Am I right?

Actually not. That's just Uli Hoeneß. I would be worried if he wouldn't make such statements. Then he'd probably be ill. There is a reason he is called "Abteilung Attacke" (attack department) of Bayern.

I'm already aware of Hoeness' eccentricities.

What disappoints me is Beckenbauer doing the usual routine of comparing Madrid with Barca considering the clash has absolutely nothing to do with Barca. Sounds like he severely underestimates them. But then again I'm not surprised considering Becks does tend to make some stupid comments. These 2 are individuals who act as the voice of Bayern.

To back it up, the statements Bayern have historically made towards Madrid ranging back into the early decade and more from their players and figures who represent.

Claudio Pizarro "We're going to put five past those clowns!" :vagi:

We won that tie thanks to a Khan mistake

What pertains to Bayern:

inferiority complex 
noun
1.
Psychiatry . intense feeling of inferiority, producing a personality characterized either by extreme reticence or, as a result of overcompensation, by extreme aggressiveness.
2.
lack of self-esteem; feeling of inadequacy; lack of self-confidence

"What I don't like about Florentino is that he bought Beckham to sell shirts. He is alright, but I don't like his wife. And if you're buying Mr. Beckham, you're also buying Mrs. Beckham, and I would never buy Mrs. Beckham."

Guess who lol

My prediction for a first leg: 2-2, Gomez to score, Ronaldo to play good game but without scoring a goal. RM to qualify to the final after 2nd leg win. I would cheer for Bayern, but if I had to bet a money, I would put it on RM qualification to the final. Expect lot of kneejerks and post match unnecessary threads

Hoeneß about.....

Christoph Daum:
"He is a self-promoter with an extraordinary penchant for megalomania. This did not change anything"

Podolski:
"If someone shoots two goals against Liechtenstein, then it has nothing to say. As our third-team league would look good "

Matthäus:
"If Matthäus would become national coach, that would be like if the boss spy of the KGB would become Chancellor"

"As long as Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and I have to say something at FC Bayern, he wouldn't evenbecome greenkeeper at the new stadium"

Klinsmann:
"Since we bought for € thousand computers. (...) With Heynckes we win games for 12.50 €, and Klinsmann we have spent a lot of money and had little success "

vanGaal:
"That was a human catastrophe, is another matter. Professionally he was a top "


...so the statements about Madrid were kind of friendly form Hoeneß

If you have the German sources for them at hand I'd volunteer to make a proper translation. You can't trust Google to properly convey the acid

"Many people tell me that Mourinho and I would get along very well. I think Mourinho and I are cut from the same cloth. I always say what I think and not talking to people to hear. Like Mourinho. "

"The conspiracy of Mourinho towards the referee, is his paranoia," said the Bayern president."

"I admire Iker Casillas, no doubt. And not just because of his qualities as a footballer, but because he is a real character. A role model. Such a thing like that. "

For a second I thought that crimson quote was Mourinho

Didn't see those. Very good quotes

“We don’t want to tell our dreams. We want to show them.”
— Cristiano Ronaldo

So, here's a non automatic translation for the Hoeneß quotes:

Hoeneß vs Dortmund CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke: "Herr Watzke is obviously telling fairy-tales about his labour costs of merely 45 mio. He can tell those to people who don't have a clue. He'd better take care not to turn into a second Willi Lemke!"

Hoeneß about van Gaal: "It is one thing that he was a disaster due to his personality, but you couldn't fault him professionally."

Hoeneß about Matthäus: "Matthäus becoming the head coach of the German NT would have been like the top spy of the Soviet Secret Service becoming Chancellor of Germany."

Hoeneß about Podolski: "If someone scores two goals against Liechtenstein that doesn't mean anything. Even our 3rd league amateur team would look good against them."

Hoeneß about David Beckham: "It is no use to get a player who is always on the cover of Bravo Sport [a teenie star magazine]. We want to have a player who is on the cover of the Kicker [most renowned football/sports magazine in Germany]."

Hoeneß about Christoph Daum: "He was a show-off with an extraordinary tendency for megalomania. So far nothing changed about this."

Hoeneß about former Bayern coach Klinsi: "So we bought computers for several thousand Euros. (...) With Heynckes we win matches for 12.50 Euros, and with Klinsmann we spent a lot and had little success."

Hoeneß about Matthäus: "As long as Karl-Heinz Rummenigge and I have to say anything at FC Bayern, he will not even become the greenkeeper of our stadium."

Hoeneß about Mourinho: "Mourinho's conspiracy theories involving the referees are his paranoia."

I would be content with a draw. Bayern's defense is slightly under rated here so I'm not gonna pretend our forwards will rip them up because they won't.

Robben: we need to be at 120per cent against Madrid

JH: only Barca and Madrid are better than us.


Can't wait already...

Madrid have touched down in Munich. Many fans greeted them at the airport.

For me 1-1 is great if we conserve our energy for the Clasico. We pummel Barca, then focus our whole energy on Bayern at home

A 1-1 would be a great result for Madrid.

I always thought Madrid was playing home first

Ah well makes more sense of both spanish have 2nd leggs at home

We were lucky with the draw. Barca almost always play the second leg at home though.

Hoeneß verbal all-out assault made the papers, so it's not like too many agree with him.

And "you're a real Hoeneß" has been an insult in certain parts for decades. xD

The foul on mathaus that got Juanito banned for 5 years

"The past is all about meaningless numbers," Mourinho told reporters. "History will not play a factor tomorrow.

"This will be a different match from the previous ones. This is a semi-final, those who play it want to win. Bayern have the special motivation as the final is in Munich, but we have the motivation of being here for the second year in a row.

"We will see what happens."

"To tell you the truth, security issues are where Uefa means business," he said. "There will surely be plenty of firefighters if there are fires or hells, as you said.

"Bayern will play with a lot of heart, which is nice in football, but they can also play very well.

"I think that this match will be more tactical than normal and that it will be a great game."

"Webb is a good referee, with a lot of experience in matches of this level," Mourinho added.

"Madrid have good sensations with every referee.

"We will help him do his work for him to make good calls, knowing that he could err and that there could be a debatable penalty, like one of those which give three points."

"More important than my opinion is that of those who are more important and more credible than me," the 49-year-old affirmed.

"Uli Hoeness, Franz Beckenbauer, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Oliver Kahn and Ottmar Hitzfeld say that Madrid are not a great side, that Bayern are stronger, and that we have a complex with the 'dark beast'.

"We will be the underdogs in this tie."

"I cannot work in a country where I need a translator, that is impossible for me," he explained.

"Communication is key, talking to the players, setting up the training sessions and I do not speak German.

"It would be very hard for me to coach in Germany. But I really like the Bundesliga, it is an amazing league, and not many coaches would say no to Bayern.

Mamad wrote:"The past is all about meaningless numbers,"

Everybody who loves watching football should remember this very well.

BTW none of the ones mentioned by Mou said that Real aren't a great side, it's just that many of them think Bayern are favorites.
And I'm not even sure about Beckenbauer and Kahn, and most importantly: Henyckes called Real favorites on live TV. Mou just loves being the underdog

i was kidding

i was looking around lol.com and youtube reposted a bunch of quotes no pun intended

Gomez: We'll start a fire

Mourinho: We'll call the firefighters

Spoiler:

"Uli Hoeness, Franz Beckenbauer, Karl-Heinz Rummenigge, Oliver Kahn and Ottmar Hitzfeld say that Madrid are not a great side, that Bayern are stronger, and that we have a complex with the 'dark beast'.

thats' bullshit, none of them said Madrid is not a great side. They only say that Madrid is, in comparison to Barca, beatable.
