Bayern v Barca
Dortmund v Real Madrid

The Munich v Barca match is pretty exciting. It's certainly a finals caliber match. Both fixtures start off in Germany and finish in Spain.

Epic semis. God I hope the final isn't El Clasico.

I have a Spanish co-worker that is a Madrid supporter. He would be a nervous wreck. As much as he wants to win, he can't stand to lose to Barcelona. I'm rooting for Bayern v Madrid. I don't really care to see Bayern v Dortmund.

I think it's more likely to be RM v Bayern the traditional CL matchup. BVB wont find it easy to win/tie for the 3rd and 4th times this season with RM. I'm weirdly optimistic about Bayern over Barca, they just don't really scare me this year. If kroos was healthy so Robben didn't have to play then it would be much less stressful
Edit: jupp also had good success against barca when he was at Bilbao. He knows spanish soccer pretty well, probably better than any German out there right now.

I still think this is Bayern's competition to lose.

If Dante and Lahm can avoid getting that yellow card suspension then I'll have a little more faith. The Kroos injury just really sucks, at least he was able to contribute for basically a full season

Are they going to sell Robben? Sorry if this is a super obvious and dumb question.

Well I am personally pulling for Dortmund since they are my second favorite team behind Liverpool.

I imagine it would depend on who they decide to bring in. No clue if Robben wants a move or not.

I don't really follow Bayern much, so it seems like he comes off the bench a lot prior to kroos being injured.

He just seems expensive for a super sub.

When everyone is healthy he is not a starter anymore. Müller is better and more influential. Contract wise he does make a lot, but the club is way profitable so it doesn't matter really. It's up for debate tbh, no one has any idea what kind of Bayern Pep has in mind. KHR said that 1 or 2 big signings is all Pep will be needing. Pep also said he thinks very highly of Pierre-Emile højbjerg and Patrick Weihrauch, 2 reserve team kids. One is a striker the other a CM.

which is insane considering how close we came to knocking them out, somehow.
