I trust Mourinho to set the team up perfectly for us to win, I hope the forwards take their chances though, they've been very profligate in front of goal in the recent clasicos.

Pique and Puyol slow? It's rare to see even Ronaldo sprint away from them in a 1 on 1.

I just want to win even if it's a hattrick of own goals from Messi.

They'll as slow as they come, never been impressed with them, we'll have a lot of chances to score against Barcelona, I just hope the forwards keep their composure and bury the chances.

If Higuian actually decides to keep his head in the game if he plays we are set.
I can bear to think what I'll do if he misses as many chances as he did during the last couple of clasicos.

Pique slow.

^^ good example. I notice stuff like that every game.
I'm not sure what Buddy was talking about please excuse him.

That video is very funny, Pique was clearly ahead of Ronaldo when he began running, he only used his body to obstruct Ronaldo and prevented him from bursting into top speed!

Ronaldo will do this to him again next week

I wonder what will be your excuse if Madrid lose to Barca.

buddytaller Still on FIFA Mode i think.

That match was three seasons ago, he's grown a lot slower since ... If we lose against Barcelona it wouldn't be because Pique and Puyol were fast, it'll probably be because our strikers left their scoring boots at home.

if barca lose because Pique and Puyol are slow.

I must say You Have very High Football IQ.

buddytaller According to you Madrid have Super fast almighty attacking power in Ronaldo and co(and playing at home in front of your own fan). Barca have slow defender in Pique and Puyol . How almighty Ronaldo and co can left their shooting boot at home considering they are facing their greatest Rival .If they are not scoring goals in most important match than,they are not good enough.

beautiful football i do try, i really do but your words do not make sense to me, maybe its your english, oh well

try again.

well its all about the consistency of some individuals
madrid showed in many cases that is good enough, but for example pipita's inability to take his chances costed us
a team is judged in all areas, we are good enough for defending well and attacking well, finishing is instant you cant judge the entire team from it

Well if your striker can not take their chance, than its your problem.Benzema misses few chance as well,not only Pipita. Barcelona are not good at finishing specially in last few games.

Last time You face Barcelona With Adriano as a CB yet you can only manage a draw.Imagine Marcelo playing CB aganist Messi. When Barcelona's starting CB are Pique and Puyol its really means something.specially in el clasico.I agree Puyol is not as faster as he use to be, but again his leadership is vital for us.

For example Mascherano has pace and tackling skill. But i still rate Puyol as a better defender.

Pace is not every thing.

Marcelo at any position is Ballon D'Or worthy.... So... Try again

that was a bad example though, adriano can play as a cb whereas marcelo no

Its good to see that madristas are not using their defensive casualties as an excuse for this match.

Heck, according to them, their 3rd choice defense is still superior to Barca's 1st choice!!

Too bad that he's better than any defender from Barca...

What is wrong with you? Puyol is a barca legend, your fanboyism for anything Madrid is too obvious.

are u ok? you are the blind one, puyol is 34, Varane is better than him RIGHT NOW any minute...

Please stop. Your embarrassing yourself. Varane is NO WHERE near Puyol's ability and probably never will be for a long time. ATM Puyol is definately better than Varane every day of the week...

Alves is definately not on his worst form in his life. Since coming back from injury, he has proven himself to be a vital part of the team with his linkup with Messi, runs down the line etc. Don't kid yourself bro.

Ronaldo catches up to pique in that video..

To all madrid fans saying varane is better than puyol right now...are you guys day dreaming?? I'm a madrid fan and a huge fan of varane's composure and play but he's no where near puyol atm. Pique may be but not puyol. Yes he has the ability to be as good as if not better than him. But stop comparing puyol and varane. The guy's a warrior who kept ronaldo in his pocket in most of the clasico's. He's actually the one player everyone hates but has to respect no matter which team you support and comparing puyol to varane right now is downright disrespectful. He's played against the likes of zidane raul r9 and countless other legends. Who has varane faced?? some english scrubs?? Dont insult puyol by comparing him to varane!!

Listen.
Only one Madrid fan, to my knowledge, said that Varane is better than Puyol.
Them continued to bash on age, speed, and their skill level.


One fan. It's not all of us.
