Like the FFP rules will change anything :lol:
True that, but I really don't want Bayern Munchen to dominate the coming 30 fucking years. And it's very likely that'll happen, the amount of people that visit those matches, the amount of money they have, the lack of competition in their league.....
So many factors, I really don't want them to win the CL already, it'll only get worse then.

the lack of competition in their league.....

Since the 2005-2006 season, the Bundesliga has had more different winners (5 teams) than the Premier League (3 teams), Serie A (3 teams) and La Liga (2).

I'm pretty sure I read that Bayern has sold out their stadium every single match, for the past 7 years. I really don't find the article anymore, but I doubt those other stadiums can say that?

When Bayern finish paying off their stadium, they'll be the richest club out there (own money I mean, not from external money injectors). And if Fiar Play comes through in a really harsh way, it's over for all the other league except Bundesliga (and a few crappy others like the Belgian one :))

I knew you'd bring that up :) But I'm more talking about their absolute dominance in everything in their league. No one comes near their titles/cups/history. No one comes near their budget. No one is able to withstand Bayern when they want a player. They are just able to buy the best player of every team, and there isn't a lot the other teams can do (Götze last week too, just weakening the opposition to keep the opposition weak).

Bayern is really a very big 'threat' IMHO, I don't like them, and I don't want them to win the CL.

Too little too late? Fact is if both CR07 & Ozil would have played at their usual level, Madrid would have scored a whole lot more.

Same goes for Dortmund players of course, the chances they had :o

if Man Utd dont buy another goddamn central midfielder this year, im going to fucking lose it.

and it looks like Newcastle is going to get relegated, because Wigan are the masters of escape. last year bluestar was laughing at us for not winning the league, im going to laugh my head of when Newcastle get relegated.

Newcastle :'(
Such a nice club, compared to Wigan. So much budget too. It's a shame if they relegate....

And SAF retiring, what a great honor for Swansea to be his last opponents :tpi:

No more SAF... *sigh*

Well, it's not like he's riding off into the sunset entirely... he'll be director or whatever the position is called. The club should be just fine.
