BlueJewel 56 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I hope Rafa finds a way to win this match but it's looking very unlikely. Over the weekend Mourinho was under a lot of pressure at Real Madrid, after his side lost further grounds to league leaders Barcelona following their loss to Beits. Mourinho did something that was truly amazing, he offered to come out 10 minutes before his players would warm up to receive the boos and jeers he deserved but begged the fans to cheer the team to victory against their fiercest local rivals, surprisingly he received cheers from the fans.Benitez is the exact opposite of Mourinho, he fails to acknowledge the fact that the fans have a right to air their displeasures. He fails to protect his players, making it hard for the players to "die" for the manager. He was totally wrong to blame the creative midfielders in public for being responsible for Torres' lack of goals. The team looks deflated, Benitez' man management and fans relation skills have been called into serious question once again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,142 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Most probable scenario: Shakhtar beat Juve and we draw at home and Rafa gets sacked in the morning..That would be a total pisstake. The way I would always have an agenda against Rafa would be crazy, I think I would catch a case haha. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
calculatingInfinity 1,472 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Rafa will finally get his first victory, Nordshitland are shit on a whole other scale than Chelsea atm, especially since their only good defender is injured for at least the rest of the year.

Laylabelle 9,535 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 We have to make sure we win... It will be the most stupid thing in the world if we turn up not giving a crap because we are probably out, then Shakhtar turn over JUVE, and we don't qualify because we dont beat nordsjaelland...GET THE 3 POINTS AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS.Exactly Im not fussed so much if we go out as long as its due to the other result and not a fuck up from us.I want a performance to be proud of that you think 'hmm maybe things are turning' not a 'well they clearly didnt give a crap' onThink Shakhtar have a player missing due to what happened in the other game..not sure who though.And Nords werent exactly a push over in that one they gave them a good go so dont expect a run around espically way we're playing.They'll no doubt score first and after about 10 chances from us and spend about 2 minutes running around clueless which Rafa waves his hands about to get across god knows what Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 Adriano, scored an immoral goal and got banned.And Marchisio will be suspended for Juventus too by the way. Have picked up 3 yellow cards in CL.As for Adriano, he isn't Shakhtar's top scorer at all despite being the main striker. Mkhitaryan and Teixeira have scored way more than him this season.

Jase 43,479 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 (edited) @, since you are the stats man, what is the record for Shak vs Juve?Even H2H record - P3 W1 D1 L1That win and defeat for Juventus came in the UEFA Cup all the way back in 1976. And of course, they drew 1-1 back in October in the CL. Edited December 3, 2012 by BluesMaster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 I am also going to this one... I'll be honest, im not feeling my usual excitement about going to see the boys live, but hopefully it will be the game we can get back in winning ways, and it will be a very memorable night if somehow the impossible happenned and we qualified.

Ollie 4,400 Posted December 2, 2012 Share Posted December 2, 2012 It about time we comprehensively thumped someone like we did a few times in 2010. This team is better than that team if we get it all together. I just want to see us fuck someone up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
