Also without Ronaldinho and Herny by his side.
ronaldo has always played with world class players at madrid, in teams designed around him and arrived in la liga as the ballon d'or holder entering his peak as a player

Go Dortmund, make the Bundesliga spannend again.
I'd be very disappointed if Pep gets lucky.

Hardly a fair comparison. Messi started his career there. Ronaldo went there as a 23 year old having already had a 42 goal season playing in England.
Edit: Eep, Mahrez hamstring pulled?

Unlike Penaldo, Messi plays for the team and isn't selfish.

Was a great match at times.
We should have used our wings more clever and get some crosses in.
Congrats on the title.
Foxes will crash at any second now.
Indeed a great and intense match. But it's not yet decided.
Congrats. Hope they pull it off by staying mentally strong.

Biggest assister in RM last season. Selfish? lol. Yeah he's selfish sometimes. Like you know... ANY other player in the world. I've seen Benzema and Bale being selfish. Heck, I've seen hundreds of situations where players have been selfish. But to call him selfish as a whole? Wha..?
What kind of words would you choose to describe the DOZENS and dozens of players that are paid MILLIONS or HUNDREDS of THOUSANDS a month to provide like 5 assists in a WHOLE season? You know if Ronaldo is selfish, maybe those guys are selfish too, they should let someone take their spot and salary then, they're being selfish by staying at a club racking in millions while providing less assists than someone who is considered to be a selfish player.
You can spin it any way you want, but if this guy is selfish, then nearly everyone is MORE selfish than him. Or they simply are worse players than him.
In any of these two cases in my last sentence, whichever you prefer, Ronaldo is still better than those players.
Edit: It's like saying this guy sucks at football. I can't understand this. If this guys sucks, then what about all the other strikers? What kind of words would someone use for them? The irony is every coach says they'd love to have Ronaldo on their team. You know, coaches, those people that are actually paid and know something about football.
2nd edit: I'm not saying he is the greatest player ever either. I'm just a little bit more rational than some people it seems, or less blinded by hate, I don't know, I don't get it, my brain just doesn't process things like most people do. I just appreciate good players, and always appreciated Messi and Ronaldo. Everyone looks at their bad side, I prefer to look at their qualities instead. I'm not perfect either, so I don't expect anyone else to be.

Ah, we rolling out the Ronaldo-Messi stats again, this time by comparing a player who started La Liga as a youngster to one who joined in his prime. Messi too busy adding another treble to his collection and giving away penalties to be worrying about goals stats padding.
Shudder to think how small clubs like Real Madrid can compete against such transfer fee breaking giants.

Looking at points table, a Chelsea win would have placed them on 6th. What a stupid game to draw.

That is just terrible. Never blow during active play in the area, should have blown before the cross into the box if at all.

I thought the whole rule is to never blow the whistle is the ball is in either oppositions penalty area?
Almost as bad refereeing as in the Premier League.
There's no actual rule, but they are supposed to use common sense to avoid things like this happening.

That looks like proper brown envelope stuff. The ball was literally on its way in as he started blowing for half time. Mad.
Claudio Pizarro, lads
holy shit
Pretty good result. Enough lead to feel comfortable, but still pressure to not fall into a low lime the previous years. This game was a big in your face from Pep to some Bayern guys here.
Still in disbelief that we won yesterday. Can't remember the last time we beat Everton, can't remember that last time Lukaku didn't score against us, can't remember the last time we saved a penalty, can't remember the last time we came back from 2-0 down.
2-0 and you fucked it up, Toffees!
2-0 and you fucked it up, Toffees!
We seriously did. We need to sort out our defensive tactics when we're ahead.
Did Stones get injured or something? Otherwise, I don't really understand the substitution for Beić.
Another big lead and Dortmund not even trying is what I hope we would avoid. And even the most die hard BVB supporter witnessed the gap between them and Bayern, so no worry. Having a light pressure in every competition is the best for us.
