Luckily bale and Isco are leaving
And hopefully we can get rid of hazard too
That’d be nice
Reports suggest the club is going to throw the stowaways off the ship
👀
Like Bale
This is 100% bales last season here
And hazard
Kind of a bittersweet story
But I will miss him
His time is just done here. It’s the best for both parties
BTW, keep a good password and activate 2fa. Good method to keep your account safe
Everyone at Chelsea knew Hazard doesn't train as hard as anyone else. So I guess it was something only he could have prevented
I meant bale but that too
He gained weight, became unfit and then got injuries
Cause i had very high hopes for hazard
Bale doesn't have the right mentality anymore.
But someone in his situation doesn’t belong in Real Madrid
When Bale had said No to Zizou, and instead preferred golf over club football, I knew this guy is done
How do you feel about a rudiger signing for free. Would alleviate some cb shortage problems, which is nice but I don’t watch Chelsea games so I don’t know exactly how good he is
Rudiger? I don't think he is even interested
He is at Chelsea and good there, winning titles
Just been seeing his name for a while now. Last few months actually. Something about his contract renewal at Chelsea Not progressing
Teams like Bayern Chelsea and us apparently are interested
There are more chances of him going to Bayern
That makes sense

commandments 😭 😭
Rudiger isn't good in a 4atb formation
Silva covers his bombing forward a lot in chelsea
They pay rudiger 1/3 of what they pay werner
He currently makes less than chillwell
Being unhappy is kinda expected
Rudiger got exposed at Germany NT
He's ok but he looks better than he is because tuchel
Tt made kimpembe look good 😂
Since he left psg are shipping goals to Clermont foot and brest
Kimpembe is one of the biggest frauds out there
He's a bone head
B-b-but but he’s in that French song 🥺

Anyways
We against
Athletic
Bilbao
Tough match
Maybe we should rotate a bit

Forgot

❗| Modrić and Kroos are expected to start against Athletic tonight. @diarioas
896
Bruh
Modric is 36
He’s gonna pass out
He is your best player
Play Valverde ffs
/s
He’s a great player but needs rest we need to use Valverde and camavinga more
I don't care if we lose 5-0 or 10-0, I’ll still be a fan of the club
Because they’re our future
What
Nothing
Ok…
Factos👍👀

holy shit that’s pretty underwhelming for a RWB
they are SUPPOSED to be technical
You’re getting f*cked, Thomas. I don’t want to see you faking a smile after we demolish you at your home ground. We’re not a Bundesliga team, we’re Barcelona, the best team in the world. https://t.co/sYGjBDzRJB

We’re not a Bundesliga team, we’re Barcelona, the best team in the world
vidal on twitter?

on behalf of Barca fans
we do not accept this fan at our club.
We offer him to PSG fans at the cost of €0.

@unkempt dew do u accept this offer?
Which game?
madrid vs bilbao

how do u win a ballon dor when u have 0 goals in the league 😂
lewa has 69 goals but didn't win it 😂 👍
I hope we best Kiev
.
kroos and his funny statements never end
surely that dude is memeing
he's memeing

it should have been obvious when he quoted vidal basically word for word
Yeah
muller never needed any motivation vs barca tbh
7g / 2a in 6 games 
3g + 2a in 2013
2g + a in 2020
this is ronaldo vs barca
20g + 3a in 34 games
for reference
how many does messi have against madrid
26 goals
14 assists
In 45 games
not bad
that was one of the greatest Classicos
Sí
reus vs muller> messi vs ronaldo
common knowledge mate
🎙| Pique: "I would rather die than play for Real Madrid." @marca
2027
Who gassed this guy
his name has "bernabeu" in it
💀

