I'm so glad that Valverde isn't our manager anymore. As we know, a knockout game away from home with him is always a good bet on dropping out of the tournament. Last year in our first round of Copa del Rey against Cultural Leonesa (0-1) it took us even longer to score (91 minutes) and we had...

The standard procedure when Real takes corners or long-range free kicks. Three guys who doesn't even intend to go for the header and are just there to block the opponent's players to get Ramos a free header on goal.

So where's the difference to the Real Madrid goals?

50 when they score and 50 when they concede.

This must be a joke. Most of Real Madrid's heading goals in the past included blocking the way of the opponent's players for a free Ramos header.

Why is nobody talking about this guy? He is CM, topscorer of Barca B, secondary team captain and I don't see any grave weaknesses bar maybe heading. He has a really good technique and first touch, very good passes, low center of gravity, makes quick short steps, seems to be calm on the ball and...

I don't see anyone highlighting Valverde's positivity on the first page of his first thread. And I also don't see there any of his quotes. The second post already is about Valverde's football maybe not suiting us. Should people write Setien off before he even made his first game? Should they...

I would go with Garcia Pimienta at least until the end of the season. He could integrate some of his youth players and if he can do something else with this team - good. If not, get another manager like Koeman, Wenger or whoever for the next one or two years. They are not bonded with the old...

Ah yes, then it was only in la liga or something.

Yeah but only with draws.

Isn't this Simeone's first win as a manager against Barcelona ever? Thank you for that Ernie.

Sure he is young and I'm not writing him off, but even Junior Firpo's highlight videos have been more exiting let alone Semedo's. And both of them are not good enough.

Even in highlight videos he doesn't look that good. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GSlpfBrNHHE 0:39 silly dribbling without benefit against three men in his own half almost loosing the ball 0:44 waiting way too long to take the cross resulting in a lucky deflection 0:51 getting fouled 0:57...

Found his remaining level against the 15th, 17th and 20th team on the table. Now we know in what kind of games we can use him.

Why exactly was he subbed off? Our only forward who is contributing to the defence and we are one man down...

Sounds like I am older than you. If it makes you happy you can hate whatever you want. I don't care. I have watched some United games too. But what I remember for sure are the comments of my friends who preferred to watch Premier League back then. They always said that he is one of the...

For me there was never anything to enjoy about his playing style. I watched quite a few Real Madrid games over the years because I always wanted to know how strong they are and sometimes he was just hilariously bad at everything. Either that or just boring to watch with his clueless free kicks...

Home game, weak and badly instructed opponent. Play them away from home while they sit in their half with 4-5-1 and we are as clueless as always.

We should try him at LB. He may be a bit slow but makes up for it with being left footed, good combinations, hard work, runs into the box and good crosses. Umtiti/Lenglet-Griezman-Dembele, french connection on the left.

Come on guys. At home we will easily win this. The problem are the hungerless, sleepy and scared away games. At the Camp Nou it is easy to become motivated and courageous when 80.000 fans cheer for you. But when you have won everything multiple times and are playing a game away from home while...
