First time all three of them have been on duty at the same time too given that Suarez's ban has only just ended. Perhaps the travelling is catching up with them? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 To be fair it's also one of the best team games I've seen Ronaldo have but I hate this "where are all the haters" he's scored a goal, that's what he does apart from that he's done more or less **** all, been better going back than forward He's a stato wet dream and he's added to it but he hasn't had a good game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Bale been fantastic tonight, deserved a goal along with the assist for Ronaldo. Nice to see the Real front trio outshining the Barca lot eh PaulC.....:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 That's twisted to suit the argument due to what he's just done, the criticism is that he doesn't turn up or influence massive games in the same way that other players do, like I said he scored a goal, did very little else tonight though, if you're aiming the criticism or asking the question that this season he's dipped slightly, again I don't see how that goal or his performance tonight stops that question from being asked Is he a bully boy stat padder/chaser? IMO yes, even after tonight the answer is still yes My argument for Ronaldo is that I don't care about what's written down on a piece paper, I watch him play football and just get very little joy out of it, he's a man who's built his incredible record out of scoring a hat trick after having 20 shots in a match vs the likes of Murcia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 14 goals in 17 El Classicos. How many has he won? That's the only thing that matters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
penguin Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 He can only do as much as one man can do, don't really see how the result has a universal bearing on an individual's performance. If pointing out him scoring in 14 out of 17 in one of the most high profile fixtures in world doesn't put to bed the myth 'he doesn't do it in the big games' nothing will.

villa4europe Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 No because it goes back to what I said first, take away the crazy goal stats, he doesn't influence games in the same way that offer players do He scored a goal in the CL final, looks great as a stat on a piece paper but I watched the game and can tell you it meant **** all given his anonymous performance that night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villa4europe Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Payets free kick today was stunning, keepers side too but it's so high and has a wicked dip on it, don't think it could be more in the top corner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 (edited) Iniesta is a problem for them. He is past his best! They might need to consider playing a second holding midfield player along with Busquets. i wouldn't write them off after one defeat and it was only the last 10 minutes or so of that game where Real came into it. They won 4-0 at the Bernabeu, without Messi but that was when Neymar and Suarez were on fire, Too many games may have caught up with them a little.The only 3 players that they dont rotate the squad with are Messi, Suarez and Neymar, they play virtually ever game. maybe one is rested in the copa Edited April 3, 2016 by PaulC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
