    No it's still there; I put privacy because my shipmates keep asking me more and more about why I was emotional and it got annoying when people didn't do their research.

    So Monaco vs Juventus while Real Madrid vs Alt. Madrid.

    Pretty happy considering that Juventus is the weakest of the three possible opponents for Monaco.

    I disagree. On paper for me it's Atletico, surely this year, but I don't think that Juve is even weaker then Real. Both matches for me are very equal, slightly advantage to Juve and Real but of course that both Monaco and Atletico have good chances as well to qualify. But anyway, for me Juve is the favorite to go all the way.

    I think that Juve is the best team based on how they're playing and on how good job Allegri has done. They're a defensive powerhouse with a pretty decent scoring punch that comes from a wide and flexible attack. I also think that on paper they're favorites against a less experienced Monaco that seems to have a lot of options forward but have holes on their defense. If Monaco can have a night where besides scoring a few they can keep Juve from punching back they'll advance but I think that is not an easy combination to happen.

    On the other side, I think Atletico is focused on the UCL and they really don't have a lot to do in La Liga, so I can see Simeone putting all his chips on those matches. However, Real has a deep team and can rest their starters (specially if they close La Liga on Sunday). Furthermore, they seem to have the psychological edge against Atletico and Zidane has made them almost unbeatable, regardless of how they play. For me, Real is the clear favorite because they believe they can win any match.

    Atleti will try to play head games with Real and I think will play for a couple of 0-0s and a penalty shootout in the Vicente Calderon 2nd leg. That is the way I see them advancing.

    As for Falcao and Monaco they will be battered and bruised by this Juve team and won't be able to do their free flowing beautiful futbol i love.
    I hope Falcao survives all the hits that are coming his way.
    Cuadrado on the other hand will be crucial for Juve since Moncao's back line players love to go up offensively which leaves them susceptible to counters defensively.

    You can't be serious? Have you been watching Champions? Juventus have been the most consistent and solid team currently in the semis. Monaco played against a shitty Man City and a terrorized Dortmund that shouldn't have played so soon after an attack. I give merit to Monaco but Juventus is no joke and are definitely the favorites to take it this year.

    I think Juve has their weaknesses though. Higuain seems to disappear in big games and misses opportunities most expect him to bury. We also don't know how healthy Dybala will be so in some ways saying Juve is the weakest could have some merit but at this stage of the competition there are No easy teams.

    Cristian Ronaldo is allowed to score offside goals. Make Real the best. Weakest to me is Atletico. Juve won 3-0 against Barca!!!!

    So to count them out seems pretty foolish.

    Juve and Real to me are the strongest two left. Real the refs will help. Monaco not to shit on them was helped greatly by the terrorist attack. Didn't have it happen to their bus and injury their players a day before. Not monacos fault obviously but messed up they were focus to play right away

    Monaco are great in attack. Unpredictable but their defense is extremely suspect. Atletico might not be as good as recent years but I'm positive if they had drew Monaco they would've won with their tactics. Idk how you guys think Juve are the weakest link lol. They beat Barca at home and should've won at Camp Nou.

    One can also say Juve is the weakest just based on the last few seasons. Atletico is on the cusp of going to their third Final in 4 seasons. Real Madrid is trying to win their 2nd in a row.
    That said, Juve is no slouch and for this season has looked fantastic in the earlier stages. We just don't know how guys like Higuain, Dybala and Cuadrado will do in a Final. And that concerns people.

    Falcao will face PSG in 3 days. Kinda hoped that he and Mappe had been subbed out sooner for more rest.

    I think the Ligue 1 title is far more important for Monaco than the Coupe de France. They might shunt this competition.

    More trophies the better. It'll give credit to the league if other teams that aren't PSG win trophies.

    Si Monaco gana la champions y quizas la liga de Francia, si creen que Falcao tenga Algo de posibilidad de ganar el balon de Oro?

    Dependerá de cómo actúe durante el resto del año...UEFA Supercup, French Supercup, FIFA club world cup, etc.

    Tendría que mantener la consistencia para ser nominado

    No. Right now Mbappe is getting all the attention and hype, so Falcao is not even considered the best player in Monaco

    Regardless PSG is no pushover and having more talent helps the team win. I just hope that this doesn't bite them in the ass and they end up losing.
