Real Madrid (A) | Pre-Match Thread

[AlgarveBlu]

On the plus side the pre match thread after the team announcement before the rags first leg was far worse

Go on, Joe, say something about Madrid's debts and Government bailouts.......

And mention our old mate Tebas

It looks like Debruyne will have a free roll tonight. Madrid wont be able to contain him.

Dont underestimated the Ramos wrestle.....

I bet when lineker has his little round up before the kickoff camelgob will have us as a loss , Joe will have us as the draw , and crouch will have us as a loss and Lineker will go with a loss as well .

Anyone else trying this new app with Alistair Mann commentating?

Which app is this bud?

Not very optimistic seeing that line up. No Kun or Sterling, very slow Gundo-Rodri duo, would have preferred Bernardo in the middle for energy and/or Fernandinho.

Real Madrid knows how to play these knockout games probably has the best/most experience in these kind of games and they know what it takes to go from last 16 to qarter, then semis, then finale...

We need to be so uch more clev er than we were vs Monaco, Liverpool and Spurs last 3 years, especially with the way we were giving away goals for fun. Dont forget two out 3 times we lost on away goals. Scoring enough away goals is very important.

Lets see if all that talk that ffp will galvanise the team is true.

Maybe the answer is to concede less goals at home.

We found out that we were going to meet Real Madrid the 16th of December. We met Man united in the league cup 7th of Januari.

I think Pep has had this exact eleven in his mind for ages. This is identical to the Man United league cup eleven but Jesus instead of Sterling and Laporte instead of Fernandinho

Real will think it's a ordinary 433 with Jesus in the middle. They don't know what will hit them. Pep masterclass at it again

The sooner that Pep Fraudiola fucks off to Juventus and is replaced by a committee of 200 from BlueMoan who clearly know so much more than him about football, the fucking better

Ferdinand “not many City fans around”.

BT

What’s the point?

Depends if Lewandowski was better than Aguero and if he’d been off form and if they had an arguably better striker who’d just scored a winner.

Aguero is better than Lewandowski. He’s the best striker in our team and would walk into theirs

I accept Pep is a genius but dropping our best striker is pushing it
