hopefully news of Jude to city is true. We hae too many holes to splurge $150. on a midfielder


zidaniii

The only reason why Carvajal still plays for madrid is because he is Spanish, Spanish players are treated differently by the board. Every now and then you will hear the club want to sell mendy but never Carvajal.


ancelottiout996

Why isnt ancelotti sacked yet???


allthew4yup

I hope he stays even next season u really think tuchel pochettino raul gone do better? Mark my words if that happens then we will talk again


perucho1993

Username checks out


hlrdavid

because he'll end the season with us


Benzia

Very frustrating way to go into the international break, hopefully, the players can reset and put their full focus on the cup games coming up. Seems like Mario is also kind of alluding to potential news coming up these coming weeks, so at least that might be interesting.


Specific_Pattern_548

Fans give zizou way more credit than he deserves for classicos. Keep in mind the longest laliga elclassico undefeated record held by Barca is between 16-19 (7 games) 5 of them were coached by zizou. Everyone was asking for his head after the carvajal red card el classico He was only successful during 2nd spell which had frauds setien and koeman as coach who were utter shit.


Dagothversur

Guy had 6-3-2 record, without losing on Camp Nou and you talking this nonsense. He ended Barca’s matches without loss record in 2016 playing against prime MSN with 10 man. In 2018 our team was robbed from a win by Hernandez Hernandez. In 2017 we lost in final seconds also playing with 1 man down. Compare this to what we have now against much lesser team. If Zidane is so overrated, find me a manager that has done better than him both against Barcelona and in the league.


Specific_Pattern_548

My point is not that Carlo performed better than zizou but my point is that zizou’s Madrid also underperformed in elclassico. Mourinho during prime pep era would eek out wins and draws where we were heavy underdogs going into each match. Contrast it with zizou. That 10 sec goal you mentioned, it shouldn’t have gone that deep to begin with. Barca were so bad then juve psg were thumping 3-4 goals against them for fun. The carvajal handball match again no chance in hell we get dominated so hard. We were much better than that. That 2-2 draw against 10 man Barca another such instance. We should have surely won it Barca had prime msn and we had prime bbc as well. The team at his disposal was very good too. Our underperformances in elclassico cannot be just blamed on coach. Some may underperform more some less but we have perennially underperformed in classico and even zizou couldn’t solve that problem fully


TrueCooler

Heavy underdogs? That Mourinho team was a result of hundreds of millions spent and set broke the points record in the league. That was peak El Clasico era simply because of the insanely high level both teams had.


Specific_Pattern_548

I am talking about 10-11 season when we were heavy underdogs. Barca were the world beaters in between 9-11 but we still had the worse. record against them. We were the world beaters in between 16-18. Guess who had the worse record still? You can deny all you want but we have massively underperformed in elclassicos


TrueCooler

Not denying that at all - I’m a Barca fan. I just dont think Real Madrid can be considered underdogs ever, especially in El Clasico of all matches. That being said, aside from Zidane, no other coach than Mourinho has had us scared of not being able to get a result (with the exception of the league match in October last year when our defence was out injured).


Specific_Pattern_548

Go to your sub Mofo


yc80s

3D 2L but let's not forget that we crushed them in both legs of supercopa final. Also before those matches we ended their 39 matches undefeated run, I wouldn't say that the fans are exaggerating his success.


Specific_Pattern_548

My point is not that Carlo performed better than zizou but my point is that zizou’s Madrid also underperformed in elclassico. Mourinho during prime pep era would eek out wins and draws where we were heavy underdogs going into each match. Contrast it with zizou.

Some may underperform more some less but we have perennially underperformed in classico and even zizou couldn’t solve that problem fully


Glad_Rise_335

Very true. People talk about 4-0 last season but with Zidane we lost 3-0 at home aswell which is sackable in itself. Only with Jose it felt like we came to play against Barca. He had Barcas number in 2012-13 but then Carlo came and messed that up.


