Altough I cannot express my sadness into words as a Bayern Munchen fan, I wish to congratulate the champions Chelsea and their warrior spirit.

Maybe except Alaba, I think Gustavo and Badstuber were rightly shown yellow card. But the system is indeed flawed. A final should allow the teams in their full strenght. It is probably that Bayern will request such thing after they tried to do with Ribery in 2009 and Beckenbauer fighting for players not to be injured in national teams. However, even if UEFA decided to do such change, it couldn't come in effect in the currently played year.

It is to great concern to us the defending line, hopefully for us Tymoshchuk will put a great display, Buyten is higly unlikely to show up. And the middle is without a defensive role now that Gustavo misses too, a key miss more important than Badstuber.

Hi Chelsea fans. Saw this adress on the bayern forum and decided to come by. Altough I wanted to find a topic about the Real vs Bayern match here (was curious what Chelsea fans thought about it) I am happy Bayern and Chelsea have defeated the two overestimated Spanish teams. A warm welcome to Chelsea to Munich, you are a very strong team that defeated us last time in UCL, therefore we have great fear. Let the best team win, I'm sure a non-spanish final will be a great final.
