Caaemiro :drool: we need to convert him into a striker permanently for the rest of the season :lol:

Also, Benzema, even at 50% :drool: :drool: :drool:

Vini seems to be participating less and less but with more sense in his decisions.
Today he gave half a goal to Benzema. Rodrygo's game can be justified by his months without playing but Asensio's ... opportunity after opportunity and always irrelevant. That boy has no blood in his veins.
Maybe I sound super grumpy but I didn't like the game at all.
Now to twitter Madrid to read the "oficialistas" all week about that baby penalty and about courage and gallantry. They can put their courage deep inside their ass
He needs to be what Llorente turned into :lol:
I would not have imagined that change in his game, being so important offensively.

Perfect result for Barcelona. Dropped points for their title rivals. Suddenly, their title hopes comes alive but Atletico Madrid still has one game in hand. Atletico Madrid just cannot seem to beat Real Madrid anymore. Their last win against them was 5 years ago.

Who's his coach pick then or is he sticking with Koeman?

If we win the league Koeman stays, but I know Laporta wants Nagelsmann
Oh that would be intriguing.

Stay tuned.......

In fairness Koeman took over a difficult situation and done better than I expected so think he deserves to start next season and make a few more signings although Messi void will be difficult for any coach to counter in short term.

If we can at least win Copa Del Rey I'd like for Koeman to stay. The 3-5-2 has been a brilliant adjustment and like you said, Koeman (knowingly) came in to a terrible situation for the club and hardly any signings since there was no money. It would be harsh to let him go barring a disastrous finish to La Liga (like ending up 4th) and losing the CDR final with a poor display.

This is so such a painful season to watch and I think Atletico is going to win like last time they did on the merit on being less shit than Barcelona and Real Madrid.

Best news since 2015
This time he does not have a Ronaldinho, a Messi at the Masía or a Guardiola, however I understand your happiness.
As a Madrid fan, he was the option that I liked the least, especially because of his charisma and because he's quite a fighter. He'll give a bit of spice to the Madrid-Barcelona fight.
I imagine that the mes que un club, Cruyffism and Masía will be the "philosophical" bases.
We will see how his economic team is doing and if he can bring some top transfer.
Xavi or Ten Hag ?, who do you prefer?, Or both?
Edit: I just read that you said about Naggelsman.He fits in the profile too

I think the „Messi void“ is now on hold. He will stay but obviously decline somewhat

Really? He's what 3 months off being on free transfer and I haven't read any reports about him being in serious discussions about new deal unless it was just on hold with the elections.

Unless he dosen't want to leave until he plays his final game at Camp Nou infront of 90k.

I’d prefer Ten Hag. I think xavi has potential but if Messi does come back then Barca are going to build a little more short term to see if they can sneak a CL before he retires (as unlikely as us winning a CL within 2-3 years is). But xavi could just as easily become another Pirlo who I think was a bad move for Ronaldo’s twilight years in the hunt for a CL. Ten Hag was awfully close to a CL final and right now we need a more experienced manager although xavi seems to have done well so far.

Having said all that, I do think Koeman deserves another season barring an insane implosion down the stretch.

And Laporta won’t be as good as the first time around but as long as he doesn’t get arrested or alienate the players it’ll already be an improvement :lol:

Laporta is meeting with Messi this week to discuss contract renewal but I still think Messi doesn’t decide until the end of the season. If he really wants one last CL he may have to go elsewhere unfortunately.

Seems Laporta's first big move is Alemany as director of football operations

Good move

:lol: I have to admit that wrote "Cristiano Madrid" in google and checked 7 pages.
I finished in fichajes.net and goldigital.
I even tried to find clues in Georgina's instagram.
And after that the galácticos documentary just killed me :lol:

I don't know if it's because of his name but Raúl Guti seems to be everywhere.
Mistake of Varane in the goal and another half goal from Vini that Karim couldn't score

Honest question, is Zidane even under pressure, in danger, at all? Will he be allowed to also manage this team next season?

Benzema winner. Ofcourse. Madrid are an utterly awful team and yet somehow in the title race.
