Bayern won't win the CL this year, mark my words.

Pep has got them lacking the killer instinct. They played at 100% effort all the time last season, which is why they won everything and won by ridiculous scores. This season they are taking it easy even against the worst teams. They should be beating a team like Hamburg 5-0, Braunschweig 8-0, but they don't get out of 1st gear. When they will need to play at maximum effort against top teams, they won't be able to.

The Club World Cup is enough in my book.

Speaking of Brazil, it seems Flu isn't going to get relegated at all.

Brazil's Fluminense may get relegation reprieve
Rio de Janeira, Dec 11 (IANS): Fluminense could be spared relegation to Brazil's second tier amid revelations that rivals Portuguesa fielded an irregular player.

Brazil's superior sports justice tribunal (STJD) will this week make a ruling on Portuguesa's decision to introduce suspended midfielder Heverton in the final minutes of Sunday's 0-0 draw with Gremio, reports Xinhua.

The club faces a possible three-point deduction, which would leave them with 45 points, one less than Fluminense.

STJD prosecutor Paulo Schmitt said he was awaiting a report by the Brazilian Football Confederation before proceeding with the case.

"We still haven't received any notification," Schmitt said. "I understand that we will be sent a document Wednesday informing of the irregularity and we will then decide the next step."

Fluminense, Brazil's 2012 league champions, and fellow Rio de Janeiro giants Vasco da Gama were among the four clubs relegated to the second division following Sunday's final round of matches.

Let them Flu brehs have it, they owe so much already, and they're being saved yet again

A disastrous campaign led to the club's relegation from Série A in 1996. A set of off-field political maneuvers, however, allowed Fluminense to remain in Brazil's top domestic league,[12] only to be relegated the next year.[13] Completely out of control, the club was relegated from Série B to Série C in 1998.[14] In 1999, Fluminense won the Série C championship and was to be promoted to Série B when it was invited to take part in Copa João Havelange,[15] a championship that replaced the traditional Série A in 2000. In 2001, it was decided that all clubs which took part in Copa João Havelange's so-called Blue Groupshould be kept in Série A,[16] and so Fluminense Football Club found its way back to the top, where it has been ever since.
