[pure bridge]

Maurico Pochettino for Real Madrid coach?

[storm quest]

No

[slender olive]

Obviously he's a wet sack of shit, but I don't think he's going to let the club get relegated like that

[still pagoda]

He can't even win ligue 1 with psg why tf will he come to Madrid

[grave glen]

Both real and Chelsea are better off with hazard returning

[pure bridge]

He will come to make real relegated!

[arctic geyser]

they will not

[arctic geyser]

Granada 1-2 Real Madrid

[grave glen]

It's going to be tough but their attack can come in clutch

[slender olive]

Granada 0-1 Madrid imo

Benzema saving them again after a bad performance

Don’t care about the score, just hope we score more than Granada

And win

[arctic geyser]

Ok

[storm quest]

[slender olive]

would you care if it was 10-11, Modric, Kroos, Casemiro and Hazard got injured

Mental health?????

[grave glen]

Yeah it deteriorates with each barcelona matchday

[arctic geyser]

wtf

[grave glen]

😭

[grim thicket]

guys, what are your thoughts on miguel starting today in place of marcelo and mendy?

i think he had rlly impressed in the limited minutes he had played

and kinda reminds of reguilon

im looking forward to it ngl

[inland hound]

Mendy is out for the season

Marcelo had disagreement with zidane as per Goalspain

[grim thicket]

out for 3 games....but yeah the season is 3 more games lol

i think this is a rlly good chance for miguel gutierrez to show his quality

[inland hound]

We have to win these games

if no result

[grim thicket]

he is a very good crosser, and a better ball carrier than mendy imo.....altho his defensive work isnt as good as mendy ofc

at this point id say, he is def better than marcelo is

[inland hound]

any defender can show this in a game

[grim thicket]

well, marcelo doesnt....

[inland hound]

But his crossing is spectacular

[grim thicket]

and quality of crosses matter a lot, especially the way we play

[inland hound]

We just cross n play rn

idk y

[grim thicket]

well, whatever works

and it has been working for us 🤷‍♂️

[inland hound]

Ye but not always will

[grim thicket]

we have been amazing from set pieces this season

[inland hound]

Ye but still we need our wingers to to cut in n create chances

[grim thicket]

last 3 games im rlly optimistic for miguel, he could become the next reguilon, and be a suitable backup for mendy in the future

[inland hound]

So alaba will start as LCB

[grim thicket]

and we wont have to trigger the buy back clause on reguilon for 40m(?) if miguel works out well

[inland hound]

Ye we have alaba

[grim thicket]

yeah in place of ramos im guessing, altho i would rather prefer nacho and militao

alaba is terrible as a defender

[inland hound]

He is way better at the ball than any1 else

That wat happened vs chelsea

[grim thicket]

yes but he is absolutely terrible as a defender, and defence has been our strong suit the past couple seasons

i would say its another signing we are gonna regret in the coming years

[inland hound]

Not terrible lmao

i have seen some games he is okay

[grim thicket]

he is, he is not good with headers, he isnt good with his positioning

and he isnt as pacy as he used to be in recovery and transition

[inland hound]

He is good aerial wdym

[grim thicket]

but yeah, he is good on the ball

[inland hound]

Thats wat we need primarily

if Ramos leaves

[grim thicket]

take into consideration that you are pinning your hopes on him replacing Ramos and Varane who are probably some of the best aerial players rn

[grim thicket]

kroos has been doing the job of dropping deep and progressing the ball quite well in ramos' absence this season

[inland hound]

mili is doing great so is others

[grim thicket]

so i dont think thats wht we primarily need

we need defensive solidity

[grim thicket]

yes, thats why im saying, militao an nacho should start, not alaba

[inland hound]

Ye so we need alaba

[grim thicket]

[inland hound]

kroos is dropping so we are short in the middle

[grim thicket]

we did exceptionally well with kroos and modric dropping deep, why would we need alaba(who's wages def dont justify his talent btw)....the main issue i have with him is the amount of wages we are giving him compared to the output we expect from him

