Real Madrid (H) - Wed 17th May, 20:00 | Pre-Match Thread

[Nellies left peg]

I followed this advice once and I got kicked out of the children’s ward.

I had the same problem when I was a school caretaker

Bored rigid. Staring at the beer fridge and watching the beer get cold.

Luckily I'm working until 7, get home at 7.40ish, get changed, whack some food in, beers out the fridge, right in time for kick off.

Think I'd be pacing around the house otherwise

I don’t get why Phil doesn’t start on the right wing, I’m so, so disappointed. He should be the first one on the team sheet

Has not had enough football since his return to justify starting over Grealish, Mahrez or Bernardo.

So many madrid fans in town swear they only meant to have brought 900

All proud owners of Cityzen memberships

You've all misread my post. I never claimed we were more tired than City. I just gave some data points to contrast the teams. Of course the fatigue factor is in our favor.

Sorry but that is all bollocks , claiming your lot will be tired is crap

Oh fuck off (a) you haven’t matched Barce and (b) last time I looked you were third in a 2 horse race

Edit just checked, now second, your team must be exhausted

La Liga isn't a patch on the premier league. How many teams have won the Spanish top flight since its formation? Compare that to England. Good luck. We've got a huge number of teams spending big money, beating each other every week. La Liga is basically who does better in El Clasico.

You'll be fully rested, you had the weekend off and it's not a factor at all. This is your season and you've prepared for it. We have had two must win games every week for about 4 months now.

That's actually making me more nervous than previously.

Is it locked or are you chained up or something?

I've always said the PL is more competitive. Not sure how you've interpreted it otherwise.

In general yes because its reflective of the form.

Where have I said that Madrid are more fatigued than City? I just gave data points. Maybe your paranoia that everyone is out to get City is getting the better of you.
