    Chelsea won't get spanked...not at all. They may not win but they won't get thrashed
    They probably will.

    I want Bayern to win it, I've always had a soft spot for them.

    I'd prefer anyone to win it other than Barca tbh (and Chelsea maybe). I don't hate them, watch them play most weekends, it's just boring having one team dominate.

    Wow seems like anyone who says Barcelona gets negged. Living in fear. Bayern would be great too see a team win in their stadium.

    Barca.

    Partly because I have a £10 bet with my boyfriend - he reckons Real, I reckon Barca. So I want a Real - Barca final to make our bet a little more interesting.
    Plus I've had a soft spot for Barca ever since I watched them play at the Nou Camp as spent an extortionate amount on a "Messi" shirt.

    Anyone BUT Barcelona.

    I know I am gonna get negs for this most likely, but I really don't see why people say that Barcelona play the "most beautiful" football or have such a "wonderful" style. Personally, I feel their style of football is incredibly boring. The amount of silly little passes they do is just plain tedious. Yes, they possess many good footballers and have moments of genius; which makes me think that the people who claim that they play such beautiful football actually rarely watch a 90 minute Barcelona game, and have gotten their views from YouTube compilations and media hype.

    I'd like to see Bayern win it. They play good football and winning it home would be something quite special for their fans.

    Bayern! Would definitely say that they are my second team after Arsenal.

    The only reason you don't like it is because you don't like Barcelona. It's understandable you think it's boring when the team you want to win never has the ball.

    I don't like Barcelona for many reasons, one of which being I find their style of football very tedious. It doesn't matter who the opposition is. I prefer watching Napoli play to Barcelona, despite them being several classes below them in terms of quality.

    just because you dont want them too doesnt mean they wont. the other 3 teams are clearly a league ahead of chelsea who were lucky to get past Napoli.

    I really dislike all of those teams to an extent. Munich just happens to agitate me the least.

    That's down to personal preference really. I watch 90 minutes of most Barcelona matches and enjoy them. I feel as though their style of play is less "random" than when I see the sorts of games with a goal almost scored every 5 minutes at either end of the pitch.

    True, they don't play "beautiful" football for the entire 90 minutes. But it still feels like more of a team than 11 individuals.