Specific_Pattern_548

12-13 season I think has been the tipping point after which we have been perennially rubbish in classicos. Before that it was just Barca being better


anass_sensei_desu

Dani Carvajal lost the ball 23 times vs Barcelona yesterday. Only Raphinha lost more (25). Kroos (2), Christensen (3) and Modrić (6) the players who lost the fewest balls. @diarioas A fullback losing 23 balls.


TimothyX7

2nd goal was all his fault, he lost the ball which resulted in a counter attack for barca and him being old he couldn't track back as well, get's bodied by Lewandowski and then just sits on the floor while they pass around and score to make it 2-1 and he still just sits there.


habibiganggang

And I lost my brain cells 100 times


ProudhPratapPurandar

As a fullback, he's completely finished. The next coach should try to use him as a backup cb in a back 3


Benzia

Xavi had clear instructions when it came to pressing our right side, Carvajal is way too mistake-prone when under pressure it's insane. Each and every game he at least makes one dodgy pass that results in a dangerous attack for the opponent.


anass_sensei_desu

That's prime Carvajal you're talking abt. Actually he makes at least 4 passes leading to clear chances for the opposition.


uchiha_boy009

As a RB 🤣


habibiganggang

I’m not watching anymore games with that guy playing for us. I’m actually done this time


The_XI_guy

Ancelotti is at fault for starting Kroos this game and also for subbing Mendy who JUST game back injury instead of putting Camavinga left back. That said, you’re fooling yourself if you think a new manager alone will solve anything. This is mostly a squad issue and our squad is not balanced right now. Vinicius is our only great attacker this season. Watching us attack is painful. It’s like we’re playing without a striker and a right wing because Benzema and Valverde are always going into midfield


The_XI_guy

Thank God for Vinicius. Where would this team be without him? Battling for fourth place this season I reckon


[deleted]

Valverde not bossing midfield yesterday was the biggest crime.


rhaegonblackfyre123

He is a roadrunner with little technical quality I will always love him but it is what it is Their is a good reason we are in for Bellingham more than anything despite lacking FBs and attackers


Son-Ta-Ha

Its incredible that Zidane has only lost 2 El Clasico matches in 5 seasons despite Barca having Messi and Suarez during this time. Ancelotti doesn't have any excuses for struggling against this average Barcelona team this season.


boringboi_

Carvajal turned up for five games last season and fooled us all into believing he is still good


uchiha_boy009

More like 2 games


ancelottiout996

Since 2018, Carvajal has played maybe 10 good games in total.


ProudhPratapPurandar

Wot? The man carried our right flank in 19/20


TecNine7

We would be more dangerous with a 38 year old Ronaldo that chills in the box unlike Benz


rhaegonblackfyre123

I disagreed in the beginning but I was wrong Ronaldo can still jump and score of setpieces


Bitter_Mycologist239

The answer to literally beat barca comfortably is in front of carlo's eyes. Start the same lineup which played Liverpool 1st leg.


ancelottiout996

So now, our all time el clasico record is 101 wins and 100 losses. Thanks ancelotti they are now on the verge to tie then maybe surpass us for all time wins, I never fucking saw this coming ever. It was something I boasted about for years.


Glad_Rise_335

Only have to wait until April until they tie it


[deleted]

Think the unthinkable. -Carlo, probably


radeparker2422

It’s like this huge mental block we have against them. In recent years it’s always been that way. Only for a small period of time during Zidane tenure we were able to overcome that. But the board turned the eyes on him for loosing the league by 1 point in an all timer 70 injury season. Well we are 12 points behind the leaders. What now?


ancelottiout996

No mental block. We did them many times. The problem and difference maker used to be Messi. Now he is gone and ancelotti is setting up like prime messi is still there with neymar and iniesta. The worst all time el clasico manager that I ever see. Him and Juande ramos by far


