UEFA Champions League 2015/16

Cup competitions like this is a win at all costs, something which probably suits Ateltico more than any of the other big teams.

 

Aye agree the guy is one of the best on the planet and a total warrior aswell, if you have him leading your team out you have a chance imo

 

That'll be rectified in a few weeks time

 

He is easily a better player than both them two, and Chelski didn't want to sell him he wanted back to Atletico as he couldn't settle, if you think Azpilicueta is better than Luis then im totally amazed

 

Hope City win it.

 

Football lost

I can't wait till Real hammer them and pop back in here..

 

I actually would prefer that to Real

 

If he doesn't, then he will have failed twice on the biggest stage of club football.

 

He played 15 times for Chelsea not bad in one season for somebody that couldn't get a game, and in your opinion who are better in his position in the world, and please dont mention Marcelo again the guy cant defend for fucksake

 

Filipe Luis is a fantastic left back. Might not be the best but he's up there.

 

I'm not bothered about Atletico's style of play. Too many teams at the top level play the same way and it becomes a case of who has the best player on the day to make the difference.

Here is a team without a real top level star who defend, deny their opponents space and work hard as a group.

 

I agree and never actually said the best, i said arguably which on his game he certainly is but thats my opinion

 

I don't know why it never worked out at Chelsea because every time I've seen him play, pre and post Chelsea he's top class.

I'd easily have him before Azpilicueta.

 

Alaba probably but not Alba. Never been impressed with him defensively.

 

I will give you Alaba but Alba is far to small and his positional sense is more than suspect, my main point being this guy is up there and it just never worked out at Chelski mate

 

Agree Azpilicueta has been shocking some of the games ive seen him, but anytime i see Luis he is steady as * and more than gets forward aswell

 

I actually think you're right. As much as I don't want them to, I think Atletico will do it this time.

It takes a very shrewd manager to break Atletico's tactics down and to outsmart Simeone. I'm not sure Zinedine Zidane is that guy. I could easily see the final being like tonight's game. Real will have oodles of possession but won't be able to do a whole lot with it. When they start getting frustrated, Atletico will probably break away and score. Or they'll win on penalties after a boring 0-0 draw.