Sergi Roberto is going under the knife due to a thigh problem. He’ll be out for about four months.
Wishing him a speedy recovery.
Well more rotation gone for Barca
i think he won't be playing anymore for barca, his contract ends this season
1 less mediocre player = win
nice pfp
good for barca, now they can play mingueza only
sell roberto, sell dest
get a good RB
Mingueza is so shit
Kind of a lack of depth on that side now.
At least Dani Alves will be available next month.
oof
No thanks

Lots of Copa del Rey matches coming up within the next hour.
In the meantime, Zaragoza are struggling against a fourth tier team.
We never wanted him though xD
fuck me the madrid game is at 4am for me again
why cant they play earlier for my sleep's sake
i might just have to move to madrid so my sleep sched wont be disrupted by their schedule lmao
4 am is still good
You sleep at 10 wake at 4 nice 6hrs of sleep
We’ve got it at fucking 1:30 right in the middle
its 1am for me rn
Bruhhhh
Get some sleep imo
its gonna be shite if i sleep now and wake up at 4
Get at least some sort of rest before the match.
What’s ur time zone
i sleep like a brick so if i sleep that'll be a solid 6+ hours at least. can never get up in between
GMT+8
Tuff
Messi fcked barca
barto did
Now lewA wanna punish Barca week in week out
Barca been fucked for quite some time now
Nah
yah
Lewa to Madrid

that doesn't make any sense cus leo is in PSG now
Panadería Pulido
a bakery that plays vs real sociedad in CDR
This is why dembele won't renew
gonna support them cause I like breads

News: Ousmane Dembele injured after carrying the weight of the camera.
They sure been having fun during training since xavi's team arrived

