The D-Day is just around the corner! With the red devils eager to add another trophy to their glittering cabinet, the Champions League final promises a mouth watering finale. They are all ready for the final battle and in Rooney, Ronaldo, Vidic, Ferdinand and Van der Sar, they do have the firepower to bring any team crashing down to earth.

But....but...What stands between Man U and the trophy are the Catalan giants, who in all honesty, can stop Man U dead in their tracks. Never before have I seen such an array of individual brilliance brought together to perform in unison on the field. Barca can field a starting eleven which would put a 'Championship Manger' team to shame. In Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, Etoo and Henry, they have potential match winners all over the place. Watching then perform their well orchestrated moves is pure magic. Lets hope the Spanish magic and the English resilience bring out an entertaining final!

Players to watch:
Man U: Rooney, Ronaldo and Vidic: The Ro-Ro combination has been quite deadly and can turn games around in a minute. Much will be expected out of them. At the back Vidic will have to be on his toes to keep the pacey Barca attack quiet and he has been a revelation for United. They need one more good game from him to finish a successful season.

Barca: Messi, Iniesta and Xavi: Barcelona has been the flamboyant team and they depend much on their attack. With create mid fielders such as Iniesta and Xavi, who can score and provide the final through pass, Barca are a force to reckon and the strikers will depend on their service. Messi, on the other hand, is a handful for any defence and a he will be expected to keep the ManU defence on their toes and perhaps hope to cause more than a concern.
