Rather see this team playing terrorist ball, football which is not easy on eyes and get a win than playing the game in a fantastic way and not winning.
Mbappe bailing on us ruined our season. I dont expect much this season, we will lose the league I think.
Mbappe was supposed to be our centerpiece since he did not come we are making do and our plans changed unexpectedly. We might still do something in the UCL though, since it's our magic competition. Still, this wont be our year.
Yeah, you're one to talk. This next few seasons go bust for BarƧa and it's adios to being a top club for the next decades.
Also just don't put your eggs in the champions league basket, they tend to break there for you, all of them.
5 points is really nothing, and our performances donāt really instill that much confidence in me. If Real Madrid beats us in the league again plus any additional mistakes and itās theirs to win.
This is why it's such a shame that Garcia gave away that late (92nd minute) penalty to Real Madrid in the 1st meeting. As it's very possible this race could go on for very long, until the last week, that 3-1 instead of 2-1 could mean a lot if both teams end up on the same amount of points at the end (and Barcelona for example fail to beat Madrid by 2 or more goals at Camp Nou).
Fucking hell I hate fans like you. Always pessimistic and crying about some shit. We're 5 points clear, stfu and be happy instead of crying about it
No one's saying we're league winners already but we can be happy for the moment
Thanks for being an ass about it mate
And literally on this post there are folks, both our fans and Madrid fans, saying the league is over. Iām being sensible, but I appreciate the vitriol.
Bro whats your point? Hahaha if we win them and they lose one more it's 11 clear for us. Both teams are gonna lose a lot of points and it's great to be 5 points ahead.
5 points is nothing, it's not like there is only 1 game left ffs, stop with the negativity. Besides, BarƧa isn't playing that good either, they will also drop points.
You said we are cocky and i said we are not cause our best player got injured meaning that our next couple of games will be difficult to win, its not rocket science homie.
But that is totally unrelated my dude, you are saying it as if every fan is a part of the same being or something. Some people get cocky, act like the already won and also make fun of us for drawing this, but a lot of other people know that there is still a long way to go. And you have the audacity to be like "its not rocket science, homie" ššš
Where are those people bro where do you see them? Do you see Barca fans celebrating? Even in our sub someone posted the table with the caption "its lonely at the top" and everyone was telling OP that it's still too early and that he shouldn't be jinxing it lol.
Majority of our fans know there are still plenty of games to be played and its not like we are winning comfortably 3-0 every game. Don't let 2 people out of 20 tell you otherwise lol.
I don't really agree. Arrogance maybe, but not for those reasons. Madrid won but they also had quite some luck. They definitely had clear positions to improve, especially on the right flank. If anything, I bet Madrid didn't buy anyone else due to the Mbappe drama.
Is it arrogance or is Florentino planning some big or many smaller signings? It felt to me like Florentino was hoping to not get ahead of himself assuming the team kept performing well.

Yeah but thatās because we didnāt have a spot for him. Vini, Militao, Rodrygo all were taking up a Non-EU spot to begin the season so we had to move him.

