LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid
Crucial and key game. We cannot afford to lose here. Bilbao has always given us a difficult game. Time for Ronaldo and Benz to really show up.

Re: LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid
Difficult but I like our odds.
We got a cushion but a triumph is key to ensure cushion is safe.

Pepe will miss the game. He's definitely leaving at the end of the season. Never has he missed this many games through injury since he had that long term injury nearly 8/9 seasons ago
This game will follow the same pattern. Concede a cheap goal, chase the game with a bear up top, put Morata on in the second half and get the win through him, Ronaldo or Ramos
I can't remember did Bale get 2 or 3 games? If 3 then Lucas will definitely start if 2 then Bale starts. Rest will be the same as always

Benzema has been standing us up for about three years now.
Ronaldo definitely isn't showing.

Forget bout the 1st half of the match, that is gonna be absolute dog shit anyway. 2nd half is where it's at and we'll get a winner sometime between the 75th and the 90th. Ramos or Morata.

Lineup likely a prediction of who will play against Bayern (and Atlei and Barca). It's no Isco!!
Navas; Dani, Nacho, Ramos, Marcelo; Modric, Casemiro, Kroos; Bale, Benz, Ronaldo.
Looks like he is going to live or die with the same starting lineup!
bye bye Pepe, Isco, Morata, James

He's a very good, reliable backup; what is wrong with you? Not long ago you were suggesting signing scrubs such as payet and ben arfa and now this? Both him and lucas are decent squad players. What team has a better 4th CB than Nacho? He would start for most clubs in England tbh

Gol, Benz from good pass by Ronaldo. Good game so far for Benz. Ronaldo has missed two sitters.
Re Nacho, Nick just doesn't appreciate squad players. He wants 2 elites for every position, ignoring the issues of playing time and various quotas we have to maintain. What a normal fan wants in squad players is energy, enthusiasm, intensity, and versatility. Both Lucas and Nacho have all of these qualities.

Re: LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid

So what is he super average or sucks?
A normal fan doesn't go off on squad players when they are filling in for injured players!

Re: LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid
it's the same thing for a madrid player, average = you suck. worse than that and we need to ship him to gijon.
and stop trying to tell people what they should do or dont do lol, besides im stating a fact, he is average that's why he is last in depth chart lol. you need to stop acting so hurt lol
i know the truth hurts

I'm not hurt nor acting hurt. I have the opinion that Nacho (and Lucas) are valuable squad players whether they are average or not. IMO, your criticism of an average squad player who is filling in for injured players is simply a case of critic making unnecessary noise.

Nacho is average and that is why he is a squad player and not a starter
Raul Garcia is a pos

Re: LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid
Nacho was playing poorly early on, that's my criticism. I dont care who he is, he was passing straight to the opposition and barely closing his man.
It doesnt matter whether they are valuable or not, if they play badly, i will say they play badly. That he is average is just a fact.
anyway...Marcelo is completely horrendous. Ramos is splitting himself in two trying to cover him. Positioning completely off and as i mentioned up there, i dont think he stopped Inaki (in the odd moment he was in position) even once.

Re: LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid
The way I look at it... Nacho is the best possible 4th option CB in the world today AND he's happy being 4th. Not the mention he can play both fullback positions too.
He's fine.
We're going to concede so we need to score again imo.

Would be nice if Bale shows up, he looks completely out of sync with the rest of the team

One of the few times I didn't have any real issues with our first half performance. As Sports said, we need to score because Athletic would probably score.

Re: LLiga: Athletic Bilbao vs Real Madrid
Benavente, yes I agree,. He is better than Abiol who was 3rd CB when he was here and he has been able to be a starter elsewhere. Same can be said for Nacho. Certainly he is better than Gijon!
The dilemma, club would have if they let Nacho go (and replaced him with a Vallejo or a Llorente) is the cover (as a squad player) that Nacho provides for the lateral positions. I'm sure Nick will say Vallejo or Llorente are not good enough, but then we have the quota and playing time issues.
I take Nick's comments to either be unnecessary noise or he doesn't want squad players ever to take the field!
