La Liga 2020/21

Odegaard with a class pass to Benzema but the latter is a turtle so nothing comes of it

 

[Morten]

So, another season with penalties and the odd Benzema goal?
Attack hasnt improved.

Who is that Marvin dude?

Who is this Marvin that just got subbed in ?

 

[El Gato]

Well, we certainly cant play this midfield against top teams, its already struggling against Sociedad.

Midfield is fine. It's the lack of chance creation, in part because of inexperience, part poor execution, part downright poor spacing that makes us struggle to find balance. We created not a single good chance, because of lack of receivers, and it's not because our passers are scrubs. Our receivers are not good enough at picking a moment to make a run. Not one person can stand out and all should sync runs accordingly to the slowest man who MUST be Hazard at worst. But it's not. Benzema is slowest. Always lagging.

Go on Marvin laddie. Show them

Who is this Marvin that just got subbed in ?

Castilla kid. Nigerian-Korean, can play for Spain.

In other words, our Asian value Fati

Fair enough.

 

[mc_lovin]

That should have been 0:1.

Zidane really doesnt rate Jovic, seeing as he puts on random Castilla players.

No. He doesn't put him on because he doesn't want to take Benzema off. No other reason. There's no other spot on the pitch he can play, unless you convert Benzema to #10 and sacrifice a midfielder.

 

[El Gato]

Verticality of Fede in space is so essential. Prime exhibit right there

 

[messi2140]

Isn't Jovic pretty much out the door with Real wanting to loan him out

 

[serghei]

Benzema goal is coming... Any minute now.

Marca writes something different every 3 days.

May be true and we keep Mayoral as #2 if Zidane goes full on nepotism, or may be a total lie and Jović will start next game.

 

[Morten]

Such a dull, nothing-performance.

 

[serghei]

That was the goal by Benz. Slightly offside though... alas... wasn't to be.