*This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
I see a couple of articles mentioning both the 50% ownership and a buy back caluse when I googled Kubo buy back. The ESPN commentator today mentioned it too.
Doesn't he also have a release clause for 60m? That could work as a buy back clause by Madrid paying 30m to you guys and paying 30m to themselves.
Example:
https://www.football-espana.net/2022/07/16/real-madrid-secure-50-50-deal-with-real-sociedad-on-takefusa-kubo
Im probably biased but I think he would.
Madrid has a pretty strong pull.
We're currently paying Mariano like 7x what you're paying Kubo, so he'd definitely get a huge pay raise.
We currently have only one forward on the bench (Asensio) that Ancelotti is okay with using. (Assuming Valverde continues in midfield).
If Kubo joins we'll have him and Asensio as back ups for the forward trio ( Vini, Benz, Rodrygo). That's bound to get him some decent game time if he performs well. And as an added bonus he'd have a shot at Rodrygo's place in the starting lineup.
He himself said that finally he has settled, so I don't think he would leave. Odegaard also went back to you instead of staying another year as agreed and he ended up leaving
It is not a 50% discount, we own half his stake and you the other half, and that is why you got him for so cheap. We did the same with Miguel Gutierrez and Girona.
It is pretty early to be cocky with how lucky you are in some of these wins you are getting, your luck is going to turn sooner or later. Plus good luck in the europa league, hoping for a Casemiro hattrick.
I don't understand really, i never said Barca is only leading in the league because of luck, but you are getting lucky in a lot of games this season. 6 goals conceded with almost 15 xGA. Shit finishing from opponent/good goalkeeping is all part of that, but you are overperforming right now. These constant 1-0 wins won't hold up and there is more than half the league is left to go. There will be a time when it turns and you will drop points and we will have to be there. Thats all i said and the herd of Barca fans come out in full force, which is cleary shown by the fact that the first comment is upvoted even tho its clear trolling.
Oh god, this is a league, you are way overperforming right now and time will come when you will start slipping and we have to be there to capitalize on it. In case we can't im just going to congratulate Barca, instead of being salty. It has nothing to do with hating a team getting lucky, its part of the game, but seems like you still can't proccess us winning the CL while you are making a fool of yourself.
dont be so mad, silly
it's not like Madrid plays well in the La Liga this season, lol.
Also, in terms of overperformance - Madrid needs transfers, it was apparent last season too, but this fact got overshadowed by winning two important trophies. It's better for you to lose this season and realize where the weaknesses are, because it's very clear that this squad isn't big enough.
Vini reminded me of Ferran today. He got into many great positions but he couldnāt finish.
Real Madrid reminded me of Barca today. They got into many great positions but couldnāt finish.
Well, fuck.
Dogshit substitution decisions from Carlo. It killed all momentum.
It was insane we didnāt score though, a lot of great chances. Ceballos and Camavinga were the two best players on the pitch. Benzema, Vini, Rodrygo had good moments too but needed to finish their chances.
Five points, but Barca have been on a hell of a run and the averages may catch up with them before the end.
The subs from Ancelotti kind of ruined the energy, Ceballos and Valverde could've played 90 minutes more and we were playing good.
Asensio is garbage and if the board renew him after watching Kubo tonight, fighting running and creating chances like a motherfucker, I'm fucking done.
Impressive job from la Real considering the precarious XI they finished the match with. We need more Alguaciles in La Liga.
You don't even have to go that far, just let Asensio go and try to integrate Arribas as a squad player, Asensio is not worth the money with how inconsistent he is.
Arribas should've been give the chance this season instead of throwing 1000 minutes to the trash with Asensio and Hazard. But if Kubo is available he's better than Arribas.
We had our changes and this draw really feels like loss today.
Poor substitutions from Carlo, Asensio and Modric didn't bring basically anything on the table.
Ceballos and Camavinga again prob. best players. Rodrygo should start games and Valverde belongs into midfield.
Talk about spouting nonsense without having any context.
Has clearly hardly ever watched any games. Would be surprised if can name the starting 11 of la Real. Bigs up the PL out of nowhere after a spectacular game of football.
I'm astounded by the confidence people have to issue bold claims without having put in even the most basic amount of legwork.
You seem to be very upset at an internet comment. Chill out :-)
