Both legs of Aberdeen v Bayern Munich are now virtually sold out.

And Ribery is out of the first game and doubtful for the second.

I know.

I predict 5-0 Bayern over the two legs, though if they put their mind to it they could win each games 5-0.

I would have liked to see Ribery again because he was poor when I was at hampden for Scotland beating France.

Won't it?

It doesn't matter. I'll have been drinking for three solid days before the game in Germany, so I would have a clue whats going on. I'll probably end up supporting the team in red.

    I hope they will underestimate Anderlecht next Thursday in the Uefa Cup, else the return match in Bayern might not even be necessary.

    They badly underestimated Aberdeen in the first game, which is why we were able to compete with them.

    The have probably learned their lesson and are more likely to give Anderlecht the respect they deserve.

    To inform Burke a bit. :)

    Bayern Eyeing £10 Million Boruc

    Reports in the Scottish media claim that Bayern Munich are keen on signing Celtic goalkeeper Artur Boruc as a long-term replacement for Oliver Kahn.

    The Daily Record are reporting that Bundesliga leaders Bayern Munich want to prise the Polish keeper away from Parkhead as they look to find a successor to the great Oliver Kahn, who is retiring at the end of the season.

    Michael Rensing has long been thought of as the natural heir to Kahn’s number one jersey, but the arrival of Jürgen Klinsmann in the summer to replace the out-going Ottmar Hitzfeld could see him bring in his own man and the Pole is in the reckoning.

    Celtic recently tied the international keeper to a new deal, but that will not deter a club of Bayern’ resources or AC Milan, who are also reportedly interested.

    Klinsmann has first-hand experience of the Celtic player's ability after Boruc's outstanding performance for Poland against Germany at the 2006 World Cup and it seems the keeper has remained in the thoughts of the new Bayern trainer.

    Unusually, Bayern sent former keeper Sepp Maier to Scotland to do their scouting on Aberdeen ahead of their UEFA Cup last-32 clash against last month.

    The game in question was against Celtic at Pittodrie and sources in Munich understand the reason for this was the club wanted the legendary Maier, who is also Bayern's goalkeeping coach to look at Boruc first hand.

    Bayern striker Lukas Podolski, who is of Polish descent, has already spoken of his desire to see Boruc at the Allianz Arena.

    “I would like very much that, after Kahn, we could have Boruc” he said.

    “I want him in the team because he is one of the best goalkeepers in Europe.

    “I like to watch him, especially in the Champions League, because they do not show the Scottish league in Germany.

    “Also, I would help him from the first day that he would stay at the club” Podolski added.