[inland hound]

No defenders are doing great with the ball

rn

[grim thicket]

for a decent long passer (i say decent, not great) i would expect much lower wages....especially since he wont be doing much more

and will possibly be a liability on defence

[inland hound]

if we are talking about wages we need to talk about most of our players

[inland hound]

he provides depth

[grim thicket]

no, we need just talk about hazard, bale, and alaba soon

[inland hound]

Can play LB ,CB ,CDM

[grim thicket]

yes...but a squad player for that much wages? idk....and he isnt that good as a CDM either while playing for austria

[grim thicket]

and his best position is at LB, and id say rn, Mendy is better than him in there

[inland hound]

we dont have Backup for Case

[grim thicket]

we do, antonio blanco

[inland hound]

Alaba can play CDM

[grim thicket]

he has been great too

[grave glen]

Do y’all think Cholo will continue next season?

[grim thicket]

we need to trust our academy youngsters a bit, especially players as talented as blanco and miguel

[inland hound]

Blanco is great with the ball but his defensive ability

[grim thicket]

instead of spending a shit ton on players like alaba

[inland hound]

We have kroos already playmaking

[grim thicket]

the same can be said about alaba too lmao

[inland hound]

Alaba is way better defensively than Blanco

[grim thicket]

we could have been saving that wage budget for an attacking winger

mate

blanco is 20 years old

alaba is what? 29?

[inland hound]

Ye

[grim thicket]

he has a lot of time to grow into his capabilities and he is alrdy quite good

[grave glen]

Did you give Theo Hernandez on loan or sell him?

[grim thicket]

he needs more trust and game time

[inland hound]

He had a few exellent games doesnt mean we can expect from him every game

[grim thicket]

sold

[grave glen]

Oop

[inland hound]

We need experiece players for UCL

[grim thicket]

ofc not, but we could be saving up those huge wages for what we actually need, a scorer thats not named benzema

[inland hound]

1st we get rid of players who are washed

[grim thicket]

overreliance on benzema is gonna eventually cost us

[grave glen]

Madrid-Barca convos in la liga 🥱

[grim thicket]

lets talk about villarreal

[grave glen]

Alright

[grim thicket]

what do you think they gonna win the UEL?

i believe they can

[grave glen]

They played terrible last time

[inland hound]

Bale out will save 30 M

[grave glen]

I think they can

Spanish teams are always good in EL

[grim thicket]

who's gonna buy him? his agent has advised him to benchwarm and get the stacks

[inland hound]

he wont stay

For sure

[grim thicket]

they got a quality squad, altho i was quite surprised emery hasnt used estupinan as much as i wouldve liked to see him

estupinan is super versatile, and quite skillful too

[grim thicket]

mutual termination is the only other option, and thats a slippery slope...

nobody is gonna buy bale or hazard

[inland hound]

He wont play under zidane and the Fans hate him

[grave glen]

I havent seen estupinan

[inland hound]

so he is going

[grave glen]

I prefer pedraza

[grim thicket]

only player on the market for us that's gonna yield any value is varane imo

rest are shit

[grave glen]

Or is pedraza rb?

[grim thicket]

estupinan can play as a CM too...thats why i said he is so versatile

ofc pedraza is better of a LB than him

[inland hound]

Spurs can get bale

He is Shining there rn

[grim thicket]

remember spurs are currently playing bale on half of what his actual contract is worth....we are paying the other half....and if they want to pay his full contract, thats more than what they pay harry kane and son

wouldnt be a smart business decision for spurs to buy bale unless he is willing to take a wage cut

[inland hound]

He doing his best ever over there

Deffo would accept a cut

[grim thicket]

still, not worth 650k pw

if he does, then good

but last i checked he wasnt willing to

[inland hound]

ig Fab confirmed he wont return at madrid

[grim thicket]

another headache is gonna be offloading hazard

[inland hound]

lol

[grim thicket]

i think i read a tweet recently that his agent wanted him to stay and benchwarm at madrid, and get the money

wait lemme see if i can find it

[inland hound]

no i remember he wont return

[grim thicket]

oh the article was by goal.com

[inland hound]

Goal is shite

[grave glen]

I hope simeone stays next season

Why not just do a ferguson/wenger career

[grim thicket]

where would simeone leave to?

he is the highest paid manager rn

why would he leave?

