Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] We got this one folks, I feel it. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!!
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] kaka with an insane hat trick! you heard it here first! shut down guardado and we got this!
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] I've felt it since 91 , makes no difference Suckafree: Guardado and Felipe are both out, we should win this..
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Those two players are Deportivo's main players and I think they'll miss them more than we'll miss Ronaldo & Higuain tbh. This is it!!
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] i'll take a scrappy win anyday, but i hope the scoreline really emphasizes something spectacular. To really give the curse a nice boot up the ass.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Like I've said, we lose this and we can pretty much say goodbye to la liga title. Of course anything can happen, but we better win this game . It's time for Kaka and Benzema to setp up. Hopefully we'll see something like this Ramos-Albiol-Arbeloa-Marcelo --------Xabi-----Lass----- -----Guti--------Granero--- -----------Kaka--------- --------Benzema--------
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] dare i say it...this is our year!! lol
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Would have been nice if Higuain could make an early comeback.... that or RFEF overturn the red card.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] The game will be played on Saturday, the 30th at 10 pm CET It’s going to be a tough one. There is no doubt in my mind that Farsa will pick up 3 points in Gijon, so we need to win to keep up with them.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] It's REALLY time for Benzema and Kaka to show some talent..maybe not a super-win, given the atmosphere, but at least a 0-1 and a lot of trouble for their defense.We really can't afford an 8 point gap go go Gijon imo
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] I am more worried about Kaka then Benzema. Benzema looked like a beast this pre-season, I think it is genuinally down to form and a lack of confidence. Kaka on the other hand, god knows what is wrong with him. Even in the Confederations Cup, I would praise his movement but he kept loseing the ball when he tried a run and his shooting and passing was poor. When he started here, his first couple of games people said he had settled. But then his movement got poor and he just literally does nothing. Also hate the way we are playing shit again.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Subbed, nice thread starter. No predictions, just want a win and no more injuries. Garay's return is paramount, hope he makes it.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] No matter how we win, we have to win.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Plain and simple. I just hope the psychological block of never having won at Riazor in almost 2 decades doesn't affect our team.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Well MP has won at the Riazor. Kaka, Benz, Xabi, Lass, Garay and Albiol haven't played for us at the Riazor, so I would hope that there wouldn't be any psychological blocks.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Don't they have a Copa game against Sevilla this week? Hope they wear themselves out. I want to see a win at The Riazor in my lifetime.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] Good thing guardado is out, he makes us look bad every year... And I don't know, we have no ronaldo, going to a place where we haven't won in a long time... What about garay? is he out? Honestly ronaldo makes such a big difference, you can't replace him with granero or raul. Against malaga I could say with confidence that we will win, against deportivo I think it can go either way. Just watch out for their headers!
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] I wouldn't count on Kaka showing anything... Benzema on the other hand can score some nice goals if he gets the ball in a good position. I'm desperate to see a link between Guti and Kaka like they scored in albania. Kaka will probably have as much effect as a ball boy on the pitch... (just my opinion).
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] I can't edit my posts but I meant to say a link between Guti and Benzema...
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] i think your latter point is linked to your first.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] They lost 0:3 at home. I doubt they will line up anybody from the first team for the second leg game.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] DC reports that Velayous has been called up for training today and he could feature for the depor game.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] It's risky to play a canterano in such an important game.
Re: Deportivo La Coruna vs Real Madrid | Liga BBVA | Matchday 20 | 31/01/10 [R] I believe Velayos was called only to fill in for training.
