    Agreed. Marcelo Bielsa in the Prem would be pretty marvelous. The former Marseille boss is a bit of a character...

    Which manager plying their trade in Europe would you like to see come to these shores? Which club would they be perfect for and why?

    Jason Price: Diego Simeone, purely because of his passion.

    Tohseen: I think Simeone will do well at Arsenal. He would help them with their defense and work his way up to attack.

    Missed last night's semi-final between Manchester City and Real Madrid? Worry not, because you didn't miss much. 

    It ended goalless and chances were few and far between. In fact, probably the most memorable thing was Zinedine Zidane splitting his trousers., external Again.

    Time for a more robust pair of trousers, Zizou...

    Atletico Madrid are, undoubtedly, a tough nut to crack.

    Diego Simeone's side beat holders Barcelona in the quarter-finals and have conceded just five goals in this season's competition.

    "I'm expecting a hard match against an opponent with a lot of attacking potential, against a coach who changes from game to game," Simeone said.

    "Obviously we have a coach and players with different characteristics. But in wars it isn't the side with the most soldiers that wins, it's the side that uses its soldiers better."

    Atletico Madrid striker Fernando Torres, speaking to BT Sport: "I am really enjoying this moment. I want to live in the present because this is probably the most exciting time."

    Torres helped Chelsea win the Champions League in 2012, and he added: "Hopefully I can do like I did in 2012, but this is a different game and a different year."

    This is a tie that pits together a side that boasts one of the most deadliest attacks in this season's Champions League, against one that has arguably the best defence.

    Pep Guardiola's Bayern have scored 28 goals in the competition, more than any other side and double the amount Atletico have scored.

    However, Diego Simeone's side have kept a clean sheet in 13 of their past 15 Champions League matches at the Vincente Calderon. 

    It promises to be a fascinating contest.

    Or they cancel each other out and it's a bit of a snoozefest.

    Let's just hope for the former.

    Just how close were Atletico Madrid to winning that title back in 1974? Very close.

    Goalless after 90 minutes, Don Luis Aragones struck in extra time with a free-kick only for Bayern to level with just one minute left on the clock.

    With no penalties back then, a replay was called and Bayern subsequently ran out 4-0 winners. The rest, as they say, is history.
