Real Madrid C.F. 2007/08

Aissaiti we all agree on is maybe the most talented player in Holland. Bossing the AC Milan midfield at the age of 16 showed what he can do.

Bakkal is more surprising since isn't expected to do great thngs in the future at all. Just a squad member while Aissati is a possible future WC player. Thanks for the update.

We really need Raul to get the f@ck out. I keep forgeting he's even on the field.

Soldado should get some time in there.

The whole PSV team is playing quite well when going forward.

how has salcido been?

What's the name of the left back? He looks good as well.

the only way for raul to be benched, is if he benches himself. no coach will ever bench him. Raul to be playing for us till he's 45 and starting

i think this will be his last (2nd) season with PSV, and im glad for that he was linked to the premiership at the beginning of the transfer window but stayed.

Signing Ballack doesn't mean that he will be a threat for Guti foremost, it's all about having options which you simply need to be successful on the highest level, both in the league and especially in the CL. Ballack and Guti could play very well together also, e.g. Ballack playing deeper in a more defensive role.

Players like Guti and others who are not the most consistent actually need serious competition, otherwise they will never change for the better.

Yes. I guess I should learn to accept it but I just can't. If he really loves the club so much then he should leave himself though. Maybe it's part of his colchonero heart that keeps him with us

Watch him score a goal now

he's 30, its a bit to late now

Salcido gets a bit overrated in general. He is good on the ball and has a good shot but overall his defending - especially as CB - can be quite poor.

Who is playing in CB, Da Costa and?

Baptista and Diarra come in but neither for Raul

It's never too late.

Besides, it's about the club, not individual players. The club interests should always come first.

again a nice pass from guti leading to a good chance

Balboa and Gago. Gago looked rusty but Balboa was playing 10 times better than Raul.

Krompkamp for mendez with 10 minutes to go

De Jong and Van der Leegte for Bakkal and Aisatti

2 chances in a row!

Great nutmeg by Saviola in that second chance. Would have been a great goal but Mendez covered well.

5 minutes left to find an equalizer

2-1 FT, psv win

That's what you get for not playing Metzelder. He didn't play against hannover and PSV, you lost both matches, he did play against Moscow, you won.

Very good by PSV, 'beating' Milan and Real is a great achievment no matter what.

Game over. We need to improve a lot but PSV certainly weren't superior to us. We had more chances to score and dominated for longer periods.

Today, more than anyone, Schuster really angered me. He did a Capello by playing Raul for 90 minutes even though Raul was beyond $h!t. He looked like a lost puppy in the forest once again. He makes 5 substitutions and every player he substituted was better than Raul (De la Red was slightly less $h!t than him). Why not give Soldado a chance? He only got to play 45 minutes the whole tournament.

Our wing play today was bad as well. All our attacks came from the center. We definitely need to buy Robben ASAP. It didn't help that Robinho was bad today either. Both him and Gago looked too rusty, but that's no mystery given that they've only trained for 3 days.

On the positive side, I liked Marcelo today. He messed up a few times, but looked a real threat when attacking. Had a great one-two with Saviola but wasn't composed enough in front of goal. Despite his screw-up for the second goal, Dudek was surprisingly good. Guti was very good once again and Saviola looks to be finding his feet.

Also, PSV are a class team. It's tough to break them down yet we still had a fair share of good chances.

Get used to it blut, I think Schuster's first choice partnership is Cannavaro and Pepe.

Gomes was the difference betw. the two sides. Class keeper.

yeah, from what ive read marcelo was pretty solid. had a couple of good crosses and was pretty active

It's a mystery why especially Milan haven't gone yet for Gomes.

when do psv start competetive matches?
