Football Fanats 2014 - The year of World Cup

[Usrin]

Salzburg? They are knocked out from EL by Basel.

Salzburg? They are knocked out from EL by Basel.

Somebody was sleeping during the match...

Whatever... Juventus will get the easiest opponent.

As for me, power rankings at the moment:

CL
1 Real Madrid (Ancelotti fits simply better than the "Not Really Special One")
2 Bayern München (although they kick ass both in CL and Bundesliga, Guardiola wants to build a new Barca from Bayern, but they have totally different strengths - first of all, BM is not a smurf team )
3 Barcelona (not enough hungry + Martino is a crappy trainer)
4 Paris SG (Ibra's renaissance)
5 Chelsea (Mourinho's teams play ugly, but efficient football)
6 Atletico Madrid (their performance in Spain is amazing, but still not a top team in Europe)
7 Manchester United (Moyes is pathetic)
8 Borussia Dortmund (the whole team is a lot weaker than last year + Lewandowski didn't show that much in this season)

EL
1 Juventus (eternal cheaters  )
2 Valencia (probably the 3rd strongest Spanish team of the last decade)
3 Sevilla (probably the 4th strongest Spanish team of the last decade)
4 Benfica (I hope they'll win EL - unfortunately they won't)
5 Porto (quite a weak season from the strongest Portugal team)
6 Lyon (where are the Real Madrid killers?)
7 Alkmaar (dirty lucky Usrin!!! )
8 Basel (Swiss football? Don't make me laugh. Okay, I know, they were there in 2013.)

Champions League:

Atletico - Chelsea
Paris SG - Bayern
Real - Barcelona
Manchester Utd - Dortmund


Europa League:

Juventus - Alkmaar
Sevilla - Porto
Benfica - Valencia
Lyon - Basel

Champions' League: 0 correct tips from everyone.

So... Atletico (weaker than Barca, but they know how to kill their game), Real, Chelsea, Bayern. UEFA wants to see Real-Bayern finale.

[BonzaiJoe]

So do I. Those are clearly the best teams.

But of course if either of them will face Barcelona, I hope Barcelona wins.

All I want to see is a serious injury of cr. Or a missed (and fatal) Panenka-style penalty from him in the shootout.

Go, goat!

Vendsyssel - Brønshøj 0-3
Tottenham - Southampton 3-2

Now we only need AGF to win tonight vs Esbjerg.
