My 30 favourite stylistically-breathtaking Real Madrid players that I have ever watched, in order:

My question to Ancelotti about Camavinga’s development as the 6.

Lollllll

this is gonna go down until the 2nd leg 99th minute and my heart is gonna stop 500 times

Give it up for Dani Ceballos. What a pass. He recognized the defense stepping up and wasted no time.

Mbappe tried so hard to miss that 😭😭

2 passes in a row Camavinga putting players under pressure with those passes. City nearly score from both. Just before that he plays a line-breaking diagonal switch to Vinicius. Still needs to learn when to play the easy pass and when to go vertical

It was the Gvardiol run out of nowhere that made that. Asencio all of a sudden caught in between 2 markers.

City banner. “Stop crying your heart out”

Office is all set up for tonight

Obligatory

If you want some behind the scenes from the Etihad, follow me on IG I’ll be pretty active on stories: KiyanSo

-I wouldn't do it - someone asked about this hypothetical it would not be the end of the world given 1) unprecedented influx of cash & 2) Mbappe / Rodrygo insurance - there are 5-7 players in football history (MAX) worth this kind of money - offer is real. It'll come down to Vini and I don't think he'll leave

RT @managingmadrid: Is Real Madrid doomed if Vinicius accepts the Saudi offer? 🗣️: @kiyanso

RT @managingmadrid: When Jude Bellingham crashes the box it changes Real Madrid’s offense completely.

Podcast at the final whistle. Key talking points: changes in the 2nd half (especially on Vini / Rodrygo / KM), Jude's positioning, Tchouameni - Asencio partnership, referee. Spotify: Apple: YouTube:

Asencio even hit em with the Sergio Ramos 'get up' 😭😭

Rodrygo vs Lino has been the best source of offense so far. He's been great.

Atletico in their comfort zone right now. Defending in banks of 5 and 4, with 3-4 Atleti players always on the strong side staying compact and narrow following the ball carrier. They've barely had to deal with any entries into the penalty area. Ironic that the 3 left wingers have barely had a touch on the left at all. The wing has been given to Fran Garcia. Vini and Mbappe central. Vini's had the least amount of touches of any outfield player on the field, and they've been poor. The team looked mentally-spent after the penalty. Immediately followed it with poor pressing sequences and poor tracking. Took Atletico 1-3 passes to break through behind Vazquez who is now pushing up. Not a penalty. Hard to focus on the football. There are two things true right now: Real Madrid have been bad, officiating has been bad.

joke. Hard to even focus on the football
