Isn't that Jese guy a striker? I thought he was meant to be highly rated. Surely he has to be a better option that Hernadez

Jese's a winger/wide forward and hasn't looked good in the games he's played since he came back from the cruciate injury. I expect they'll change it if at 45/60 minutes if it's not working.
 
Careful Chicha or they'll bring the handkerchiefs out.
 
Atletico are worse than Chelsea. Anti footballing unit pur sang.
 
The Real players have no interest in giving any sort of service to Hernandez. Kind of understandable, but if Ronaldo was the lone man up front he would be having a serious paddy right about now.
 
Unlike Chelsea, they have a reason to play this way.
Ok. They're still dirty jammy ugly football playing stormcunts and I do not wish to see more of this football in the semis. Get them out pronto.
 
Atletico actually seem to be less defensive than Chelsea last weekend :lol:

That is the only way to compete vs the big teams. I dont mind it at all. Underdogs always have my support.
 
The Stoke City of Europe even if Stoke has changed a lot. Atletico were enjoyable last season, they're horrible to watch now.
Really? I didn't watch them much last season but whenever I did in the big games, they played the same way. Are they that different this season?
 
Atletico are capable of attacking. The first 20 minutes of the second leg v Barca last season was up their with the best I've seen.
 
Martin Tyler doesn't really know what to say? A bit out of his depth in this kind of game, where he can't draw upon his 10 0000 anecdotes from his 150 years commentating English football?

Normally: "John Fields, who of course is the second cousin of Bill Lager, the kit man down at Carlisle United. I wonder what he'd have to say about the kits tonight *chuckles jovially*

Now: "Such a, uh, global match, not just because it's a derby, but also such a huge game."
 
Why do people expect teams to go toe to toe with the most expensive and talented teams in Europe. You set up in the way that is most likely to get you a result it is as simple as that. Plus Atletico play some great stuff at times.
 
What a keeper Casillas is, best in the world. Certainly no need for another keeper!
