Like the majority of His career, Redondo is getting underrated yet again. Kind of reminds of Xavi's situation until Spain and Barca smartly decided to build around His midfield dominance. Also another thing that counts against Him as either you or Dayo already said was that He never had the opportunity to play in a star studded Madrid team.

You have said it all. I believe every true die hard Madrid fan will have Redondo in their all time 1st 11.
As far as longevity and service are concerned, Redondo is above Makelele, Guti, Gravesen, in that CM role.

Like someone said here, Kross and Modric should thank their star for having Ronaldo in their team.

Haaa you people no dey fear God? Berg, Man Utd legendary defender?

I watched Berg stop the attacking trio of Ronaldo, Zamorano and Roberto Baggio. I dunno another attacking trio deadlier than these @ any club back then.

afrodoc2:
I remember that year well too, they beat us in the quarter finals. Redondo played out of his socks that year, possibly the best CM performance in UCL in the last 20years by a player not named Xavi.

O boy, the great Fernando Redondo. The guy who turned Berg(Man Utd's legendary defender) into 360 degree before slotting a cool pass for Raul's tap in.

AIT in 2000 was a very cool station then.

raumdeuter:
Pep for Bayern 3 semi finals

Conte career 0 semi finals

Cool down Bro cool down. Let's wait for next season before we finally open his case.

Which Kai nonsense I dey read here?

Seen notwithstanding, this is his first year and besides Monaco isn't playing. They are presently in the semis of UCL. Coupled with the fact that some big names left PSG.

I've confirmed.

Emery is the only coach to manage Sevilla and go a whole league season without winning an away match throughout.

Only coach to get knocked out after a 4-0 lead.

He has destroyed everything Blanc created. Blanc met a winning team and made them better.

Blanc @ Barca

ollah2:
How did Unai ruin them? They are second on the log with a game in hand and are presently in the finals of coupe de France. Mind shedding more light on it

You check the table and you'll see it's actually Monaco that has a game in hand despite a 3 points lead.

Normally, @ this stage of the season, PSG would have won the league already.

They qualified for coupe de France final because Monaco fielded team C players against them.

I was the one who pointed it out here that PSG are on their worst run in the last 5 years.

1st loss to Monaco @ home this year in all competitions.

Any team that can prevent Madrid from winning the title will have all the blessings of the 201 gods of Yoruba land.

Lauren Blanc all the way. He made PSG what they were until a certain Unai Emery ruined them.

I need a coach that will turn my team to a winning team once again, where even my bench can defeat mid table teams.

A coach that will bring the best out of Gomes, Vidal, and Digne, and have the balls to bench off-form players like Neymar and Suarez, while developing faith in Alcacer.

Lana1:
Lmao!

They are a big disgrace

Grundig:
Wow.
Many Chelsea fans are indeed post abramovic era.

I bet not many know Dennis wise

Tori Andy Flo kor? I remember the dude nearly destroyed my team in UCL 2000 Q/F. Thank God for Figo and Rivaldo.

Babayaro was a beast at Left Back then...

Sometimes you miss someone like Pep for this particular reason. I hope whoever comes next season gives priority to Lamasia too(along with two to three players but definitely we dont need a massive Overhaul)


This was Barcelona's starting 11 in a Champions league match in 2011/2012 season. Batra,Cuenca,Montoya and Thiago were all 20.Sergi Roberto was 19,Dos Santos and Fontas were 21,Rafinha was 19

All LA Masia except Pinto and Maxwell..Barcelona Won 4-0 that night

This is the Club we Know

Sergi Roberto and Thiago should have been our Iniesta and Xavi today. They sold one to Bayern and the other one is now a full back. Bought Gomes and Dennis. Thank God for Messi keeping us in the league.

The board needs to be overhauled. I'm annoyed seeing this 2012 formation.

LethargiQue:



Their bragging right isn't the champions league trophy or Europa league trophy..

It's neither all the English trophies they have amassed,
amassed isn't the appropriate word though, since all the trophies don't sum up to 20.. But I felt I owe them that honour, my best friend is a Chelsea fan..


Their main bragging right in football is that on head to head records, they're above Barcelona..

We keep them relevant in football..

Barca beat Chelsea @ Stamford Bridge in UCL in Messi's 1st away match as an 18 year old lad.

Until they beat Barcelona @ Camp Nou, Chelsea has no bragging rights over my team.

Tonight's match has buttress the point that Sergi Roberto is Iniesta's heir. The guy was brought into his natural midfield position, and we dominated everything in the midfield resulting in 2 goals.

Marcelo

pelvicky:
let's talk about next season.


Paco should be loan out, munir should come back.


mascherano should go and rest in his hometown abeg.


Mathieu should go and enjoy his money at a beach (what a career)


Denis should take Iniesta place PERMANENTLY next season.


And lastly, we should bid for mbappe, if we get him, we should leave him at Monaco to develop for another season .


bykebyke can be our coach.

Paco should stay. He needs another coach and another chance. I want Competition for Suarez. Suarez has lost form since January. Paco is showing signs of improvement.

The true heir to Iniesta in the team is Sergi Roberto. I want the dude brought back to his natural position. Whenever he moves with the ball to the central midfield, something always happens.

Gomes, inasmuch as I dislike also needs another season to prove himself.

Ins...
Mbappe
Veratti
A good CB
A good RB
A DM with brain and brawn.

Outs...
Mascherano
Mathieu
Turan
"Iniesta"(he has paid his dues)

Glo is crap. Rubbish is their 2nd name.

#4000...

Dembele is a genius. What a lad!

Bayern losing here and there. Later they'll say Ancelloti is the upgrade...

Hmm...

airmark:
Messi yet to score one goal against Chelsea in ucl. Chelsea's punching bag, Leicester knocked out laliga's top team, sevilla .

Barcelona defeated Chelsea @ Stamford Bridge with 18 years old Messi's Man of the Match performance.
We are still waiting for Chelsea's 1st win against Barcelona @ Camp Nou. I'll not be surprised if Chelsea can't do it in our generation.

Sevilla were knocked out by EPL champion. Neither you nor I was born the last time Sevilla won the league.

airmark:
Osasuna Tell me why messi and ronaldo will not be scoring gazillion goals every season?

UCL kor?

Glo 4g mifi speed some minutes ago.

I just tire for all these Hazard fans raising up flimsy excuses for his failures.

Even Lampard that was a consistent 20+ goal scorer for many seasons wasn't as hyped as Hazard.

A dude that has never scored 20 league goals in his entire EPL career is being compared with a consistent 40+ goal scorer in the last 8 years consecutively.

I tire.

Truer words have not been said.

jonsnow92:
I came to this thread some weeks back and said Kante is Chelsea's best player.. I went as far as calling him among the top2 central midfielders in the World presently.. I think I have been Justified..To all of you who called me names,Hide your heads in shame..Bow!

Calm down bros. This is a guy who has never played in UCL, and was a bench warmer in the last Euros. Calling him top 2 CM in the world is called HYPE.

Let him play with the big boys 1st before you rate him that high.

I have lost my voice...

Messi the Greatest Of All Time.

Bykebyke, abeg post that picture of Messi in god like mode.

Mumu defence

Red card Ramos

Toooooorrrrrrrrrrrrr


Rakitic

Gomes don enter. Game over

Ronaldo... World best my azz
