Another significance from tonight is that Mourinho is now almost certain to be managing Real Madrid next season.

I hope so, maybe that would silence Mourinho? Doubtful, but I live in hope. One good thing that may come from tonight is that they finally realise that Zlatan can't cut it, and do something about it. Still puzzles me why they didn't take Villa when they had the chance and he would have been so much cheaper and effective, also a proven big-game player.

Come on Ross! What sort of a final will it be? Mario Balotelli to silence his critics?

Don't tempt fate Ross!

Unusual to see so many big decisions going against a team over both legs.

Based on his form this season, Henry being pitted against Maicon would probably just have made it even more frustrating to watch. Being patient is one thing, but with no goal threat from Inter, Pique should have been up front a lot earlier.

Come on Scud. I would call his tactics in the game against Chelsea genius, everyone expected him to park the bus then, but he surprised everyone with a very attack-minded line up. They went at Chelsea from the start and went through deservedly. Genuine question, What was genius about Inter's tactics tonight?

The man's a genius? What was genius about what he achieved tonight? "OK, lads, go out there tonight, you 3 on Messi, the rest of you stay in around the box, Eto'o and Milito, under no circumstances  must you cross the halfway line." I could've done that!

RE: The yellow card. Before the match Thiago Motta accused the Barca players-rightly so, in some cases-of being divers, in that case keep your hands down by your side! Red card or not, he had already been booked, and would have gone anyway.

Julio Cesar
Maicon Vidic Pique A. Cole
Iniesta Xavi Sneijder
Messi Villa Robben

Probably should have a more defensively minded midfielder in there but I'm feeling adventurous.

Robben was brilliant the when he ever played for Real Madrid, his injury-proneness was his downfall, same at Chelsea, although to a lesser extent. Marca or AS, can't mind which, called him the glass man. He was largely responsible for Madrid's brief resurgence in last year's la liga, before it was ended in the 6-2 clasico at the Bernabeu. I'd still rather have him than Ronaldo. No place for Torres?

On current form I'd have Robben in ahead of Ronaldo, both are in great form but Robben got Bayern where they are single handedly.

HS, the few episodes i seen had "experts" explaining why one side would win, like in the Spartan one some eejit was trying to explain why a spear was better than a sword, and that sort of crap. Is it in the same in this episode? That's the part I want to see.

Was this ever televised on bravo? Seen almost every other episode, but never this one.

Bought BOB on dvd a few months ago, thought it was excellent. I hate watching these shows on TV though, the suspense kills me! I have to watch 2 or 3 at a time. Anyone have any idea when this will be out on DVD?

Cheers, must look out for them. I hope they're as entertaining as watching Andy Gray play with the new equipment on Sky Sports
