UEFA Champions League Winners 2012


[image loading]


CHELSEA WIN!! 1-1 AET 4-3 ON PENALTIES!!!

[image loading]



FC Bayern will be looking to add a 5th Champions League (European Cup) trophy to their vast collection they have aquired over the years, whilst Chelsea will be looking to start their collection with a first. Many tip Bayern to be favorites for the game not only because they are a good team and would probably edge it on a footballing scale but the fact they get to play the final of a the biggest competition in Europe in their backyard.

Gomez vs Drogba

Drogba vs Gomez is going be the key to both teams victory, can Gomez boss the Chelsea back four into submission and dominate like he did vs Real Madrid, or will Drogba get the better of Boateng and whoever his partner is (all be it he turns up) and Chelsea get to play off him and win the game that way. Will be key these two have good games for the goals to be high in the match in my opinion, but who knows Chelsea can defend and well Bayern are German they know what it takes to win.

Robbery vs Chelsea Defence

So, we all know how good Robben and Ribery are, fantastic pace the pair of them, with Robben the quicker of the two and fantastic feet to be able to do what they want with the football. Whether its beating a man to cross or beating a man to get a pop shot on goal Robben and Ribery have done fantastically well this season, and it brings to the question can they do it in the big game? If they do Chelsea will have huge problems in there back four (not first choice back four) and might be overwhelmed by the pace and skill of the Bayern wingers. However if Chelsea shut up shop in the fashion they did vs Barcelona Ribery and Robben should be no problems for them and could be dangerous on the counter attack (Personally i think this will be the way Chelsea play this game).
Chelsea have defended like kings to get through their semi final whilst Bayern expressed themselves in the Bernabeu to get into there home final, so how will it go? Chelsea defence dictate or will Bayern's offense obliterate?

Hopefully Luiz and Cahill are fully fit - apparently they are training well at the moment so that is good. I imagine that Bayern will try to overload Bosingwa, so that will definitely be an area of concern.

I also noticed that Robben wears ridiculously tight shirts.

Going to be an easy win for Bayern, i'd say 3-1. Just too strong for Chelsea's defense! They've had a poor season and finished strong, but that won't be enough to topple Bayern who know how to win European cups, unlike Chelsea.

Bayern should have this pretty comfortably... which is what I'm hoping for as well.

Mostly just hope it'll be a good game though

For the sake of football I hope Chelsea isn't going to play with 11 man defense. I wanna see some fireworks at the finals.

Since Bayern has the home court advantage I'm going for Bayern to take the Championship

ramires is a pretty huge part of chelsea's defense on the wings, they are gonna miss him tracking back and shutting down either robben or ribery more than any of their other suspensions

Bayern 3-1 Chelsea

Imho Chelsea will try to copy Dortmund from the DFB Pokal final (Dortmund won 5-2 against Bayern) and will fail horribly. But because Alaba and Badstuber are missing and Drogba is amazing Chelsea will score one goal.

Gonna be an epic final

I am soooo pumped.

Concerning Bayern's squad tomorrow:
Rafinha on the right and Lahm on the left side is also an option(and I think that Heynckes is going to play that way)

PACK MA'S :D

Chelsea. I hate them, but I think Bayern was a bit lucky to get here. They also looked terrible against Dortmund. 1-nil.
If you could reason with haters, there would be no haters. YGTMYFT
