CL SF : Real Madrid Vs Juventus

lol cristiano has a bad game and all of a sudden its "tendonitis", the guy had a bad game, people have that, nothing's flaring up, he's not injured. the fact is we've lacked creativity in the middle of the park, and cristiano is basically a striker now, he needs the midfield more than ever at this stage. i'm not going to talk about bale, his *bleep* ups have been well documented on this forum. the media and fans are partly to blame, i feel ancelotti got caught up in that whole twenty something game unbeaten run and decided to stick with the same team even with tired legs.....i posted on here before, that run would mean jack shit without a title. let's hope that not only do we maul juve, but we are disciplined enough to face a tough barcelona side.....if not the season will be a complete farce, considering what our rivals have pulled off

when benzema scores and assists, the quoting will be glorious or we lose and hate on bale some more, win win situation

Benzema is the only player who can win Madrid the tie. He needs to be fit though.

yeah i fear is gonna be too rusty tbh, but he is still the one who plays with the most sense in the attack, so hope he gets couple assists then bring on chicha to finish up.

Meh. CR will get 2 tap ins and everyone will spout the use a "hhe is carrying Madrid " rhetoric.

Quite Possible, but Benzema will most likely be involved in those tap ins at some point. Either as a conductor from deep or as a fantasisti behind El Commandandte and Sir Gareth Bale

is Kroos out ?

Let's hope so. Awful player who is completely useless without Modric or against 11 men.

Illarra-Khedira-Lucas Silva would be good against Juve.

Kroos will be starting on Wednesday.The important question is will Ramos start in midfield again ? Or will it be Illara who takes up that spot ?

Seriously, it has to be Illarra. Specially with Madrid needing to score. Ramos will be good for nothing and be outplayed again by Juve mid. Unless Carlo feels like he has to match the physicality of Pogba and Vidal in midfield, he should be starting Illarramendi.

Physicality and Illarramendi in the same sentence lol.

dat midfield combo

illara-ramos-kedira-lucas

Hopefully

You misunderstood. I meant he will start Ramos if he wants to match the physicality.

Illarramendi is a scrub imo.

I really wanna make a joke here.

why? i keep seeing people saying he is scrub or awful, and its usually for the most stupidest reasons or silly mistakes that any midfielder could make, end of the day we lost majority of the big games without illarra even playing and im sure we haven't lost a game with him playing all season, but hey bleep logic

...... clever girl

Got this from Juventuz forums

Enrique Ortego (Cadena COPE): "Ramos has been given the assignment to stop Pogba."

Surely this means he's playing in MF ? Dont know how credible this reporter is though.

Few other reports point to a James-Kroos-Isco midfield.Honestly if thats the case,i think Juve's midfield will fancy facing that.

Yeah, most probably ramos won't play at CM. Hei think that they will go with 433 with ramos and pepe in the back and toni, isco and james in MF

Does someone has statistics on what percentage of teams that won the first leg at home went through ?
