Real Madrid

[Beast]

Well, there is a sliiiiiight difference between a CL game and the Gamper ... And no, I don't rate Milan. I think they have a good attack that can't be supported by the team. It might work well versus those shit Italian teams but that's about it. Hence the question, how the hell did Barcelona concede?

I see you're just as excited as last year.
Real wins two games in a row: EXTATIC MOFO
Real loses: meh, we're building we're building

Should become a culé, given this board acts like that all of the time. Fits perfectly!


I also don't know about the Clasico, can go either way. Barcelona have played parked busses already ... but Real haven't played a top team that can hold the ball. Real is doing well but it is not that the win versus Milan is giong to convince me given how shit Milan were. I see similarities to last year so not worried at this moment.

I see you are still as delusional as last year with your Ibra luvv .. you fit the profile
If Milan didn't match your midfield in the Gampar toe for toe i would have agreed with you but that was not the case or maybe your midfield except for the magical Xavi passes is poor and the old Catalan performance hide up some of the deficiencies almost everyone used and exposed except Racing and Pana
Neither were you so good vs teams who hold the ball (see Valencia ) it was a 50 - 50 affair and u were better than them in the second half and won .
but i will gladly wait for the first half of the classico in November but from what i saw so far this season you will be killed if you play us the same way but a lot can change in a month

The madridista excuse: nah..it's camp nou..we will kick ur ass in bernabeu
history of pass 2 seasons:
camp nou - Barca 2-0 Madrid
bernabeu - Madrid 2-6 Barca

camp nou - Barca 1-0 Madrid
bernabeu - Madrid 0-2 Barca

Let me know when your parents buy the rest of the DVD's of previous years.. Xmas is on the horizon

my parents? they say there are many good clasicos but the 2-6 in bernabeu is legend..

U seem to forget that Real just played with 2 DM/CM and those other 3 you talk about are 2 fully attacking wingers and an AM who were upfront toying with your defense..do you think you were playing Inter and it was Motta-Cambiasso-Muntari-Sneijder vs your midfield ? ? ?? it was Di Maria-Cristiano-Ozil ffs
those 2 players took over Seedorf-Pirlo-Rino.. so go figure..
even Marcelo who had to cover Pato had fun with zambrotta all night .. so what are you arguing about ? Boateng came early in the second half and it didn't change your game that much .. you had

Ozil Ronaldo and Di Maria are still counted as midfielders even more so than Seedorf ( who was the most pathetic player on the pitch and even looks more pathetic knowing he earns 5 million a year). You can convince yourself you were awesome but matter of fact Milan played total shit and it was all due to the formation. Ofcourse Boateng cannot change the match when you're being pounded by the other team and the good part is : took out Gattuso lol so we end up with no DM. The difference in the match was balance. Madrid had it all Milan didn't. If Milan played the same formation like Madrid do you think we would have been pounded like that ? Ofcourse we might still lose but not in that sense, not at all.

I bet that if in the second leg Allegri just puts a balanced formation ( even with shitty tactics) as long as his formation is good, the second leg will be much more competitive and Milan might even win.

As for Madrid in general they are very organized but any team with decent possession and ball control can hurt them.

[Poor_Sunyol]

We are going to tear Madrid a new arsehole in November. We'll see who is scared of who with the line up Jose puts out.

[yusuf]

well milan played shit cause madrid played awesome....

[ricknattery]

Ask Barca Midfield and defense if it was a proper test or not
I wonder how hyped Milan will be with Pato-Dinho-Ibra and Robinho with Pirlo and co if you were playing them..
oh wait u did and Milan was better and the match ended in a draw
you lot get funnier every day ...

you are basing all of that in a friendly. Our players stopped running in the second half, they were walking. In the first half we outplayed them badly, but like it's happening now our finishings were terrible. I seriously believed Milan was better than that but clearly Madrid has faced tougher teams this season(Sociedad and Mallorca). This Milan is a joke. It was so sad to see Seedorf like that, dragging his feet.
Although, It's clear that this Madrid has a bigger margin than last season to become better

[Metaphysical]

Well, there is a sliiiiiight difference between a CL game and the Gamper ...

we lost the 2009 gamper 0-1 to man city and never really created a clear chance.

then man city finished 5th in the PL while we won the league with 99 points.

the gamper may be a prestige friendly, but it's still a friendly.

not that you expect gio to understand that.

if we had played a team as open at the back as a silva-less milan in a competitive game, good god we would have slaughtered them. the amount of space madrid were getting was utterly ridiculous and even then both goals were IMMENSELY fluky.

I also don't know about the Clasico, can go either way. Barcelona have played parked busses already ... but Real haven't played a top team that can hold the ball. Real is doing well but it is not that the win versus Milan is giong to convince me given how shit Milan were. I see similarities to last year so not worried at this moment.

it does seem rather reminiscent of last year, but we'll have to see. josé is far more adept at the big clashes than pellegrini, but there's a long way to go 'til the clasico and plenty of games for messi and villa to find form (and really their poor form in front of goal is our only negative right now).