[inland hound]

[inland hound]

Win la liga then deffo would stay

[grim thicket]

man gets paid more than pep

[inland hound]

Matchday hope we win

[grave glen]

I think the only club he would leave Atleti is Inter, not any other club

But I hope he stays forever

in Atleti

Why Inter?

Simeone will go to a club where he can have his mentality put to test

doesn’t matter if he played there or not

Idk honestly but i can only think of Inter when he will leave Atleti

well he’s perfect for serie a for sure

maybe juve 😂

As long as conte has inter i dont see them changing

[grave glen]

never.

[grave glen]

yeah

I feel like simeone will choose a team that is great but not top class for his next project

Like Napoli, Lazio etc

i dont think he likes the elite clubs

[zealous flower]

He'll probably join inter

[grave glen]

nah

[zealous flower]

Bc he used to play for them

[grave glen]

irrelevant tbh

he’s more likely to coach lazio then inter

[grim thicket]

yknow what...i wouldnt mind if somebody like allegri or simeone managed madrid tbh....gone are the days of our financial monopoly when we could just look at a player and they would say yes, defensive solidity is somehting that we might be needing in the long run

[wooden sail]

Spurs

[pure flax]

Atletico are winning the league

[winged phoenix]

sadly yes

[arctic geyser]

Not yet

[mellow light]

I’m praying real or Atletico win

Maybe Sevilla

Just pls not barca

[grave glen]

Sevilla is out mathematically

[grave glen]

Y not lmao

[mellow light]

Because Messi fanboys

[grave glen]

What are they gonna do?? Hunt u down?

[mellow light]

No they will say Messi is better

[grave glen]

Then who??

[winged phoenix]

so what
rubentus fans called ronaldo the goat when he scored a goal vs sassuolo

[grave glen]

RAKITIC GOATED

[winged phoenix]

UMTITI GOATED

😎

imagine not supporting barca cuz of umtiti

[grave glen]

I was serious tho

[winged phoenix]

ah i c

had a shit last szn at barca

but a very class player

[grave glen]

Yup last season wasn't good but I like him a lot

[mellow light]

Ronaldo 😔

[winged phoenix]

so it is fine if ronaldo fans call him the goat

but it isn't when messi fans call messi the goat

logik

[grave glen]

Mans got jokes

[grave glen]

So it’s okay for u when people say Ronaldo is the goat, but when people say Messi is the goat it’s not okay??

I can call u a Ronaldo fanboy

[alpine socket]

funny

[mellow light]

Nah I’m a Ronaldo fan but I don’t put down Messi

Some people legit call him a fraud

[arctic geyser]

Messi=Ronaldo

[alpine socket]

Don't lie. Everyone knows that's not possible

[grave glen]

Messi and Ronaldo are besties We fans made them rivals Let's not compare the two Goat's 😁 Btw Atletico about to win league after 7 years if they win at osasuna

[keen gorge]

RM have to drop points today for this to happen

[grave glen]

XD lol

Anyone from top 4 can win league tho

But

[keen gorge]

Sevilla are out with H2H

[grave glen]

If villareal wins europa league

Will there be 5 spanish teams in ucl?

[keen gorge]

Yes there will be

Happened before when Sevilla won the Europa League and they were outside top 4

[grave glen]

Ah Hope that happens again

sevilla has most UEL titles right?

[keen gorge]

Yes with 6 titles

[grave glen]

They gonna exit from group stage That way they get silverware and more revenue

[grave glen]

Woah Pog

It feels so satisfying when a underdog team wins cup or league

[keen gorge]

The round of 16 in the UCL has better prize money than UEL champions

[grave glen]

Lol

[stiff fjord]

facts same

but I hate both

I like cr7 for the NT

but for the club he plays

Idk about the other games

Rakitic wasnt doing so bad was he?

