UEFA Champions League's final will begin at 8:30 today between Barcelona
and Manchester United. So who do you guys support and which team do you
think will take the crown??

I personally support Barcelona, but I think it will be a tight game, to be
safe of winning the game for us...we need that referee from the last game
(Barcelona vs Chelsea 2nd Leg):D:D

GO BARCAS!:)

I think United are going to take it purely because barce keep saying they deserve it, they did not even deserve to be in the final let alone deserve to win it so for them let's hope as you say they get a ref who cannot spot handballs again. I am glad they got through because this is far better than united vs chelsea.

Messi and ronaldo is going to be amazing, to see what messi does against a tight defense and see what ronaldo does against a weak defense where he should have more space to operate than he gets in english footie.

Cannot flippin wait though, game of the season even if it is a bit defensive by united which it will be.

I worry for barcelona though, defense looks a bit suspect.

I personally think barce is the most well rounded team ever but man utd is super good to, so this is a difficult call but my money is on Barce. Any way you look at it it should be one hell of a game

No i dunno hey, look at barcelona when they face english teams, they cannot get into gear because of they don't know how to cope with such good defensive teams, in spain you can run riot with tons of space, in england there is no space to play such a beautiful game. Look at how arsenal fail and they are similar to barce in terms of their style.

+1, couldn't agree more. I think it will be a tight 1-0 win to Man U with the goal coming via a set-piece. I pray i'm wrong and that it's an open flowing game with Barca winning but that's wishful thinking for such an important game.

Football subforum people :p

UNITED.

BELIEVE.

You shush i hardly ever get to chat about footie since my ban :p

The game will be defensive like the chelsea game, the only way to play barcelona is the way united did it last year and the way chelsea should have done it this year.

The Grammar Nazi in me wants to smack you, but I'll agree with you and say that United should take it...

@killadoob - I've got me a red card (everlasting one too), hasn't stopped me... then again... you need to change the way you speak to a person(sic) like Genius/Supa;)

Finally, someone not ashamed enough to admit the truth. Genius - this boy could teach you a thing or two!

True story. It is hard. But necessary. Sadly.

If Barca plays the same way next season I can't honestly see them losing the cup. So happy that positive football won. I swear at one stage Man U had 8 people in the backline!

(Was so funny seeing how exactly half the stadium went empty as the awards were being handed out.)