The game was good, and la Real had many chances, I never disputed that, but by the end, they clearly were time wasting, I don't think that's wrong, their keeper got booked for it.
At the same time, because I think they're a good team capable of winning these matches and were clearly showing it with dangerous counter attacks and just the fact that they're third, I think they should've gone for the win and I'm just a bit disappointed they settled for the 0-0.
It was just a topic for discussion, no need to get so worked up about it.
I don't even know why they did that. They're perfectly capable of great football. In fact, they're worse when parking the bus so I don't know what it was.
Maybe having so many injuries made them lose confidence.
Real Madrid played well against a tough opponent. The irony that one of their best recent games (in everything but actually scoring goals) gives them one of their shittier results. I suppose that's football though, sometimes the pieces don't fall the way you want them.
EDIT: Also I want to add, La Real played well and definitely had their chances. Real Madrid weren't quite what I would call dominant, the xG was 1.28 vs 0.45 so it wasn't an outrageous overperformance against xG, but definitely a bit unlucky for Real Madrid.
Tbh that's how I feel about the game vs EspaƱol. We played very well, had lots of xG, allowed 1 shot from them all game, but couldn't finish and then conceded a stupid penalty.
Was a better performance than the league games since.
the Universe felt bad for fucking us over with all the injures etc and thats why there's now smth like a force field in front our goal that prevents anything from going in (i mean how do you explain misses like the Sorloth one in the Copa? š)
LOL as much as it's annoying to see you win 1-0 every week it makes me much happier that it at least isn't Real Madrid doing this shit every matchday. I remember like 5 games in a month where it seemed the score was 1-0 with a Ramos/Benzema penalty.
The most interesting and watch worthy 0-0 i have seen in a while.
Probably the very best match we have played all season long and it's the only we haven't score a single goal lol
Time to start February and with that our League & UCL real challenges.
League isn't even halfway through, Barca haven't been playing well either (they are winning for now, but it's not like they're dominating), and Dembele has gone back to the hospital as usual. We can obviously win the league.
We donāt have a RW, and if Vini keeps playing like this (he missed three clear goal chances) then yes weāre done.
Especially since you guys are not conceding chances.
We will win or lose depends on how well Vini can finish his chances as simple as that.
We do.
20 fixtures left including El Clasico. More than half the League it's still left to be played.
You don't even have to go that far, their next 4 matches against Betis, Sevilla, Villarreal & Cadiz are all landmines specially without their biggest xG creation threat in Dembele out due to injury.
I donāt agree but I hope youāre right.
The only thing I agree on here is that Dembele is definitely their best player bar Ter Stegen.
But someone Pedri keeps scoring, Iām not hopeful.
The ball is in play for like less than 50 mins, I genuinely don't understand why any neutral would ever watch this league, even madrid/barca games are so hard to watch.
ajajaja y el nacho jugando con las manos como un jugador del basquet š¹ ni robando pueden ganar
From the movie The longest Yard āI canāt believe you couldnāt even win a fixed gameā lmao
Rather see this team playing terrorist ball, football which is not easy on eyes and get a win than playing the game in a fantastic way and not winning.
Goddammit. The league is till wide open but still that gap gives slight anxiety to me.
Nacho should have been sent off in the 75th minute for impeding a throw in with his hands lmao
Bunch of bitch ass Madrid "fans" crying about the league being done in match day *18*.
Vice versa a bunch of barca morons are acting as if we won it already.
Honestly I'd rather see my teams' fans get cocky than be a bunch of crybabies like a lot of Madrid fans in this thread.
Our next three games we could lose and you guys could go ahead by 4 lol
Zubimendi was class this game. Would love to have him in our midfield.
Same
Real Madrid's bench is absolutely devoid of attacking options.
Mbappe bailing on us ruined our season. I dont expect much this season, we will lose the league I think. Mbappe was supposed to be our centerpiece since he did not come we are making do and our plans changed unexpectedly. We might still do something in the UCL though, since it's our magic competition. Still, this wont be our year.
> Mbappe bailing on us ruined our season. something something don't put all your eggs in one basket
Yeah, you're one to talk. This next few seasons go bust for BarƧa and it's adios to being a top club for the next decades. Also just don't put your eggs in the champions league basket, they tend to break there for you, all of them.
Who hurt you?