[inland hound]

wat trophies ? we prolly wont win anythin this season

[thin ivy]

[inland hound]

Marca

[potent spade]

😂

I mean I think they are right though

I can't imagine him going anywhere else

[alpine socket]

Depay to barca?

[inland hound]

yea Depay prolly come barca

[alpine socket]

[opal sigil]

Depay will only be here if koeman is also here

[inland hound]

?

[potent spade]

the only top club Depay could succeed at is Barca I think

he would probably flop again if he went to premier league

[inland hound]

Under koeman yes

[potent spade]

yeah

he was great at the national squad under Koeman

[inland hound]

ye

[potent spade]

if he plays like that for Barca then they can be very happy with that transfer

cause he will cost 0

[inland hound]

oh free then nice

[potent spade]

plus he's been nominated for best player in ligue 1 of the year

together with mbappe and neymar

and he's... free

barca would be crazy to pass on that opportunity tbh

[inland hound]

if koeman doesnt get sacked yes

[potent spade]

they need all the cheap/free players they can get right now

even if koeman gets sacked

he's probably the best transfer free player around

and we all know barca has fucked it with their finances

[inland hound]

under koeman he plays the best

In the prem he flopped

Lyon he did well

[potent spade]

in ligue 1 he's one of the best players though but well people will say its a weak league lol

I think he flopped in the prem because he was still young and not serious enough

he thought he already made it

[inland hound]

hes entering his prime

so yeah

[opal sigil]

But the real question is if hes a 9

Which is what we need

[potent spade]

he is

thats exactly what he is

[inland hound]

he is not a pure 9

[opal sigil]

He can try to be a 9 but he isnt a true one

[inland hound]

he is CAM ryt

[potent spade]

...

bruh

[opal sigil]

Smtm like that

[potent spade]

no

[inland hound]

Grizzie plays 9?

[opal sigil]

No

[potent spade]

Depay literally never plays CAM

[opal sigil]

His playing style tho

[inland hound]

CF

[opal sigil]

Is like a cam

[potent spade]

no it isnt

[opal sigil]

..

[potent spade]

where he was the most successful with Koeman

was when he was a CF

that's where he's at his best imo

[inland hound]

he can play wing too

[potent spade]

he plays as a winger sometimes but he isn't that good anymore recently

on the wing

[inland hound]

Then wat will grizi play?

[potent spade]

he's pretty good when Lyon play with a 2 striker system

he can also be good on the wing at lyon

but at netherlands hes just shit on the wing

[inland hound]

[potent spade]

too much ego

Depay could play with Griezmann up front maybe

and Messi on cam or something idk

wouldn't be surprised if that's what koeman has in mind

he was at his best at NL when he was on the CF position tho, on his own, in a 433

[opal sigil]

That would never work

3 creative players playing uptop

Without a true 9

[potent spade]

why wouldnt it work

[opal sigil]

Like haaland

[potent spade]

you dont have to play with a true 9 theres a lot of teams that dont

Liverpool dominated everyone without a true 9

[opal sigil]

City? They have a good defense to keep them solid, barca don't so they can get exposed alot

[potent spade]

Yeah but that doesn't have anything to do with the attack though. That just means Barcelona should have invested more in the defence lol.

[opal sigil]

We dont even have a solid dm to keep the team solid in transitions from counterattacks

[potent spade]

I would say de Jong is a pretty solid dm

but well koeman plays busquets there now

[opal sigil]

Lol nah, de jong isn't a dm

[potent spade]

....

..................

[opal sigil]

A solid dm is like kante

De jong is more attacking

[potent spade]

what

the

fuck

[opal sigil]

Wut?

[potent spade]

De Jong is originally a center back btw

[opal sigil]

But is he great at those positions tho

[inland hound]

Kante isnt a DM now

[opal sigil]

Like a true cb

Or a true dm

[potent spade]

Barcelona play him in a more attacking role but his first year at Ajax he was a CB, and the year after that a DM. And then he went to Barca.

