He did not play enough for me to pass judgement. So far it is a loss of money due to all the injuries, next season though I would be able to assess him as our player better.

No Ramos no party, I don't think we will make it. And the other thing is that our attack is dead (compared to years gone)
We can't score (dead basically by our standards) + very weakened defense (no Ramos) + Missing our team leader (Ramos) = we have no chance of advancing whatsoever.

Klopp wont get sacked. He’ll bring Liverpool something they missed for what? Two decades?Atlético has to knock out Liverpool from the CL.

Liverpool will play out of their minds and Atlético attack being weak this season does not inspire confidence that Atlético will make it BUT they do have a good chance to do so.
I don't think so. Last year we had the same problems in the second leg (no Ramos + weakened attack) and the result of that was Ajax knocking us out of the competition.

Juventus chairman Agnelli: "I have a lot of respect for what Atalanta is doing but without international history and only one good season, they are playing in the top international club competition... Is this fair?"
Juve chairman is still harping trying to get a super league going
Atalanta deserve to be in the UCL and Agnelli dreams of a super league should be crushed

Very possible yeah
I can see the point difference but there is about 10~11 more games to play
Does Arsenal have the form required to make it? Arsenal have a habit of crashing come the end of the season.
Good news for Atlético if true

We have shit attack so there is no reason for concern
You can go all out on attack and forget about defending, in fact we are crippled defensively too without Ramos

I totally forgot Icardi was at PSG now. I guess that's what happens when you go to PSG.

He and specifically his wife were trouble makers when he was in Inter too. His wife is cancer and he is an idiot who will go with it.

Setien insisting players happy with several elements of Clasico performance. "We created seven chances, we had four clear chances in the first half."
Barcelona were better in the first half, Real Madrid dominated the second half and scored twice.
If Barcelona continue the way they are currently I don't see Setien keeping his job for long.

What is the verdict on Ceballos at Arsenal? he does not seem quality enough for us but have potential to step up and so far he didn't. In part it is his own fault but also it is the unsuitability in Arsenal at fault as well. Maybe we should find another club for him to grow, or if he won't step up to be sold.

Solid player with great footwork. His only downside is that he’s heavy

Too slow when he need to move fast? what does he need to do to have more playtime? he did not play much for the entire season (the time he was injured aside)
Mista

Yes. Also thats something he can't control because he's just the heavy type. He got a great view of the pitch, great passing, and great footwork. He's a proper midfielder
He played a lot under Emery but when Arteta came of course he have to prove himself. He got injured and when he returned he was sloppy but stepped his game up
The lad wants to go to the Euro and I can see it
Dark Rider
Member
I feel he can do well with either a defensive side where he is taking control of the game or alternatively a side that press high and keep the ball so he is in the middle of the opposite team half to create chances for his team mates.

Another defeat this season....
Neither Real Madrid nor Barcelona are at their best this season but then fate has it that Atlético Madrid are going through a rebuild too and can't take advantage. The rest of the gang are not in a good place too as Sevilla, Valencia and the other teams are in bad form. The only exception is Getafe

A great 4-0 win for us yesterday, and Billy GOATmour again with a 10/10 performance.
Ross Barkley great aswell, as was Mount.
Hoping City do us a favour against Arsenal and Spurs and United draw so we can extend our lead further.

I do like the way Chelsea play under Lampard and your youth seem extremely promising. Have to be honest, I’ve hated Chelsea since Abramovich took over, have often seemed like a team of big mercenaries. But this current team is easy on the eye and you just can’t hate on young players trying to make it.

I can completely understand why teams hate us, we went from a midtable side to a titan with countless amounts of Russian Blood Money overnight.
I do love this young team, some of the players I am not as sold on as other people (Abraham for one), but overall I am very happy with the young talent bleeding through.
I can see us spending a decent amount in the summer as our squad is lacking in quality and depth and Lampard is doing miracles with this squad to have us where we are right now.
I would want a top LB (Telles, Grimaldo, Gaya), a great ST (Edouard, Werner, Dembele) and a winger (Sancho, Chukwueze, Bailey).
These three are our priorities, after that we can talk a new midfielder to replace the aging and declining Kante and Jorginho, and a WC CB but apart from that we just need a few really quality players and we are set.

Yeah super long term United fan, since 89 because everybody back then supported Liverpool. Choosing United turned out to be an inspired choice lol. I really started paying attention when Giggs broke into the team, before Giggs I never really enjoyed watching footy, just playing. Giggs scored a goal in the 90-91 season against Tottenham, nutmegged 2 defenders and then the keeper that as a kid I thought was the best shit ever.
I would have thought you’d spend big this summer. I wouldn’t mind Sancho at United, I’ve only really seen highlights but Uniteds thing at the mo is a need to add players that can produce a final ball. I worry it won’t take long til Fernandes is marked out of games. Since my team are hoping to pinch 4th place which Chelsea occupy, I read a stat the other day that was shocking. United have had 8 chances to gain ground on Chelsea this season but every time that Chelsea drop points, United also drop points! It’s been an aggravating season for United, I hope for a small bit of consistency before the season ends!

This is my concern too. Fernandes has been fantastic but I wonder if teams will be able to shut him, and with him United's creativity, down by marking him out of the game. This is what happened a lot with Pogba. United relied so much on their game going through him that teams focused on neutralising him and it left United toothless. Fernandes could be even more susceptible to this as he doesn't have the physical element Pogba does.
Dark Rider
Member
Speaking of Pogba, can United please keep him? He is willing to suck the life out of any team and kill their performance whenever he's not happy for whatever reason. I don't like that kind of unprofessional attitude.
This is why I was fine with us selling the likes of Özil and Di María while the other teams were saying we were out of our minds. thanks papa Flo
