Heynckes truly did an amazing job. Still the biggest shame he wasn't allowed to build on his treble winning side.

Agreed. Just like madrid rejects Robben and Sneijder should never have been key players for treble winning Inter and Bayern

You still watch this shit?

You truly get a sense of how big of a fraud the bald fraud really is when you look at Heynckes' Bayern before and after Guardiola left.

Gotta say I agree a lot with what Sport is saying.... Real do seem to get a lot of luck, but at the same time really, Zidane seem to have given and developed this Real team with a lot of confidence knowing that they can win games at the end no matter the situation. They are mentally strong and clinical. A lot of teams make mistakes vs team, all top teams top players, and the reason is the way Real is positionally set up and pressure, forcing these mistakes. Bayern deserves a lot of credit though for this performance, it looked as though they have developed a fear playing Real in the first leg after the loss, and they played much better in this second leg. Small margins, but Real again u felt probably just were that bit better overall...

Hope Im wrong and Liverpool beats them in the final though

Tbf Juve has won it the same number of times in the last decade as Barca has won La Liga (albeit consecutively). Yet people still think of La Liga as a competitive league

La Liga always sneaks by from these discussions while Barca keeps winning, and this year, winning easily. Juve, Barca and Bayern all have 7/10 from this decade. EPL comes out better with 3 titles of each of the 3 biggest teams.

Maybe it has something to do with Real Madrid winning 3 CLs in 4 years? Kinda ups the competiveness abit don't it?

It really doesn't. That's a different competition.