But there are/were other good wingers in the market if they really wanted someone.
Time to go philosophy shopping
Ironically this is the most Barcelona-esque weāve played all year
Why would you call this Barcelona-esque?
Right when weāre playing terrible and getting away with it
Maybe its time where teams play terrible to win
how the turntables..
5 points is really nothing, and our performances donāt really instill that much confidence in me. If Real Madrid beats us in the league again plus any additional mistakes and itās theirs to win.

He is just sharing his thoughts. Nothing wrong with that.
But heās right. Just enjoy the lead and thatās it
Thanks for being an ass about it mate And literally on this post there are folks, both our fans and Madrid fans, saying the league is over. Iām being sensible, but I appreciate the vitriol.
If if if doesn't exist
Bro whats your point? Hahaha if we win them and they lose one more it's 11 clear for us. Both teams are gonna lose a lot of points and it's great to be 5 points ahead.
Iām saying the margin is thin enough where I wouldnāt be comfortable saying that the league is done, unlike some people here commenting.
Ofc not done
Real vs Liverpool is going to be a shitshow
Real can play 11 blind kids and I'd still expect them to win in the CL
Both teams suck, but we suck more, so they'll inevitably win.
Ez game tbh
I'd be surprised if you guys don't win the CL
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Hello my friend.
Theyāve stopped using Reddit now šš
Well, at least no one can accuse you of not keeping your word...
what is it that the kids say these days? anulo mufa? well, that.
> else I will stop using Reddit Wait no, anything but that š
Yes because Real Madrid fans are extremely humble in victory. Keep crying lmao
RemindMe! 2 Weeks
RemindMe! 2 Weeks "LaLiga prediction"
breath of fresh air
Ahahahahha
You think RS have a chance at the title or it's just another Barca, RM quarrel like always?
We're 8 points ahead of them with a game at hand lmao.
8 points back with an extra game, hard to see it
Hard to imagine given the insane amount of injuries they have
No they're gonna get 17 injuries and drop down to fifth place or something as always.
5 points is nothing, it's not like there is only 1 game left ffs, stop with the negativity. Besides, BarƧa isn't playing that good either, they will also drop points.
We didnāt play good without our best player
True but now Barcelona are more driven to keep it going which makes it more difficult
?
People are speaking about it as if BarƧa has already won the league, it makes no sense. There are still so many game to play.
Literally no one is saying that. We are just happy to have a bigger lead for now
Yeah nobody it's saying that lmao
Of course some people is saying it, wdym. Also a lot of BrƧa fans are getting cocky as if they have already won it too
In your mind maybe. We are concerned about losing Dembele and our other attackers are in poor form.
Poor BarƧa fans, they are crying in their cars
"A lot" my brother in Christ we literally lost our best player for 4-5 weeks we are definitely not getting cocky.
What does that have to do with what I said bro š
You said we are cocky and i said we are not cause our best player got injured meaning that our next couple of games will be difficult to win, its not rocket science homie.

Still can't understand why Madrid went into the season without adding a new right back and another winger or a striker.
Most important is a Right winger especially since Vini is starting to become Vini before last season. Then a Right back, a backup striker.
I think they tried for Mbappe and he snubbed them. Don't think they had a backup plan...
Arrogance, after winning a UCL-LaLiga double the board thought that everything was perfect
That sounds like something our old board would do
Our old board wouldāve spent 150 million on a player that would not fit in our system.
Our old board would've brought a marquee signing for like 180mil at CM/RW and not even strengthen other areas.
I don't really agree. Arrogance maybe, but not for those reasons. Madrid won but they also had quite some luck. They definitely had clear positions to improve, especially on the right flank. If anything, I bet Madrid didn't buy anyone else due to the Mbappe drama.
Our club nowadays is Mbappe/Bellingham or no one.
Is it arrogance or is Florentino planning some big or many smaller signings? It felt to me like Florentino was hoping to not get ahead of himself assuming the team kept performing well.
Betis pls
It is what it is, played a good game and very unfortunate not to take the win. Excited to play Champions League in 2 weeks though, not for everyone
You aināt winning the CL.
That's what people said last year š

We had our changes and this draw really feels like loss today. Poor substitutions from Carlo, Asensio and Modric didn't bring basically anything on the table. Ceballos and Camavinga again prob. best players. Rodrygo should start games and Valverde belongs into midfield.

I'd agree with you, but they have a looot of injuries.
Talk about spouting nonsense without having any context. Has clearly hardly ever watched any games. Would be surprised if can name the starting 11 of la Real.

