But I'm never wrong.

Probably not possible to get rid of Torres then.... or get him away from PSG. But yes, would rather have Cavani. I would be happy either way though... Actually fuck FFP, just give us both dear Uncle Roman.

Arjen Robben: 'It's not easy (to come here and score), they, especially for a team like Real Madrid, played very defensively'.

Surprisingly he didn't in the interview 1 minute ago. He even told he didn't want to play the german style and told them to pass a lot and keep possession lol. He has a lot of optimism for the second match.

I hate that thought process, it's disingenuous. You play possession game, make your possession work.
What does he want more space? lolol

For me all starts with unloading Luiz for stupid monies and getting Lampard, Cole and Torres wages off the books.
Someone mentioned yesterday that it seems Costa is all but done. If Cavani (who I also rate over Costa) would push for a move, then we would be foolish to not look into it if we can keep the books balanced.

New sponsorship deals, TV money, Mata/KdB transfers (for big profit on the books) and getting Essien off the wages with Ba, Mikel, Eto'o, some/all of Torres, possibly Lampard/Cole (or reduced wages) and money from the probable sale of Luiz (make sure we get a decent price off those cunts) - I don't see FFP being an issue. Despite the buys in recent years club seems to be taking it seriously.
Need a striker and someone else to partner Matic in the pivot - can Barkley play there? I doubt it but I want him anyway and some squad players and we'll be alright.
I think Lampard and Cole may well stay on less money. Cole was very good last night despite not playing for ages, Jose will be aware of that. If we did get Shaw - which won't happen for £30m, we'll get the Sevilla left back who we're pushing for in a swap deal for Marin - they will want Cole to bed him in, teach him the ropes and mentor him. As long as he doesn't suggest he gets a beard it would be very good for us.
It was never about scoring "a lot" with him. Much like van bommel it was/is when he scored that mattered. There where plenty of tight games where a well placed shot broke through, or flew over, the defence and ended up in the back of the net and you could literally see the enthusiasm drain from the faces of the opposition.
Players like kroos, you can't base your game around them but it would be insanity to say you would not want at least one player of that class and type in your squad
Pep's current favourite song on his playlist must be dido - white flag
I wish Van Ginkel didn't miss so much time this year so we could better assess his role. He's still so, so young.
We're clearly on the same page Steve....
It's not suprising.
You need to keep Real under pressure and Bayern tried to hold possesion and slowed the game down so many fucking times.
Kroos is a joke as 10 and it's such a shame someone as talented as Götze is on the bench.
As much as I hate that cunt for leaving us, but he's on a whole different level compared to Kroos.
They should have put Kroos and Martinez as 6 from the beginning.
Schweinsteiger is far from being helpful lately, and Lahm should be playing as RB with no fucking doubt.

He's really into kissing dat RDM family
Goddammit I will miss Luiz, as big as a window licker he can be defensively, he's my very charming nice window licker.

really looking forward to the second leg. if real's attack is on form they will score, they looked devastating on the counter. but if pep reverts to a more traditional shape like at the end of the umited game it could get ugly after 60 minutes, dont know how well real would cope.
I don't think pep wants to concede that his style isn't working, but theyve looked toothless in these CL games

Mourinho is getting himself banned just to also send the reserve manager.
I can't believe people don't realize he's trolling.

I can't believe people don't realize he's trolling.
I don't think we'll approach the game any differently.
My biggest fear is that we expect them to sit back and they come at us at high intensity from the start.
They unsettled us at the Bridge.
He could play any team and it wouldn't suprise me. I'm half expecting Hazard at right-back to get some fitness for Atletico.
You win 2-1 and you're still stuck at home for the final
Lampard, Matic, Ramires, Mikel, Salah, and Cech are all out against Atletico.
Terry, Willian, and Hazard are pretty much the only players he can rest lol.

It's Freemufasa. It's more likely a joke thread.

What did you think today?
The game? Maybe! The whole tie? Never. Real will get chances and they will use them.
More surprised it's not locked.

I feel like one of the few who wants him to stay :/
God, imagine if we won with a second XI.

Nonsense. They've definitely lost form, but they aren't damaged. They miss Thiago big time. Temporary blip. The problem is it's come at the worst time of the season.
And Lol at worse to watch than Chelsea.

I don't know man. They're pretty good at the Allianz.
