What a fucking player

Feck man, almost hope we draw PSG just so we can find out soon who Flick would start currently in a game like that and be done with recycling this endless FDJ vs Casado debate

Should field strongest lineup no doubt. 8 days of rest before game and no midweek game this week either. Plus we could go top of the table, monumental game. Can’t wait, don’t think they will let us down tommorow.

Judging by Madrid's games against us and Pool they aren't really candidates

Yeah true that City are nowhere near their former self. Maybe a Classic Madrid knockout tie is more accurate

Pool, us, Inter or Arsenal would be my guess Either of these teams will get beaten by a proper team

Classic City-Madrid tie

Midfield maestro Ceballos showing Pedri how it's done

why the heck did that take so flipping long????:lol:

Ngl it's quite satisfying knowing our players are charging up em batteries while likes of RM, Bayern, Man City and QSG are running around midweek still trying to qualify for the KO phase

Guess we’ll just have to outscore them

Bit over the top to blame on ther respective positions innit? Pedri is part of a double pivot, not playing as a AM. This is part of the reason he's been so much more influential this season, he's playing deeper than ever before. If you check their heat maps you'll see it's not a big difference...

So you don’t care about the stats you requested yourself then.

Gr8 analogy with the movies. I personally don't care what DiCaprio or Tarantino think about football players, but when they speak up about certain movies etc, I'd rate their opinion quite a bit more. You'd also think that the opinion of the best defender of the last 10 years, regarding which...

Was also more to underline just how much stats favour Pedri, even tho I don't think they do him justice as said. It's not close in my opinion, still waiting for a @Temptation reaction tho. He was afterall the one who requested the stats.

Yeah is our only attacker stretching the pitch. Also rarely receives the ball to feet facing goal. If he did so I'd guess we'd see more goals from him a la the one Raph scored yesterday or Yamal himself scored in the clasico. Usually receives it on the touchline, back to goal, with two...

Pedri has 20% more carries per 90 and also edges him in the rest of the metrics (progressive distance, into final third etc) by 10 or more percent, bit odd to call that a tie innit. Gravenberch only better in Interceptions and tackles. Pedri is better in all passing metrics, and more...

Next shirt will be with this baller on the back, love watching him run the show

Interesting few weeks ahead for Madrid now. I think we take this Liga now. Less injuries, more players in form, tactics more polished. This is ours to lose now, we'll spank them once again in the clasico if Pedri, Yamal, Raph and Cubarsí remain fit

Title race back on