[opal sigil]

Wym

[potent spade]

yeah for sure he is

have you seen his sliding tackles

[inland hound]

he plays front rn under Tuchel i.e attacks now

[opal sigil]

De jong isnt a solid dm as a real dm would be. Like marquinhos, win back the ball, body players off the ball but he is great for making runs, attacking positioning etc

[potent spade]

he's probably better at DM now than he is at CB but he is pretty good there

bruh

what have barcelona done to de jong lol

he won possession back so often when he was at ajax

playing dm

he never made runs, he was the one that passed the ball to the player that was making the run

and he was great at it

[opal sigil]

Hmm, Seems like he has a different role now then

Maybe cause busi is our dm rn

[potent spade]

probably, but according to most barcelona fans busquets is shit

so maybe they should consider putting de jong back where he belongs

[opal sigil]

Hes very slow

[opal sigil]

Maybe but personally I think de jong is great in the role he has now

[potent spade]

damn

I mean

evidently he is just an amazing player then

[opal sigil]

We just need another dm to replace busi

[opal sigil]

🤣 ig, too versatile

Usually when he plays cb tho he's uptop alot

Supporting attackers ig

[potent spade]

yeah he hasn't played CB before barcelona

the last time he did that was his first season at ajax

so its been a while ago

like at least 2 years of not playing CB

[opal sigil]

So he was just dm at ajax?

[potent spade]

no he was a CB his first season, I worded it wrong, I meant he hasn't played it for a long time

then the second season at ajax they turned him into a DM

and then they made their champions league run

[opal sigil]

Ah

Dude can play anywhere then

Prefer him attacking tho

[potent spade]

I think he's at his best at DM though. But like in a different system to what barcelona is playing.

It doesn't work with Busquets there.

[opal sigil]

Yh

[potent spade]

At ajax there was 2 CDM and 1 attacking midfielder

but the CDM on the right side next to de Jong was a box to box midfielder

and de Jong was more a deep playmaker/defensive midfielder

[opal sigil]

Hmm, busi is the deep player for us rn

[potent spade]

yeah

thats why it wouldnt work

at Ajax he played next to Schöne he was the box to box

isn't Busquets kinda finished though

Maybe they could use de Jong as a deep playmaker again and play Pedri as an 8.

they just need better defenders tbh

[potent spade]

Piquet, Lenglet, Mingueza, Araujo they're not good enough tbh.

[grave glen]

Araujo and mingueza need time
Pique has declined
Lenglet cannot perform without a dominant partner

And let's not talk about umtiti

[grim thicket]

....why is marvin starting

miguel was kinda obvious since he is the only LB on the squad

[grave glen]

i thought courtois was injured

[strong forum]

[storm quest]

Thought blanco would start

[grim thicket]

same

no idea why marvin is starting

apparently marvin is the RB

has he ever played RB?

[inland hound]

Why is Kroos out?

[grim thicket]

possibly resting

[inland hound]

Blanco?

[grim thicket]

i have no clue

[inland hound]

No kroos then we have start Blanco

[grim thicket]

i was expecting blanco and miguel to start today

[inland hound]

wat does marvin play?

[grim thicket]

he is playing RB apparently....according to Fotmob

but he is a right winger generally

[inland hound]

so fede will cover em up?

[grim thicket]

probably

i was expecting odriozola to start tho

he wasnt too bad against sevilla imo

[inland hound]

Blanco sud have started

imo

[grim thicket]

yeah

midfield is case, modric, fede

modric will prolly play in the kroos role

[inland hound]

will he do longs?

[grim thicket]

he is good with passes yeah

he is the best among the 3

[inland hound]

i never seen him going long

lol

[grim thicket]

we are probably gonna see some tactical changes ig

coz this lineup looks rlly weird

i wouldve expected fede to start over modric, not kroos

also with neither of kroos or asensio starting, who is gonna be taking set pieces?

