Not that Madrid are any good themselves, but Barca have been bang average for a while now.
La Liga this season is practically battle of who’s the least shit.
City will have zero issues knocking Madrid out and I wouldn’t be shocked if Newcastle give Barca trouble.
Frankly, if Barca didn’t have Yamal I’d have Newcastle as favourites.
Back in 2018 this seemed like a foregone conclusion.
Eight years later though this seems like Perez looking for another semi competent manager that will be his next yes man. I guess you could argue the best version of Mbappe came under Poch at PSG.
That’s a really weird tackle and looks more like an intent to hurt rather than intent to tackle.
May not be a straight red but yellow would feel insufficient as well.
Mbappe RW shifts in big 2026.
Vini back to his stinkers.
Stonewall penalty bot given to Madrid. Ref blowing the whistle before the added time was even elapsed.
More points dropped, Madrid need an all timer collapse to even hope for winning La Liga.
