La Liga 2024/25

[Marvin look out]

Bellingham with an assist and a goal despite missing a pen. This is his team. You put him in his best position, as a 10, and then you see what you do with the players around him.

What a game!

No idea how Rioja's shot stayed out at the end.

 

[RoyH1]

Ancelotti needs to get a mental coach for Vinicius. His ego and temper are going to destroy his career if he doesn't manage to get them under control. It's so easy for opponents to get under his skin.
If Rüdiger hadn't taken him out of the pitch, god knows what kind of silly thing thing he would have done.

 

[Morty_]

Yeah, even Satan can't beat this lot. Liverpool have nothing on these guys.

Liverpool beat this team not long ago, and without many issues.

We need to improve to give them a contest, and i'm not sure we will.

Are Madrid ever the ones to actually drop points right at the end of games? That was never going to go in, it would break the Universe.

Knockout stage Madrid is a different beast and they'd beat Liverpool, imo.

I'm really not sure what Carlo himself does, tbh. He's a senior and experienced coach. He really should be putting his arm around him and getting him to calm down. He's just always constantly riled up.

 

[Felixmarte de Hircania]

What a game!! Vini has to control himself, and even he have failed a pen, Bellingham did a great game.

Madrid derby a few months back they conceded in 94th minute to draw 1-1.

And some people said Foden was a better player.

Jude has that dogged fight and spirit to him. I love it. Missed a pen but didn’t let it get him down.

I was really taken back by Vini’s reaction. It just seemed so over the top given the situation.

When Vini is on form, he’s a top player but it just seems far too easy to get under his skin.

We let the least Madrid player on the team take the pen and he missed. If we'd let the Lord take it, he scores and we don't lose

That's Atleti for you. They've somehow parlayed themselves into being able to out-black magic us in derbies, but only in derbies. The rest of the time they're still el pupas

As to Vini: there's a very clear line as to his ability to control his emotions on the pitch before and after the racial abuse started. He obviously needs professional help, and I hope he's getting it.

People calling him an idiot can go jump off a cliff though. STFU please

Vinicius nearly won the Balon Dor but apparently it’s Bellingham’s team. The hyperbole is hilarious.

 

[Lay]

So is it better for Valencia to get relegated so Lim leaves?

Maybe I exaggerated a bit. But Bellingham was Madrid's best player in La Liga last season, and I would say in the past two months and a half he's been considerably better than Vini or Mbappé have been this season. On current form, he's Madrid's best player.

I'm not entirely with this one man, normally I agree with your views, but Vini allways had issues way before the incidents due to his age and the enviroment of his arrival to Madrid.
In fact I think that the treatment when he was playing really poor while being just a kid, mostly by the Press and even facing a certain difficulties within his own lockeroom, looked really hard for him to deal due to his age.
Later with his consolidation as a player and the confidence in himself, in an understandable and distorted way, he started to use any sort of rejection as fuel and nowadays looks like he needs to show how hard (after all he blew every obstacle in fron of him under the spotlight, not easy feat, yet certainly got to his head).
From feeling falling from a cliff without almost even starting, to redeem and become a star under such spotlight can't be ease.

Aaaaand barca socios are now asking for Laporta and his board to resign. Predictably

I know i may be very late jumping on the train with this, but Real Madrid should never ever be written off in Champions League. Yes, Liverpool do look better at the moment, but it is Real Madrid.

I will never forget the 1999/2000, one of my first Champions League seasons which i followed with more understanding then before.

Bayern looked amazing, in span of two weeks (February 29th, then March 8th 2000) they scored eight goals in two games against Madrid in the second group stage, and Real had to scrap 2-2 at home against Dynamo Kiev to progress into the quarters at all.

Then in quarters, we drew them away at Bernabeu only for them to pick up 3:0 lead in 52 minutes at the Old Trafford, and then they faced off Bayern again in the semis. Two months after shipping eight goals in two games against Bayern, Real knocked them out, with certain flop Nicolas Anelka scoring only two Champions League goals of his Real Madrid career in these two games. But the difference between first two and second two games was simply amazing, even if some may say Bayern deserved to go through.

Real then proceeded to obliterate Valencia in final, a side that ended ahead of them in La Liga that year and where by many seen as the best European side at the time.

So yeah, write off Real Madrid and you will see 2022 all over again.

They'll win it again. The annual sacrifices have been made and the voodoo is back.

I don’t think anybody is writing Real off in the CL. Why would you?

Honestly it was a long time in coming. They basically let him sell off their future for one league title...because his ego couldn't take being "the president that righted the ship but didn't win anything"

For sure, Laporta ain't my Cup of Tea at all BTW...but on a general view, they tend to shoot their own feet constantly more than any other club, they are their worse enemy
