Still no red but they won't all survive 30 more minutes of this

Whoever won the game
Great game to watch with few technical mistakes on both ends

Just two extra times and 12 goals(so far!) in the last 2 madrid derbies in the span of a week :lol:

This one had a lot more slapstick though :drool:

Could have easily been a pen too. Class not to fall down and then scoring that

The idea of RM somehow not needing Mbappé while they sub in Joselu and Diaz when they need goals is wild

They are drained, all gassed. Bummer, wasn’t our greatest game but think we did better than Atletico but poor finishing and silly mistakes at the back.

Yeah, he looks very dodgy. Madrid have so much talent in midfield and up front. With Lunin and the defence, it's something they could improve

We need new players, not Mbappe in particular.

Wasted our energy on the rather meaningless super cup, Atletico winning the games that mattered the most.

You can only have one French midfielder in your defense at a time

We have looked tired for some time now tbh. Should send some players on a 2 week holiday. Jude and Fede in particular have been run to the ground, which is a thing with an Ancelotti team.

Think Jude played decent, especially first half.

Though, i think it is clear that his goal sprees is coming to an end, teams are figuring out the forward runs he makes.

Jude was our best player, not saying he was bad or anything. Just that he won’t have anything left to give in a month or two if he keeps this up. Same for Fede and Rodrygo.

He was unlucky to not score the last two games, both times his effort was cleared from the line. Just a rough patch and he still does great work.

Upside is less games. Bummer it had to be against Atletico, I’d rather we lost to that team from the third division.

Griezmann, if Atleti could win anything of note, would be right up there in the Balland'or voting. He's been absolutely incredible since the start of 2023.

Vinicius showed the very worst version of himself in this game. He was awful. I thought Bellingham was excellent.

Madrid relies on individualities to win games, they don't play good football, so of course they need Mbappe.

I'm not impressed by Atletico. Inter should be favorites in the CL.

No, he's just no longer finishing at never seen before rates

It was always going to happen

I'd rather beat Barcelona every single time we play them. :lol:

Yeah, really fancy him as a player is a shame he ended up playing for Atlético instead of us.

:lol:

So another Carlo implosion? This explains his poor league record I think. Refusal to rotate and do proper squad management. Some of these players have played way too much and shouldn’t be starting this game to begin with. Think that has been the main reason for the slump we are in. Players are gassed.

I'm not sure how this is Carlo's fault though, Perez refused to give him a proper striker in the summer, and refuses to give him new defenders despite the injury crisis at the back, he has been set up to fail.

I wouldn’t blame him for not winning the CL or anything. But there is something to be said about his rotation policy. Jude, Fede, Rodrygo have played way more than necessary. We’ve been poor and getting bailed out by VAR now :lol:

Have you thought about why Jude is playing all the time? Cause Perez didn't buy a proper striker, we rely on bellingham for the goals.

Having said that, ofcourse Almeria is a team we should always beat.
