CL Semi-Finals 13/14 - April 22,23,29,30

My Valencia supporting "my second team's Madrid" neighbour only sent up one rocket at half time.
If he was confident he would have sent up at least three :D
Its hard to be ever feel safe with ramos and pepe it seems. Madrid just aren't the kinda team you can support and ever relax I guess :lol:
 
So, Bayern needs a miracle aka 5 goals. Ribery is out of form for months, Kross is having an absolute mare today. Where is prodigy and former beloved play maker Mario Götze? On the bench twiddling his thumps. Hope you enjoy your Millions, Mario, but hey at least you now play under Genius Pep Guardiola, whom you rated so much higher than Klopp. Did miracles to your development....
 
I guess the Coentrão rumours are going to disappear. Can´t see Ancelotti letting him go. Good time to be picking up form, World cup just ahead.
 
And Pep only knows what Ribery is still doing out there. Götze's on the bench waiting and Ribery just continues to play like a sack of pudding. I'm shocked.
 
What's happened to Ribery? I was never his biggest fan but man he has been beyond awful in these two games I have seen against Madrid and also the two games when we played them. He did nothing

Serves him right. He ditched one if the best managers in the world who raised him and brought him through and said his main reason was because of pep. Shocking really, basically like a slap in Klopps face just saying that.
 
Completely dead half of football. Bayern don't want it to turn into more of an embarrassment so they are sitting back. Funny thing is hey should have done so from the start, they only needed one goal after all.

He is 31, Robben is 30. It is very rare that dribbling wingers can still compete as the absolute best by that age. So either Ribery has started declining, which would be logical, or he is just in poor form. Either way he has apparently been poor/worse for months now.
 
Real showing how tiki taka is done atm :smirk:

Is he a definite for the WC?
 
Heh look at that Bayern cross...Muller against 4. Amazing tactics
 
If only our defence didn't lose concentration after Evra scored that screamer... we'd be getting bummed tonight by Real.
 
The thing is Jupp could adept to something like that. After his mediocre first season he took a good look at what made Dortmund so successful and added that to your possession orientated style and what came out was the perfect mix out of both worlds that pretty much cruised to the treble.

Guardiola has now reverted a lot of the positive stuff that Heynckes added to your team in the his second season and reverted them back to where you guys were under van Gaal in his second season.

A lot of people like the fact about Guardiola that he has such a clear vision of how football should be played the truth is think this narrow mindedness of his is much more a weakness then a strength.

I agree completely, I said it in one of my previous posts. It was unnecessary to change so much right from the off. We will see how he adapts next year, but seeing us play in those two matches against Madrid has just been dire. No penetration, no intensity just sideways passing. Gary's comments hit the nail on the head.

:lol: Ok fine, if you want me to be cocky then I will be. Here goes, we are beating you with our reserve keeper :smirk:

Well, okay, not that much.. :(

He was very good against us at OT.
