Essential The Official Football (Soccer) Thread - The Slotification of Liverpool is nearly complete

All because of that one fukking push. fukking Naldo

Lol, people will use that. But there is more to it IMO. a) it was Real being cheapskates and not replacing Morata with a proper replacement, Borja I don't think he's ready yet, tbh and there's rumblings that C dot doesn't fancy him as a player and he maybe off b) But rumours say, Perez wanted Mbappe, he asked Ramos and C dot and they told him No, because it would cause disharmony in the squad paying a 18 y/o 6m a year. c) The team while good, I think they're stuck between serving 2 masters. C dot and when he isn't playing. Even thou he is still the X factor that decides where they will finish up this season.

Also read that Dani Ceballos is pissed he didn't get no time last night vs Betis and hardly any minutes this season. Apparently Zidane didn't want him this year, but Perez did, to stop Barca from signing him. Which I think is BS because if you know anything about Dani he is very anti Barca and Pro Franco in his comments.

The long and short is, it's Real Madrid the fukkery that keeps on giving.

It's been known that Neymar is a bytch when it comes to confrontation. He's had coach's fired before because he didn't like them. He didn't pull that shyt at Barca cause he wasn't the #1 guy there. Now he's head honcho and he's back at it. Smh great player but dude is a straight up female when it comes down to it.

that's his dumbass fault

Barca was probably offering him a starting position on a platter but he chose Madrid instead where they already have a string of back up cms. But he chose pride instead.

I had Bible Study last night, so I didn't get to watch it. I had it DVRed, but I got a bunch of texts after the game that spoiled the result so I didn't even want to watch it when I got home. The part that hurts the most is as I was leaving the house I told myself "I could skip Bible Study and watch this game, but there's no way we're losing ."


Our whole season is down the drain because of Aliexpress Barcelona. I'm still trying to process this

And also the fact that when the ball is in the final third NO ONE has any creativity. And without Ronaldo there the pressure was on Bale and he isn't a pressure player...now matters are worse with Marcelo out with a torn hamstring.
At Betis, it was clear that not only is morale low, the team is out of ideas. They'll have to beat Barca twice to even THINK of wining La Liga...Even worse, Ronaldo's going to be over playing to try and catch Messi on goals (cuz he's petty like that) that's not a good thing. They just better hope the toxicity of the domestic season doesn't trickle into Europe.

PSG will perpetually find a way to shyt their own bed. Its still early and they'll go deep into UCL, but Cavani is gone after this season I'm willing to bet money. This is Neymar's team now.

Even with Real having Kroos, Modric & Isco in midfield, the team at its core is still a counter attack first team.

But that's the problem...you saw a multitude of goals from Barca the last couple weeks. Set pieces, counter-attack, possession, etc. Inesta musta drank some virgins blood or something. Messi put the team on his back. Paulinho is looking worth every cent of his fee. Deolufeu has become a much more mature player and is making better decisions with the ball.

It looks like a "sum is greater than the value of its parts" type of side. Which is Barca's MO outside of Messi's brilliance. Madrid looks lost without Ronaldo and now without Marcelo the transition game is severely hampered.

I wouldn't start crowning Paulinho as a good buy just yet, they goals vs Getafe & Eibar. Deulofeu is probably being ordered to release the ball earlier, also he is the only attacking player they have available who can stretch the play. He still goes down blind alleys and inconsistent and I don't think his end product has improved that quickly from the player who I saw at Milan for the 2nd half of last season, lets see how both do when they play against proper teams.

Marcelo will be a loss, but as long they have him back for the CL last 16, they will be ok. They bought Theo Hernandez for a reason, so its time for him to show the Alaves form of last season.

Madrid won 8 games in the last 5 minutes last season. You can contribute some of that to luck and another part to strategy. They used to drain teams of energy and then rush them with the quality bench players they had. Selling Morata Danilio James etc was a crucial mistake as their bench is literally what set them apart from other top teams.

Nothing can be as treacherous as football. Preseason all odds were against Barca and Paulinho was a laughing stock to barca fans and outsiders. But we forget how special Messi is until times like this and Paulinho is becoming more of a hero with each game.
Lets not forget about Semedo tho. The guy is a beast in attack and defence.
