Real Madrid (old thread)

[El Gato]

Didn't Kaka say he will be back halfway through January ?

 

[Beast]

he is already training with the team for couple of days now and will be playing in the copa del gay game after the Xmass break

Unai Emery called Mourinho a 'Cry-Baby'.

He is actually...

 

[gingerless]

is that not what people on this Forum do EVERY time Madrid plays a game?

we are forum dwelling football fans, he is a professional football coach...

it's not like bitching will change the decision but like we & Barca do all the time we pressure to have a better ref performance the next game.. and things eventually even out.

yes, bitching is just classless but if he were hinting subtly maybe then it would be totally fine. eg. "the ref made a few mistakes" something like that.

 

[FCBarca]

It's part of a concerted strategy on Mou's part, though...He knows that apart from his unimaginative tactics, he uses refereeing influence to gain an advantage...That includes, pressuring refs at each & every turn...And, of course, seeing that your buddies end up reffing your own matches too

It's going to be harder for me to claim La Liga is better than EPL after the RM-Sevilla game.

I thought there were three crimes against RM:
Ronaldo slowly walking back onside, causing offside when his teammate passed to him. Bad coaching to allow this and other RM failures to hustle.
No penalty kick on that blatant pull-down in the penalty area. But all refs miss some of these, good teams just forge on.
The Sevilla player who bashed Di Maria's head into the ground needs a long suspension and jail time.

The head butt to the back of the head by the RM player could have been fatal.

All the cards against RM were justified. There should have been more cards for both teams, this one should have finished with fewer players.

Everyone is realising what kind of person this Mourinho is.

I read that he is indeed back in training (light), but he will join the squad midway through January, apparently.

Any link ?

What headbutt ? If you're talking about Carvalho then I'll in ur face.

Specified mistakes from his list shown in the conference:
1. 9th minute : Konko's foul on Di María. Referee should show a yellow card, but doesn't do so. Mistake.
2. 14th minute : Özil's offside which shouldn't be called. Mistake.
3. 20th minute: Benzema's offside, which shouldn't be called. Mistake.
4. 24th minute : Zokora's foul on Khedira. No yellow card. Mistake.

6. 34th minute: No offside on Sevilla. Mistake.
7. 39th minute : No foul on Özil. Mistake.
8. 43rd minute : Di María offside, which shouldn't be given. Mistake.
9. First half with only a minute of stoppage time, in which there were many more time wasting moments. Mistake.
10. 47th minute: Özil's offside, which shouldn't be given. Mistake.
11. 64th minute : Second yellow for Carvalho for hitting Negredo in mid-air. Mistake.
12. 69th minute : Penalty for Escudé's foul on Granero, not given. Mistake.
13. 78th minute : Yellow card for Özil for time-wasting. Sevilla didn't get punished when they wasted time. Mistake.
Also contained info on overall yellow card record, Real Madrid - 9, Sevilla - 3.

. . .

True, but so unnecessary..

5. 25th minute : Foul on Cristiano Ronaldo by the penalty box, no whistle. Mistake.
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH he dived so fucking blatently and shouldh ave got a red card for the dive.
12. 69th minute : Penalty for Escudé's foul on Granero, not given. Mistake.
Oh, you're talking about the same type of foul that Mourinho instructed Thiago Motta, Samuel and Lucio to always do on corners. Most blatently against chelsea whereas 2 penalties should have been handed out. Prepousterous.
13. 78th minute : Yellow card for Özil for time-wasting. Sevilla didn't get punished when they wasted time. Mistake.
Ridiculous.
11. 64th minute : Second yellow for Carvalho for hitting Negredo in mid-air. Mistake.
Deserved. Keep your elbows to your body thank you.
3. 20th minute: Benzema's offside, which shouldn't be called. Mistake.
Half a foot offside if I'm not wrong.

Rest of them are stuff that happens in every match. Typical Mourinho wanting attention.

he took a crap on his own legacy with that sheet of paper

 

[Pepe Silvia]

There is no room to depend on or blame refs in any sport. That was basic understanding growing up and learning about sports for me.

When you are set back, work that much harder to get back in the game. If you want the win bad enough, you'll get it.

 

[FCBarca]

Not really, seems like it's in keeping with the sort of legacy he's already been working on for years now...Controversy, particularly with officiating has been his signature since day one as a manager...Why would it change now?

 

[Gnegneri]

What does this mean? Has he been talking out of his arse the whole day?
