What a game
Zaza is a moron. No wonder he failed in the PL.
Zaza and Benzema 
What a game!
Why is Zaza wearing a sports bra?
2-2 FT. What a game! Asensio was just superb!
Great game. Even better result.
That was the perfect final game to watch before the international break. Now to be disappointed by England.
What a cracking game that was. I love the Premier League. I love Serie A. I love La Liga.
Real-Valencia games are always great fun to watch.
Valencia, while not winning often, tend to get a lot of draws at the Bernabeu.

You think you can pip Real Sociedad to the title?
Is asensio for 5 million going to go down as the best value transfer of all time?
Madrid must hope that Zidane gets the hint and targets another center back. Where was the Vallejo kid? Casemiro at fault for the first goal, but can't really blame him, haven't heard of him playing CB before. Still, what Benzema wasted was just ridiculous.
Well that was fun
Thought Modric was a bit naff tonight. In fact the only Madrid players who played well were Casemiro and Asensio.

Looks like Madrid missed Ronaldo today.
Real throwing away the league on the 2nd matchday of the season at home.
Good stuff.
Good stuff.
Well if Benzema is the one all the chances fall to, they'll always miss Ronaldo.
We can win the title. Last season they won games like this one, and Barca lost them.
Pretty good game for neutrals I suppose but it was painful to watch us creating so many good chances and playing almost the entire time on their side only to Benzema waste so many chances. So if we didn't win was due to pure bad finishing but we should be ok as this was also a good game for Valencia and I wouldn't expect the majority of teams playing us like too often. 
Hope Barcelona visit soon Anoeta.

Great team but they still depend way too much on Ronaldo to secure wins on though games. The only reason why Benz managed to stay this long in RM is because he does link really well with Ronaldo. Bar that he is borderline useless.
Remember when people were claiming that Bale could be as good as Ronaldo (some said he almost was) and he would be the one replacing him in RM ? Fun times
Positive note: Asensio .. what a player. I expect great things from him in the future

And in all fairness, a minimum of composure would see Valencia win that. A couple of those counter attacks had them in absolutely acres of space. You should be thanking Zaza for that.Pretty good game for neutrals I suppose but it was painful to watch us creating so many good chances and playing almost the entire time on their side only to Benzema waste so many chances.

Nah I don't buy it. Sociedad are too strong
I don't know if you realized but I was joking in my post
haha always love it when madrid dont win and their spoilt fans start waving their underpants or whatever it is
Wouldn't be surprised if Madrid lose more points in the next 2 games. Cristiano is 50% of this team's goal threat especially in the tough games and Asensio surely can't keep scoring screamers every match.
Yeah I've never seen so many counterattacks wasted. Even we would've scored one of those
Been laughing histerically for the last half hour
Been saying this for a while, but we absolutely need another CB. Vallejo is green and injury prone, Varane is injury prone, and Nacho is ok as 4th choice but can't be playing as much as he did last season there
Much needed reality check overall. This is good. Everything's ok. We need to realize we're not the second coming of 1970 Brazil.
Also, why is it that kondogbia and murillo looked like right donkeys at inter but as soon as they leave they look like good players?!?! And against us of all teams

Bit premature assumption. Barcelona ain't looking as inconsistent as years before.
Lionel says Hello.
It wasn't like that, we had plenty of chances way before that, more than those counter by them, and I'm talking about not letting the game go to that instance where it was back and forward, even then Benzema has another good chance but then they keepr made a good save.
Dry your eyes, mate. There's always next season.
How can you say you need more CBs when you have Ramos, Varane, Pepe and Fernandez? Oh right pepe left hehe hope that doesnt come back to haunt youBeen laughing histerically for the last half hour

Kondogbia is a very sound CB btw, not surprised how he played.
I'm just saying Valencia had every opportunity to win that match. One good final ball would see them 2 vs the GK on at least three separate occasions.
I'm aware you had some astonishing chances, but in gambling for the win (and even at 1-2) Valencia could and should have sealed it as well.
Adult transfer ffs. What a stupid comment.
I'm done with Benzema, he needs to fecking go.
I think that goes to Jon Walters no?
Madrid have a problem in the attack now. The only consistent goal scorer in the team currently is Ronaldo, with Asensio second with his shooting. Isco is a great player but not consistent goal scorer, Benzema is a crap finisher and Bale is past it.
Last season Zidane was able to rest Ronaldo and keep him in form for the tougher games depending on Morata and James. This season and with this rate he'll be forced to play Ronaldo all the time resulting in his exhaustion and this will be a massive problem by the end stage of the season.
4 days remaining in the market. Madrid should bring a striker ASAP because entering the season without a striker easing the burden from Ronaldo will affect the team coming the crucial last months of the season.
Their bench was their strongest point last season and the reason they could go on for both CL and La Liga. They season they look like as if they lost the depth somewhat in the attack.
This beside, they're still very, very strong in creating billions of chances each match and in another day they could have won 5-2. If Ronlado played today he might have scored a hattrick.

You guys really should be all over this Mbappe deal. With his finishing, you'd have comfortably won today.
Take that back. Now.
Agreed. I hope we can still get him, Lewandowski or another striker in.
