At least Granada got 1 point and certainly Barcelona didn't deserve to get away with 3 points from this match.
Madrid 1 Valencia 0

Barca getting carried by Luuk de Jong. You just love to see it

We sometimes forget how good prime Alves was. He's a super smart player with a golden foot. But he'll be totally out of he depth in high intensity games if he plays as a right back, we've seen it with PSG and it was 3 years ago.

And another goal from Vinicius.
Luka Modric off, standing ovation and applause.
Hell of a player.
4-1 Benzema
Benzema with two goals and Vinicius the other two.

Pity Madrid don't have a quality holding mid cause they'd be well in the hunt for a CL.
Wait what, Casemiro is right there? Bigger issue in midfield would be that Modric and Kroos ain’t got the legs anymore for a high pressing game.
An even bigger issue are the backs. Mendy is okayish defensively but not good going forward. Carvajal is injured all the time and not his old self.
No good option on RW either. I’d say all those positions are more of a problem than the midfield. Sitting deep you could maybe get away with the KCM midfield against top teams (we’ll see against PSG), but those other areas are just weak.
Nope, those two are fine. Casimiros issue is he can't play under pressure and that's exactly how the other top teams in world football play.
More to the point he's been bad this season. He was defensively suspect for stretches of last season too but made up for it in attack, funnily enough. This season he's just been subpar
He played pretty well vs Liverpool.
Casemiro is strange. he plays like an amateur sometimes mostly against weak teams. then comes up a big game against a strong side and he becomes a different player. world class.
At the Villareal match. 1-1.What a goal by Correa. Atletico have been very poor. If we are in any sort of form by next month, we have every chance.
Sevila keep up the pressure on Madrid, for now at least ....
The other top 4 contenders need to capitalize on Barcelona dropping points. Real sociedad seem to be the only one who won.
Atletico are in poor form, United are in poor form, will be interesting to see which team is less bad than the other, or maybe they both pull it together by that point, who knows.
Did Barca extend Umtiti for 5 years just to be able to register Torres? 
Did Barca extend Umtiti for 5 years just to be able to register Torres?
Yup, that's exactly what they did.
Yeah though it's a pretty smart deal all in all. They spread whatever he had left of his contract over 5 years, so it shouldn't weight too much on their finances going forward even if he doesn't leave. And they get to register their expensive new signingDid Barca extend Umtiti for 5 years just to be able to register Torres?
It is pretty smart, they're not exactly spreading but close enough to make it an interesting deal, especially since it's going to make him far easier to sell this summer (Barcelona apparently told him he could leave for free according to some sources i've read).
I kinda agree, but in total they are certainly paying him more in these 60 months than they would have over the 18 months that were still left on his deal. Otherwise there would have been no incentive for the player.
And yes, he is more transferable now and they would certainly not block him leaving.
Still i find it funny!
Thus, Umtiti has reduced by 10% the total salary that had to enter in the year and a half of the contract that remained until 2023, in addition to accepting to include variables. And that 90% that he will receive will be divided into the four and a half years of contract that he has signed now.
Information from mundo deportivo and sport
I get that he lowered his wages for the next 18 months so that you could register Torres. But your new shiny striker means you have an unlucky/often injured/useless player on the payroll for another 4.5 years. Absolute mint
The last 6 games of Atletico in la liga are 4 loses, 1 draw and 1 win. We surely can beat them, they're even worse than us.
Umtiti was going to earn €24M in 18 months, now he will earn a €22M in 4.5 years. Barcelona pays a little less and in more years.
This agreement offers advantages such as easier to loan him.
No, they aren’t paying him a single euro more.
your sloppy defense is going to make it easier for Atletico but it should be a good even match
Barcelona surely wins today. They've had too many defeats against RM in a row.
Depay lost his spot to Luuk de Jong. Oh hell yes.
Going to play the charity shield in Saudi Arabia in the middle of the season seems absolutely mental to me. They're both playing their first teams as well?
EDIT: It's a four team mini-tournament as well?

Garcia isn't happy about it either.
Garcia is starting to sound like a boomer.
He is actually right.
Doing businesses its fine, but changing the events just for the sake of money isn't good.
Might as well move the UCL final to Tokyo, Saudi Arabia,Los Angeles, etc for profits.
Caring about traditions, and not selling them for the sake of money, it's not a boomer thing its common sense.
Of course capitalist suit men don't like this idea, it means they will make less money, which is why we are gonna have a WC with 48 teams, and FIFA is even bribing confederations to accept the proposal... shit quality matches everywhere, as if 32 teams weren't enough.
Alaba missing from this game. He is too important so Xavi to get his first trophy of the season.
Even though the Barca lineup finally looks decent again, I highly doubt it. RM are just in much better form (8 win 1 loss 1 draw in 10 games) compared to Barca (4 wins 3 loss 3 draw in 10 games)
I don't necessarily disagree, but he's from my generation of footballers, along with Ronaldo Rooney Messi. And he's not that much older than me, so hearing him talk like that is making me feel old.
