Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 You know if they put someone on the posts at corners they'd still be level. And they'd have won the CL too. That's the one thing British teams do better than anybody else in the world, attack and defend set pieces. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Very poor defending. Always pains me to see a team full of world class defenders who work so hard on shape and stuff to not concede goals concede such a simple basic goal that a decent pub team would be disappointed by. Completely free header four yards from goal. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 Like a 532. Can't see that lasting, fine when they're level now they're behind its different. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not having men on posts boils my pish but I'm not convinced that UK teams are always less susceptible to this nonsense. Probably from corners that's true but at free kicks they're all expecting goalkeepers to cover the entire range of their goal once it beats the wall from any distance/angle. Even lower league Scottish teams set up to prevent a passing move when they can hardly string two together in open play. Graham Hunter is really hard work on commentary here. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what boils my piss c***s like that commentating. I've got a Dutch guy and its quite peaceful, no idea what he's saying he could be calling my mum a c**t wouldn't matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ooft, Hunter on commentary? That's McManaman levels of shite. Awful first half from Atleti, that. Suarez has looked awful since COVID and the less said about Herrera the better. Fair play to Real though, been better all over the pitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vikingTON Posted December 12, 2020 Share Posted December 12, 2020 (edited) Very disappointed in how Atletico Madrid performed but they've been doing that on and off in the CL as well so it isn't a huge surprise. It still has to be their title to lose though. It'll come down to which team is more ruthless in dealing with the rest of the division instead of big six-pointers and Simeone's side have all the motivation and enough quality to grind results out. I can't see Real Madrid reliably keeping that motivation for every Huesca and other no-mark game in the months to come and Atletico still have the return fixture at home anyway.

Don't agree, for me Real won the title last night. I have no doubt whatsoever they'll pretty much cruise it now, Atleti will make it appear like a decent race for a while but its over. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have Sociedad, Atleti and Barca all in the space of about a month come the new year - as well as the Champions League. Still think Atleti are favourites, tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atleti need a bigger lead than that to have any chance. Real were always going to come to the boil at one point, the last two performances and results have turned the corner for them. They're reel them in now and ease past them. Real's title without question for me, Atleti needed to avoid defeat last night. Big psychological blow too, Real know they have them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Three fairly big wins in a row, won their CL group, easy enough draw. Their season is turning round just now. Was always going to happen, they're too good and too experienced to stay that bad for long. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carnoustie Young Guvnor Posted December 19, 2020 Share Posted December 19, 2020 Really wish Atletico scored more goals. Every single win they get it seems like they have to grind it out, never win at a canter. Currently hanging on 2-1 up at home to Elche. Imo over the course of a season that takes its toll on a team, one of the things they need to move away from. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
