G.E.C.

I could only really half watch the match, if that. Bayern seemed a lot better than the first leg though. Some nice goals from both sides.

Still my preference Pep leaves at the end of the season, I think he'll be there for one more though.

Not sure they had a choice with Modric being out. And the less time they spend defending the better with Casillas being dodgy.

They do have players in their squad who can play at CM who would offer a bit more cover than Rodriguez and help keep Juve away from Casillas. We'll see how it goes. :pipe:

Not sure Ancelotti trusts Illaramendi, Lucas or Khedira in the big games though and Isco is actually pretty decent defensively for such a creative player.

Would like to see Juve go through tonight, not sure if they can withstand Madrid's inevitable barrage of attacks that's going to come at them though. But if anyone's defence and midfield is good enough to do it then it's Juve's, they have a more physical midifeld than Real and that could be important tonight.

Real will obviously go all out but like others have said they will have to be careful on the counter, Juve have some pace but can also hold the ball up with Morata, and they really can't run the risk of bringing people down to stop the counter-attack anywhere within 30 yards of their own goal with Pirlo on the pitch.

It just seems strange considering how shite they are without Modric and he's hardly given any of them a chance.
