Bastian SchweinsteigerThe common mistake which journalists outside of Germany make is a rather simple one; they almost always tend to mention Bastian Schweinsteiger as the captain of Bayern. While he is not the captain, one can understand why they make this mistake. Without Schweinsteiger, Bayern is not even half…

Last season the calls for an all Spanish final at Wembley from the fans were huge. This was almost shameful, considering that there is no greater view than watching the home fans celebrate the homecoming of their team. Football was coming home; Bayern München was coming home; the Champions League was coming home. But somehow, somewhere, between Arjen Robben’s penalty miss and Didier Drogba’s fatal kiss, the trophy slipped under Bayern’s nose and traveled on a plane to London.
Beating Manchester United at their own backyard is an achievement any side can be proud of. The achievement becomes even more special for a side like City that for almost two decades, could only look in envy over the success their neighbours had. However, the winds are clearly changing in Manchester with the ‘Blue moon’ rising.
England in particular will take this tie seriously ahead of their World Cup qualifiers in March. Both the teams bolster some amazing attacking talents but the match may be ultimately decided on which team dominates the midfield.
Following injury to Manchester united man Michael Carrick his fellow teammate Tom Cleverly is expected to replace him in the starting lineup, with Arsenal prodigy Jack Wilshere and captain Steven Gerrard likely to partner him in the middle of the park.
The best thing about this trio is the flexibility they offer, all three players are capable of playing the holding as well as the advanced roles. This gives Roy Hodgson the option of using a 4-3-3 formation.
Cardiff City’s road to the 2012 Carling Cup final at Wembley
First Round – August 10, 2011: Oxford United 1-3 (a.e.t.) Cardiff City
• Conway gave Cardiff City the lead within the first quarter of an hour but Oxford United equalized after 30 minutes. Both sides failed to take the lead during normal time so extra-time football was needed. Whittingham (98’) and Jarvis (121’) settled things on a positive note for the visitors.
The Merseyside Reds have a jinx to break and “Captain Planet” is keen to help his team reach the new Wembley at last. Manchester United can boast of having made 11 trips to the new home of English football even though there have been mixed results. Chelsea, meanwhile, have played at Wembley 9 times already since the stadium opened 4 years ago.
28th of May will be the date where Manchester United get a clear shot of revenge at Barcelona for what they caused at Rome in 2009. Pep Guardiola's men were the more spectacular team on that day as Barcelona beat United 2-0 to lift the Champions League trophy.
Champions League 2011: Few Goals, Strong Records
Manchester United’s run in the group stages of the 2010/11 UEFA Champions League produced the following statistics: 3 away matches, 3 away victories; 6 matches played and only 7 goals scored but also 1 goal conceded and up to 5 clean sheets.
Thanks to these numbers, Manchester United comfortably grabbed tickets to feature in the Round of 16. Like Barcelona, they successfully went through the group stages unbeaten. Like Barcelona, they also clinched 14 point out of a possible 18.
Champions League 2011 Group Stages: No Defeat For Favourites Barcelona
From match-day 1, Barcelona always looked certain of reaching the knock-out stages of this season’s UEFA Champions League tournament with quite a lot of ease. Greek giants Panathinaikos suffered the mesmerizing cruelty of Barcelona’s distinctive possessive game as the Catalans kicked off their campaign by beating them 5-1 on home soil.
Later on, Panathinaikos went on to lose the second leg 3-0. Now if Rubin (away in Russia) and København (away in Demark) created a few headaches to Barcelona, they couldn’t prevent the 2009 Champions League winners from securing the top spot in Group D.
At the Camp Nou, resilient Rubin bowed to Barca’s authority under a 2-0 defeat in December 2010. The story had been exactly the same for København 2 months before.
Wembley will be the place. But overall, it will be a repeat of the 2009 Champions League final at Rome as Barcelona get ready to take on Manchester United later this month. However, Cristiano Ronaldo is not amongst the ranks at United and Roy Keane believes that the score line will be different this time around.
How many times have Manchester United done this over the past few years? With Cristiano Ronaldo in the side, the lifted the Champions league trophy in 2008. A year after that they suffered a defeat in the Champions League final at Rome, thanks to Barca's recent rise to prominence under Pep Guardiola. Then, they lost their Portuguese talisman and while many expected United to be a shadow of the team with Ronaldo in it, players like Antonio Valencia, Wayne Rooney and Javier Hernandez have ensured that the Devils remain a competitive side.
Qualifying for their 3rd Champions League final in four years is definitely a massive feat for Sir Alex Ferguson's men. While they have had lots of lucky moments this season, consistency has really been United's key to success so far. Not forgetting the presence of oldies like Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes.
Manchester United have always had this patient virtue of trusting in players who perform together as a team. Ever since Sir Matt Busby was at the helm about half a century ago. The Busby Babes like they were hailed, represented something like a finished article at that time. The magic and spirit in the squad was super strong that even the Munich disaster in 1958 failed to stop them from entering the FA Cup Final that very same season, nor win the Champions League ten years after losing almost their whole squad.
It has always been a fundamental aspect of the legacy at Old Trafford. There is a believe here that no one is bigger than the club. However, it is the collective team spirit of the United players that has seen them win games week in, week out. Nonetheless, the Red Devils are also capable of producing some magical individual moments, which by all means can win them matches.
Jose Mourinho won the UEFA Champions League with Inter last season by defeating Barcelona in the semi-finals of the competition before triumphing over Bayern Munich at the Santiago Bernabeu. Tonight, there will be a repeat of the 2010 Champions League final and Jose Mourinho has encouraged his former side to beat the Germans once again.
