Real Madrid have looked horrendous this whole match. In fact, they've looked terrible nearly each time I've seen them this season. It seems as though they're so used to 95% of opponents being terrified of them and bending over that when a team of equal quality takes the game to them they can't take it.

City haven't even been their best and could've score 4-5 here.

Over to Lyon match. Clear penalty on Juventus Urin. Nothing given. Another corrupted ref

[Magic Lamps 11,677]

Juve only gameplan under Sarri is waiting for penaldo flukes. Deservedly punished 

[Vesper 29,197]

Sarri is so so out

Fancy City to win it all if Bayern aren't in tip top form.

I still think Bayern take them out

their back 4 are too brittle against that massive firepower

The corner flag had more touches of the ball than Hazard in the second half.

It looks to me like this Juventus team and Sarri need some reinforcements. An excellent Regista in Jorginho to control the tempo and play quick passes and a ball playing PK specialist in Kepa would do them wonders.

Hope he survives. We need to sell Jorgi to Juventus

They weren't that bad. Ronaldo could have scored 5 goals if he was a little bit sharper.

Mind this was vs the 7th best team of the 5th best league in Europe and Lyon could have scored a couple more themselves, should have gotten one more pen. Ronaldo and Juve time is up.

How bloody overrated is varane. World class my ass. 

If we were to buy him and make him spear head our defence, he will look worse than rudi.

On the other hand, ramos' quality can't be overstated.

I have watched him inmasive depth for ages

and that was by far the worst game I have ever seen him have

it was like it was not even him

he has been an utterly superb CB for just ages

he looked  worse than AC tonight

btw way, as you know

I am of the opinion that Rudiger is by far our best CB, and whilst he has a rough post injury spell for months, he will recover his form

AC (pussyklaat) and Zouma (agility and ball skills of a drunken hippo) are both pure shite and will never be effective Chels CB's IMHO

Funny you said that, even when they won ucl back to back, they dont look good but they have many, in basketball term clutch player, such as ronaldo, ramos which is important in knockout competition.

Real Madrid vs Ajax had the same story and performance too. Basically anytime I see him without Ramos, he looks like a fish out of water. 

Think he is technically solid (tbf, so is AC), but has a poor mental fortitude. 

Definitely not world class.

Really have to question your definition of world class. If Varane is not world class, no one is. He has been a magnificent CB for ages, and dominated at the WC with no Ramos.

Overall the standards in defending has gone way down. Not so long ago you had Vidic Ferdinand Puyol Terry Cavalio Maldini etc etc....they could pass, they could jump, they could organize their defence, could score and most of all could bloody defend. Now they need their hands held like little children. Todays defenders aint got shit on those that came before them.