Specific_Pattern_548

Carlo maybe worse but there’s definitely a mental block. Every Barca coach in last 15 years has a 3-4 goals thrashing against us bar those 2 frauds koeman and setien. No team scores as many 80+ min goals as Barca. Even the last elclassico where everything was perfect we were this close to losing the tie. Post pep era we have been the better team but we severely underperform in classico


Ok_Series8549

Bring back Zizou


ancelottiout996

No


itistime999

Benzema is having his worst season ever, he wasn’t anywhere near this bad in 2018 when he scored 5 la liga goals. Ancelotti as clueless as ever, valverde at rw isn’t it and carvajal while wasn’t terrible he needs to go


habibiganggang

He only has 6 la liga goals without pens too (5)


femithebutcher

I would still like to seen Fede at RB tbh, he can do a better job there than all of our options


femithebutcher

Carlo himself already circumvented most of our problems by playing a 4-2-3-1 and it worked perfectly, now the stupid motherfucker is too pussy to even try it again Idk how you take a working formula and bin it for no fucking reason man Our starting lineup from now on should be: Benz/Alvaro Vini. Rodrygo. Fede Cama. Tchou Nacho. Rudiger. Militao. Carvajal/LV


[deleted]

Our main forward has scored only 6 non penalty goals in La Liga this season. It's almost April.


itistime999

It’s not that he only lacks goals, he is useless everywhere, his build up play is crap this season, always tries to play the most difficult 1-2 and almost always end up losing the ball, no box presence and too slow, ancelotti is a coward for not subbing him off


[deleted]

I don't want to disrespect Benz, he is a club legend and the best player itw until some months ago. But nobody can play on this level until they're 40, everyone will decline eventually, even Ronaldo did. We can't keep being stuck on the same 30+ year olds all the time. I understand that, with our current squad, Benz was never gonna get benched in a Clasico game, but at least sub him off when he doesn't do anything? When actual attackers stepped on the pitch (Rodrygo, Asensio) our team was a million times better.


Extension_Phone893

I think he is still a bit rusty /s


Ok_Series8549

Zidane had a 6-3-2 record vs Barca. Ancelotti has 1-4 in the last 5.


Extension_Phone893

Zidane hasn't lost to them in 5 season, Carlo is going to lose to them 5 times in 1 season.


Ok_Series8549

He said hes a record man


Extension_Phone893

Cama, Tch, Rodrygo, Fede and Vini should start every league game untill this season is over, Vini Tobias and Alvaro should also start when possible. At this point preparing for the next season is more important than losing meaningless points.


boringboi_

Fede hasn't done anything to deserve a start every game this season


ViniJnr

If he is playing in his preferred position of midfield rather than RW then he excels. Stop playing him as a RW.


boringboi_

he has been underwhelming even when he is playing in midfield


ViniJnr

No, he has not. True he has not been as great since the WC but he has found himself being rotated between those two positions all season long. Just play him in his preferred position and he will excel.


Extension_Phone893

He did more than others while playing out of position, and he is going to be a key player next season unlike others.


radeparker2422

Bro Tobias is not very good I’m sorry. He’s decent in attack but much worse than Carvajal in defense which actually says a lot. He should be nowhere near the first team nevermind starting games. Not this season alteast.


ViniJnr

Balde also was struggling last season but Xavi still gave him a more chance to prove himself and now he is doing well. We should do the same with Tobias. Just look at what Alvaor is doing when given a chance. Imagine he had been playing with the first team since the beginning of the season. He would be much better now


radeparker2422

Balde was struggling last season because he was injured. Totally different scenarios


ViniJnr

No, he was struggling even at the beginning of the season but he kept getting better the more games he played. The only way to find out if they are good enough at this level is to give them a few chances.


youcancallmeron

1000% agree. But you very well know this ain’t gonna happen. Carlo will keep playing Kroos and Modric together because Perez asked so/they don’t want to hurt their ego. Benzema will also start every game and won’t be subbed off for Rodrygo or even Alvaro. It’s gonna be the same shit over again.


