Chicharito works so much harder off the ball than Ronaldo.
La Liga - 2014/15

In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
His attitude is brilliant. Unless he's really unhappy he's always buzzing about the pitch.
Oh dear Ronaldo.
Cruel deflection 
James, with a little fortune and it's 2-3
Ronaldo always looks pissed when anyone else scores
Goooooool James! Great pass by Ronaldo.
Great game to watch after us and then Chelsea
Another assist
He's not going to sleep well if he doesn't get his name on the scoresheet with all these goals, that's for sure.
James shouldn't have celebrated that goal though.
I don't think you'll see an easier pass. Anyway hard luck celta. James has played really well
madrid have been getting so many lucky breaks since 2014
God forbid Henry see's Rodriguez celebrating that.
Would annoy me as a fan tbh,but I guess he gets a pass as a freak of nature.
Just because he looked pissed when not scoring?
James 3 goals and 3 assists in 4 league games since returning from injury.
Is this league a joke? I know no one cares about defense but I've never seen a team as open as Celta today.
Best goal so far.
Tbf, only Rayo and Celta play open like this.
His attitude when anyone else scores and he doesn't generally stinks, he has been doing it for a few years now - so it's not like I'm exaggerating, he does it a lot, as a fan it'd irk me I don't care who you are, you shouldnt act like that - football is a team game, but like I said "freak of nature",so if anyone has the right to do it, it's him.
Yeah, looked better on first viewing than it actually was.
Why? That "openness" is the only reason they've scored 2 goals so far (even taking the lead initially)... they're not scared of going at RM instead of sitting back. They did the same against Barça and beat them 1-0 at Camp Nou... and lost narrowly 0-1 to a Mathieu header on a set-piece at home. Some "joke"...
He celebrated and looked happy enough when Hernandez scored
Hasn't Hernandez been banned from celebrating his own goals?He celebrated and looked happy enough when Hernandez scored
Fair point.
Not enough love for the great work in the build-up to that goal... Isco

I was thinking about this while watching the match...you can flip it and ask whether the PL is a joke, I can bet no PL team would be as assured on the ball and as crisp with their passing vs Real Madrid.
It was a pleasure to watch not just because the defences sucked but because both sides played short quick passes into feet, always looking forwards, triangles, great runs... Antonio Valencia's play is like a microcosm of the entire PL. Slow, ponderous, safety first, joyless.
What the hell was Chicharito playing at there? Real Madrid have the ball in the Celta box and he stops to complain to the referee. Idiot.
Better (for the neutral) that they play open and lose 4-2 than park the bus only to end up with a 1-0 loss
Isco mimicking Iniesta even in his finishing.
Real need a trophyless season, they are crawling right now, they need a little dose of reality, a CL win or a league title might make it seem like they aren't that bad.
How is that not a penalty??
What a fecking disgrace.
What a fecking disgrace.
Stonewall pen.
That looked like a clear pen for Celta. Kroos didn't get the ball at all.
Larrivey plays with a strange hat
What happens when GD doesn't count. I think it's great. Might as well have a go rather than shut up shop and still lose at the end.
It's for a head injury
