For all of you football fans out there, Who do you think will win the Champions league final?
AC Milan? The Rossoneri.
or,
Liverpool FC? The Reds.
The poll is not public (so we can't laugh at whoever votes for the wrong team - sorry!) and ends on the 23rd of May, which is the day of the final.
I'm going to stick my neck out and predict AC Milan because of the way that they played against Man United, and because Liverpool were absolutely dreadful against Chelsea; lucky goal and Reina made some decent saves in the Penalties which probably won't save them again vs Milan. AC Milan are determined after what happened in Istanbul, and they look a lot better. They have more quality and have two possible x-factors:
Kaka, the ultimate offensive player. He missed a penalty today, but with the way he has scored in the CL, I think he will find the back of the net more than not.
Gattuso, the ultimate defensive player. He managed to more than completely neutralize Cristiano Ronaldo, and is a physical player who provides a will to win for the team.
Liverpool's one chance is if Steven Gerrard and their starting striker (possible Peter Crouch?) are both on form. Gerrard needs to play well in order to make the rest of the team play well, so if he misses a few good chances then I think Liverpool can get on the bus to Athens airport.