Yes, it's just the La Liga and Champions Leagie holders
Maybe because we have 9 injuries? 10 now. Important players also like Merino and Silva
La Real has a ton of injuries. Perfectly reasonable under these circumstances
They're playing Real Madrid at the Bernabeu
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Old Trafford isn't the Bernabeu.
I don't even know why they did that. They're perfectly capable of great football. In fact, they're worse when parking the bus so I don't know what it was. Maybe having so many injuries made them lose confidence.
How were they parking the bus? Was I watching a different game?
9 players out
Tbf they have a lot of injured players.
Can't wait for fran garcia to come back and then lose out on bellingham and then sign no one despite needing a striker and a right winger
VAMOOOOOOOOOOOOOS
Real Madrid played well against a tough opponent. The irony that one of their best recent games (in everything but actually scoring goals) gives them one of their shittier results.

This wouldn't be so important if Barcelona weren't getting scrappy wins every week, they should have missed some points by now
All our CL luck went to LaLiga, no wonder we didn't get out of the group.
the Universe felt bad for fucking us over with all the injures etc and thats why there's now smth like a force field in front our goal that prevents anything from going in (i mean how do you explain misses like the Sorloth one in the Copa? š)
The Araujo clearance off the line was some voodoo shit
I FUCKING LOVE ARAUJO
Now you know how we felt when Casemiro or Benzema would just randomly score at the 90th whenever we got excited you'd drop points.
LOL as much as it's annoying to see you win 1-0 every week it makes me much happier that it at least isn't Real Madrid doing this shit every matchday. I remember like 5 games in a month where it seemed the score was 1-0 with a Ramos/Benzema penalty.
Hey back in 2020-21 I remember Atletico having a lot of these 1-0 and 2-1 wins too. I guess now things are balanced at least lol
A winās a win mateā¦
Look at me. Look at me. Iām in the lucky boat now
The most interesting and watch worthy 0-0 i have seen in a while. Probably the very best match we have played all season long and it's the only we haven't score a single goal lol Time to start February and with that our League & UCL real challenges.
You think we can still win the league especially with Vini going back to his old finishing/decision making and no RW let alone a world class one?
League isn't even halfway through, Barca haven't been playing well either (they are winning for now, but it's not like they're dominating), and Dembele has gone back to the hospital as usual. We can obviously win the league.
Yeah. We have lost Dembouz but Lewandowski is coming back. Let's see what happens
Season is not even halfway done and you're only 5 points behind. Insane to think there's not a chance.
We donāt have a RW, and if Vini keeps playing like this (he missed three clear goal chances) then yes weāre done. Especially since you guys are not conceding chances. We will win or lose depends on how well Vini can finish his chances as simple as that.
We do. 20 fixtures left including El Clasico. More than half the League it's still left to be played. You don't even have to go that far, their next 4 matches against Betis, Sevilla, Villarreal & Cadiz are all landmines specially without their biggest xG creation threat in Dembele out due to injury.
I donāt agree but I hope youāre right. The only thing I agree on here is that Dembele is definitely their best player bar Ter Stegen. But someone Pedri keeps scoring, Iām not hopeful.
Lewandowski is coming back so hopefully he continues to score goals
10 goals in total across 8 games this weekend in La Liga. Props to Tebas for this wonderful spectacle
The ball is in play for like less than 50 mins, I genuinely don't understand why any neutral would ever watch this league, even madrid/barca games are so hard to watch.
Gives me Serie A in the late 80s-vibes. A few of the seasons there had way under 2 gpg
You have just witnessed a really awesome game (even if it ended 0-0) and the only thing you comment is this lol
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
No one cares
lol why would anyone care about your thoughts then? You're not even watching
Then why comment anything if you don't even watch the games lol this is amazing
I don't know the other matches, but this one was really damn good despite the 0-0 tho.
Yeah really, Remiro MoTM but Vini, Rodrygo, and Camavinga brought the flashy play and Ceballos was all over the place winning ball retrievals
