edetarod 2,155 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 i'm not too confident about this one, juve have all the right attributes to hurt us (good defence, great midfield...).nonetheless every home game must be won in this group if we want to progress.

Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 According to the Madrid manager, he made sure the double pivot of Mikel and Lampard were constantly under pressure so they could not balance the play and kept giving away possession, since RDM will certainly play both of them, expect another thrashing.

dumps 284 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Genuinely a tough game and a real test for RDM with this new team. Will be very interested to see the starting 11.... huge game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going to be a horrible time, just wait till we play Arsenal... oh you just wait, there counter attack will fucking rape us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Land 331 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Pirlo,Vidal and Marchisio will completely destroy our midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesman2610 1,417 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 Possibility of happening = 99.9%Exactly he showed no imagination with his starting XI today against QPR hardly a nightmare of a team player for player...Juve is a team that went undeafeated in Serie A last year hes going to go with defensive set up for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Land 331 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 RDM will play the usual lineup,the only possible modification is bertrand instead of ramires,both useless since juve attacks mainly through Pirlogood tactician:4-3-3,RDM:4-2-3-1 with defensive winger,or 2 against some random teams Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted September 16, 2012 Share Posted September 16, 2012 RDM will again dust off the Bus, back it up and park it in front our goal no doubt. Mata and Hazard should almost definitely start which means we will have only one defensive winger (Thank God). So if we have to have one I hope its Bertrand.CechIvanovic Luiz Terry ColeMikel LampardHazard Mata BertrandTorresIs what I think we will see.CechIvanovic Luiz Terry ColeRamires MikelHazard Oscar MataSturridgeIs what I would like but of course won't get.Unlike the QPR game, this is a game I wouldn't mind a point in. Its like RDM mistook QPR for Juventus or something. One thing is for sure, we'll find out a lot after this game. Are we really that good? Is RDM going to stick with Defensive overkill? Looking forward to this game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted September 16, 2012 Author Share Posted September 16, 2012 Won't be surprised one bit if RDM plays a similar lineup like the one yesterday - Bertrand at LW & Ramires at RW - to counter Juventus's wingbacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would mean he has no intention of beating teams by outplaying/outfootballing them (which, whether some like it or not, is what we are striving to do) but rather nullify the crap out of them, hope to get lucky on a break and bore everyone in the process.
