Re: Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad

PSG's defensive issues are at fullback. Bernat, Kurzawa and Meunier all play worse defense than Marcelo lol.

BUT, with Gueye and Marquinhos covering, the defense has been a rock. Marquinhos was trying to do the job alone last season and he couldn't cover enough ground.

Mbappe has not been average, he's actually having a very good season. But it's Ligue 1 so I think it's allowed to not take it as serious as La Liga or PL.

Also, finally saw this match in its entirety, starting to love Hazard all over again. He's gonna shit on a lot of fullbacks in the 2nd half of the season. Big Ben did really well in this match, good luck to Jovic in replacing him or even starting with or without him and Ramos reminds me why I have a legit love/hate relationship. Bill, kindly talk to your grandson please.

Will I end up regretful that I sold my tickets for this season? Maybe, but it’s way to soon to say. We’ll have a better idea after next couple of weeks.

I admit that Zidane does deserve some credit and team does look good, but they haven’t played any strong team in this pleasant surprise run.

And to MTO, you’re right Valverde has surprised me. What happened to your dramatic exit? Did you get the help you needed?

I have always been one for theatrics, Bill. And for being correct, as you can thoroughly attest to. :coffee:

Time for some payback.

So what line up will ZZ bless us with tonight. I'll be surprised if Valverde doesn't play RW again which means we will likely waste 60 min doing feck all while Hazard and Benx continue to live in their own bubble where they think doing 1-2s between themselves infront of 10 defenders will somehow work out. And dont get me started on the depressing midfield where they are happy to play the ball side to side for 50 mins

by Makaveli Sun Jun 21, 2020 2:48 pm

Hazard Benz Dunno who on the RW spot

Kroos Casemiro Valverde

Mendy Varane Ramos Carvajal
Tibo

This is our best line up probobly.

by halamadrid2 Sun Jun 21, 2020 6:12 pm

You know that, I know that, the world knows that but ZZ doesn't give a shit

we win this, i'm confident we will win the league. sociedad havent been been their best so we should be able to get the W. this is why h2h is important

You've said this before and ended up dropping points lol. I feel like you're willing your mind to believe this tbh.

by Perucho21 Sun Jun 21, 2020 8:01 pm

Real Madrid starting XI: Courtois, Carvajal, Varane, Ramos, Marcelo, Casemiro, Kroos, Valverde, Vinicius, James, Benzema

James is a big surprise. I hope he is given a free roaming AM role rather being placed at RW

by Mr Nick09 Sun Jun 21, 2020 8:32 pm

Zidane is off his fucking rock with that line up, nothing but a a win is acceptable

i am willing my mind to believe this. with all the inconsistencies and points dropped from barca and their players, i dunno, i don't want to think any other way with respect to la liga that is. i'm really just psyching myself up

by Makaveli Sun Jun 21, 2020 8:46 pm

Zidane is mental. That line up is a fucking surprise.
I can call it right now, Benz will be stranded on top unless James has a great game today.
I don't see Vini scoring but oh well, lets wait and see.

by Perucho21 Sun Jun 21, 2020 8:55 pm

My only hope is that James does well if he is implemented on the Isco role.

Dropping Hazard is shocking to say the least. This isn't the type of game to drop him

by Thimmy Sun Jun 21, 2020 9:33 pm

We can do this. Sociedad have looked awful since the restart, and this match shouldn't be any different.

by Mr Nick09 Sun Jun 21, 2020 9:48 pm

James looks like he hadn't played since October...oh wait :facepalm:

comm said something like they've won 3 of the last 4 in this fixture hmm

by halamadrid2 Sun Jun 21, 2020 9:52 pm

And this ladies and gents is why James never plays. He has no business being in this line up

We have been great defensively owing largely to our brilliant midfield. In attack Vini is on his own trying to create shit. Benz is on holiday and James is a turtle

I genuinely thought that was just a poor finish from Vinicius. Pen for us, it looks like Razz

They've won 3 of their last 4 matches against Real Madrid, yeah. Their last two matches in the league since it restarted, have been incredibly poor. All of their players seem to be out of form.

by Perucho21 Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:29 pm

We were just given a lifeline

by Thimmy Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:35 pm

My god, James is useless

by Mr Nick09 Sun Jun 21, 2020 10:56 pm

Yay top of the table

by Doc Sun Jun 21, 2020 11:06 pm

Well, 3 points is 3 points however you get the win.

by halamadrid2 Sun Jun 21, 2020 11:12 pm

James is atrocious. He slows us down to turtle pace. Tsking 50 touches before deciding where to pass

And I forgot how little fight Asensio has in him. Jeeze hustle alittle boy

Valverde is incredible. You see him everywhere. Vini excellent yet again

I would really look to play Vini, Benz and Hazard together with Hazard in the Isco role. It would be marvelous
