Juventus vs Real Madrid

kroos-isco-james mid is proven weak sauce, they clearly can't stop any attacks, especially if bale and cr continue doing 0 on defence

play kroos-illarra mid in a 4-4-2, keep a solid shape and good ball possession for once, dictate the game and win, but nope play a weak mid and make the game way closer than it needs to be

I agree with chad. james-illara-kroos-isco with ronaldo-benz (if hes fit) will do wonders.

It is definitely going to be a 433 with Isco-Kroos-James in midfield and BBC in attack. We are not going to go out of this game without conceding so it is important we score as many goals as possible and don't fcking miss chances

Also last week towards the end of the Valencia game Carlo switched James and Isco hope he plays them like that today. They are dangerous when they link up together in the middle rather than having to combine with Bale/Ronaldo on the wings

all we need is a 1-0 to win the tie. But with our defense it's never that simple

please, we gotta do this right.

i'd seen some juv fans fapping/already talking over the final tie like we are non exist...

Casillas
Ramos-Pepe-Varane-Marcelo
James-Isco-Kroos-Bale
Benzema-Cristiano

Do it Ancelotti, do it.

It looks different, but it may just well be the best system.

Marcelo,Bale,Ronaldo all on one side.... noooooooo

what about move ronaldo to right forward.

well, marcelo hogging the ball is 10 times better than bale,
if bale have any conscious he probably will help fill in the blank left by marcelo
that way atleast he made himself useful.


sound very viable, but will not happen in real life.

That's exactly the idea.

He is useless on the right hand side. It would be a good move, at least on paper and with the right tactics, it can work. plus he has played in that position for most of his career, he destroyed at lot of players on that side. maybe he can do the same versus lichtsteiner and bonucci

for this game I am trying to be as positive as possible towards bale. this is one game he needs to show some energy and passion. I am really hoping, for Madrid's sake.

plus in this game he has to defend. Madrid need the players to cover and defend when the attack breaks down.

@hala when the last time kroos-james-isco beat a big team? cause in reality that setup lost very big game or draw, we don't create more chances than normal, your focusing too much on the names on the jersey bro

Kroos to be that potential holding midfielder Honestly hope Illarra gets the nod, just feel this is the match where he shows everyone his old La Real form.

Is Benzema starting? Will be huge for us.

Chad its not about what I want. If it was up to me Ramos and Bale would not play and iker would be looking over his shoulder after every game

It is about what will likely happen. Carlo will definitely play that 433. I would be very very surprised if we started another formation or different players

I am glad Kroos is there, we need those long balls to the wings

i understand that hala, im just saying kroos-isco-james mid doesn't really create more chance than a kroos-illarra-james, i just want a steady mid tbh

Well, that is the starting line up.

Carlo riding with Bale and Ramos.

*sigh*

I believe in the rest of the guys though.

Pepe on the bench....... *sigh*
Bale and Ramos....... *sigh*
4-3-3............. *sigh*
Carlo.......... *sigh*

Kroos as that midfield pivot. Sigh. God bless you Carlo.

what the point of trying to play well under carlo? if he picks the same team week in week out

Hope varane has a better game than the one he had against them last week. As for the rest, expected hope they turn the heat up with high pressuring and defending compact

Surprised at Pepe being dropped. THought he was your most consistent defender this season

He is..... but Carlo...... ffs.

Summer is soon probably a way to make Varane stay. Other than that and Ramos being untouchable there is no other viabke explanation

Pepe-Varane doesn't work.

Form matters. He single handedly cost the Valencia game. Varane is much more reliable any way.

Pepe was shat against Barca too.

Good first half. We really need to make better use of our counters though. That 3 v 2 counter with benz making the wrong choice was criminal but he is playing excellent. Our best player along with Kroos
