Rewatched ManU vs. Real Madrid

No, we've always known he was great. He's been called up a few times, and was courted by all major EPL and Serie A sides.

I don't see it happening.

He will get paid well to play second fiddle.

Mourinho needs to go. As I said before, I think he pulls this CL out of his arse, and may not leave for another year.

Ancelotti wants to come to Madrid. Laudrup would be fantastic, but I don't see it, according to his recent declarations (which may simply be a well orchestrated deflection).

Real Madrid eats managers up, there's got to be a good program going on, and major synchronicity. Mourinho has not had it from day one, and I can assure you, were he to win the CL this year, it still means nothing to slightly over half of the RM members.

He is the antithesis of everything what RM stands for, except winning.

By 'hook or crook' may be good enough in many parts of the world, and admired, not at RM.

Given FCB's recent hegemony, a possible CL title would be well received, but with a 'sour' taste.

I mean, I get it. Real Madrid is above that, but watching Oezil and Ronaldo on the counter isn't exactly like watching turtles frick. The GOAT greatest team of all time can attest to that. I just don't understand how it can't be frustrating for Madridistas to watch the greatest counter-attacking player in the world receive the ball 40 yds from goal with four defenders on his back.

Ronaldo is the perfect player for Oezil, and vice versa.

I know that Madristas would prefer a one-footed Argentine who either takes 8 defenders on, makes a central run into the box, or moves 40 yards from right-to-left to find his left winger with a diagonal through ball. But, they can't have him.