[inland hound]

ye its wierd

[grim thicket]

its overall just very weird

[inland hound]

☠️

[grim thicket]

the rodrygo vini duo hasnt worked well in the past....lets see what surprises they pull off today

my first choice wouldve been rodrygo asensio

[solemn rain]

Ascensio a beast Idk why he’s not a starter 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

[grim thicket]

nah

i wouldve wanted asensio and one of rodrygo or vini

since kroos is out

oof marvin

nice chance there

i would be much more comfortable with odriozola playing than marvin tbh

bruh rodrygo nutmegged himself

[unkempt dew]

What is Sevilla-Atleti H2H this season?

Wait

Are Sevilla disqualified from the title race?

[keen gorge]

Atleti 2-0 Sevilla

[grave glen]

Bruh what was the Granada keeper thinking 😭

[covert monolith]

thinking of how to win madrid the league

[plain elbow]

[solemn rain]

Granada is a pathetic team

Hope the bed up in second division

[grim thicket]

they still stream copa libertadores

[plain elbow]

can’t wait to have to fucking listen to ppl like alejandro moreno and sebastian salazar commentate la liga matches lol.

[grim thicket]

dont be salty granada are great, they just had a bad day

[plain elbow]

it’s gonna be painful

[grim thicket]

and well, we had a near perfect game

[covert monolith]

hopefully ray hudson leaves

he brings a great atmosphere

[grim thicket]

ohh yes i fuckin hate ale moreno and that gang

[covert monolith]

not the greatest commentator otherwise but still interesting

[solemn rain]

😂😂😂

[covert monolith]

and craig burley

[plain elbow]

bein sports usa hasn’t been the same since jose hernandez and jorge ottati left.

[grim thicket]

yesss

[keen gorge]

They were only good against barca the second half

[solemn rain]

Commentators are ass

Boring af

[keen gorge]

Otherwise lost 6-1 against us

[grim thicket]

cmon they have been good throughout the season, they beat napoli ffs

[keen gorge]

But in La Liga were thrashed by all the top teams

[grim thicket]

before the match: granada are a tough fixture
after the match: granada shit team should be in segunda

like cmon

[solemn rain]

The only team I see giving Real Madrid a headache is villareal

[covert monolith]

lmao

[grim thicket]

we had a near perfect game today

[covert monolith]

chelsea?

[grim thicket]

give some credit to the players

[plain elbow]

i’ve been listening to schoen and hudson for more than a decade and half now, it’ll be a bit sad to listen to some new commentators.

[keen gorge]

I think they lost 4 to barca as well

[covert monolith]

lol ive nvr act put in the effort to know his name is schoen

he rly compliments hudson well tho

[keen gorge]

Ngl RM played a good game today

[solemn rain]

Granada is a second division team barely playing in 1st division

[grim thicket]

i am so impressed by miguel

[keen gorge]

Not really

[grim thicket]

now we dont need to worry about playing marcelo and his defensive liabilities

[stiff fjord]

how

[solemn rain]

Villareal will beat RM I called it

[stiff fjord]

barcelona lost to them

[covert monolith]

maybe they might get phil bonney to do la liga games

[grim thicket]

lmao do you even watch football?

[covert monolith]

hes rly good for bundesliga on espn

[keen gorge]

They just don't have the right tactics to defend big teams

[storm quest]

Granada played poorly today

[solemn rain]

Granada forward had 3 clear stances of goal and he choked

[keen gorge]

Villareal have the UEL final three days later so I doubt they will care

[grim thicket]

im waiting for him to come in and say "villarreal trash team segunda quality haha" after that match too

[kind crescent]

does sevilla has a good h2h record if they somehow tied the points with atletico

[grim thicket]

no they dont

[stiff fjord]

they are out of the race

[kind crescent]

ok sevilla gone

[grim thicket]

they are out

[kind crescent]

[storm quest]

Yea Sevilla out thank God

[solemn rain]

Villareal has to win or else they lose their chance to qualify for Europa league 😅

[grim thicket]

now its back to being a 3 horse race

[storm quest]

If they win Europa league, they play champions league

[kind crescent]

imagine they qualify for CL instead lool

https://tenor.com/view/unaiemeryape-ymu-maga-gif-18404716

[grim thicket]

not if they win the UEL and qualify for the champions league

[storm quest]

That is more important to them

[grim thicket]

id say UCL is more important

[storm quest]

And that is obvious

[grim thicket]

but yeah, villarreal arent to be taken lightly

[stiff fjord]

If they win UEL
Sevilla wont qualify for ucl

[solemn rain]

Who’sR. Madrid playing next?

