This year, in Champions League's semis, we already have teams of three countries: Barcellona (Spain), Inter (Italy), and a French team for sure (Lyon or Girondins).
The 4th country will be either Germany or England. If it were Germany (Bayern) it would be a debacle, an incredible rout for the English Soccer. Vice versa if Manchester United passes the English soccer would still have a chance, even to win the final.
For sure the English soccer seems not to be as strong as in the past years. What do you think are the reasons for this? And, by the way, who will win the match between ManU and Bayern?
I believe it'll be Bayern, although I hope to see a ManU-Inter or ManU-Barca final.

ManU played very well until the first German goal. Then the overwhelming German (and Dutch) belief and conviction made it. It's incredible there are no English teams in Semis! Maybe their dominant period (for a few years) is over and soccer level has increased in several countries (France, Germany, Italy).

And the fourth team is German :). It is a fantastic result for UEFA. After 5 years of domination from English teams, this seems to be a welcome relief. I would love to see one of the three Bayern, Lyon or Inter win to bring a new flavor to the tournament. But of course, I would equally love to see Messi blasting through all these teams.
Cheers!

I think Bayern will reach the semis ahead of Man utd. Given their home win against the English side, and the injury to Mna Utd's key player Rooney, it seems that this time around no English team will be there in the semis. So me hoping for a Bayern vs Inter Milan clash in the finals.

For me...Inter is champion. Jose Mourinho is number one and he will know how annihilate him the Messi.
Inter - Lyon i hope so
Bayern do not like, is a lucky team, starting from the offside goal against fiorentina, and finish with the chance to play with an extra man and substitute Rooney.
ersonally, I do not like Jose mOurinho but I must bow before him as ready for every game and how football is good connoisseur.
