In a specific environment yes. He would totally fail here tho.

[Johnnyeye 7,557]

you just gotta give props to Real on the way they get it done time and time again when it matters most and when the stakes are high, no team comes close to them in clutch time, this is why they are the most decorated club in the world. Their recruitment policy and winning culture is amazing. 15 CL titles is fucking insane, 6 in the last 10 years

Spell check 😜

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

I wonder how long it will take for Kendrick to not automatically spell check fix though.

 

It took a second for Vinicius not to turn into Vicious on my phone 😮‍💨

their only truly shit buy in last 15 seasons was Eden (thanks!)

and we get £5m from that sale for them winning the CL even though Eden is retired, lolol

so we end up getting £141m for him in toto

robbery!

I backed corners plus Vini to score anytime.

Maatsen lost carvajal for the first and served them the 2nd on a silver plate. Absolute liability, single-handedly lost them the CL. It is often when stakes are high that is becomes clear who is the weakest link. Reminds me of karius 

I don't blame him for the set piece, second one okay. He was overall very good, if anything his price went up.

That Adeyemi is a young fool.
He should have cut the ball to the right and chip it over Tibot.
If it was Pulisic he would have scored that.

When you play a pass like (carbon copy of that caicedo one last year )that ,  then you are not overall good .

RM win one champions league in three in their bad seasons.

If Pulisic was playing for that Dortmund side he would have been on the bench when that chance was created so it wouldn't have happened.

that bad pass for the 2nd makes them buying him less likely

he will be a big scapegoat

will be remembered for it the rest of his career unfortunately and he is never going to win the CL to make up for it

thats the weak spot of Adeyemi's game, he lacks composure in the end

all the speed in the world but absolutely not (so far) a ruthless finisher
