Sheva.

We're actually challenging for the title, right up there from start to the end, and no falling away in November. Failure? ridiculous.

Benzema is verrry inconsistent. He can be alright today, and very bad the next. He's lucky to play for a team like Real Madrid, where he gets many chances to make up for his misses. Real will be so scary with a proper top striker.

He played behind Rooney against West Ham. But vs City, they used 4-3-3 so he was wide most of the time.

"He recovers the ball but in a very clean way, not with fouls in dangerous positions" Unlike Ramires.

This. No matter how big the bus, chances will still be created, but you need people in the right positions to convert. It's why Lamps should always play against these teams, and Schurrle instead of Willian/Oscar as he is the bigger goal threat.

Nah it's simple, they were getting destroyed by Barca before Mourinho got there and changed it (despite the humiliation he got in his first clasico) And now he's gone and they're back to normal losing ways.

Messi to the rescue. Best clasico in a while.

Neymar needs to wake up.

Sweet finish by Iniesta.

He adds balance to our trio behind the striker. It's always good when there's another player in the team looking to score, other than the striker. His movement is really good, and finishing is much better now.

We've won games against Liverpool, Utd, City and Arsenal with him in midfield, it's no coincidence. Midfield general.

Oh Arsene we love you. Great result, Arsenal doing what they do best. Schurrle our best player, shame about Eto'os injury.

YESSSSSSSSSSSSS

Luiz is a boss.

Wonderful.

Fuck

SCHURRRRLEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

ETO'OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Inevitably, 2 Spanish teams draw each other. Barca playing 2nd leg away makes that tie all the more interesting - given their shaky record away in CL in the past few seasons.

People tend to underrate or overrate the opposition massively. Hardly any middle-ground.

Not bad. Could have been better or much worse. We have a chance here, but containing Zlatan and Cavani is going to be a huge task.

Master Pirlo does it again.

Tbf Utd right now have a better team than we had in 2012, and the same level or better manager. It's just about luck and team spirit, 2 things they haven't had much of this season.

Bayern won't play Real so early. In semi's maybe, but would be lame now. I do want 2 Spanish teams to play each other though, so they don't have 3 in semi's.

Dayum, i doubt there's too many players than can rival him atm when it comes to long range goals.
