Juve vs Real would be the best match. Monaco vs Atletico has the least chance of Real winning and provides the most interesting winner.

Depends what the ideal is.

mate just vote, don’t overthink it

Depends what your ideal is. Any game involving Atletico is likely to be bit dull, but they deserve a champions league to crown their last 5/6 years.

Monaco - Real would be the hummiest dinger, probably a completely batshit game but would 100% end with Ronaldo’s stupid fucking take-off celebration

Yeah this basically. Juve Real would be the best game, but any scenario in which Real don’t make the final would be fine by me.

But they will, and they’ll win it. Boot, human face, etc.

#435

fuck having atletico in the final tbh

#437

There’s no good winner of that Semi, but at least there’ll be a good guy in the final. Would be fucking mint for Buffon to win it (maybe save a dodgy last minute See Are Seven penalty)

#438

aye, i agree with you really. it’s definitely under a kind of duress and the sun’s way of obtaining the info is almost certainly immoral, but most importantly publishing something like this puts stress on the victim.

there’s a whole discussion to have about this - his comment, disgracefully, doesn’t veer far away from what often passes as lads banter - but sharing this type of inflammatory tabloid rubbish isn’t necessarily a productive way to do so.

Ajax vs Lyon
Celta Vigo vs Utd

Looking forward to Pione Sisto tearing us a new one again

#440

I hope Iago Aspas scores a number of goals (more than 1)

#441

In all srssns that was the draw I wanted second most/second least.

They’ve beaten Real and Barca this season but they’re also like 11th in La Liga or something so you know

#442

33/1 for a Monaco-Lyon :fr: double :money_with_wings:

#443

Was hoping for Vigo away second leg as I have a couple days off around then. Let’s hope Captain Darmian will lead us to victory.

Would be really happy to see Juve, Monaco or Atletico win it.

Atletico just cos of how extraordinary the job Simeone has done, and how horrific 2014/2016 were. Would bloody love to see them do it this time.

Juve classy af and it’s absurd Buffon+Bonucci+Chiellini haven’t won one. Plus it’d be fun to see Dani Alves continue his ridiculous trophy-collecting career after Barca binned him off unceremoniously. Feel like they’re the actual best team in Europe but they’ll need to prove it. I think this is a better team than the one that lost in 2015, which is absurd given that midfield was Pirlo/Pogba/Vidal/Marchisio.

Monaco are probably the most exciting young team in a generation and obviously the best thing about this season. Feels like there’s been occasions where the exciting, unexpected team has got close (Dortmund 2013, Atletico 2014) but it’s probably not since Porto in 2004 that a real outsider has won it.

Madrid again would just be awful. They’ve got that horrible thing Ferguson’s Man Utd often had, where I swear to God they’re really not actually that good - by actually being better than teams for 90 minutes - but just sheer will to win and being arrogant bastards gives them an edge. Their squad is obscene and clearly the best in Europe, which explains why they’re probably about to win the league, but in terms of first XI, I’m not convinced they’re better than Juve/Bayern/a very lopsided Barca.

They’re all much of a muchness really. Midtable team in a good league or two tinpot mickey mouse clubs from tinpot mickey mouse leagues in tinpot mickey mouse countries.

Also last time (citation needed) you played a midtable Spanish team over two legs it was very, very funny
