Re: Varane appreciation thread

You lot are terrible.

Touching the ball doesnt mean its not a foul.

Anyone who saw the replay saw he put Evra on the floor and got a minor touch on the ball.

by Die Borussen Thu Feb 14, 2013 4:31 pm

actually they both went for the ball its just that varane managed first and as you can see evra jumps a bit in the air to try and drag the ball with his right foot but varane's leg is in front so he decides to dive

by Pedram Thu Feb 14, 2013 4:34 pm

Why Barca fans care so much if Varane should've been sent off, it's not like we're in direct competition with Barcelona.

Getting the ball matters.

Why do I care?

Because I watched the game and it was unfair...thats it.

What other reason do we need to comment?

Being a Barca fan is irrelevant to why I care.

Of course I also want you to lose, but that doesnt make it any less of a foul.

It's not a dangerous challenge though.

But only Barca fans are complaining which is why i'm asking why it's so important to you.

Nope, go back, Man Utd fans are complaining also...Mole thinks it was a injustice, a Juve fan or two thinks its a foul.

So players aren't allowed to make any contact when going for the ball?

by VanDeezNuts Thu Feb 14, 2013 4:57 pm

stop. can we all just admit that the matter would be more conclusive if there was a better angle?

its very difficult to tell from that perspective if he won the ball first or not. i have watched it a bunch of times and the quality of the picture and the angle are very low. from the other side would present a much better view.

I'm not appreciating him unless he has some real defending to do. Real's front 4 did all the defending last night (as in most big games). The game was played in Madrid's half for only 14 % of the time and in the middle or in United's half for 86 % of the time. Laughing

Not buying this "Ramos is world class", "Marcelo is world class", "Pepe is world class", "Arbeloa is solid" shit. They are all shitbags. Shitbags I tell you.

by nichabr Thu Feb 14, 2013 6:25 pm

both of the centerbacks for Real were crap vs Manutd...one lost his marker (Varane) and one left his post foolishly (Ramos) and its funny because you don't always see both centerbacks doing crap on one goal.

by Mamad Thu Feb 14, 2013 6:46 pm

Now Varane is to blame for the goal? goallegacy sometimes Laughing

Most of Madrid fans agree that Ramos is shat this season. go create a poll in Madrid section and see the result.

Marcelo was the best LB in 2012 so its not wrong to call him world class.

Pepe is complicated. in some games he is a beast but he makes mistakes. so i personally call him a great defender but not world class cuz of his mistakes.

Arbeloa is good defensively but shat at everything else. that's the reality.

At the end, Some Madrid fans =/= all Madrid fans. and these players are not shitbags. you are talking nonsense.

The irony when it's only been Real Madrid fans saying it wasn't a foul, and everyone else (which are Barca fans, according to some Real Madrid fans Laughing

) saying it was a foul.

Simply pointing out the irony/hypocrisy of the fact that some are calling everyone who disagrees with them Barca fans, when the only ones who agree with them are Real Madrid fans Laughing

Look at the Welbeck goal wtf was varane doing 4 feet off him jumping to header a make believe ball?

by Pedram Thu Feb 14, 2013 7:51 pm

Barca fans moaning about the ref decisions in a match they have no business, funny thing is though their own team gets a bunch of favourable calls on almost every games in champions league.

Varane appreciation thread - Page 10 Ramosd

He was marking another player. when he saw the ball going on Welbeck's head he went that way to stop it but he was far from it and couldn't do anything.

the goal was 80% Ramos and 20% Lopez's fault. Varane? zero. he was marking another player.

by the xcx Fri Feb 15, 2013 7:57 pm

Hes got good sence of a position awareness, tackling, marking, height, composure, defensive posture and good at aerial duels..Exactly what you want from a defender, now the only thing Id like to see from him is consistency.

by Vrane Fri Feb 15, 2013 9:51 pm

Dont know where these comments about varane being a failure come from.

He was great during the match, he did his job, always makes sure that his positioning and reading of the game are well noticed...

Has great passing as well.

The tackle on evra was not enough for a red, and it could have been a yellow indeed but i would like to see the action from another angle.

I would have expected evra to go a bit crazy had it really been an assault by varane as some make it seem.

The first goal by welbeck is not on him, he was marking another player, diego lopez and ramos went a bit crazy, and we conceded, varane tried to get in the act but it was impossible considering the multiple failures...

Not his fault, if it is, then we would practically be asking him to remove EVERY BALL, and CLEAN EVERY MISTAKE, when its just not possible..

Ramos played poorly, he even fudged some offside traps into pieces and always looks clumsy with those flying attempts at last minute tackles.

by the xcx Fri Feb 15, 2013 10:02 pm

The commentators were certain that Evra went down too easily. If anything he milked it.
