Dude this will be really sick! I will always remember the penalty shoot-out in the semis of 2012. Was such a nailbiter! Hope it will be real nice match, with Bayern winning in the end though. Also I'd say if Real wins against Bayern, they literally won the CL. But if Bayern goes through, its again 50/50. Since Chelsea and Athletico are both really hard opponents for Bayern. Well in the end I just hope for good games  | ||

And miss a Mourinho team crush Real's la décima dream in their first Champions League final in 12 years. A year after he was forced out of the club and he beats them with a transitional Chelsea team without a striker. You wouldn't want that to happen just so you can see the press conference after the match? Would suck for Real fans... but dem Spanish media tears nom nom nom | ||

No matter how it ends we will have a great storyline for the final. It's either "the underdog" or up and coming team with all the sympathy in AM against the reigning champions, a city derby (would be the first time in champions league final?) or Mourinho vs Guardiola, the rematch of 2012, the rematch of the super close super cup final 2013... I think it's guaranteed fun for the finish of the season and after that WORLD CUP YEEHA | ||

Plus 2 of the big 3 (i guess Germany is big 3 league) domestic leagues are going to go pretty close to the last game of the season to determine who is the winners of said leagues, pretty cool :D | ||

So if they reach the final they've already done great, especially with a new coach/style of play. | ||

I'm still yawning when I have to think of the ro16. The quarterfinals were great though, but overall Im not sure if I'll remember this season in any special way a few years from now. | ||

They also have scored less goals in La Liga than Barça, and conceded more goals. The next games will decide who is better in the end. CL semifinals, Copa finals, last games (and champion) of Liga :D Idk.. I'm a barca fan and with pinto I'm scared of what could happen in La Liga. Hoping Bayern crushes RM.. Thats gonna be a good game | ||

The language in Uefa's laws regarding this issue are somewhat vague and furthermore, Atletico and Chelsea agreed to a contract both parties thought were legal at the time. Atletico essentially has reneged on this contract. Things are further complicated by the fact Chelsea don't want to alienate their future goalkeeper in Courtois and the fact they are interested in buying Costa. Basically Chelsea is fucked and simply must let Courtois play if they want to do what's in their best interests. Must be a bit galling though haha... Yes. Chelsea might feel betrayed by Atletico, and somewhat rightfully so. But the implications for the future are much larger and that's why UEFA's statement is so important. As you pointed out, the loan system is getting out of hand with rich clubs hoarding talent they could never develop themselves. Clubs that get richer and richer btw. This clause would not seem so harmless, if for example a team like Vitesse would make it to the semifinals on the back of Chelsea B-teamers, only to then have to play without them against Chelsea. It would be a bad joke, insulting to all football fans and especially the fans of the teams that would have had to face a full strength Vitesse before that point. But even in this case there is a chance that Atletico wouldn't have made it to the semifinals without Courtois and another team would be there instead. The solution is simple: Either Courtois is a normal Atletico player with no clauses specific to any one team in the competition or he may not be registered at all. In the future this should be clear to all parties that are involved in loans and taking part in UEFA competitions, and that's a good thing. But it's only a first step, and like you, I think there must be a limit to the number of players that can be loaned out, I don't want to see once respectable clubs that shaped their own destiny reduced to feeder clubs because it's more sustainable. | ||

Its no betrayel if you sign something willingly that's illegal and then don't comply. Everything illegal in a contract js simply void. | ||

I won't easily forget the disappointment of the ro16 and I think only a Dortmund comeback could have made this campaign special, but now yeah I don't think many will remember things to come. (Unless Atletico win the champions league) | ||
