Good poll...ofc I woud like to see us on top but realistically I see us in semi finals which aint that bad..if we manage to win domestic league and cup..I would consider this a succesfull season
I'll say winners because regardless, this is Madrid, and we can turn it up on anyone in front of us. Plus, this is our competition.
the only way we can win the Champions league is if City get KO by another team like Bayern . we cant beat City they are way too good for us way too good . semi finals is the most realistic
I wouldn't say that Madrid couldn't win with a tough route. The team still has the best midfield in the world by far including the subs imho. That midfield can paint over a lot of the cracks on the team. As long the team has decent finishing and no major defensive blunders, the team should be top 3 favorites after City and Bayern.
In my 34 years of life, bayern have been a favorite almost every damn season and have won it 4 times, i just dont take them seriously to actually win it
If Jude wants to make a serious case to win the next Ballon d'Or, Real Madrid must win the CL. La Liga would not be enough. To be honest, Real Madrid is dependant on Jude now.
How or why would jude win the next balon de or? He aint winning the CL this year, and might not win the league. He couls core some 40 goals this seaosn and still not even be in the top 3. I seriously doubt thats one of his objectives this particular year. I wonder if and when Flo talked him into RM there was any mention of the fact that jude would be playing in a team without an elite #9 for at least a year?
I get it vut if jude xan realistically dream of the valon d or, we can realistically think of winning the CL and La Liga. I dont see it happening, and im ridiculously optimistic
Quarterfinals we should have Militao and Courtois back, maybe second leg of R16, so that makes me hopeful of progressing at least to the semis. Anything can happen in knockout ties though, especially with major injuries to either side. Clearly Perez decided to take a small L this year though and wait for you-know-who next year, so expectations have to be kept with that reality in mind, that we have no top striker.
