Knew yesterday was not going to end well the moment I saw Nacho & Benz in the starting lineup.
- Nacho has been out of form all season, Jordi Alba torched him the entire first half, why was he so far up field (to link posession ? Madrid couldnt keep the ball) and so far off Alba when was actually defensing him.
- Ramos & Varane just make mistake after mistake lately, now Varane is injured again, so is Vallejo, he might have to find another profession
- The midfield was trash, been trash for two months now, Modric needs to sit he's not helping, Kroos is lowkey just as bad, Casemiro is only good when he's actually playing his holding position, which he oftens wanders away from
- Bale is just out form probably not even healthy, Benz isn't a striker, tired of the Benz convo.

Vinicius got his card overturned and isnt in the squad?
Vazquez is not a game changer why is always a first sub, he's not gonna do.****
Why isn't Odriozola playing he's the back up RB, is he injured?
Ceballos has earned playing time, doesn't get in

The team often looks out of shape, starts every match sluggish, and unmotivated wonder if this has anything to with the team working less on fitness this summer, that's on the also manager. The overall team culture is bad, teams aren't going to lay down to you because you're Real Madrid. Ronaldo covered up a lot of bs from this team, we play bad but its ok because Ronaldo will get us a goal, that's gone. I'm here for Conte because we need a shake up. I would gut this team summer.
 
RIP to those that died in the Leicester tragedy

Didn't catch anyanything but the first of half el clasico, looking forward to watching city spurs
 
Wait till he signs for Madrid. Figo 2.0


Na this generation of Barça fans ain’t doing something like that....

Won’t be as bad, Barça fans have been expecting this for a while now (won’t be a surprise when he gets to Madrid) and he wasn’t as big an icon as Figo.


I said he was gonna turn into Luis Figo 2.0 yesterday but the more I think about it... more like Luis Figo 1.25 :lol:
 
Might be alot of plays down the wings cause of how **** that pitch is right now. Terrible planning. Very important game today considering how tight things are between the top 5.

Kasper Schmeichel's beautiful open letter to Vichai Srivaddhanaprabha.
Dear Mr Chairman

I cannot believe this is happening. I am so totally devastated and heartbroken. I just cannot believe what I saw last night. It just doesn’t seem real!

It is difficult to put into words how much you have meant to this football club and to the city of Leicester. We all know about the investment in the football club you and your family have made. But this is about so much more. You cared so deeply for not just the club but for the entire community. Your endless contribution to Leicester’s hospitals and charities will never be forgotten. You went above and beyond in every aspect.

Never have I ever come across a man like you. So hard working, so dedicated, so passionate, so kind and so generous in the extreme. You had time for everyone. You touched everyone. It didn’t matter who it was, you had time for them. I always admired you as a leader, as a father and as a man.

You changed football. Forever! You gave hope to everyone that the impossible was possible, not just to our fans but to fans all over the world in any sport! Not many people have done that. When you signed me back in 2011 you said to me we would be in the champions league within 6 years and we would do great things. You inspired me and I believed in you. You made me feel like nothing was impossible. Without you and your family, all this, everything we did together everything we achieved would never have happened. You gave me experiences that only happen in fantasy.

You literally made my dreams come true.

But what I am most proud of is to have been part of your vision. The environment you created. This club, this city is a family. And that is all because of you. For this I am eternally grateful. I am grateful to have known you and grown close to you and your amazing family and for all the private moments and joint experiences I had with you on a personal level. It breaks my heart to know I will never see you in the dressing room when I came in early from my warm-up and have a chat about everything and nothing. That you won’t be there having fun and laughing with the boys and seeing your infectious smile and enthusiasm that rubbed off on everyone you came into contact with.

We now have a responsibility as a club, as players and fans to honour you. From knowing you we do this by being the family you created. By sticking together and supporting those closest to you through horrendous time.

You had a vision for this club, you wanted the best for us. There was absolutely nothing you wouldn’t do for us. You were so passionate. We must honour your legacy by delivering for you on the pitch like you also wanted and continue being the close-knit family club that you built.

You will never know how much you meant to me and my family.

I am truly honoured and privileged to have been a small part of your life.

Would be lit if the MLS game was an LA derby, Clippers v Lakers, and Dodgers vs Angels :lol:
 
I don’t eem mind Conte coming in even if he’s bound to fight with players

This soft *** complacent team needs to be whipped back into playing shape, forget talent/age/seniority let only the hungriest players on
 
I didn't even watch the clasico this weekend. Saw the score and wasn't even surprised. The hell is going on with them.
 
This City kit's color combination is one of the worst I've ever seen :sick:
