Okay everyone its time to wipe our tears and move on


The Copa Del Rey has finally returned. Its the time of the season where our subs and canteranos get a chance to play and prove themselves. It'd be a great game too to leash our anger over the loss by a thumping but if history has taught us anything we need to be wary of Ponferradina.

They were in Segunda Division last season but got relegated to Segunda Division B Group 2 [Castilla is in Group 1 in comparison]. They will be looking to return next season to the second division again. I don't know anything more about them to be honest but I guess all they've got going into this game is to make headline by upsetting the current title holders and prove they exist. Wish them all the luck.

Now personally I wish we'd get to see our cantera players start or get subbed in, at least just one. [Don't know who to choose from though ]. Choose from Alex, Carvajal, Jese, Nacho, Morata and so on. No bias with mendes

Please make it happen mou

Now onto our subs we'll probably see everyone who didn't start with Barca to play. My preferred Lineup:


Game is in 2 days 8PM Local time.

Great with a game already so soon.

_______________Adan
Carvajal___Varane___Albiol___Nacho
_____Granero___Sahin___Alex
Callejon_______Morata_______Jessi

If Jese doesn't play I'm going to bust some heads.

Looking forward from Jese, Varane and Sahin

I've got uncle flo on speed dial, I'll be sure to pass that message

Mou has to repay for playing CR in Clasico with playing Castilla in this game, or else

expect all first teamers to start and fnish the game, callejon might get a 8 min run in if he is lucky

Cristiano (who will prbably play) better score and apologise to us all on camera, or else Ill remain sad.

Most did say he might get a start in the post match, So lets hope he's true to his word... He may start CR7 to get his confidence back up...

Hope Morata gets called up to. He was beastly on Sunday.

Only Jese was called up
i think Nacho and Carvajal have to walk on water to be called up

Confirmed team
Goal keepers: Adán, Jesús and Pacheco.
Defenders: Varane, Marcelo, Albiol and Sergio Ramos.
Midfielders: Altintop, Khedira, Granero, Sahin, Özil, Callejón and Kaká.
Forwards: Cristiano Ronaldo, Higuaín y Jesé.

Mourinho confirmed that Raphael Varane, Nuri Sahin and Hamit Altintop will be given the nod to start.

i think the Copa Del Rey not matter more than la liga and champions league also i was thinking when we will defeat barca ? after 3 or 5 years ?

and what we are going to do in camp nou ?

Mourinho won twice on Barca . once with inter milan and once with real madrid
The plan was to defend And play on the counter attack.
i guess this is the only way to defeat Barca . also i would like to share with you guys what Mourinho said after the match was very Absurdity that barca won because they were lucky . they won because they better than us and we are so far away from them

hmm those who Mou liked from saturday got their rest...makes sense

Jose said:
"Fabio faced Ajax and Barcelona and won't play tomorrow. The same goes for Alonso and Benzema. Di Maria is suspended"

alonso barely played 20 mins.... benzema again didnt play a lot....forgot that di maria was suspended but i think he wouldve been rested as well and then there was pepe and lass who both also didnt play vs ajax

when you look back at it these are the guys who actually fought for every ball..so it kind of makes sense

i just think Mou was satisfied with these compared to the others bar Higuain and Kaka b/c they obviously didnt play much

hope ronaldo fails to score and jese comes in and scores after just 30 secs, oh wait ronaldo will score his usual hattricks against these :rolleyes:

He's already doing it... quitely right

1-0 Real Madrid, goal by Callejon, assist from Khedira.

2-0 Full Time. the prince Callejon and the handsome guy scored our goals.

just 15 minutes against a 3rd divison team for jessi. JOSE mourenho just me feel sad for him, he is soo insecure. I dont understand how much damage jessi could have done if played as a starter in place of either useless 160M junk (CR-kaka).

oh and marcelo shouldnt play against 3rd division teams, when he is not motivated, its a disaster waiting to happen. nacho would have better game then him.

Also i dont get the antilop signing at all, he did ok, but had so much trouble against them, it was funny.

OUT: Kaka, CR, Altintop, Granero, Caravlho, Albiol, Lass.
IN: Nacho, Jessi, Sarabia, Mvila, Neymar, Walker, Morata.

RB's: Arbeloa - Walker - Carvajal
CB's: Pepe - Ramos - Varane - Khedira
LB's: Contrao - Nacho - Marcelo
AMC: Ozil - Sarabia - Benzema - Jessi
WG: Neymer - Marcelo - Jessi - Callejon
CF: Benzema - Higuain - Morata

Khedira should be 4th CB backup, he is excellent reader of the game and his simple game and limitations would be better for the CB role. also excellent tackler for a CB.

Sorry my lap is still broken, i think i have to replace GPU for it, damn.

Anyway, ah yea the game, Ronaldo was meh, Higuain was terrible (not intrested), marcelo was meh (not intrested), kaka was terrible, Callejon was meh (aside from his goal, his passing and crossing wasted 4 goal scoring plays), Sahin was ok i guess, khedira average but did his job, Varane was a total boss, Albiololol the terrible, adan the solid minded/handed.

I missed Jese debut

How was he?