[Raed]

My parents may not have called me Paul, and I may be born to humans but I have every right to believe that we will defeat Barcelona in the Camp Nou.

It is very rare that I ever put my neck out like that but I'd like to believe we will defeat Barcelona . Just 'cuz.

hoping is not a crime

[Wolfe]

I wouldn't be so sure about Barca actually achieving the result at Camp Nou as Raed says. How long was it since Barca got better result at Camp Nou than at Bernabeu ? 3-4 when it was 3-3 (or is my memory bad) ? Last year Madrid presented better display at Camp Nou and if it wasn't for particular players not delivering in front of goal the match would have probably gone the either way. Also at that time we had Albiol-Pepe as CBs and Lass-Xabi as DMs, now we have two quality CBs who understand each other fully and Khedira gave our team qualities of calm, defensive play instead of chaotic running around by Lass. Also our team is younger, faster and more capable. I think we have a good chance of winning it both on paper and in reality.

Barca did not play well in that Camp Nou game last year.


We may start finding our stride by the end of November.

Attraxia you count Seedorf and co as attacking mids but not Ozil and co ?

when did they track back ? they didn't need to do any of that

you are basing all of that in a friendly. Our players stopped running in the second half, they were walking.

Milan were toe to toe with you for 90 minutes .. you didn't outplay any team except for 2 games all season tille now
Oh and now Mallorca and Sociedad are better than Milan .. go to sleep

if we had played a team as open at the back as a silva-less milan in a competitive game, good god we would have slaughtered them. the amount of space madrid were getting was utterly ridiculous and even then both goals were IMMENSELY fluky.


.

You need to slaughter Sporting /Mallorca/Hercules first before you think of slaughtering Milan
that the stereotype you .. you didn't manage to slaughter most of the team u played .. you need an invitation to score goal maybe take your head out of the sand (see how nice i am didn't say ass and watch more of your game
we created space you wait for the other teams to open space for you , we can move the ball in not time you need to pass it 6-7 times to do the same thing.. you give a team like Milan a big chance to organize the defense we don't .. look @ how CR raped Nesta last night before the shot Amelia saved.. they had no answer to our speed and fast movement .

you can't slaughter a silva-less Milan nor you can slaughter many of the team you played this season and that's a fact

[dalitis8]

Man,Milan was crap last night.It matters not how many European Cups they have won in bygone days.They were utter,utter crap.

You say BArca could not beat Mallorca and Hercules and you are right,but in those games Barca was either extremely tired or very unlucky or both.I guess you have in mind the amount of games our players have played and won during the past 3 years or so.Barca is far below potential atm mainly because of that. But if you honestly believe that the AC Milan of last night could have faced a Barca at 60% then I am really sorry.

and lest not forget that Madrid could not beat Levante,Mallorca and needed an 81st minute goal to beat crappy Auxerre. 1-0 against Osasuna wasn't that impressive either.

[Beast]

You've been flying the "tired " "Lack of fitness " for some time as your ready excuse for your displays give it a rest it's not like Spain was the only team to play till the end.. so was the Germans,Dutch and Uruguay Do you see Khedira ,Ramos,Ozil playing bad ?
and the amount of games you played in the last 3 years has no effect on this year games .. you have little understanding of players fitness if that's the case they rest for a month + every year and trained to reach full momentum all teams play gazillion games a season why do you want to be an exception ? the only factor is the WC and those 4 team players lasted almost a week later than the Brazilians and co only.. as i said you can't use the tired excuse every game there is no such thing that affect only Barca players , you have motivational, hunger and some tactical mistakes
If Milan last night faced Barca it would end in a draw or even a win .. you are struggling and if you can't see it till now i don't know what to say.. even Copenhagen win was dire imagine if you faced the Milan forwards

[dalitis8]

Barca players have played more than any other in the last years or so.That counts for a lot.We also had injuries.Milan was shite last night.Kobenhavn were brave tonight.It is not only about a club's name,it is about current form.Speculating as to what would have happened had we faced Milan is not very helpful.I admit that Barca are struggling at the moment,but that is in all probability only temporary. The potential is there for dramatic improvement. Do not forget that this team is the World Champions plus Messi and Alves.

The season is not decided in the first couple of months and above everything the CL will be decided from March to May. I expect Barca to peak after New Year,hopefully during those all-important knock-out matches(I don't want last season's mistakes repeated)

In fact if it was not for the vomit-inducing Mourinho,I wouldn't care one bit for La Liga.Even as it is,I would gladly take victories over Madrid,4th place finish in La Liga and the CL at Wembley.Anw,but that's just me.
