La Liga perdida: Real Madrid vs Villarreal

defence not convincing, but overall looks good.

So 2 legit PKs denied and Isco looking lovely as per usual. Standard La Liga performance, expecting Villareal to score sometime in the 55th minute.

Also, at this point, I think I have a fake memory of Kroos being good at shooting the ball.

we have 3 shots on target lad, what are you talking about half a dozen lol: Ronaldo FK, marcelo long shot and CR miss (which was a penalty)

we are playing good, just not creating clear chances. 18 shots, 3 on target, thats mediocre

atleast 2 shot were on post. cant really blame ronaldo on that...

wtf 2nd half villareal 2 chance sin 2 minutes.

as always, we come back from the half, and the other team is all over us, just score already

Villarreal are making more runs behind Carvajal and Marcelo so far, working...

at what time do you think we will see the first sub? i say 75-80th minute

man, i retract my words, ronaldo is shit.

atleast he looks threatening in 1st half.

what a joke this team lol

terrible coach, again. plenty of shots, few on targets. the chance creation is poor. second half, the game turns around, villarreal advances. we make subs. 0 impact. villarreal cuts us on counter. more crossing, nothing.

Yeah I'm done with Zidane, fed up see the same thing expecting different results. He is really a bad coach, we'll do well in firing him now before things become even worse.

i can't wait the press conference, i wish it was on TV

Meanwhile, Villareal, like every damn La Liga team, adjusts their strategy in the 2nd half as if they all know we would come out EXACTLY like the 1st half but just worse off and just wait to capitalize. Zidane needs to go as soon as possible, this is not gonna get any better for him.

Zidane is just a man manager, one trick pony, and his trick has ran its course. Let's embrace him for what he has won, but let's not be surprised by what is happening. he is clueless, it's ok, it's time for him to go.

I dont exactly know what Kroos is contributing to nowadays. looks a bit useless, he is one of those i would sacrifice to rearrange the team, just saying...

press conference live fot those who speak spanish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vQQyEJRlCMo

i don't think they adjusted. as soon as we went into half time nil nil i knew they'd score. with us, this season its just about patience, nobody can create any clear cut chance so just wait for guys like marcelo for example to bomb forward and forget about defense. the offense is crap so are the midfielders and the defense. villareal were just patient. we are learning the hard way. this sucks even worse than the 05-06 season.

a clear out is absolutely necessary, a bunch of these guys are old in football years, lol and these defenders we field are soft. i trust the experiment of signing young spanish back ups who were beasting at osasuna et al, will end here

no need for press conferences, nothing out of the ordinary will be said. i can sit here and type out the whole press conference even without watching and there'll be minor differences

this could have very much happened last year, thank you Ramos for all those beautiful late headers that gave us life over and over.

@Tito
It wasn't some grand adjustment, all Calleja did was just add on an extra winger at HT to increase the likelihood of them having speed on the wings to counter us at...to which they did. What my boy Zidane did, wait till the 70th minute to bring on Lucas and Asensio. As he always does. Nothing changes.

To add insult to injury, 2 legit PKs denied, the Villareal player being offside leading up to the goal and Fornais sprinting 80 yards to get to our box while Kroos could not even be bothered. Or Casemiro for that matter.

Do you know who actually tracked back...Asensio, an attacking midfielder. Sigh
