Real Madrid v Atletico Madrid

[THFCSPURS19]

anyone hear souness just now? they were discussing madrid's weaknesses and he said the main one is modric, he then basically called him a nothing player saying he doesn't score, doesn't assist, doesn't tackle and is more suited to five a side

Someone should euthanise him. Outrageous what he just said.

I'm not a huge watcher of la liga, can someone tell me about what it is that make Simeone so special as his record at Atletico is amazing. Even the Europa/ Super cup and Spanish cup is impressive, let alone la liga and CL(poss).

With managers like Pep and Mourinho they are defined by their styles but I don't know much about simeones.

He starts!!

Coaching and changing the mentality of the players.

Brad!!! On the Fox pregame show!

I would think that Levy is hoping for a Real win. I think we would have some CL winning clauses as part of the Bale and Modric sales which would mean extra money for us.

Getting goosebumps thinking about watching Bale and Modric tonight. Proud that we helped develop two world class players who are now playing on football's greatest stage. Hope they both are immense and get to lift that cup. COYS!!!

Isn't he? BBC show him starting.

Edit: sorry posted without refreshing and realise this is now old!

@Alex_OxChambo: Have I just heard Graeme Souness say Modrić is a weakness for Madrid and 5-a-side player?? Can't agree with that! He's world class!

 

[bomberH]

The tiny amount of respect I had left for Souness has now disappeared. Absolute proof that certain 'experts' do not watch games. Unbelievable comments from him, he's made himself look a genuine ****.

 

[THFCSPURS19]

Souness might as well have just sucked Xabi's cock right there...

Modric has been far better than Xabi this season

Souness proving his stupidity yet again, the game passes Luka Modric by

I'm in Italy and have a dawning realisation that it is not going to be shown on 'free' TV. It looks like it is pay TV only...which is pants. Can anyone confirm? Thanks.

 

[nightgoat]

Souness talking out of his arse again.

 

[hughy]

I've been looking forward to the prospect of this match since the semi-final draw was made. I really, really hope it doesn't let me down.


No word of a lie, I've been more excited about this match today than I have been about any Spurs game in the last 7 or 8 months. This depresses me.

 

[Monkey boy]

Has Souness been drinking a cocktail of Stella and Strongbow in the sun all day or something?

 

[Hitch]

Souness is losing his marbles. Coming out with some right nonsense tonight.

 

[SargeantMeatCurtains]

Watching Luka Modric this season compared to last gives me hope for the likes of Paulinho, Lamela and Soldado. We could be brilliant next season!

Rodrigo and Gabriella?
