Champions League 2016/17

[serghei]

Can someone tell me why we struggle against teams like Juve and Pathetico while RM swat them aside like they're nothing?!

Madrid is just as motivated and fierce as them, that's why. Atletico beat you by being more motivated than you, by puttin in more effort. If you match them in that, you beat them by having better quality.

We didn't match them in intensity in either games on Calderon, not in 2014 and not in 2016.

 

[GetIn]

Little consolation. The team Madrid beat 4-1, schooled us 3-0. That's what matters.

Juve did not school us at all. Dybala turned into a god for 5 minutes and Mathieu got torched in the 3 man defense. Other than that the first leg was very close and we could've scored a few if not for our poor finishing. Even with our shit midfield we still managed to get behind Juve's defense a couple times. If we make that first leg close, the complexion of the second leg at home completely changes and who knows what happens from there.

3-0 is getting spanked no matter how you put it. 4-0 vs PSG as well. Don't dress it. If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it is a duck.

 

[Lelouch vi Britannia]

Lol so true.

There's no doubt Real are favoured in Spain and Europe.

I still think its something closer to refs being afraid to make calls against Madrid since Mou's rant in 2011 than outright bribery.

They schooled us in finishing, nothing else. PSG was the one that was complete and utter schooling.

The result doesnt always tell the full story.

 

[Barcilliant]

Real don't only buy well, they sell well too.

Morata for 60 million.

We would have sent him on loan, free or two million max.

 

[dakt]

Sorry for Juve, Gigi and Alves. This was probably the most deserved CL tittle for RM in this decade. Nothing else to say.

In terms of the scoreline? Sure.

But we were not completely outclassed in terms of the quality of play against Juve.

 

[JerseyAddict]

We can say we could this we could that but Juve left us at 0 goals.

And RM makes 2 in row. CR7 scores 2 in final.

Juve... FU... Go back and buy titles in Calcio... Stupid fucks...

 

[Altomonte]

Maybe we can challenge them if we neglect the Copa del Rey? Who cares that RM went out of CDR 2 years in a row? We fought through it, almost killed ourselves against Atletico, and then lost to PSG a few days later ...

 

[Hamzah]

We need to buy the right players otherwise it will be a three peat

Fuck the Copa, we've won it 3 times in a row now, there is no need to physically kill ourselves anymore in January and February only to tire ourselves out for the CL knockout stages.

Time to go full Madrid and play a suspended player in the first leg of the first round.

 

[Barcilliant]

Lol Real fans must be laughing at us.

Robert, Barto and Lucho fucked us.

We could have signed Kross, Asencio and Isco but no...

 

[DonAK]

it was Higuain. At least Dybala tried. And he has a lots of future. I would get him.

As people said. RM has Bale on the bench and James on the stands.

Then why can't we have Dybala for something?

Because Dybala would want a starting spot, and he plays as a second-striker, CAM.

Where would he play?

More important for us to sign a CM and AM + a great RB.

If we want a player like Dybala, then we can sign Dembele, who's having a similar season to Dybala in terms of impact and talent, BUT is 4 years younger and can play as a LW/CAM/RW.

Exactly. Nobody gives a fuck about Copa. Cl is the big one. We should play our bench in the Copa.

RM PRIORITISE the CL and that's why they've won it so many times.

We want to win everything and get spread thin.

This is called sugarcoating
