wht a great final that would be...champions league once again shows the supremacy of english clubs in EUROPE...for me..MAN UTD are the clear favourites to win a double this season..
Whosoever saw the chelsea-liverpool semi final would consider chelsea lucky to come with a point. Liverpool has looked the better of all the four semi finalists on display.Perhaps at this level, slight luck is required to win the prize.Purely on the basis of the soccer played, liverpool should back themselves to win, chelsea however would be helped a lot if Essien returns and kalu starts in place of malouda.the winner of this tie likely to win the champions league.
This would be a better combination as both are of a real attacking teams.... Chelsea were not upto the mark in the last encounter... only misqueue by J Cole was a real threat else they played very defensive. and the ManU is a tiger in Old Traford else they would not have got the following stats for the ball possesion (66% to 34%) Hopeless.
I would love to see Chelsea against Barcelona in this years final. Chelsea played beautifully against Livepool at Aintfield the other day & yesterday Barcelona were a far far superior side then Man U. Chelsea Vs Barcelona, the final should be a cracker of a match !

Containing Barcelona was a game plan, Man U is a far superior side in Europe as compared to others, anyway I would like to meet LiverFools in the final to give them a good trashing, but first get past Barca!! Come on United

whosoever is saying liverpool are best team on display are either diehard fans or havent been followin champs league football this yr...liverpool(as in most cases) were lucky to even get past group stage...they just scraped thru..then won against a 10-men inter milan by scorin 2 goals after both their centrebacks were gone(materazzi harshly sent off and cordoba injured)..one goal was a deflection and the other a miscued cross which went into the goal...and against arsenal,everyone knew wht hpnd..atleast ppl who watched knew wht hpnd...in the 1st leg a definite penalty on hleb wasnt given and in 2nd leg, a blatant dive by babel was given as a penalty...so liverpool hav been unlucky only once(whn riise acrobatically put the ball into his own net) but they hav been lucky far more times...anyways i wud like them to win this yr...it wud b better to see tht rather than watchin man utd or chelsea lift the title...or best of all...let barca and meesi lift the title
