Any predictions or expectations on the final four?
I am hoping for my club FC Bayern!
UEFA Champions League

All four are good teams, and Bayern can never be just ignored, but, if Barcelona beats Inter (which should happen tomorrow), I don't see anyone stopping them.

Bayern have a good chance to get to the final as I think the German League is still tougher than the French. I'm not writing off Inter as Mourinho will play defensively and hit Barca on the couter - and Barca can leak goals. Will still be a big ask to keep Messi & co away from goal despite a sturdy Italian defense.
Does anyone have a meeting on the night of the final and be forced to make excuses to watch it?

Barcelona looks to be the strongest side at this point.
Bayern has been a little inconsistent this year - they have looked unstoppable at times, and really shaky on defense at others. They played a month of flawless football, followed by a rough 6 weeks - now I see signs of the excellence coming back.
The second game against Man U was a microchasm of their season - mind boggling bad defense, followed by a great attack and highlight-reel goals.
Arjen Robben has been absolutely brilliant for them this year - he has put them on his back numerous times. With him in top form, and Ribery healthy, I cant see them being totally counted out. They should take care of Lyon - but the champion may very well come from the Barcelona/Inter winner.

I didn't expect this. I just wouldn't bet against Barcelona just yet. A 2-0 at home and they can pass to the next round. Granted, Mourinho can still win in Barcelona, and I don't think he will simply try to hold Barcelona at bay.
The Special Triune.