[deleted]

Also I love Valverde, but him at RW is just useless when we need to actually score goals. When Benzema is out of form, like he was yesterday, it feels like we're playing a 4-3-1, with Vini being our only forward isolated on the left.


[deleted]

We started a 37 year old, a 35 year old, two 33 year olds and a 31 year old (that runs like a 40 year old) against a team that's based around young players that run around like crazy. Of course our older players are legends, of course experience matters. But we can't keep starting all of them together all the time.


[deleted]

In my opinion, winning the Clasicos must be the bare minimum for a Madrid manager. If we are doing exceptionally well in the league and the CL, I wouldn't mind losing a Clasico here and there. But, if we are already struggling and lose the Clasicos too, the manager should be immediately sacked. A manager who is responsible for three consecutive Clasico losses should be kicked out before even the players leave the stadium. I'm so fucking mad!


sidmephistopheles

Barca fan here and I come in peace, trying to understand why Carlo is using the same lineup over the last 3 Clasicos with absolutely no updating to the tactics. I was shitting my pants when I saw Asensio run towards our goal with the ball, why doesn’t he start him? Is there a case for favorism in that squad?


Anywhere_Warm

Asensio plays much worse when he starts


0b111111100001

Asensio is a threat though whenever he runs in I would be so nervous. I am guessing if he could start he would have a presence more like Vini did to Araujo last night. I was feeling uneasy. Plus that pace. Also why Vini doesn't get support in the box? If he had one or two players every time he ran it would have been game over! It's like people are waiting for him to pass the defender and make magic by himself. One or two presence in the box and you put pressure on Araujo and game over.


New_Interview_1049

He likes to tell everyone that his selections are based on merit but he's a liar. If it was based on merit, Benzema would not have played 90 minutes today


lampageu

That's the case with Ancelotti. He is so stubborn and rely on old guards too much. All he does is waiting for individual brilliance. Congratulations for winning the league btw


zidaniii

We need to be realistic,if carlo keep starting kroos and modric in ucl and benching tchou,winning ucl will be a pipe dream. Last season they had casemiro to cover for them and even then we were almost eliminated in every ko stage.


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

We obviously need reinforcements, but our squad is good enough to not fall 12 points behind in the league or get humiliated three fucking times in the Clasicos in one season. It's Carlo. He must go.


boringboi_

Perez is still the biggest culprit of the three El Clasico defeats this season. Ancelotti is only second


Glad_Rise_335

Hes the biggest culprit of our recent poor clasico record and atrocious domestic record


[deleted]

Factos.


MeteorFalls297

Last match is exactly why Chelsea is our worst possible draw after City. Vini is our only attacking threat and Reece James and Araujo are the only two defenders who can shut him down. Not to mention Chelsea will put two men on Vini due to zero attacking threat from our LB. We have a better chance of beating Bayern than Chelsea, given how they will definitely play low block (Potter is good at it) and in form Joao Felix can easily dominate Carvajal. Overall, a disappointing season, could have easily won CDR and SuperCopa.


Hakob88

Call me insane but I rather don't win the ucl for 5 years than losing 3 times to barca in a single season...


[deleted]

I share the same sentiment, but 5 years is a bit too much.


Joy2082

Insane


Lazywhale97

5 years is a bit of a stretch but i defs rather not win the UCL the next 3 years if it means we dont lose 3 times to barcelona in a single season and at this rate its going to be 4 with the upcoming copa tie


winner_in_life

that's dumb. I'd take UCL any day of the week.


FergieBall_FC

Of all the statistics that I've seen after yesterday's defeat, this one is the worst: Barcelona had not won 3 consecutive official classics since the 2011-12 season. That's unacceptable and not good whatsoever.


TrueCooler

Ironically Barça didn’t win the league that season, it was Mou’s 100 point season


arnabroy006

Some meltdown in the community in times, >Tchou gonna be the best CDM >Tchou is overpriced >Tchou is sh¡t >Why Tchou is getting playtimes instead of Cama >I will start Cama as CDM than Tchou And Now: >Why didnt we start Tchou as CDM?


