Champions League

Ajax need another one to be somewhat safe.

We lack movement and motivation.

we just need to sell static slow players. We already have Arthur and FDJ is coming, not good to keep slow ass players who will infect their slowness virus to the youngsters.

Kroos a total shit show.

Who are we talking about? Suarez, Messi? I guess Suarez is leaving soon anyway, then midfield needs change. Rakitic for someone younger and faster. Busquests we need to keep.

To look at it from the positive side... 2 early subs for Madrid. If this goes to ET, there will be a severe lack of fresh legs.

If Ajax don't to something to score on the break they will not hold on. Their defense bar De Ligt is average at best.

I remember Juve winning 3-0 in this same stadium and almost through when Real had a questionable PK for them in 97 mins lol

This time there is VAR.

Just as I type they are trying to milk a pen.

There already is. Where do you think all this horrific passing and getting bullied off the ball is coming from?

Could this be the night luck and referee errors at important times die out?

We can't play football this fast. We are too slow and we don't have legs either.

Yep.
There is almost a staggering 4 year difference in avergae age of ajax vs us (24 vs 28), Hence why we’re much less energetic.
However the biggest reason is, 7 out of our 11 starters already won 10+ trophies with barca and a at least one treble, 3 of them saw the treble twice.

They’ll never be as motivated as a team like ajax that hasn’t seen the 16th stage in more than a decade i think?

 

[serghei]

Ronaldo was the most important player in Madrid by a mile. All this talk about him scoring goals set up by others on a plate was rubbish.

 

[George_Costanza]

De ligt is a fantastic player... I hope he joins us.

They aren't good enough to fluke it this season. Not without the luckiest ever manager and player Zidane and Penaldo.
