Hummels looked sketchy as fvck out there tonight. That weird named holding midfielder BVB had looked good. Then again most if their names were weird. Damn Polish. Oops I mean Germans ;)

Imagine being one of Gotze or Lewandowski and you score in the CL final against Bayern. Would you like to be responsible for their second lost CL final in a row and join them in the summer? Doesn't seem like a pleasant situation to be in imo.

Sure winning CL outweighs that, but wouldn't it play a part in your performance you think?

Why not? Their Bayern careers will start after they start playing for Bayern.

Xabi Alonso was even worse. Ramos was his pathetic useless self.

Klopp said it before they even got Real in the draw, you stop Xabi you stop Real, just press the fuck outta him and make the center pitch compact and you completely neutralize the whole team. Had Lewandowski and Götze or nearest midfielder on his heels at all times when Real were building from the back, lead to just having Pepe see too much of the ball, lead to Real just doing short side passes that Dortmunds aggressive mobile players could hound (without the fear of someone like Xabi switching lanes effortlessly with long through balls) perfectly executed little scheme.