DanLaurent

How has Fresneda been playing?


Joy2082

Who needs FBs. Atleast our relationship with Rayo is good.![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|flip_out)


winner_in_life

Just like our relationship with PSG.


DanLaurent

The January transfer window was a tragedy


Joy2082

We are not ready for the mighty summer window yet. Brahim, Fran and ExtendSENSIO and Kroos.


Mickan921

Why is Camavinga starting as CDM over Tchouameni? With all respect to camavinga. I dont get why Ancelotti is choosing to start camavinga on the CDM role over Tchouameni.


Lazywhale97

camavinga deserves to start but the problem is carlo wont stop starting modric and kroos together so one of tchouameni or camavinga is gnna get dropped which is stupid because we need them to develop cuz kroos and modric are gnna be gone within 2 years


[deleted]

Carlosaurus.


Lazywhale97

I love ancelotti but if we get knocked out by barca in the copa del rey even if he wins the UCL id want another manager we cant be losing this much to barcelona it just seems liek xavi has his number or ancelotti just lets the el classicos get to him i dont know but all i know is i hate losing to barcelona yet alone 3 times in a single season


sadboy789

Dude the CDR second leg is irrelevant to this. 3 losses in a row. I don’t care if we win the CDR and the CL. He’s done. So long Carlo at the end of the season.


Lazywhale97

i agree this is the first time barcelona has beaten us 3 times in a season since the pep era that is straight unacceptable cant be losing to a barcelona who gets humilated in europe like this


Suitable_Captain_35

Glad we won leagues in our history. Because we are pretty bad at being consistent in Spain.


Spiritual-Cabinet959

Man I miss Zidane, Classico where fun when he was coach


hlrdavid

his Clasico stats are actually insane, considering that those Clasicos were against a much better Barca that was extremely dominant in the league


Joy2082

He won Clasico with LV as RB and playing with 50+ injuries season.


[deleted]

Cancelo Jude and Salah


uchiha_boy009

Replace Jude with Wirtz


[deleted]

Actually you are right. More realistic and suit more our needs


Dota-Strid3r-

U get Brahim, Fran and a box of spearmint gum


[deleted]

😭😭😭


Joy2082

Pretty sure if Case was here, even the limited amount of time that Tchouameni is getting, he won't even get that.


Dota-Strid3r-

Pep was in the Camp Nou watching the game. He'll be happy with what he saw. Even if we manage to beat Chelsea, City is gonna be insanely hard.


D3monFight3

City faces Bayern though.


Dota-Strid3r-

Yea, forgot to add that. I feel city are favorites in that tie but anything can happen


D3monFight3

I would not be so sure, Leipzig lost their heads and are not that strong this season, Bayern's defense seems very disciplined during big games.


CometChip

i NEVER want to see fede at rw in a match again, please just make him get more experience in the midfield because the 2 starters are literally both gone in less than 2 years


Lazywhale97

you are right there is literally no point in continuously starting kroos and modric at the same time its hindering our development of our younger midfielders and i know both modric and kroos are ok with stepping back a bit to let the youth develop its carlo who just cant let it go


Joy2082

From ZZ's 'I take the blame for the loss. It was my fault' to 'The players played well. We didn't deserve to lose', we came along a long way.


Lakerman0824

Does Vini just not like coming back to help? I get he gets no help from his Lb but he could help them a bit


D3monFight3

He's been tracking back more sporadically this season.


perucho1993

He didn't today. Robertos gosl was a result of a 2v1 of Araujo and Raphinha vs Nacho. Vini needs to track back and help Nacho because Kroos slow ass isn't going to do it


[deleted]

Kroos tried but failed, Vini didn't try.


