Just the two of them,it will be a disaster but with Matic behind them, it should be able to work. Let Ramires bomb forward like Matuidi and fabregas sit deeper and play as passer.

I think it is just simply because Pepe is 33. IMO there is no way RM will sell varane unless we pay crazy amount of money (Di Maria case)

Are you talking about the same manager who tried 200 different formations, playing Rooney in midfield and Di maria as striker Imo Van Gaal has done ok, he spent tons of money.He bought two fb (not sure what blind is but let's just say he is a fullback),1 Center back, 1 CM, 1 winger and 1 striker without selling any major player. No european football, lost in capital cup, lost in fa cup.

Very good post. We got a very healthy profit from the sale of Luiz, mata, kdb and lukaku . I think you can easily argue none of their value were enhanced by Mourinho. Unless you have been a manager for a team for like 10 years or so ala Wenger, net spending is not a good barometer Imo this season Mou had done ok. -I expect us to compete for championship in epl, we are on course of winning it. He has done extremely well. Of course you can say our rival are just so bad this season. -I don't put too much value on capital cup. But it is a trophy. -Disappointing UCL exit. We were outplayed twice by Psg and imo Mou was outcoached by blanc

I disagree. I think Neymar is a better fit for barca. Barca has one player who want the ball on his feet all the time in Messi.

Depending on who they sign next season.

Thoughts he is a good dribbler but he just do step over which is absolutely useless

Kane is such a strange player, I am still not sure what he is really good at

How in the heck Casillas is still Spain no 1 GK

Regarding Oscar, imo he is a very tidy player. Not the most technically gifted, defensively brilliant and his movement is pretty good. It is unfair to expect him to suddenly turn into an ozil/silva type player who is just much more gifted technically. The problem is not oscar but for some reason out of our 3 attacking midfielder, we can only expect hazard one to produce something offensively. I am still not sure is this personnel problem or tactical problem. Is it because they are asked to work so hard defensively that they cannot attack or they are just inherently not that kind of player. We have use schurlle,cuardado, willian , and oscar in these positions and none of them can produce consistent end product.

The question is who is their next shiny toy and at the moment the only player that can be considered as shiny for RM is Hazard

I think Guardiola is going to be City next manager

That will make playing FM so much harder

His first touch was brilliant

For some reason I really hate RM CB pairing.

Brilliant juan

Wow that is another red card

Crazy 1 minute in red card.

Maybe Bale but definitely Suarez. Last season Suarez had arguably one of the best season I have seen in EPL. 31 goals, 0 penaties, 12 assist, If I am not wrong he led the league in clear cut chances created also.

PSG v. Barca again, Madrid derby again. They should enact a rule that teams should not be drawn together if they have faced each other in the last 2 years

completely agree with your assessment of rakitic. He was fantastic yesterday, keep making run into spaces that Messi left.

I don't really care who go through. I just want to see different and good game.

We have bayern v. Barca 2 years ago n real Madrid v. Atletico every year I personally want something different. Barca v. Juve Bayern v. Atletico Real v. Psg Monaco v. Porto

Completely agree. I really hope hazard can develop like Messi. I remembering the beginning Messi was known only as dribbler. Then he developed into a fantastic Passer,and goal scorer. I don't think hazard will ever be goal getter but I think if he can be a world class Passer + dribbler I will be more than happy.

Did you see the other penalty. Horrible. No run up. Ridiculous
