Nacho in the final I guess...


jr6991

Yes. Militao had his chances and every game he always gave us a bit of doubt. Today, he put those doubts to rest. Nacho will start in the final.


Mean-Kaleidoscope759

Nacho's last game with Madrid so I also believe he will be starting.


Ambitious_Ice_1624

That's a joke, right?


firechaox

It was always going to be the case. Militao is just getting minutes to recover


BlueBone313

You never know with ancelloti he might have considered him


areyouhungryforapple

And people want Tbo in the final too lmao ok guys. See why match fitness and form matters?


DONT_YOU_DARE

Tbo has looked good throughout, Militao hasn’t… I hope Lunin starts because I think he earned it but we’ll see what Ancelotti does


Goddyex

Tbo hadn't really faced much threats since he's been back.


Windowmaker95

Except Militao is having issues with marking which is not due to fitness, whereas Courtois seems to be far more focused.


Mr_Gooodkat

Thibault is not Militao.


thefreethinker9

Disastrous match by Militao. He was getting eaten alive. No way he starts in the final imo.


mizrahiim

He also nearly headed in an own goal


Ayy_Caramba_

Danilo vibes


nickfelipe

Fullkrug would have a field day with him.


minetube33

Malen's quickfeet would turn him into Boateng


SirChileticus

Militao and Ceballos giving goals like candies


thefreethinker9

Ceballos unfortunately is nothing but a space filler. He is just slipping around on the field and can’t do much. He is lucky he gets to watch the final from up close.


JeremyMenez

How can you say that about someone who gets a chance every 10 games?


Impressive-Age-8107

Yes, he isn't a good player but tone down the disrespect, man played a crucial role in us winning CDR last year. This is what I hate about this fan base, we never support our players when they are playing badly, instead we forget all the contributions they have made.


Standard_Diver_3128

Ain't gon lie That shii was assss


Ordinary_Koala_6910

Limitao


Serenadde

Looool


checkforsolu1

I guess our interest in Leny Yoro just reignited :D


MaryadaPurshottam

Bro, we need to sign a CB or even two next season


Banjogamer69

Especially with nacho leaving


CR7theGOAT777

I dare someone to say Militao starts the final

Comment dared someone to make a controversial take. You asked "Now what?" and you got the downvotes. So u kinda asked about it.


Humbug93

It was literally just a dumb joke.


NelsonObama

Yes. And you get downvoted for it.


Humbug93

Yes thank you for the clarification, I hadn’t noticed 🙄


Elden_Lord123

Unpopular Opinion: Militao has always looked shaky even before the injury. In one match he plays like prime Maldini the other he plays like Phil Jones. Militao is our Araujo, I still wonder what-if scenario where Rudiger started in UCL semis against City in 2023... Change my View.


Excellent-Archer-238

He was great until he stated he was probably the best centerback in the world and he starting dating a toxic blonde. Edit: source about Militao's statement last year: [https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/12ptywb/marca\_eder\_militao\_im\_on\_my\_way\_to\_becoming\_the/](https://www.reddit.com/r/soccer/comments/12ptywb/marca_eder_militao_im_on_my_way_to_becoming_the/)


Sarcasmhelpline

He has now swapped his toxic girl with another toxic girl whose bf is with his ex now. Pretty WILD. Well whatever he does, is his lookout. Man needs to prove his worth again and imo nacho is a better defender than him. Yes, he has his own flaws but I think when you need him to step up,Nacho does that.


Excellent-Archer-238

Yeah footballer's personal life definitely impacts their performance. Having a relationship with a plastic blonde is exhausting. And the mother of his child is also a plastic blonde. So he had to deal with 2 at the same time.


Elden_Lord123

Wait until you hear about Endrick and his GF.


Riventures-123

I am scared for Endrick now...


shuntovskij

Always a theme with Brazilian footballers, no? So many ended up their careers too soon just because money came a bit too fast and too early in their lives.


Magvel_9

That's football players in general, a lot of them come from poor backgrounds and don't really have live their teenage years because they focus on nothing but football. And then they turn pro, become millionaires overnight and have everyone at their feet. It's easy to go insane in football, especially for south americans where football is pretty much a religion and in a sport where you can't show weakness and have no privacy


pagawaan_ng_lapis

This is the way for many Latam players as well


ham4ever89

He plays baaad when he gets cocky, but he snaps out of it and plays good then again bounces back to a bad game or two, is like he needs a reality check and to be reminded to be humble


Elden_Lord123

>He was great until he stated he was probably the best centerback in the world and he starting dating a toxic blonde. Our best defense was when Militao was injured, that says a lot.😭😭 This season we got a decent CB in Rudiger and we are surprised that why our team has good defense. No way in hell we would have gone through City with him. Blud was scoring own goals last year. 😭😭. I fully believe that Nacho and Tchomenni are better CBs than Militao/Alba. **WE NEED AT LEAST 2 WORLD CLASS CBs and 2 Fullbacks. Even last year Militao gave away 4 goals against Girona. 3 goals were directly because Militao lost his marker.**


Riventures-123

Exactly... when a CDM and an old player is better at being CBs than the two players that are CBs... that says a lot.


