I think some of this listlessness is just Clasico hangover, I get that but 45 minutes is more than enough time to get their shit together so hopefully we'll wake up in the second half.
Terrible show for the boys so far. Everyone seems nervous, and almost no one seems focused. We need to concentrate, and be patient. You cannot play direct football with a team that defends that deep. Not without a poacher anyways.
on the goal, at that angle should lopez have his hands up in the air already, basically preventing anything from getting through with how big he is?
Mourinho managed to turn this team into one of the least watchable teams in Europe. He truly is the special one .
Yeah. After the game a couple weeks ago (I think it was the Valencia one where we scored 5) he was like "I have been getting a lot of criticism but I think that with this performance I have shut their mouths." In other news, Santi Solari analyzing our half on Sky Sports. Fascinating to hear him talk. We're not playing fast enough, and not compact enough.
yeah, mou should put the controller down these poor internationals are being wrecked by his button mashing
That is really terrible of Di Maria, the only way he will be able to 'shut' his critics' mouths this season is by single handedly sending this team to the CL final...I can't remember seeing such a contrast in form between two seasons like this from one of our players before. It was a pleasure seeing Solari on Sky Sports, he also did the analysis to the Classico on Thursday.
Higuain's 1st half is to worry about. Just 14 touches with the ball, no shots on or off target, 11 passes only 6 made it to the destination. Sami Khedira and Xabi Alonso with more attempts to score than Higuain. Still lighting it up Higuain
