What's new

So Kevin will be the most expensive Genk player ever!

What if I told you Ronaldo didn't score a single goal away from home in the league between the end of November and the late Feb.

I'd say 'Wow, he didn't score a goal in four away games?'

My mind is, well not blown. Um, yeah that's not that shocking.

I mean he'd scored 4 in 4 before that. I know it sounds better if you make it sound like he didn't score in 4 months, but the reality is a little different isn't it.

 
Just for context Messi has just ended a run of not scoring in 3 league games away from home with 1 goal in the 8-0 rout of Deportivo.

That was part of a run of 5 games without a goal, something Ronaldo hasn't had this season.

But these stats are virtually meaningless.

No one said anything of the sort.

I said that this season Ronnie is a flat track bully, and most of his goals are from hammering sh*t teams.

You're talking sh*t is what you're doing. Guys world class and easily in with a DESERVED chance of been WPOTY again.End of the day he scores goals doesn't matter the opposition (he scored the winner against Barca but you will probably conveniently forget that in your crusade against him). You'll find many top players don't often score in the huge games cause the teams are trying to stop them, Messi's never gotten a goal against us for example. Thierry Henry often didn't score in the big games and hasn't scored for Arsenal in any of their cup final wins whilst he was there.

 
Real in the final, I guess. Again. (Not funny anymore.)

I believe their two backs have made the difference yesterday. Very fast and very dangerous. 

Kevin had more to do in the defence then he could do in the attack. Combinations were not possible. The long passes to difficult. Worked had, run miles. But, can do much better. Can be more important. Perhaps in Spain, next week.

Thought also that a good Hazard could have his place in that Madrid squad I have seen.

 
Last night I was surprised to see that de Bruyne seemed far more effective at holding shape or position than he was at pressing or cutting off passing avenues. I've never thought a huge amount of his ability off the ball, but certainly I would have said that he was better when he was proactive rather than reactive off the ball.

I think his passing was without a doubt more dangerous in the first half when he was playing centrally. When Pellegrini brought on Iheanacho and moved de Bruyne to the left I thought he had far less of an influence on the game (although his set pieces were still reasonably good).

 
Correct, Plokoon13.

Don't know. Perhaps Pellegrini should have given Sterling a chance at that moment. It was a home game. 

But they keep the 0.

Also impotant.

I was surprised that his condition was already so good. 

Had expected a change in minute 70 or something. Was at the end almost the match winner.

 
Kevin conducts the Arsenal songs to a sound of silence, today!

Amazing.

He's still getting better and better!
