I like how our Madrid brothers are constantly trying to make us feel good for past few weeks. Appreciate guys

[Lucifer]

True CF goal.

[Thimmy]

Benzema really is in red hot form, these days. I almost feel a bit sorry for him, that he's not surrounded by a more established team to support his productivity.

[RealGunner]

3rd year in a row you are letting him down. He should have had 3 ballon d'Ors by now

People are just standing still watching him ffs. Move! He's going to pass it you!!

Things cant just be bloody straight forward. I was on here enjoying the misery of barca and we suffer 2 shock defeats. Hell I dont even understand what we were playing at with all the awkward movements. Smh dont tell me this is gonna be one of those nobody wants the league seasons.....cos when that happens atleti finds a way to creep in

[Mamad]

We are basically at Barca's level at the moment. the only difference is Benzema's goals.

[RealGunner]

Thoughts on Rayo Vallecano this season?

[Hapless_Hans]

Did I hear right that Falcao, Angel of Clubs not in the CL, is playing for them now?

[RealGunner]

Indeed. With 3 goals in 4 games.

Legendary reaction man.

Who was the idiot manager taking him off at 0-0?

[Hapless_Hans]

Barca being gifted a penalty yet @harmonica is not there to see it

Ranieri.

[halamadrid2]

Koeman and press conferences

The guy criticises his players and Club on an almost weekly basis

[halamadrid2]

Sanchez Martinez will be the referee and Gonzalez Gonzalez will in the VAR room

I swear LaLiga do this by purpose just to cause a stir

[Myesyats]

I mean... it's not like he is some tactical mastermind and the players are not smart enough to keep up with him. In reality there is little to none gameplan and the players are improvising most of the time. Then he gets mad they keep passing around without purpose or when Luuk misses easy chances who is a player he requested himself only because he's dutch

I can imagine than in his head, Koeman thinks he's MUCH better than he really is, the problem is he has nothing to back that up with.

[halamadrid2]

I am surprised the players haven't quit on him yet. I think they all are all playing for pride now with the Camp Nou on everyones backs after what's come out about them in the press this season

I don't look forward to this game at all Hope for a draw, RM is not Bayern but they always step it up vs us nowadays knowing that we can be hurt quite easily.

[halamadrid2]

Not sure about this one

Lucas will be the RB and he's been terrible defensively this season. Next to him there is Militao who has this weird habit of falling over everytime he runs. Don't fancy Lucas against Ansu at all. So we will no doubt be conceding this game

Benz and Vini are in good form so we might get a goal or two. I think if Barca double mark Vini then he'll effectively be out of the game because Mendy isn't very good offensively.

On the other side Rodrygo might play who can no doubt get a goal if given a chance but can also go 90 mins without being seen or heard of. If Valverde plays then you are effectively playing a CM as a winger which isn't good for him or us

I think Messi not being there to hog the ball will work against us more than Barca as Casemiro was easily taking thr ball off him starting counters. Barca play alot more random now which could work for them.

Wonder if Dest or Mingueza will face Vini. Dest can match Vini for pace but Mingueza did really well to hold his own last time they met

Pigue + Garcia doe Benz needs to be ashamed of himself if he can't score against that lot

[BarcaLearning]

Dont worry Hala, Koeman could start Roberto for all we know lol, who is fking 1000 times worst than Lucas. We got no cutting edge up front except from maybe Fati but he tends to try to do it all on his own, n Alba, thats about it. If u dont win this classico u guys should be shamed

[Doc]

Thoughts on Rayo Vallecano this season?

Going to be honest, I know they were winning but I didn't notice they were that high in the standings including beating Athletic in the Lion's Den.

Their even coached by Iraola, I remember him being a pretty decent RB with Athletic too.

[Mamad]

Kroos-Casemiro-Modric
has played 12 classico's together. lost only 3.

[Arquitecto]

Cant remember the last time two Basque teams were top 2 in the current Liga table.

[The Demon of Carthage]

I mean no disrespect to Barça, but considering how weakened they have become, Madrid are in no-excuse territory.

Anything but a win is unacceptable, especially after the humiliating defeat to Sheriff.
