ECHO Comment: "Fears of Witch-hunt Against Liverpool FC" part 3

It’s dependent on injuries. Modric Kroos and Casemiro are still the best midfield in the world, Ramos is still the best CB, Benzema still a brilliant number 9. If they can get that spine out then no problem. If most of them are missing then the replacements at the moment aren’t great at all. They’ve sold a lot of the Kovacic James Ceballos Morata Reguilon squad depth that they used to have.
Over two legs Madrid wont lose this.

Them and Bayern were the two I wanted to see Liverpool get. Two vastly experienced European Cup competitors to give Liverpool no advantage, and both have right now way better players to call upon. You can bank on Hazard being back for those games too.
 

I probably agree with you, but this is the worst Madrid side in about 15 years. Would be quite embarrassing to lose to them for Liverpoola greatest ever team.

Disappointed they will avoid at least 2 of PSG, City, Bayern as well as Juventus and Atletico, who would have all wiped the floor with them.

I suspect even Dortmund would with Haaland and co. Another fortunate draw.
Porto and probably Dortmund would have fallen to Liverpool over two legs.

Madrid wont win La Liga; they'll see Liverpool and Chelsea as easy meat to chew through and get into another final. They can now see glory on the horizon.
 

Oh god, they've got to face the 2nd* most villainous footballer of all time, Sergio 'shoulder mangler' Ramos!


The BBC website has already mentioned it. The fake rivalry now has a 'basis' and the usual media suspects will beat the revenge mission drum. As per.

*1st is obviously Jordan 'not a kneely man' Pickford.

imagine when he scores the goal that knocks them out and takes his shirt off, to reveal Pickford's shirt underneath

Yeah Madrid and Bayern have getting to champions league finals ingrained in their clubs, it’s what they’re about. I fancy them even more than a red hot Mbappe led PSG to dump them out because it’s Real Madrid, it’s what they do.
 

I dont think I bought that much into the 'Spurs will win it' story. I probabaly hoped they would and said I faniced them to, but Spurs are Spurs: the ultimate cowards of English football. To compare them with Madrid is preposterous.
In all fairness you didnt, but you kept saying the rs wouldnt get through each round:(. I wont be happy until they are out. Said it before, they were a poor side in 05 and look what happened:(

Madrid will crish them.

Just look at that Liverpool team and tell me you think that approaches even the 2005 winning team.

They're 'kin rank.

Exactly. PSG can be flakey.

In any case, is there any reason to doubt that the trophy wont ultimately be heading back to Bavaria again? Not for me.
