His injury was not being bought recently.

Who is this?

A broken man(ish)

And you should not tie your own self worth on another player's criticism.

Seriously, you are retaliating as if he attacked your own mother.

As you can see I was actually praising him for once Yes I said cowardly because the guy never has the balls to take responsibility and have a shot, always looking for Ronaldo like some sort of beta looking for his alpha dog. You need to be a bit selfish especially if you're a striker. Without players like Ronaldo making runs for him he is useless. Evidence? How poor he has been for France for as long as I remember to the point that Giroud is gonna be the preferred option pretty soon.

Ironic how Real Madrid spent £195m on their front 3 and they get knocked out by their own academy player.

Bale is simply not in sync with Madrid.

Carlo is going to get it, but I don't think Madrid are going to get any better next year tbh.

Why do you believe they won't be any better next year, if I may ask? In my opinion, there's a stark contrast between the performances of the current team, and the one we had back in october-november of last year, which was a far more balanced, consistent, attacking threat. If they regain that form, I don't see why next year shouldn't be better. With that being said, I have absolutely no clue about what's happened between then and now. Bale's always been there to give them a handicap; that hasn't changed.

Congratulations to Juventus, by the way. As much as I hate to admit it, the better team won.

they're talking about Benzema i guess .

but didn't he come off before Pogba ?

What I was thinking. Benzema got subbed at like 65th minute, the first sub of the game.

lol.

Seriously though, take it easy a bit. Ronaldo was every bit as ineffective today.

And what does Kroos do? lmao Juve stopped pressuring him at all at some point because they have figured out he never makes a pass that is in any way creative or dangerous.

Still cant believe we are in the finals! Forza Juve!

Also is no one going to talk about how awful Ronaldo was?

danyjr just stfu dude, your clearly deluded and again you can't just praise the guy, without slighting him cause you know he is great

Kroos hasn't had 3 days without games for like 2 years He has been broken for months.
Ancelotti doesn't give a shit.

Under the assumption that you sack Carlo, you are going to uproot your tactical set-up again. Bale will still be here, and Perez will still want him played.

I am not sure which coach you guys will bring, and I am not sure there are available players in the market to make you instantly better.

Somehow, in the last market, you manged o weaken your team. I am not confident with Perez not doing it again. In fact, taking the time Perez spent as RM head, the team severely underperformed.

Congratulations to Juventus and their fans, but more importantly I'm happy for Italian football which has been going through a long downer. They have a nominee in Champions League and hopefully another one in Europa League.

Best of luck in the final.

Now Real Madrid will buy De Gea, Pogba, Reus and Aguero

Congratulations to Juventus though!

Happy for main man Tom getting a final!

Great tactical play both games.

I was talking about Benz. What injury did he have which meant he had to come off early?

Because Pogba looked much worse, yet lasted alot longer.

My prediction 1-1 with a super goal from Pogba

I should have put some money on that

RealGunner wrote:Also is no one going to talk about how awful Ronaldo was?

Invisible. Not the first time and not the last time.

Why he didnt shoot and tried to cross when he was in on goal, I have no idea.

I know he has a reputation for being somewhat done, but seriously? Who settles for a draw?