[storm quest]

Lol

[grim thicket]

we barely edged past them in the last game

in fact we drew 1-1

[storm quest]

Athletic Bilbao

[grim thicket]

bilbao at san mames

[keen gorge]

No five teams will qualify

[storm quest]

At San mames

[stiff fjord]

5?

[grim thicket]

yes

[stiff fjord]

Damn

[solemn rain]

Atletic Bilbao will beat Madrid I call it

[grim thicket]

lmao

this guy

i cant

[grave glen]

¿

[storm quest]

I mean there is a big chance that will happen tbf

Wonder if Gutierrez will start ahead of Marcelo on Sunday

[grim thicket]

i hope he does

he is better defensively

and he is not too shabby in the attacking phase either

and he got rlly good crossing ability

[storm quest]

He played very well all though there wasn’t much threat on him

[grim thicket]

he dealt with whatever threat came at him yes

[storm quest]

And that is still good

[solemn rain]

Barça has two games to win and they need RM to lose 1 match out of the 2 they have left. They also need atlhetico Madrid to to either lose 2 games or draw 1 and lose 1.

[storm quest]

I doubt atlético will drop points twice so I think Barca are out of the race

[solemn rain]

Barça is out of the race IMO

Barça doesn’t deserve bella liga they been playing like ass lately

[storm quest]

Atlético has it easier than us

[grim thicket]

atleti have too bottom feeder clubs

i doubt they will drop points

[storm quest]

Osasuna and Valladolid. I don’t think they’ll drop points sadly

[grim thicket]

but here's to hoping

[solemn rain]

Atletico Madrid champions! Congrats to any Atletico fans you guys deserve it

[grim thicket]

we bottled that sevilla game 😔

[storm quest]

Yea that was unfortunate

Very very unfortunate

Especially with that pen

Lol

[solemn rain]

Atletico champions 🎉🎉🙌🥳🎊

[storm quest]

Oh well

[solemn rain]

Gotta admit RM with so many injured players played way bette than shitty Barça

[grim thicket]

yeah no point crying over that, whats done is done

[opal sigil]

Next matchday barca can be out the race

[grim thicket]

who do barca play next?

[solemn rain]

IMO Barça needs to get rid of dembele, Griezman, Dejon

[grim thicket]

de jong?

bruh

he has been one of their best players

[solemn rain]

Dejon doesn’t do shit

[opal sigil]

Celta

[solemn rain]

He doesn’t generate dangerous plays everyone just tries to pass the ball to messi

[storm quest]

They receive celta

[inland hound]

Robbed

[opal sigil]

Cant even spell his name🤣

[storm quest]

No need to mention rob. It’s whatever now

[grim thicket]

meh no point ranting over that penalty call

whats done is done

[solemn rain]

Barça is so dependent on messi and busquets. The only two golden players from Barca’s dream team

[opal sigil]

Busquets...

[stiff fjord]

Bisquets

[opal sigil]

Lol

This man dont watch barca

[stiff fjord]

oriol busquets clear

[grim thicket]

[storm quest]

Yea but when you’re trolly it’s just dumb

[solemn rain]

If messi leaves he will collapse the team. Barça ain’t shit without him

[grave glen]

He’s trolling

Busquets has not been good in a long time

[stiff fjord]

[storm quest]

If Messi goes to psg will you support psg?

