It hurts me to say even more than it makes you sick to read.
We lost the battle, and the war folks!

As of now, and the way the team is shaping, La Liga is the only trophy we can look up to, and even that is not guaranteed. With a defense like that, our team is not cut for the knock out tournaments. Let's face it, folks, the champions league is too hot for us. We did not deserve to win tonight.

I do not expect us to compete with big guns like chelsea, united, and even Milan and City.

Sorry, but that's the truth, plain and simple.

Even if we did compete with all of them, its still nothing special and only expected.

Gents, lady,

We lost our first game this season. How many more we will lose you think?

all of them i think. we need to sign terry in defense and make him captain, drogba aswell, benzema isnt good

I think you guys should sign vidic and Thiago Silva/Hummels

So we lost the battle before that season begins. good good.

What nick said

*Looks @ thread title and OP*

We need DRENTHE!!!!!!

$55m swoop for Puyol is the only option.

All replies, including mine will not change the fact that as of now, we are treading on thin ice.

As of now, we lost a battle, but if we project the outcome into the future, we will lose the war. That's a given fact.

Mourinho will shuffle his cards and make the necessary tweakings with what he has.

But we have touched the limit of many of our players; a point where they cant improve more. Some players have limited abilities including physical ones. Marcelo is one. Marcelo will never improve defensively. As much as i hate to say it, he doesnt hold a bright future in madrid, and we will suffer if we entrust the LB position to him.

Iker is another player who has reached his physical limits. Iker can improve by working on his mental issues, and lack of confidence but the problem with that is that he needs help. He cant do it by himself.

shall we sell everyone and reboot?

alot of the things huntsman says are to the core sometimes semi realistic. his latest post kind of implying that our squad is not good enough i do not agree with though.

i agree with the iker thing 100 percent.

i dont know if huntsman mixes both absurdity plus genius together and comes out like he does, but huntsman i give you the pat in the back for being able to fck with some peoples mind all of the time.

Huntsman,

if you were manager what would you do?

I thought we were signing Terry, making Pepe captain and signing Falcao?

I also have huntsman on ignore so I really don't know what he wrote. Could imagine it to be shit...

I never liked hoofball terry, would never sign him.

One thing I want to comment about today that nobody mentioned, did you guys notice how busquets wasnt really effective?

Also whats the status on xavi and puyol? How much of their season do you think they will play?

Xavi is still the supreme lynchpin of that side I suspect he'll continue getting a good amount of games with Fab slowly being introduced into the team's formation and philosophy. Puyol, think his days are kinda numbered honestly.

As for Busky, I would gladly admit I think he is a good player but I also think he's very limited to what he can really do. And considering Real have been way more physical, what else can he do but dive or pass the ball off?!

Can't we just ban the obvious troll already, seriously....

The problem is how we lost... There are times you feel the lost is ok cause we did great.

Stop changing tactics. Left back!! Left back!!! Oh di maria.....
