spanish football is ruling europe these years there's no doubt who is the king of football on the continent these years. Here's a good read from AS about the success of spanish methodology in european football. Era de las españolas http://as.com/diarioas/2015/05/26/english/1432650586_823001.html

We shall see next year how many of the "5" teams make it xD
Valencia have to qualify yet :D
Monaco and Ajax await them potentially etc

Good game though, well done Sevilla. Can't believe Mbia has a spot in the starting 11 though. Guy couldn't do anything with QPR and spent most of his time on the bench xD

I dont like when people talk about "spanish/german/whatever" domination...

Especially when teams like Real Madrid or Barcelona have less than 4 spanish players in their starting eleven and some of them are there just because reasons

Well, I think they talk about "Spanish La liga", "German Bundesliga", "England PremierLeague", and what league is better. I don't think people is talking about nationalities there.

I agree with Faruko there. I am pretty sad that no big leagues are really favouring domestic talent...
There is plenty enough of that in all countries.

The Bundesliga still favors German talent quite a bit. Last I checked, every German club had at least 50% of their roster being German. Bayern has the lowest percentage of Germans on the team and they still field probably half the damn National team.

That's true, same thing for la liga, barca also has a ton of la masia products.
The league suffering the most is the bpl, since their players are not so good, they need to poach talent from other leagues.
Just look at how few english men their last 2 champions have, chelsea and man.c.

A big part of it is also language/culture.

It's a lot harder to export German talent because German isn't nearly as widespread as a language as English or Spanish. This also makes it harder for foreigners to get into the German game as easily.

In the BPL, they just speak English, which is probably the most important global language to know today. This makes it a lot easier to import all kinds of foreign talent.

Spain can just recruit from the hundreds of millions that speak native Spanish in South/Central America, so they don't have a problem there.

If they favored domestic talent they wouldnt be big leagues. Thats just the reality.

Unfortunately all of these bigger leagues are going to be looking for global talent. And you really don't need to speak the same verbal language to play well together. It's a sport and you play and respond more with body language than trying to explain complicated concepts to each other.

It does make coaching a bit easier if there are tactical concepts that everyone needs to understand. Perhaps it is somewhat more helpful in the goalkeeper and the CB pairing.

The real issue with England is the football concepts introduced to developing talent at an early age.

Head to Head Record
Barcelona Won 2 Drawn 2 Lost 2 Scored 7 Conceded 6
Juventus Won 2 Drawn 2 Lost 2 Scored 6 Conceded 7

Team News

Barcelona go into the champions league final as over whelming favorites to lift the trophy and complete another historic treble!
They have no injury worries or concerns and have a fully fit line up to take on the Italian champions.

Possible Lineup Ter Stegen; Alves, Piqué, Mascherano, Alba; Rakitić, Busquets, Iniesta; Messi, Suárez, Neymar.

[image loading]
Juventus go into the cup final as underdogs as they face a pretty strong attacking force that is FC Barcelona. However Italian teams are ruthless and tactically sound and will give Barcelona more than a run for there money.
Bad news hit the Juventus camp with Chiellini having to pull out of the game in midweek with a calf injury and his likely replacement being out injured as well leaves them sweating on Barzagli thigh injury. This also means that Juventus will more than likely line up with a 4-4-2 rather than there famous 3-5-2

Possible Lineup Buffon; Lichtsteiner, Bonucci, Barzagli, Evra; Marchisio, Pirlo, Pogba; Vidal; Tévez, Morata.


Prediction
It all comes down to how long if it all Juventus can keep Barcelona attacking force out for and catch them on the break. If they concede early we might see an Spain vs Italy type final from the Euros, if not we may see ourselves watching a Chelsea vs Bayern 2012 finals. I however will go with a;
Barcelona 2-0 Juventus

Why don't you just say More than 1 goal in the poll instead of over 1.5 goals. 1.5 goals looks so weird .

Can't wait.
Can't see how this can go wrong unless all stars and planets align for juve.

I think the opening 10-15mins will be very fierce, juve will not park the bus from the start, they will attempt to surprise barca.
Whoever scores in these minutes will take the final, if nothing happens barca will be put in cruise control, dominating the game afterwards.
