league and real the Copa then the top 3 have won one each

    I never want Barca to win anything. Bunch of cheating, whining ass hats.
    Much prefer Real, even with Fake Ronaldo playing for them

    I think after all this, AM will end up pot less. I fancy Barca to get a narrow win at the Nou Camp and Real to win the C.L.

    Would be a massive shame if that does happen.

    It is what I am leaning to as well. It is very rare that a natural order as ingrained as Real Barca gets so upset.

    Wouldn't care if they lost the CL as it's usually a different winner every year anyway, but hope they win La Liga. Just think they will lose to Barca and beat Real!

    Hope they win both as Courtois has nothing left to stay in Madrid for, would have won everything.

    Plus it would be great to see a true underdog destroy the Classico teams.

    Simeone has outdone Barca every time this season. I expect a draw again this time.

    The final is a big match, but hope Diego Costa scores a goal and Courtois has a masterclass.

    These are the 2 biggest games of his young career.

    I suspect Courtois to be nervous in both the games. Something to be glad about - he is not playing for us.

    Courtois did a Cech in their last la liga game - very questionable decisions.

    Iker made that easier for Atleti.. One hand on the cup already..

    No wonder Jose sat Iker down, played him only in mickey mouse cups and not in biggest cup last season!!

    Carlo gave in on day 1 and named Iker for UEFA CL, despite Jose making it easier for him.

    One another reason Carlo < Jose !!

    I was actually wondering what Chelsea fans opinions of Ancelotti vs Mourinho were?

    Ancelotti seems to have gotten more out of Madrid than Jose did. (In Europe certainly.)

    been wrong many times and have to agree Bale's predo is one of them.

    Single handedly got Real their 2 cups this season!!

    Smuck Ronaldo did nothing in these 2 big games.

    Congrats Carlo!!

    Ronaldo didn't play in the cup final against Barcelona he was injured and he still scored in this final.
