Champions League futbol

What are your top three picks for the winners of this year's Champions League title? Mine are Real Madrid CF, FC Bayern Munich and FC Barcelona. I am partial to Scottish and German teams since those groups represent my heritage. My favorite team is Borussia Dortmund but I have a very hard time believing they can muster a win against the present titans of European Futbol.

Those three are solid picks. If i had to pick one, I would go with Real. Their depth is insane. Chelsea may be a sleeper.

What baff.es me is that Bayern Munich played 0:0 against Doneszk - but hey, that was in the Ukraine, maybe there was mortar fire onto the field?

I hope Borussia Dortmund will stay strong and wiüpe ot Juventus. Dortmund was last in our national league for a short time, would you believe this!

Yet, Real Madrid is VERY hard to beat.
 
I think there is only one good English team, the others all have no chance of winning the CL. Chelsea are different, you never know with that side

Good to see David Luis showing off the defensive prowess he demonstrated in the World Cup versus Germany.
 
There are the 3 obvious teams like you say, but I think we're going to be in for a surprise this time around, I feel it!
 
Very partial to Barca, but the team to watch is Paris St. Germaine. And Madrid is kinda like the Cowboys of the NFL. No one is better at messing a game up for them than they are. :)
 
It's going to take something special to beat Barca
Atletico could be that special thing. They are talented and tough, they never give up, the kind of team who harrass their opponents all game long. If there's one team that coul beat Barça before the final, it's Atletico.

And Paris SG is gonna destroy M. City :ak47:
 
This season is gonna be tough. Barca can actually be defeated as Real has proven in El Clasico. On the other hand they, Real, just lost against the total underdog Wolfsburg. PSG can defeat anyone as they have proven against Chelsea in the last round, but then they only play to a draw against a clearly inferior ManCity team. Bayern is completely unpredictable at the moment. Soft as teddybears for 80 minutes but then suddenly they mercilessly dominate their opponents, ripping them apart within minutes. The only team I'd say has no chance of winning the trophy this season is Benfica.
My guess would be Barca or PSG, but like I said, this season there is no safe bet.
 
Well, quarterfinals are through and what did I say? It's everybodys game this season. Barca and PSG are out. I was already seeing those two play the final. Well, that's not gonna happen.
Gotta go with Chopper3000 now: Real Madrid is most likely to win this season. Atlético may be the hungriest and probably most dangerous team still in the competition, but against Reals, ManCitys or Bayerns superstar line-up and training staff? Possible? Maybe, but I don't see it. I mean, just the starting line-ups (without the bench, the trainers and their staff, the medical staff etc.) of Real and ManCity together are worth more than one billion Euros. That's just insane.
 
Anyone else feel like UEFA will fix the semi final draw to avoid having an all Spanish final?

I'm betting that the draw is Athletico vs Real and Man City vs Munich