bread
🫓
flatbread
Ok anyway
Barca fans how has Xavi been so far?
Thoughts on his performances?
fuck laliga
what why?
Don't pay much attention to the subs. I needed to mention them at least
21st century
yeah good point
Decent ig
Fair enough
Villa is legendary
Instead of Redondo, could get Guti or Xabi
Shit i totally forgot about Guti
😭 🤣
So Xabi Alonso instead of Redondo
Deco out Yaya in
Maybe Guti for Beckham?
hmm
But its Beckham 👑
Nah beckham ngl, in my opinion
He was a galactico after all
ping?
I see
Fuck you
holy crap, i just took a look at the laliga table and real madrid are 7 points clear😭
finishing merchants
Real Madrid going on a tear the past 5 matches
bilbao had chances to score first but they’re non clinical
you dont say
lmao
i mean
rn real are clear
but us, soceiodad, sevilla and betis all have a chance
rayo as well💀
real is shit defensively
last season was so exciting, even sevilla had a chance
they legit just score more than the other team
this season, its either Real or Atleti to win the league
rest are all just to make up the European spots
if oblak wasnt in such poor form atleti would be closer
i dont think that this level of outperformance is sustainable tho
yh, they wont be keeping this up all season
yh
much closer
shows how important he is to us
barca aren't as bad as the table suggests
Xavi purple patch will run out soon
barca have been unlucky
they are consistently producing more xG but cant finish as well and have below average keeping
skill issue imo
partly yes
Real Madrid has to sort out their defending
but they will also be easily higher than 7th at the end of the season
yeah they are 8th best itl this season before counting for shot stopping
Champions League also matters
yes
i think there will either be new signings in january
or Ancelotti will sort out alaba and miltao
coz rn, its just benz and vini carrying
they are playing shit defensively
at least we play more entertaining football
as i said, vini and benz are scoring like 3 goals every match to win
entertaining football my ass
just because you get to dominate vs teams like Dynamo Kyiv
ur ass is entertaining?
didnt Athletic nearly beat you when they played you this season?
nah
Perez almost never makes signings in Jan
true
they almost beat you yesterday but couldnt finish their chances
but he didnt make any signings in the summer either
except camavinga
he is waiting for next summer
Don't you mean you entertain the rival fans? 
we usually get only weaker teams
hmm
lets see how xavis tactics fare vs better teams
clearly Benfica wasnt a weaker team
ikr
and we dominated
Good luck against Bayern 
if only depay knew how to finish
if Seferovic scored that sitter, you would already be in Europa
consider yourself lucky
thanks we need it
Saying good luck is bad luck 
if depay took a shot, we would be in the knockouts]
but he cut back
just to lose against someone like Man City in R16
and tried to round the keeper in 1 on 1
but failed
barca wont make it past the round of 16
yeah.....dont act like you would come first in a group with bayern
or win against man city
yep
at least we wouldnt get thrashed like you
we actually have a good record vs Bayern
lets see
Ill accept quarters for us
given our lack of squad depth
but semis wouldnt hurt either
last szn it was semis right?
who do you play next?
porto right?
yh
yes
if we make it out of the group, we will get knocked out in the quarters
if not
then maybe europa semis
or simeone sacked
if you dont win then you are out right?
imagine simeone sacked😳
yh
if Simeone gets sacked, Atleti are done
no that isnt happening
yessir
that man made you what you are
ik
the dude has made atletico
his tactics r the reason of ur success
simeone and atleti go together perfectly
yh
he will probably retire at atleti
and he won us the league twice
simeone got the job just after you guys got promoted back to la liga right?
yea
including prime barca and madrid era
if Ancelotti wins La Liga, he will have all top 5 league titles in his cabinet
yh
noice
he consistenly got us to 2nd and third during the prime barca and madrid era
damn
made the entire world believe la liga was always a threehorse race
massive credits to the guy
we have 4 positions to fill up + Mbappe
Mbappe, RB, CB, CM, and ST is a must
for next season
we have 11 positions to fill
he also has a talent for making world class gks
and no money
rip
but realistically tho we could sign a 40-50 million player in the summer
but thats all
no way
and thats if our wage bill clears
umtitty and longlegs should go
dembele out
and coutinho
he will leave on a free
for us, we have to sell lots of players
and we are planning to
Jovic, Mariano, Vallejo, and Ceballos are 4 that have to be sold
especially latter 3, Jovic still has this year to prove
I will also throw in Asensio unless he does well this year
ur tactics depend on oblak being on form
isco?
Isco leaving for free
oh
gonna be a tough job
all that weight
benzema will find it tough to carry him on his back
even rn, its benzema and vini carrying
yep
with Mbappe, our attack should be sorted
and we got depth there
just need consistency
you never know
Rodrygo as backup next year
how these big transfers tend to go
we need a striker however for backup as Jovic and Mariano are just bad
that Alvarez kid can work ig
and for LW, idk
someone random
just not Hazard
I would say Asensio but my dude cannot play on the wing
why does real have mariano?
was he good at one point?
or what
makes sense
Eric Garcia & Riqui Puig play an all-time favorite of Barça's social media channels. Which emojis will he pick for each of his team-mates?

I like how riqui rarely plays but always in club media
lol
Thought it was official by now, but it seems like Orbelin Pineda to Celta Vigo is still imminent.
He’ll join in January.
this might potentially be a good signing for vigo hopefully
He’ll definitely add some depth on the wings. He’s got competition though, but Pineda is a bit versatile too.
He’s gonna be competing with the likes of Nolito, Brais Mendez, and Cervi.
It’s also rumored that Denis Suarez is being put up to sale.
denis suarez is still on vigo?? damn
Nolito 
Yep, and they’re actually tired of him now, he may be sold.
He also doesn’t want to extend, even though the offer on the table includes a pay raise. He’d be one of Celta’s highest earners ever.
Lol
If he keeps going like this atletico are probably winning
Factos👀👍
Made the same mistake in 2015
I think
Yeah he did
Didn't rotate the squad modric got injured season over
If they get a reliable cb (de ligt) in january they are ucl contenders
Midfield needs rest
Play Valverde and rest either kroos or modric if needed then sub them on in second half
why isn't his doc called Cojones
i'm disappointed
Factos👀👍
Our rivals talking respectfully about simeome
Respect 🙏
Paritdo a partido is his famous words
step by step ?
"One game at a time"
ok
you hung out with cholo?
Nah but he seems fun man
Theres another documentary about atletico winning laliga journey
Or something like that
Helloo guys
again
Nuh uh
Real Madrid ftw this time
one player gets injured, season is over
also u saw how they played against athletic
it was courtois who saved them
thats it
Atleti isn't exactly playing like barca 2009 either
meanwhile griezmann is getting back to his best
They will drop points too
real will collapse without benzema
who is basically playing day in day out for france and real
its kinda iffy
against?
they could come back with llorente being back
cholo seems to be changing up his style now
cadiz iirc
simeone already had to deal with key injuries
Its not like injuries are a quota
they're basically guaranteed without breaks
He had to deal with them but there can still be more