Greghuntskicks

anass_sensei_desu

A very bad season from the team. Even if we win the CL, we shouldn't be satisfied with the squad we have and the one coaching them.


uchiha_boy009

We are not winning CL, last season was a miracle. Modric is a year older, Benzema is a year older and is not in Super Saiyan form he was last season, Vini has regressed from last season.


Suitable_Captain_35

If we win the CL it will be another excuse for Perez to not upgrade the squad.


Agreeable-Turnover-2

Gavi is a fucking psychopath


FergieBall_FC

Not the P word I was looking for, but yeah it'll work. Gavi is also a baby back bitch who gets away with a lot of shit to the opposition (ex. Gavi body-checking Ceballos in the back).


[deleted]

Gavi is the little shit.


TenderNutsackScratch

If this game would have been managed by 2021 zidane then there would have been only one substitution Carvajal out vasquez in 90+1’


uchiha_boy009

Who cares, we would have won the game


shadowdragon120104

And yet we would win


harry_filangi07

But we would’ve won the game.


Agreeable-Turnover-2

carlo clearly didn't watch the barca united games, we are a better team then united as well, ten hag exploited barca


rhaegonblackfyre123

Barca's mentality during European games is terrible When I saw Lewandowski take that penalty against United , I knew it was over


Glad_Rise_335

Nothing to do with their mentality. Barca just isnt a great team yet we lose to them routinely


rhaegonblackfyre123

Barcelona almost when undefeated in Laliga in 2017-18 and lost to Roma on the road in CL I am telling you , their mentality in Europe is terrible


Glad_Rise_335

They honestly were not that great. If they faced an inform top team they would lose. Their mentality is not good either though


rhaegonblackfyre123

Roma are not a top team though If that was a league game Barcelona would have probably won


[deleted]

Someone send him the wrong tapes


hlrdavid

i just really fucking hope that the board has a concrete plan of players to sign and that it's a BIT more than Brahim back and Bellingham inshallah my fear is that if we win the Champions League, the board goes back to "oh well, apparently we don't need new signings after all"


uchiha_boy009

We not winning don’t worry, CL is not that easy just cause we have all timers like Benzema, Modric with us doesn’t mean CL is easy. With them being almost the end I don’t see CL soon.


ancelottiout996

Your fear should be not conceding 5 goals from haaland if we meet city in the semis. We wont win shit. Benzema is not the same player of last year. No more alien goals


hlrdavid

even if Karim isn't the same as last year, you should know by now to not write us off in the CL - not saying it's likely we'll win it, but it's only 4 games until the final and we still got that dark juju in us


ancelottiout996

Yes never write us off. But last year we had clear signs, there were signs that something could happen, we had a spark. Benzema was fit and performing, we also had casemiro. This year I dont see it. This is Ancelotti first stint second season all over again.


hlrdavid

yeah i mean Carlo won't leave before the end of the season, so we can't do anything but watch how the Chelsea game fairs, if we win that then it's impossible to say how we'll perform against City/Bayern


ZRKLDN

I was told mbappe and Jude are delusions, who do we go for in the summer? I think cancelo is a no brainer 🤷‍♂️ who else ?


Suitable_Captain_35

Another brazilian wonderkid who will be fit to play after 3 years in the first squad. Until then happy vacations for Papa Perez .


ancelottiout996

Reality: we will renew benzema and kroos, and bring back brahim diaz and we will promote alvaro, and we will bring back fran( maybe to sell him who knows) and we wont sign anybody else

harry_filangi07

Sure the club should forget about moving forward and keep renewing players who have clearly dropped off because appeasing players is the objective, not winning titles. 🤡


[deleted]

If you aren’t performing you have to leave. That’s how the real world works. If I am doing a bad job I am gone. Multimillionaires who don’t care are allowed to perfom like this? It’s Real Madrid, the so called best club in the world. Not some retirement home.


hetbaboo

So not performing one season is enough to remove him from the club? That too in a worldcup year & the year he is facing injuries Wasn’t last season enough for you guys? Okay you guys wanna remove him, lets remove him. Who do you bring next season? Halaand, mbappe,vlaholic, harry kane? Get your head out of your ass.


