Real Madrid vs Sporting Gijon Estadio: Santiago Bernabeu Date:Saturday 20th March 2010 Time: 20:00 CET, 14:00 ET VDV or Kaka? That is the question. ________________________________________________________________ Key Players: Xabi Alonso will be given time on the ball, which could be the key to unlocking Sporting's defence. de las Cuevas is perhaps the most technical of his teammates. ________________________________________________________________ What Happened Last Time [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Knftjwu7aLg"]YouTube- Sporting Gijón vs Real Madrid (0-0) Highlights[/ame] ________________________________________________________________ Injury Report ________________________________________________________________ Possible Starting Line-Up [LINEUP-4-4-2]Higuain,Ronaldo,VDV,Xabi,Lass,Granero,Marcelo,Ramos,Albiol,Arbeloa,Saint[/LINEUP-4-4-2] ________________________________________________________________ 12 "finals" left to play. Let's win this one in style.
Ok, players suspended anyone? Also, players that COULD be suspended for our next game should they be carded?
So, Ramos is out for this one? And Xabi would miss Getafe away if he gets carded in this one? Alonso better be careful.
We have home games against Atleti and Barca coming up. This game, or the Racing game cushioned between the 2 crunch games of the league, would be ideal for him to miss. I'm hoping he picks up a booking in this one; the law of averages, you know??
I think the games Alonso hasn't been booked would be quicker to count than the ones he's received one. He and Ramos are a safe bet for a booking every week, no matter who broadcasts the game
Benzema will come from the bench, so no raul! Benzema did some light training with the team a few days ago.
Subbed. ESPN? Finally! Lets see Gago get some time as sub, and start the long road back to some sort of relevance.
I hear Ricardo won't be ready for this one, contrary to what I had red previously. Be nice to see Benzema back, and I agree, Alonso is a dead cert to pick up a yellow. I just hope he doesn't over do it in his quest for the yellow, that he then goes and receives a straight red .
A handball should do the trick quite nicely for Alonso methinks I'm also interested to see Benzema return, let's see how he responds...
Extra points for not making it excruciatingly obviously. P.s I missed an 'a' out in a word by mistake, I'm not really that dumb. You know, just putting that out there .
Shouldn't be too difficult, pick up a win here and then do it against Getafe. I like the 4-2-2-2 formation: Iker - Arbeloa, Albiol, Garay, M. Alonso/Opare - Lass, Alonso - VdV, Marcelo - Higuain, Ronaldo. Karim unlikely to start though, since he just got back, and I think Ramos is suspended. What do you lot think of the LB back options?
It's about time! I'm not complaining but I love how they always show us beating up a team at the bottom of the table (Xerez, Zaragosa, etc) I hope they show El Classico
Might not be the right place to ask..Is there any place I an see our players card(yelow/red) statistics???
While it might be the first time you mentioned Opare, it's not the first time you've spoken out of your ass so surely you can understand our rage.