ancelottie wont be able to do that
@short thorn cunha might start against mallorca and suarez on bench
ancelotti's black magic is over
Seriously
zidane took his juju
Cunha is sick
yeah I was thinking th same
He proved himself in the cadiz game
cunha is great
Suarez fits a 50th min sub
barca this season tho 
He runs out of gas immediately
and griezmann is fitting in again
I mean he was never bad, but hes playing more like his old self
Cunha x grizi
Good news trippier is back with them team training
Bad news: lemar and giminez are training alone
Felix is also back in the team training that's also a good news
Carrasco might be a doubt
dang
I feel like if we dont get too much injuries
simeone can play the way he prefers
and we'll win
Defense lost its black magic too
We concede even tho we score alot
We turning into last year real madrid
yeah idk whats up with that
Savic and giminez are aging
hes 26 holy
Hermoso losses confidence whenever the opponent pressure us
we need to buy a new cb in jan or were dead ig
Felipe is good at handling pressures but he needs to learn how defened aerial balls
We need trippier back up and lodi back up
Hopefully manu sanchez comes back from osasuna we need him badly
His on loan on Osasuna and is going a good job
yeah
llorente is so deadly in midfield
I Feel like the attack is alr usually
Like 45min gameplay or 30min
Suarez sometimes doesn't run whenever our mid gives a through pass
hmm
Lemar being subbed off the last 2 games was the biggest mistake cholo did
Lemar is one of our best 11
I feel like koke needs a rest
yeah
352 and 532 fits against barca
he played it when he got to ucl finals too iirc
2014 and 2016 was 442 style
did cunha play st?
Yea
hmm
Idk with this kit we always played shit
we used this kit twice and lost both times
We had a pink kit in 2014/15 too
yeah that was much brighter
and it had white stripes
But pink does not look good on a mens football kit
no matter what team
Nice looking kit, should wear often
Tbf I think the kit is decent just we are cursed with it
yall should wear that often
it was 2020/21 season kit 
camavinga should start then
yea make one of ur kits pink
Good idea
@devout geyser If Marcelino gets sacked (I haven’t been watching Athletic much these days), do you think a return of Ernesto Valverde would be a good idea?
Also why are we linked to signing Azpi
You know what
Give Unai Simon whatever thing he wants
He’s been our saviour
We would be worse than average if we didn’t have Simon 
How many clubs you support?
I have seen your name having bilbao Gladbach Napoli & Ajax lol
Do you support all of them or you are just memeing half the time

Hello
Yes?
How to get nominated for dfdor
At least I can join psg with that
We will let you know in the coming weeks
Thanks bro

I doubt it tbh
In the last 1-2 months maybe
But whole year nah

Worst kit oat 🤮
Nah uefalonas pink kit was cool
well
personally, I dont want him back
his football will make me poke my eyes out
but he can get results
I personally want Iraola
one because he is overachieving insanely with Rayo
he got Mirandes to a CDR semi final in 19/20
and he is a club legend
I get that appointing former players as coaches usually doesnt end well
but he already has some experience
he got Rayo promoted and is now having them in race for top 6
wtf
oh wait
makes sense
Azpi is a Basque LMAO
Azpilicueta?
yes
Azpilicueta is from a Basque district called Zizur Mayor in Pamplona
Azpilicueta is a Basque last name
Oh yeah he’s linked with Barcelona apparently
The Spanish team will be the Barca team soon
and Spain's goalkeeper is a Basque

