Lliga: Real Madrid - FC Barcelona 3-1

[linetty]

Barca's table would look similar.

People probably expect us to lose because so many people without a brain just look at Madrids games and say. "Ronaldos scoring two per game and the whole team is scoring tons of goals. Barca's defence is bad so it will be a goal fest for Madrid" The reality is that our defence has got better and Madrids goals are partially to do with the openness of the teams that play against them.

So I'm w/o a brain because I think we might loose. Grow up. We are not God given either. It's clasico and 5 goals could end up on both sides.

Even if we lose the game, I wanna see the players give their all. There is also a home game against Madrid, no reason to panic if we lose. We are 1 point ahead and the next clasico is on Camp Nou.

Agree.

Yeah but when we won them 5-0, we were the best team in the world by far...These things doesnt happen too often..I expect a close game

Hello, new guy here...

I think that the lineup will be something like this:
------------------------- Bravo -----------------------
-- Alves ---- Mascherano --- Mathieu ----- Alba --
----------------------- Busquets ---------------------
----------- Rackitic ----- Xavi ----- Iniesta ---------
---------------- Messi ---------- Neymar ------------

 

[Neymessi]

Apart from the optimistic/pessimistic shit,getting on the point,all we need is some hungry pressing and more possession-oriented football to add to how we are playing.

Ronaldo can't playmake 1/10th of what messi can.He can just score goals.Mark isco,the most dangerous RM player tomorrow imo and there might not be much attack flowing from the RM side.

 

[Neymessi]

Also I just realized that we would have a massive 7 point lead if we won tomorrow and that too after just 9 games with the most difficult fixture behind us.DAMN

We're not gonna have an easy time unless Barca turns into the old Barca, Madrids offense is all about fast pace and workrate, all of there players work hard, that plus the brilliant forwards they have, I have little faith in our defense. Its sad hearing people say, "lets just try to outscore them

Before the manc match last season,people were expecting a thrashing for us,or a high scoring game.Turned out to be a dull game with very few attacks from both sides.Just because real and barca have a great attack and not such a great defence does not mean the scoreline is going to be 3-3 or something.

I expect Khedira to start along Kroos, Modric and James.

Yeah but what I'm trying to say is that before we dictated the tempo of the game, I'm not even sure we can do it anymore. Midfield is seriously lacking like before, tiki taka is gone now, our attack is based on Leos brilliance and Neymars, hell its all we have seen almost in all the matches.. Whereas Madrid is functioning almost in all aspects, defense, midfield, attack.... They are just sinply better than us at the moment.

But no fool will say it will be easy for them.

Madrid is not really that complete imo.They have there faults just like ours.The thing is that there faults are not as much as ours though I agree that they have better chances tomorrow BUT they still have a lot of faults.Ronaldo can never create a play in his life at RM.Iker is not at his best.There defence is also not at its best.Their mid is questionable except isco.James has not performed as expected and kroos modric are just playing all right atm.Only ronaldo is consistent and that too in scoring.We mark him in scoring areas and he can't drop deep and create something like messi.They have a fair amount of flaws like us,but not any major ones like us like alves etc

 

[Siberia]

I too expect a proper cdm to start for real, probably khedira. Messi with the position he is playing atm with no cdm(s) to defend against him, imo is suicide. He'll have way too many space. If they dont play with khedira or Illara, I expect us to score alot!

Welcome!

I agree on playing midfielder extra. 3 short players at the back though..
