Best Dani Alves match in 2 seasons, for sure. Awesome match from him.

And that was a awesome defending from Barcelona, they denied all the Bayern attack, and they recovered the ball fast and with security. I think the team has the best defence in the last 4 years.

Götze doesn't know what type of player he is or should be for Bayern. Bayern bought him with the vision that he can go past defenders on his own. He could do that for Dortmund where the team was charging at the opposite defense with 500 kph and had space but he can't do that in a calm attacking team and by now he knows that and doesn't even try.

His crossing is not good and he is not very strong or fast so is just sitting on the wing and pass the ball arround cause what do else. It's not that he is doing bad at what he does but there is just no role for him.

The best thing about Messi is that If you gather all his right foot goals (like today second goal), he still has a collection of beautiful goals better than most players despite it is his bad foot xD

At this point its clear he doesn't have a bad foot.
He just uses his left more out of habit. xD

He doesnt have a bad foot. He has one Champion of the Universe foot and the other is just Champion of the World.

I feel european defenders need to be fiercer, and with fiercer, i mean 1 strong foul to intimidate the striker.

They are way too easy on strikers, they never try to stand their ground... Strikers always have a hard time here because of that, defenders are pretty much "cheating" with cheap hits and intelligent fouls.

It doesnt seem " fair", but hey, Messi skills arent fair either :p he is just too good lol

I have no idea how anyone could ever justify claiming that Messi isn't the best.

well I think he is the best.

But not in every aspect of the game.

Zidane had the better vision; Henry was faster; ok.. I know ..

Imho Messi is the most spectacular player to ever play the game so far. Its just hard to name a single GOAT because football has many different aspects and you cant really compare Zidane with Messi e.g

If hes the best ever is up to debate. If hes one of the goats (already now ..) is not up to debate. Its a fact.

A match like today gets me pretty hyped for Bayern's next transfer window.

It will be very difficult, Bayern's star players are getting old and some are almost irreplaceable. Robben had one of his best years, but it can't go on forever. Ribery seems to be past his prime, and so does Lahm. (Such a bad season for Lahm, maybe his worst in a decade or so.) Schweinsteiger is always injured, Kroos is gone and Xabi Alonso is old. Oh and Götze flopped.

There is so much to do in such a short time, I doubt we will see Bayern at the level of the past few years in the near future. Unfortunately Dortmund isn't there to use their weakness.