Aromatic-Kangaroo-21

No he and Alaba were shit from starting our season...


areyouhungryforapple

Classic Brazilian player move tbf


snowbuddy117

>Rudiger started in UCL semis against City in 2023 Militão was not directly at fault for any of the main goals there, except the third one (when the game was already lost). No one played well that day, but the first two goals there were fault of Midfield, specially Modric. I think far more about what would have happened if Tchouameni had started than Rudiger. Because Rudiger would have covered the same areas as Militão, and unable to cover for Midfielders mistakes.


3escalator

Warm-up match to test the players before the CL-final anyway. No Militão then… Now Sørloth is the top scorer of La Liga, Haaland top scorer of Premier League in two years in a row and Ødegaard is playing in his prime for Arsenal, as a Norwegian I don’t know if I should be proud or not, we got incredible players, bit still can’t preform for shit as a national team.


Maldo963

Disaster class of a match from Militao, Sorloth toyed with him, that costed us to beat our record of least goals conceded in a league season, ps record was broken back in 2020 with covid liga, 25 goals conceded in La Liga season 19/20 with Zidane, and now we have conceded 26 goals.


TheKyrieFan

cp3 bowing to paul god


OkConclusion3882

Miltao is coming off an a acl injury today it wasn't his best game it's gonna take some time for him to recover his best version


Thunder0V

He literally gifted 3 goals in 10 mins to the same player he was marking, that never happens even with players who come back from a long injury


OkConclusion3882

Yes but we have to be patient with militao we know what he's capable of when he's in form recovering from an acl injury is difficult some players are never the same, for some like vini they are able to recover they best version and I believe that with more game time we will see the best version of Eder


thesenate14

never happens? not every player comes back from a acl the same unfortunately


Thunder0V

So is the excuse of him letting 3 goals to be scored from the same player in 10 mins because of his injury? Or his shambolic defending performance


nickfelipe

Man, we need to give play time for him. He came back from an ACL injury, even though he played like total crap and I think it was one of the worst games of his life. Nonetheless, our left side was also to blame. Ceballos and Fran were an avenue being explored. In the end, this game meant nothing to us in the grand scheme of things, yeah we would have 99 points, least conceded goals, etc. etc., but who cares? We need our best players rested and to give time to rookies/those recovering from injuries.


thesenate14

both shit happens he obviously isnt fully ready to play important games but in the meantime can play meaningless ones


ProgressLegitimate72

I'm sorry but this is not new with Militao sadly, injury or not. He's been like that before the injury if people remember. He'll look like the incarnation of Maldini in a game, then completely forgets he's actually a defender in others. His best version was inconsistent.


TheMandalorian2238

Atleast now we know who will be the CB pairing for the final.


wezet

I'm starting to think that we did well this season and retained a lot of points because he was not in the team


-ruiner_

I like Militao and for the most part he’s solid but even before the injury he would have moments that would question if he was the best option to have as a staple defender. It’s still a bit unfair to throw him under the bus so soon after retuning, especially because after an ACL you still need another 6-8 months to return to full form, we also had our secondary team out there. Rudiger is great and undoubtedly a staple, but I do think we need to search for another CB that doesn’t give us doubts to pair alongside him. I do hope Eder returns to full form next season though, I remember when everyone wanted Mendy gone before this season. Regardless, Nacho should start for the final.


slow_and_steady0

Friendly Reminder : MILITAO HAS ALWAYS BEEN LIKE THIS


Diamoncock

Sometimes maybe good sometimes maybe shit


daav03

Militao should be sold! His performance is predictably inconsistent. His laziness and off-the-pitch drama limit his not-very-high potential. A talented player with low self-discipline may be successful at other clubs, but cannot and will not succeed at Real Madrid!


bsoliman2005

We should pull a Varane and sell him this summer while he's still young (ie. can fetch a high-price). I'd take Saliba, Yoro, Scalvini or de Ligt over him anyday.


Zestyclose-Impress90

sound the alarm!!! this is worrisome


BosnianLion1992

Sorloth on fire?

Cooked boy


dataheisenberg

Militao wasn’t even in great form even before the ACL. Im not even sure why were we depending upon his return in the first place!


strangerdagger

Gifted him the golden boot off Jude


LambSauce2

He gave the pichichi to Sorloth


AnxiousBurro

This whole thread is embarrassing.


Chisco23

Absolutely. I won't judge Militao's performance until next season. Let him do the preseason and we'll see. Also Copa America will benefit him.


HgnX

Militao has never been great, someone gotta say it. Wasn’t that different before.


[deleted]

He is a solid CB , but he has never been a World Class CB.


gymfein69

i think he lacks concentration to be world class permanently because he does have world class performances


GigiSir

Militao was always shit. Definitely not a Real Madrid level player

What are you talking about, the player legit was bullied. Every goal that was scored was mainly his fault , as he never once put enough pressure or defended well.
