Unbelievable, Rabiot didn't make the French squad. That guy is so good.

France national team is full of extraordinary players. You shouldn't be surprised.

Blaise Matuidi, Nzonzi and Tolisso are not better than Rabiot. in fact Rabiot is better than all of them.
The coach doesn't just like Rabiot.

A Team that has Giroud the snail and Dembele that didn't play much this year.SMH this time they'll lose to Iceland

lacazette was dropped also. Does that mean the coach hates him to?

I think it all depends on what the coach wants, maybe Rabiot doesn't fit in. Maybe.

Looks like Liverpool are preparing a suprise package.


Liverpool's Marbella training sessions before Champions League final are top secret

Real Madrid may have one more league match to play before the Champions League final, but Liverpool have already finished their Premier League season and are currently training in Marbella.


The English club are being very secretive and aren't letting anyone see their tactical plans.

In fact, those journalists who have passed nearby couldn't even tell which players were which, given that they've been kept so far away from the action.

The tarpaulin walls of the Marbella Football Centre have been raised a little higher than usual, while the nearby buildings are controlled by the club too, presumably with some fees having been paid out.

"Sorry, but you can't pass here," a security guard even said as some journalists tried to enter a nearby property.

Andres Roldan, the director of the centre, had a similar message.

"We've received instructions from Liverpool not to allow access to anybody," he explained.

"They want total privacy."

What is known is that the players travelled from their hotel to the training ground on bicycles, while it's also known that Emre Can and James Milner are still working to return from their injuries, with the latter still hopeful of facing Los Blancos.

The players had a free afternoon on Thursday and spent time with their families, before they'll return to work on Friday.

Good for them.

In warfare you focus more on your own fire power and not so much attention on the enemy arsenal.

Even if you liquidate the enemy attack but is unable to cause them damage it ends as a draw.

So I hope our attack has the best day come 26th. Our defence has not been reliable at any time this season by the way.

I hope how attack shows up to. About our defense, Ramos and co knows how to turn up in the finals and most important matches.

Bale has been in superb form in the last few league games. I wonder what Zidane's XI for the UCL will be. Would he bench Benz and opt for this same line up or bench Isco and play the BBC?

I would love to see same line-up we are playing with now against Liverpool on 26. (Not Luca in goal tho, but navas).

Madrid is always letting in goals... God save us come 26th

this shouldn't be a suprise to you. Our defense is something else. Well it's young zidane in between the sticks, so let's not worry to much. His still a newbie.

final scores matter

Truth be told Luca wasn't that bad. Both goals could have gone either way. Casilla would certainly have conceded both goals anyway.

We were the better side for the first 60 minutes. The last half an hour was unfortunate. Thankfully there were no injuries.

I'd be okay with any lineup at Kiev. I'm pretty sure Zidane had already made up his mind going into this game. Only two spots are up for grabs and four players are in contention--Isco, Bale, Lucas, and Benzema. Any of the four could play and there would be good reasons to back the choice.

Let's just hope Zidane's choice is the right choice.

Luca was amazing today, I never said he was the reason for the two goals we conceded. Tho he made some wrong decision.

About the line-up we should use in Kiev. Zidane knows the best, just like you said.

Whatever line-up he use should have bale in it.

I trust Ramos. He will turn up on 26th. Same with varane and Marcelo.

Based on last season and 2 seasons ago, last nights lineup is what will play except for Luca Zidane.

The only down side is for the defence not to short circuit like last night.
The major concern (Marcelo) forgot his lines and kept Castillejo onside for the equaliser.

Hopefully he should not do same for Salah. A faster and deadlier striker for that matter.

Like I said earlier our defence has been sinusoidal all season so let's hope the strikers are far more sharp and accurate on the 26th.

Krasid:

It will Ronaldo Bale upfront and the Isco diamond in the middle with same back four.

My only fear is Isco doing a free role again with no specific spot to hold down. This always distorts the defensive structure

.

Miremoses1:
Marcelo has a big test waiting for him in Kiev ,SALAH. If he blinks twice, salah will surely shot him on 26th.

Those defensive blunders he committed yesterday night is way out of it.

Did you see his beautiful assist for that second goal?

monerozi5590:

lol. I know what you are hitting at but I won't fall prey.

All I'm saying is that Marcelo needs to up his game defensively.