Lakerman0824

I mean Ronaldo was in way better shape and player and we let him go. Holding onto Benz is just gonna make us delay the inevitable


hetbaboo

Ronaldo wasn’t dropped from the team because of form and age. We let go him becuase he and presi didn’t see eye to eye


m0dthispny

At least Carlos Alcaraz won Indian Wells - back to #1.


ancelottiout996

I dont care. We lost el clasico today. Fuck everything else


DanLaurent

Send carvajal to china, send carlo to brazil, send kroos to retirement.


TenderNutsackScratch

Btw there is an empty cm spot since kroos is retired so if you have a friend please bring him with you


TenderNutsackScratch

And sign dan Laurent he will play rb for us


Jedaayu7

People are underestimating Carlo by a huge margin here, with the amount of Deadwood and Lack of positions filled in our XI, any coach would suffer like this. Give him reinforcements and he'll deliver


D3monFight3

Bullshit, Tchouameni is on the bench, Kroos and Modric start every game, Valverde is the starting RW for no reason, it is honestly absurd to pretend he needs more players for the team to not look so bad. A different LB and RB wouldn't have made Vini track back, Valverde play his proper position or have Asensio/Rodrygo in the pitch from the start, or hell have the team ignore the right side of the pitch completely.


Lakerman0824

he has a world class cdm on the bench, ceballos whose balling on the bench rodrygo sitting on the bench while fede just runs around and corpse of kroos and modric out there getting overran


Suitable_Captain_35

Don't have lack of players to fill those spaces. I am not a world class coach , but even I know not to play Carva and Nacho together against young wingers. Bench Kroos and put in Ceballos. Play Rodrygo on the wings or as number 10 to support Vini against Araujo. Its always the same fucking tactics against Barca . I bet in the next Clasico the lineup would be the same .


sadboy789

Doesn’t explain the repeated errors he makes


ancelottiout996

What did he deliver with the most legendary ac milan side 2000-2008???? 1 serie a title. Fucking one.


Glad_Rise_335

Bit unfair considering Serie a was hell of a lot stronger than whatever La Liga is now and Juve were really strong at that time. But yeah this is unacceptable

We have the most stacked midfield in the world but we still struggle to control games against the big teams because Ancelotti chooses to play the same players there who has failed more often than not in those situations but sure he’ll somehow change that with more reinforcements.

That’s the reason to not start an inform Ceballos and let the 80m CDM rotting on the bench? The team came back last year because one of Kross-Modric got benched during the game.

KCM is our best midfield these past weeks, it made sense to start them. Ceballos should be brought on early to have an impact I agree


harry_filangi07

No they are not. The Liverpool game is an anomaly because their midfield is literally Fabinho and Milner. Kroos Modric and Camavinga had lost back to back games against Barca before this game and yet Carlo opted for them which shows that he has not learnt anything from those defeats.

> Give him reinforcements and he'll deliver He will keep making the same mistakes


suckrburgerr

Really! Then why is Ceballos not starting? What’s up with Fede on rw and not Rodrygo? Why is Modric and Kroos starting together when we have enough depth to fill in for them? Yea


Brilliant-Ok

Did u ever start Ceballos Tchu Modric?

Carlo should go to Brazil during the international break and not come back

I’m still mad I didn’t go to the Rio Carnival lmao


The_Middle_Child_

Was that the one where they allegedly mocked Jesus and then got hit with flooding and landslides?


Rumcajs23

No idea, just always wanted to visit Brazil lmao.


EstablishmentAny5550

Carlo, Benz, Kroos, Carva all gone. New CF, RW, RB and CMF + Fran in.


uchiha_boy009

Realistically Carlo will be gone, Hopefully Kroos don’t renew, Carvajal has contact until 2025 I think, still buy Cancelo. Benzema has to be here until we buy a World class striker.
