    What did Lichtsteiner do other than the constant shirt holding at set pieces?

    I genuinely can't remember, did he do something else?

    He basically roughed up Hooper then dived when Brown roughed him up.

    We should have been wiser.

    * sake :smiley-laughing002: I thought it must have been more due to the fact we still hold ridiculous grudges about it. We should be mad at the ref for not penalising it.

    Was more over the course of the two games he was at it and he was dropping like a fly anytime anyone gets near him. Hate players like that, if you dish it out don't be a *.

    He is a cheating little * that gives it out but can't take it back without trying to con the ref.

    A guy that thinks he is sleekit, the worst type of footballer.

    Yup, like Pepe at Real. I don't mind footballers who dish it out but ones who can't take it back as well do my * in.

    Imagine Roy Keane, Paddy Vieira etc. falling at the drop of the hat and rolling about greeting to the ref to book players/send them off? If you want to be a hard player be a proper one for * sake.

    He'll be at it versus Barca no doubt. Barca will need to try to avoid conceding cheap corners and free kicks.

    Bump this motha' cause the final is on Saturday.


    Chiellini has been ruled out, which is a big blow to Juve. I'm fancying Barca to win 2 or 3 nil.

    I imagine the line-ups will be:

    Ter Stegen
    Alves Pique Mascherano Alba
    Busquets
    Rakitic Iniesta
    Messi Suarez Neymar

    Buffon
    Lichtsteiner Bonucci Barzagli Evra
    Pirlo
    Marchisio Vidal Pogba
    Tevez
    Morata

    If I was managing either team, i'd play Xavi instead of Iniesta and Llorente instead of Morata. Llorente could bully Mascherano in the air and be a threat at set peices and Xavi never gets a start nowadays but I think he's still better than Rakitic and Iniesta.

    Iniesta has been in sensational form lately. He offers a lot more at this stage than Xavi, IMO. Has to start.

    Amazing to think he hasn't scored in the league or Europe all season as well.

    Chillieni's been ruled out. Major blow for Juve, who's the back up for them?

    Not the type of defender I'd fancy against Neymar, Messi and Suarez.

    :56: Not at all, no. If I was a betting man, I'd be putting money on Barca winning by a big margin. This will be a one-sided final, IMO.

    Nah but Barzagli loves a physical contest more than anything, not the type who likes wee passing movements in and around him! Think Chiellini is possibly one of the best bets against them actually. Juve must be gutted.

    Only way I can see it.

    Only seen them play a couple of times but Juve don't really seem that great. Obviously they have talent to get this far but Barca are on a different level.