Spain: Catalans and Basques are morons
also Spain: Por favor, danos buenos jugadores catalanes y vascos

😂
Factos👍👀
isn't spanish team full of catalans anyway
That is what he meant
Right wing/Nationalist Spanish people hate basques and catalans
And yet they happily take them in their football team
exactly
Unai Simon and Cesar Azpilicueta start for Spain
yet they are Basques
in the past, Xabi Alonso started for Spain
he is also a Basque
Spain's golden generation had loads of Catalans and Basques
and yet the nation itself portays both of those regions as criminals
Yeah lmao
I always say this
leave politics out of football
for the national team, a Basque, a Catalan, a Castilian, and an Andalusian are all Spanish
Spain needs Catalonia and Basque Country
And Catalonia/Basque Country needs spain
The right wing nationalists are bonafide morons
España unida ❤️
Xavi GOAT
its actually not as intense between normal citizens in Spain
I have lots of friends from Madrid
and they dont shit on me just because I am a Basque
its the idiots in the government that try stir up shit between people
if it was so bad, why do Catalans, Basques, and Spanish all celebrate the goals together?
True
CDR history made
for the first time
a team in CDR never had a shot in one game
Emery masterclass
🗒️ written down
Who’s worse in terms of play style- getafe or Burnley
Getafe
Getafe
Then instead of calling getafe Spanish Burnley Burnley should be called English getafe
Burnley are at least a bit more daring going forward, and actually have forwards that fit their style of play.
Getafe no doubt
which is sad, because Getafe is not la liga’s worst squad
they do have some interesting players
as of late they have picked up some form, must be said
Isn't Getafe hated by most Spanish clubs?
yeah they’re hated cause they barely have a strong fanbase
they usually not filling their stadium
so people dislike them being in top flight
plus with bordalas, who is now at valencia, they played dirty destructive football
always trying to dive, wasting time
and at last, getafe has historically been a club that madrid uses to loan its fringe or young players
Not as much today, but certainly a couple seasons ago
Ohhh ok

my god..
Spanish football is truly finished
0 shots...
understandable for a lower division team i guess
they are a non league team lmao
Teams that qualified for Round 2:
Valladolid
Huesca
Andorra
Granada
Alaves
Villarreal
Alcorcon
Sporting Gijon
Cartagena
Atletico Sanluqueno
Getafe
Alcoyano
Celta Vigo
Burgos
Albacete
Almeria
Zaragoza
Bergantinos

