He can cry about it in the match thread.
Comment is relevant though.
Whatever you say JD as its your interpretation that really matters...
Tbh, this thread should have been created for better deserved praise. Lopez had another ordinary game...

It was his mistake that created such a situation...

Im going put this out there.
Its worse than what Nani did. And whatever people say about Nani can be applied to that.
That is all I will say.
I know it must feel like i am following you around . What you say is true and no one is arguing that violent conduct can be interpreted in many ways and if lopez had smashed into someone and gotten a red card, under the current rules there could be no complaining . but the fact is it was nani whose act was considered dangerous and the ref had every reason to send him off
I thought lopez was very good tonight

No, its fine, respond to my posts if you need. Keeps convo going.
As for your comment, I dont think Lopez did anything wrong. He went to get the ball, Vidic got their first. He had no intention to get Vidic, it was a dangerous action (a punch) but a normal one he had to do.
Same as Nani, if he wanted to control the ball he has to put his leg in the air, no intention to get Arbeloa but accidents happen.

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
If you punch the ball first and then the player, it's no foul. But if you punch the guy before the ball, that's a clear foul. That's a foul by Lopez... but then again, Vidic probably got open by fouling lol. Like i've said, the penalty box on FKs is usually complete chaos in CL. Ref doesn't want to call anything. For example, there's keeper interference on almost every corner.... they actually practice that in EPL.

He is Diego Lopez
Look at his anticipation, his positioning. Look how he uses his skills and instinct to predict the trajectory of the ball. His foreshadowing technique is unrivaled, game reading abilities rarely matched. He is two steps ahead of the opponent players.
He is 10 times the goal keeper Casillas, husband of Carbonera is. He is Diego Lopez
The Four pillars of Madrid:
Diego Lopez
Varane
Kaka
Ronaldo
Kaka is what blends them together and bring the best out of them. Call me paranoid, but this madrid team is invincible.
Rot in pieces Iker, and dont ever come back.

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
Believe me guys ,when you want something, that something comes to you. Lopez doesnt even have to try to reach for the ball. The ball will just come to him because he wants it.
Looking at the clip and saves, Diego actually wanted more of them. He wasnt feeling the pressure at all. Perhaps he was even disappointed Manu players failed to deliver more shots on his goal.
Iker? Lool, dont get me started over this failure.

Pepe Reina getting a call up before Lopez after keeping Iker "He is one of Us" Casillas on the bench for the rest of the season
Lopez probably has an argument for being the best spanish GK right now.

Lopez probably didn't get called up for political reasons. Not like Lopez will get any game time anyway.

I guess Diego López should meet with Roman Weidenfeller to have some drinks together and commiserate together...

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
Ridiculous to say the least. Spanish media doesn't respect Lopez by one bit. Has the best season of all Spanish GKs and marca's response is that he should be benched for iker who was rightfully benched (not rightfully benched for adan tho lol)
smh, if he had media on his dick, he would have been called up and im 100% of that

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
lopez has no recent history with the spanish NT, where there is hierarchy for goalkeepers (and everywhere btw), casillas is n1, vades n2 etc... if lopez gets a call, its a charity call. Unless i lost my memory, Casillas led spain to a 2 euros and a world cup while being outstanding and making 0 mistakes, specially in finals. VDB is in his right to trust a player that did so much for him. he also has the right to manage a group and not to shamble everything because one player had a very good 4 months period.
how people can change opinions in couple of months. just last season when Jupp arrived at Munich bayern fans hated him with a passion, now they are ready to build him a statue

Let's not get ahead of ourselves, there's no way he was starting or even getting called up.
Let's not act surprised.

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
yes, he has. again, he is managing a group in which pepe reina has been for the past 5 years and more. He is an emotional leader them, and chief cheerleader. there is no obvious reason to get rid of him to give a sympathy call to Lopez if he is not even going to play.Se7en wrote:Mr Nick09 wrote:lopez has no recent history with the spanish NT, where there is hierarchy for goalkeepers (and everywhere btw), casillas is n1, vades n2 etc... if lopez gets a call, its a charity call.

Reina is one of those guys who keeps the players together, and IMO one of the reasons they won all these trophies, even though he didn't play.

Better to have a guy like Lopez(De Gea in a few years) breathing down Iker neck to get better and improve. I doubt Iker ever has to worry about losing the #1 spot to Reina. But VDB suffering from Lippism.

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
6 months is more like 2 weeks in a keepers world....and yes..there are much much more deserving. Andres Fernandez and Guaita are the ones that jump to mind - I'm sure Arq would throw in Iraizoz.
Del Bosque sticks with his guys and cares more about chemistry and cohesion than form at this point - mostly because it's proven to be the winning formula.
My complaint from now on will be if Arbs remains a starter. Great backup, squad worthy no doubt - but I think we can use a better right back.

Re: Diego López Appreciation Thread
is he even squad worthy that arbeloa? i stick my neck out in saying that both Azpi and Carvajal, even he only has a season at pro level are both more suad worthy than he is. Man has been on a free fall for about 3 years.
