Madrid and Barcelona

They've turned the Champions League into La Liga

Between them they've won the last 4 CL titles ( Real Madrid winning 3 of them ) and it doesn't look like there's another side anywhere in Europe at the moment who can break this monopoly anytime soon.
This current Real Madrid side are the best I've seen in my lifetime.
Ronaldo is simply extraordinary ... he's literally running out of trophies to win and records to break
Zidane is looking a real genius as a manager as well.
Barcelona will definitely be hungrier and very motivated next season so it'll probably come down to those two spanish giants for european glory.
And with Athletico Madrid being in two of the last four CL final as well , we might have to get used to watching the La Liga title race in the Champions League for the next few years

People cry about us (and city) looking to spend crazy money trying to get players like griezzman, but we will not compete at this level without some massive investment.

Yep. These two squads are million miles ahead of anybody...

Then bayern who have a ridiculous squad too.

Bayerns squad is aging though.

Hmmm, only robben, muller and ribery who have been key to their side, lahm of course.

Plus Germany has loads of young talent they will be sweeping up in years to come.

Also Isco was marvelous last night.Best individual performance I've seen from a midfielder in a club final since Iniesta in 09 in Rome.

Thought he was really poor first half, also made a mistake when he could have put it on a plate for Ronaldo for Juve to score from the next attack. Ronnie was fuming.

Wonder if we'll ever get a Madrid vs Barca final, not even sure I want to see it tbh

Surprising Madrid Vs Barca final hasn't yet happened. Uefa will surely try to get that in place. No better time with both teams at absolute top. Barca with new management will no doubt take control of Europe again with only Madrid standing in their way really.

Isco was terrible for 65 minutes until the game was over as a contest.

I looked at the average age of their squad the other day. A lot of players in their 30s.

While Madrid side are a very good side they did rude they're luck a bit to get past Bayern

They need to scrap the seeded draw format and just have all the teams drawn out with no strings attached. So what if UEFA's Real get Bayern and Barcelona. Too much favouritism currently
