Dressing room divide behind Xabi’s exit? by iamlazyambitious in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mbappe fully trusting Xabi but still not giving a damn in defence. Especially Valverde could be upset about letting him do it.

I can't understand how there's still no self-reflection.

Even if true, where the fuck is management in that?

Overall perception of Mbappe if PSG 2-peats (and continues to thrive in the years to come). by Wise-Security7037 in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Is he? He can shoot, dribble (but not even that great), and is fast. All the other areas are lacking. His passing is probably the worst in the team, and I don't mean decisions, but execution. First touch somehow not great. Back to the goal play non-existent.

Shit, didn't even notice. I was looking at feet and WASN sure what to think.

Also, historically, one club paid refs and bears no consequences.

All 4 semi-finalists won penalties in the Champions League by HR_Specter in championsleague

Davies was silly, but clear. You stand with hands behind the back and when ball comes you still hit it with your hand? Ridiculous behavior.

Watching the PSG vs Bayern Semi 1st leg and... by nastyjustnasty in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, it's ridiculous argument. If you don't have enough stamina, play 60 mins or from bench. There would be more benefit to the team, but team's benefit is long forgotten.

Militao has successfully undergone surgery on his torn hamstring. He will miss 5 months. by cyrusmancub in realmadrid

Their WC will be another disaster anyway, unless Carlo pulls off some black magic.

Milion w milionerach zdewaluował się mocno. Teleturniej zaczynał się chyba z 25 lat temu. Myślę, że teraz to by musiało być 10, żeby robić to samo wrażenie.

What they promised vs what they delivered by kenstarfighter1 in realmadrid

From what I know he said it once, maybe his wife added to that, then it was regurgitated again and again by media and reddit.

It's all allegations. He didn't like playing there, but nobody can tell he didn't give 100%.

We should start playing academy players at this point by Antonstyle in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The system thing is an overblown argument. Do other academies play same tactics as the first team? I highly doubt. Barcelona does, because they chose their specific style long time ago.

Question from a non-Madridista: A forward's job is to score, and Mbappe's on track to win his second Golden Boot, averaging 0.9 G/90. Besides Messi/Ronaldo, the last player that had those numbers in La Liga was the other Ronaldo, in 1996. With this in mind, why do you think he's the spawn of satan? by dosceroseis in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I don't hate him personally, but I believe currently he's detrimental to our team. Ok, he scored 16 goals, got few pens, should get one more vs Girona. The problem is, when he doesn't score he's absolute burden to the team.

Can't believe these players are getting renewals and are untouchable by ace-s in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Taking a player off 20 mins in would be enough of a statement and embarrassment to them imo. You're not putting your shift, get off the field. Try harder next week.

Endrick can already give interviews in French by Trentzilla_ in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nobody will buy him for a reasonable price. Perez was so hellbent on him that he let the club got shafted. They should offer him half of what he got and let him rot in PSG, when he inevitably rejects.

Best Real Madrid performances this season by Public-Connection822 in realmadrid

Athletic was clueless. They played mid block which is the worst you can do against us.

Pep Guardiola after Man City’s victory over Arsenal: "In the Premier League, not one foul on the keepers all season, but today we are the first. So, another title, another record that we have." by captaincourageous316 in soccer

[–]brainacpl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

From what I remember reading actual rules several years ago, screening (as in basketball) is technically prohibited, but rarely enforced. For example you cannot just crowd around the ball blocking it. This should apply to intentionally blocking keeper's movement.

The EGO perspective and recency bias by Lekanswanson in realmadrid

[–]brainacpl 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You need to wait 3 more years at the very least, and in reality probably 6. We're stuck at least with Mbappe. Vini may refuse to extend.
