Said it before the KOs started - Bayern won't win shit wihtout a top striker.
Actually no team can win CL without a top striker. Look how well it went for us in Europe where Lewa pulled off a disappearing act.
Gotta say, the performance last night was top class. Worked tirelessly upfront and was also clinical when he got the chance.
He might not be easy on the eye and fairly limited in the technical department, but you can't fault him on commitment.
Why do we have 2 matches in the same day? Weren't the quarters in separate days/weeks so you could watch every game?
Something like benfica - inter today, city - bayern tomorrow and napoli - milan/real - chelsea next week.
There are lots of duds in the team, that's true. But on the other hand we have no idea what we want to do in attack. And we basically return time and again to cross and inshala.
Either players stopped giving a shit or we are this bad when attacking. We have no clue, no patterns.
We are good in defense + get lucky to not concede.
Madrid will get a new manager. Don't know who is/will be available, but a new manager will probably motivate them to change some things.
Highly unlikely they get a new manager and don't move on the transfer market. 2-3 players might join.
lol
i just don't see the positives going forward with him. winning the league in the current context is still a great achievement for him. but my feeling right now is that he'll get sacked at the end of next season. maybe i'm pessimistic, as usual...
It's a curious case I would say. The quality of play and some important results scream of him not knowing what he's doing.
And yes, it's baffling how you beat Madrid in the league once and get spanked in the cup after parking the bus. The glorified friendly I don't really count, unlike Xavi...
Put a young hungry manager in Madrid and they will probably beat us to the league next season. They have a better squad than us that will be backed in the market by buckets of cash.
Xavi won't always have the luxury of a season like this one when many things went our way in the league. Aside...
