Softer schedule maybe, but Madrid has had James, Bale, Ramos, Danilo, and Pepe all miss time. A lot of time

Glad Atleti tied. Villareal is still on top by 1 point and were in a three way tie for 2-4

Isco has bern ****, so has Ronaldo except for the 3 games where he has scored 10 goals.

Its actually a pretty competitive season for the top spot this year. I don't expect it to be like that by January though.

This year this competition is very interesting, many teams are in the hunt for the first positions like Madrid, Atletico, Barcelona, Villarreal, even teams like Deportivo, Eibar or Betis. At the mid-bottom of the ranking we find Real Sociedad, Athletic, Sevilla or Valencia, teams that for his players need to be more up.

Person Pitch wrote:Barca have a pretty soft schedule up until the Classico. Injuries are brutal but this was essentially the same team that had the best defense in Europe last year. Hopefully they can sort things out on that end.

Madrid look solid defensively, but their offense looks poor right now.

If Barca can be within 5 points by the time the Classico comes around and Messi is back I'll be happy.


James and Bale have been out. Isco has been underwhelming and Ronaldo useless in most of the games so far. Hopefully he picks it up soon.

The offense is surely lacking but I hope the return of a healthy and fit Bale and James(out another 2-4 weeks?) can right the ship....

Ronaldo needs to move more for the ball in the middle of the pitch, I want to see how opposing teams respond. Try something different in terms of tactics.

I'm actually not confident in the defense yet, goalkeeping has been excellent! it was the reverse before, solid defense and crap goalkeeping(Casillas). IMO...

missed the game, but caught a replay of it today. Neymar played well, We could have easily lost this. This year can't end soon enough.

I bet he (Casillas) slept with your girlfriend or something.
Every post you make is bashing Casillas. A GK that literally gave a world cup to Spain in that final against Holland.

3 champions league to R.Madrid.

Etc, etc, etc...

Casillas was great. Ever since 2010, he has been garbage. Theres a reason he went to Porto, and its not because he's good.

Navas with another clean sheet....

I bash Casillas because he had no business starting or playing over Navas or de Gea for Spain. Career wise he had it n will be remembered as a great but he fell off and his pride or insecurities hurt my real Madrid more than anything in the last couple of seasons.

He and fans before were holding onto the old Casillas ignoring who is he now