[grim thicket]

lol

[stiff fjord]

[opal sigil]

[solemn rain]

If messi goes to Real Madrid I would support Madrid

[solemn rain]

We are here to analyze soccer not to fight c’mon fellas

[grave glen]

Why the hell do u have villareal then 😂

[stiff fjord]

and i like spanish teams that arent barca

[grave glen]

• we talked about em yesterday i think tf

[grim thicket]

[opal sigil]

I'm a villareal fan till europa final finished

[grim thicket]

@wintry obsidian is

[grim thicket]

[solemn rain]

Villareal or Atletic Bilbao will beat RM

[grim thicket]

there you go, somebody gets me

[grave glen]

Doesnt matter rly

[stiff fjord]

Villarreal play real before the europa final

[grave glen]

Atletico madrid has to win their matches

And they will

Real sociedad was the last big game

[grim thicket]

ok just remove that game lol

[grave glen]

Now its just necessary for them to focus

[opal sigil]

[grave glen]

And do their job

[solemn rain]

Let’s talk champions league final

[grim thicket]

yeah osasuna and vallodolid arent rlly threats

[solemn rain]

Who takes it??

[grave glen]

Apparently we have to pay 8M if we come in 3rd place why do we have to pay for everything

[opal sigil]

Lol dude theres #football-lobby

[grave glen]

[storm quest]

This is la liga channel

[grim thicket]

i dont see any spanish teams in the UCL final, so thats not an appropriate discussion for here

smh chelsea, you ruined it for this guy

[grave glen]

Probably bartomeu getting fucked like usual

Man city is the biggest Spanish team itw

[grim thicket]

lol

[grave glen]

Bartomeu be signing all kinds of papers and contracts and then be like huh we gotta pay 8 m

[pure flax]

Atletico or Real to win la liga?

[grim thicket]

atletico probs

[grave glen]

Bartomeu: “I did a funny”

[grave glen]

Huesca

[grim thicket]

they got osasuna and vallodolid

both bottom feeder clubs

[solemn rain]

I think a super league for only big teams was actually a good idea

[grim thicket]

it was yes

[pure flax]

I reckon eibar

[grave glen]

Yep, best idea

[grim thicket]

the more important question

who do y'all think are gonna survive

now that we know espanyol are back

[grim thicket]

and so are almeria i think right?

[pure flax]

EspanLOL

[opal sigil]

Atleti has the easier games

[grave glen]

@grave glen @grim thicket why y’all like the idea of super league

[solemn rain]

The downfall of Barça was getting rid of lucho suarez he’s such a beast

[grave glen]

It’s because it’s so trash that’s why I like it

okok i get it y’all moving on from thw troll nvm

[pure flax]

No the downfall of Barcelona was keeping all the old players and not getting new young players

[grave glen]

Who’s going up in la liga?

[pure flax]

This season they gave young players chances which is good

[solemn rain]

The new players all suck ass

[pure flax]

No

[grave glen]

Next season we should have a academy player in every position

👀👍

[grim thicket]

well the ESL structure as proposed was a bad idea obv, no relegation and all, but a global league based on that, where matches are played all over the world isnt a bad idea imo, especially for me who does not live in europe....
and well its obviously a good idea for the clubs that were participating, it was a bucketload of money for them

[grave glen]

Yes get rid of ter stegen and buy Masip back

Hmmm, nah. We have Inaki Pena

[solemn rain]

There will never be a team from la masía like the 87 team

[grim thicket]

yeah and maybe take a trip of segunda and be back

thatll give yall some silverware lmao

[grave glen]

The day a super league is created i stop watching football

Dont give two fucks about money

[stiff fjord]

He sucks

[grave glen]

Football isnt about that

its a filthy business now

[grim thicket]

atleast you can say "barca has won more segundas than real"

[grave glen]

Uhhhhh, don’t think we should be talking about silverware here....

[grim thicket]

we should tbf, i get it copa del rey is a big deal for a club like barca, but still

nah im just kidding

[stiff fjord]

facts atleti have the most in spain

[solemn rain]

Real Madrid won’t be winning shit this season 😂😂😂

Nor will Barça

[grave glen]

We already won Copa lol.
