Well Madrid are out of the cup....always nice to write that! Nasty match, entertaining though, I thought Juve looked very well organised but they lack creativity whilst madrid are really struggling to find their mojo.
It's pre-season.. and that's one of the big plus that we concluded his deal early.. if Perez and co did what they used to do (sign the big name in the last 2-3 days of transfer window ) such performance would be in the official games..
he feels pressure even though the management said they don't care about the results.. i think Kaka inclusion the next game will take off the creation pressure off CR and he will be able to perform normally
strong test for the boys.. they held themselves well vs Juve first team .. set pieces are an issue and that's another point that needs working although the absence of Iker - Ramos-Albiol-Arbeloa can explain that
CR & Benzema still way off the required level and Manu should start the individual trainings this week for the forwards
Last summer, when Pep was appointed as manager, he said that pre-season is important & that Barça would take it seriously. Look where that attitude got us: Copa, lliga, Champions.
last summer we Murdered everyone in preseason i knew we were going to score ALOT of goles after all them in preseason! what i meant was preseason Results do not matter. of course preseason itself is VERY important to get the team going for the long season ahead
