King Jela 21,795 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Can't be too far away from the sack now, now 16 points behind Barcelona at Christmas, rumours of a dressing room row between himself and the players and now he's dropped the captain.Will he even make it to the tie against United come February ?

AyeReadyStu 70 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 He'll walk at the end of the season either way, but If they lose to Man U he'll get the sack I think. Real want the CL badly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Jela 21,795 Posted December 22, 2012 Author Share Posted December 22, 2012 Apparently it's the Portugese/Spanish divide in the dressing room with everyone else steering well clear of the firing zone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the goal machine 7,997 Posted December 23, 2012 Share Posted December 23, 2012 If they win the Champions League, it will be a huge success no matter where they finish behind Barcelona.

Spain are a more defensive unit than Barcelona - who they model themselves after - which means they need a more commanding defence. Casillas is, by far, the most commanding keeper Spain have, but Valdes could easily slot in there and with a little work so could De Gea.He's a good keeper, but not the best in the world, Buffon takes that.
