Glad to see the thread still lives!

Btw, Ciaran, thanks for dropping that video here I'll definitely be giving it a watch!

I was actually reading through the thread from the beginning today and it's funny (and if we weren't in the position we are now, it would be far less funny lol) to get that reminder in written posts year after year of "this year is the year for us." Finally that year came and in force with us winning the treble last year, and hopefully we'll have the honour of being the first to successfully defend it this year.

It's been a really exciting CL season so far, and no just from a Bayern perspective. Olympiakos beating Man. U was probably one of my favourite moments so far. Just brilliant to watch United fans start off so sure of themselves despite the abysmal season they've had both domestically and in Europe, then to have United not even manage a single goal in Athens and barely manage an attack. I think United will win the second leg but probably another 1-0 performance for them. Barça beating City was also pretty great to watch.

I wasn't really happy with Guardiola's decisions for our lineup in the second leg against Arsenal, though. Obviously I'm happy we went through, but we could have easily managed more than a draw had he not decided to bring Müller in with less than 10 minutes to injury time. Also Martinez as centre back...you'd think Pep would have noticed at least by half-time that he should have brought him off in favour of Boateng or van Buyten...And Ribéry had no business in such a big match while not being at 100% yet, Götze neither...especially not over Müller. Anyways, what's done is done and now we wait to see who we draw for the next round.

As for the Bundesliga, obviously another great year and a real tribute to our players...it's sometimes been more exciting watching the battle for the top 6 though...I'm just hoping to hell someone...anyone put Leverkusen out of contention for a CL spot. Btw was loving Schweinsteiger's goal off the freekick against Leverkusen this weekend

Around 1:27 you can see the freekick

What's your view on Moyes, do you think he should go or wait it out? It'll be interesting to see if United's position in the Premier League and CL performance means his time with the club will be cut short this summer.

My sport of choice is and all ways will be rodeo,I have contested in all women's rodeo where we do all the rough stock events as the boy's do,even though I don't compete any more It was a blast when I did.Wrangler Jeans sponsored a team rodeo events some years back that had a ton of cash in it for the wining team's.
I also have played a lot of softball as short stop and or catcher,I watch some of the college ball games when they are on.Now,football is something I watch now and again when I get the urge too.
At the moment I am into playing pool with the A.P.A I play both 8 and 9 ball,last year my 8 ball team wen't to Vegas for the team championships where my 8 ball team won 9th in the nation.Once in a while the women's pro pool teams are on E.S.P.N. and I do watch as well as tape the shows.

We played a good match against United, but just couldn't seem to convert. I think it's again coming down to Pep's going back to fielding Müller as a false 9 instead of playing Mandzukic as a true striker from the start. Müller should have still been in the lineup, but back in midfield where he's always much more effective.

Anyways, we were saved again by Schweinsteiger and it's a big blow to us that he'll be missing the second leg, but I'm sure we'll manage.

Ideal starting lineup in the second leg, imo:

Neuer
Rafinha, Boateng, Dante, Alaba
Lahm, Kroos
Robben, Müller, Ribéry
Mandzukic

Subs: Shaqiri, Pizarro