Cadiz
Tenerife
Ur knowledge finished
sad
sorry for a long list
No panaderia pulido
but thats how it is
Deportivo La Coruna 😍
?
Hope one day we can see them back in top flight
I think everyone should take a look at Malaga
they are on a decent form
and are 7th in Segunda rn
if they keep it up, they could make playoffs
Teams that will join Round 2 automatically:
Atletico Madrid
Real Madrid
Barcelona
Athletic Bilbao
Agree
tbh
round 1 wasnt that bad
not many upsets but you cant expect much from non league teams lol
same man
I actually want them to make a decent run
in CDR
hope maybe Athletic get to play them
if we do and its at Riazor, im going to that game
because Deportivo's stadium is very nice
Why is that?
Round bye
Malaga back would also be nice
Atletico won the league
Real finished 2nd
Barca won CDR
Athletic were runner ups
also Athletic won Supercopa
so even if we didnt get to the final
we wouldve made it to Round 2 automatically
We are extra time merchants in CDR
we are late goal merchants in CDR
lies, you supporting Kyiv soon
imagine if they get Barca to R16
We choke we get laughed at @grave glen
if thats the case, build Kyiv's statue in front of Camp Nou
Then they would be my 2nd favorite club
Real Madrid, FC Barcelona and Athletic Bilbao are offering La Liga clubs a better alternative to the CVC deal. Clubs would receive 2 billion euros over 25 years with an interest rate of 3%.
@partidazocope
oh dang
Is that good or bad??
ill just summarize
basically Primera and Segunda clubs will have equal amount of money funded in each of their leagues
R they accepting?
That would be too good
dont know yet
So that’s good
I think,
Amazing
And of course that fuck Tebas doesnt want it
Fucking idiot
Good for florentino, laporta and whoever bilbao president is
Fun fact
Those are the only fan-owned clubs
Coincidence?
Fuck you tebas ur as terrible as the rest of em
Elizegi
he is our president
man is a huge Basque nationalist
he wants Basque Country to have a national team in UEFA
we all know that's impossible since Basque Country belongs to Spain
Lol
and he is a good chef
he won an award for being the best chef in Spain once
he owns lots of restaurants in Basque Country
Athletic Bilbao is hands down the best managed club in La Liga
Regarding economy, academy, sporting development etc
Fantastic example of how to run a club
I’ve heard basque food is delicious
we still have that Kepa money in our bank
why would we spend 75m on a goalkeeper when we got someone promising in academy (Unai Simon)
Simon cost nothing and he is already twice the keeper Kepa is
if not more
Wait so did Laporte want to leave or did u just sell him.
both
he couldnt turn down that offer in January
he already rejected City in the summer reluctantly
O
Bilbao sold Javi Martinez and Llorente too back in the day
Ander Herrera
Would u take him back?
good players
of course lol
he said he will keep following our club
even when he left
he suggested we use that money we got from him to improve the team
How much did u get?
City gave us around 60m
tbh City activated his release clause
we couldnt do much
we did force Chelsea to pay us 75m though for Kepa

also release clause
Kepa was good at Bilbao
but Unai Simon is better anyways
plus Kepa flopped at Chelsea
and Mendy replaced him
Kepa was good yeah
for us
and he wasnt that bad in his first season at Chelsea
but then he sucked lol
yes very good team
Trashed united 3-0
and then we lost Copa del Rey and Europa league in the same week
couldnt handle prime Barca and Simeone's Atleti
fucking Falcao
in his peak, man was on another planet
If Catalonia is not independent then Basque most likely won't be either
yes basically
Basques have been wanting independence longer than Catalans
really?
oof
if basque and catalonia gain independence will barca, espanyol and bilbao still play in laliga?
Basque and Catalan independence is an interesting topic for a history/politics server 👀
Should stick to la liga discussion ngl
It can quickly derail
true true
i think real will continue their form until january of feb
and then they will fall off
and we will catch up
hopefully we get our form back up
basically reverse of last season
Atleti was in this kind of form last season
but then they began slipping
and eventually Real Madrid and Barcelona caught up
although Barcelona went lower at the end of the season

