remember when Real had solved football, didn't need Ronaldo, etc? Kinda hard to win games when Benzema misses all his chances and then some

remember when 2p2's finest fitba minds all agreed that Real was better without RON and then they struggled to even get a draw at home against valolencia

RON would have had 10 goals in benzema's shoes

Can we all agree that Asensio is the best player in real?

The important question is what damage this did to RITS's accumulator

Was good fun. Interesting game, 3-0 does not tell the whole story at all.

Yes St Etienne shuffled their legs pretty well and in a competent manner, 3-0 on a bad day is mad decent.

that's a lie, Ronaldo either scored or assisted in about 80% of the tough games last season, go ahead, prove me wrong. imagine the butthurtness someone has to endure and how much pain he inflicted if someone calls him not relevant. glorious.

Bale scored a deflected goal in the 10 games since the season started, it's a miracle if he shoots more than 2 times/game at the goal, doesn't create anything relevant, everyone in the team is playing a different game than him. He's at 100% physically and there's nothing he can improve in his game. I have never seen in my entire life a RM player getting so much credit, with such poor results.

and maybe dont use the results as the argument when madrid have drawn 5 of the last 7 at home against valencia and it was the first time since august 2014 they lost points when ronaldo didnt play

he's not being serious, he's trying to "troll"* by referring to those away games against the likes of Depor, when Zidane was rotating like 8 players. see how he switches from tough games to must-win away games? I bet he had a quick check on flashscore and was shocked when Ronaldo was crucial in like 80% of the wins against tough teams.

*troll = thinking Barca still had a chance to win the league after they won at the Bernabeu, only to watch Ronaldo come back fully rested and sealing the deal at the end of the season. he's trying to be funny(?), but you can see the bitterness.

calling ronaldo not relevant is a bit harsh.
yeah, he did fall off the cliff (relatively speaking) in the league last season, but he still was madrid's 3rd or 4th best player there.
plus their best player in the cl.
not bad for a 32 year old.

no. isco's got that one covered.
looking at their respective trajectories, it sure seems like asensio's passing ronaldo in the power rankings this season, tho.

messi-dependencia is reaching a critical level, for sure.
madrid are surely a favorite to ship the league, but with a healthy messi barca still have a chance.
lose him to an injury and earning a cl spot will be a struggle.

even without goat they still have suarez biscuits iniesta among others in their front 6, still plenty good enough to be a ginormous fave over macarena FC every week

suarez nearly won the bluddy prem on his own

vs macarena fc's and toros gordos cf's, sure.

vs madrid, atletico, sevilla, villareal, rso, bilbao, valencia, celta, not so much.
a healthy goat will be needed.

Bale = Theo Hernandez if you play him as a winger. maybe, it's a close one.