2 underrated players. Best argentine CAMs of the 2000s. Played a lot of derbies one against each other, whether it was in Argentina or Spain
But at the end of the day, who do you prefer at their prime, Juan Román Riquelme or Pablo Aimar?
Riquelme any day of the week
A commanding presence
Just a special player to watch
Had some exquisite vision and assist passing
Saw him live actually
#Riquelme
really? where did you watch him?
Boca Juniors visited Santa Laura (Unión Española) back in like 2012 or 2011 I think
And I went to see my club
It was Libertadores 2012
Los goles del partido con relato de Walter Saavedra Am 790 Radio Mitre (Incluye los 5 goles del partido) Boca Clasificado a Cuartos de final de la Santander Libertadores 2012
Well, i'm glad you recognize class. Riquelme has been kinda forgotten lately, or at least i felt it like that in worldwide football
yeah yeah i remember that match
We lost the final sadly
but damn, it was such a crazy squad
Well Riquelme had his best years in South America i guess
He kind of flopped at Barca
Riquelme was a different kind of CAM that you see nowadays
And in Villareal he did well but then had problems with the coach I think
So his stay there was short
He used his body and physical ability to always bet for the 1 vs 1 and dribble
Yeah, very physical player
Commanding like i said before
Kinda weird to see a CAM nowadays using his body and try always a one vs one duel
When he hd the ball, he wouldnt lose it
You couldnt take it from hima
At Barcelona, he had trouble with Van Gaal
And he simply controlled the game like that
Van Gaal kinda screwed him since he never played where he knew
Just a beauty to watch
As a CAM in the heart of the attack
He wasn't very fast, but if you gave him some time with the ball, he was deadly
I saw that he had the most assists in the 2000s decade
But another player i liked as well was Aimar. His case is worse because nowadays nobody remembers him even though he's a Valencia legend
I remember him
Valencia back then was dope
Aimar-Ayala
Ayala forgotten defender
Probably one of south america’s best center backs
Aimar left for Benfica then, right?
Yep
Btw, there also were Copa América champs
You 20 something lad?
There's Ayala missing there. He, Samuel and Aimar were part of Scaloni's coach team
Its refreshing to talk about older gens for once
Walter Samuel 🔥
Inter 2010
A bit younger, but my dad always told me about football history
And i know for a fact that there will never be another CB duo in The Americas such as the Rat Ayala and the Wall Samuel
Can't say i lived it all, but i know a lot of SA history if you wanna talk
That’s dope
Did you ever see Gary Medel at Boca
where are you from mate?
Or was that before your time
I’m chilean
yeah 😍
I was young
Pitbull
But i remember him
And alexis at River
Old times
We never got any other player like him
Simeone masterclass
From champion to bottom of the league in the span of one year lmao
Holy shit ur right
Cholo had that river
lmao
There are some things in SA football that you just can't see in Europe
Yeah the vibe is entirely different
South american ball is just passionate all the way through
From the constant dribbling, the arenas and the chants, the fans
The verticality
Can we agree that there will never be a more enigmatic brother rivalry than this?
It might lack the discipline and tactical order that euro football has but
Imagine having to mark your own brother in a UCL semifinal
Its unmatched in pulse, verticality and vibe
The milito brothers 🔥
Iconic
The UCL is unmatched nowadays when it comes to quality, but the nerve you need to have to play a Libertadores match and go to the pitch with the stands singing...
I will never forget the Libertadores 2013 group stages
It ended with Tigre and Palmeiras with 9 points and Libertad and Sporting Cristal with 8 points at the bottom
Imagine ending last and only one point above the first in your group
btw since you're chilean i think you'll remember this amazing squad
Yeah holy fuck
They were absolutely monsters that sudamericana
The bayern of south america back then
I was a fan, especially from Gustavo Lorenzetti
Loved watching em
Jeez, that midget was a magician
It cost us a lot to beat them back in the 2012 Libertadores semifinals
I think they were the only squad in winning the Sudamericana with 0 defeats
Lorenzetti, Matias rodriguez, Eduardo Vargas
Charles aranguiz
Chelo diaz, keno mena
This was actually the other half of that copa america winning chile
Still, it was truly a shock when they lost the Recopa Sudamericana to Ney's Santos and the Suruga Bank to a random japanese team
The first half was the generation of vidal, alexis and bravo
The second was these universidad players
you're right, i completely forgot Chelo Diaz was there
Yeah 
Eugenio Mena too
Crazy 🔥
Sampaoli's U de Chile > Sampaoli's Sevilla ||(And Argentina too )||
it was such a crazy year for us here in 2011. U de Chile playing worldclass football, River getting relegated, Messi's hate at his peak, River getting relegated...
I remember that so well
Southamerican football was in shock
