    @Fire Squad Thoughts on Real Madrid and how do you see them faring against Man City in the away game?

    We’re so close to the title, just one more g.d. win.

    Truthfully I’m not holding my breath for any miracles in the UCL. Ramos absence is very heavy, although Militao has shown he’s gonna be a worthy heir in these recent games. Its mostly down to how Pep modifies his team; if he’s been paying attention to us and our struggles to break down low blocks (sort of like the first leg when their lines were deeper than usual), then we’re toast unfortunately, KDB running into space is unstoppable. But if they try the usual formula of pressing high, we might stand a chance at attacking their high line...mind you this is all situational and I’m just thinking of multiple scenarios, but I wouldn’t expect a miracle. Hopefully Hazard will be ready for that, the REAL Hazard.

    Yea let's hope we get Wizard Hazard... The fact that the man city crowd/audience won't be there increases our hopes and chances as well. Let's just hope!
    Would you say it is a successful season if we end up with just the League title tho?

    Absolutely, heck I’d bet on us making a good run at the trophy if we can get past City. I trust Zidane and the squad in one-leg games, although our side of the bracket is certainly challenging.

    Considering the state of the club last year, a La Liga is very much a successful season as we got our mojo back, our kids get to taste silverware and our loanees all shined elsewhere! It’s a great foundation to continue to evolve next season.

    I'm a fan of Real Madrid but you meant Ghost Hazard at this point in his career and as far as the 2nd leg against City goes, I can see Real scoring twice, the fact that this is going to take place on an empty stadium it's not an away game anymore so the home advantage for City doesn't play an advantage at all so I honestly think they have a real chance now cause they also perform a lot better than they did before the 1st leg.

    I kinda enjoy La Liga trophies more since we had such a drought, when it comes to those. What can I say... it was a weird season and it made me appreciate presence of fans at the stadium even more. It also made me feel that without fans these sports are not as much interesting or at times not interesting at all. Champions League without audience will not be the same.

    Yeah man. Feels Good. Glad to see all these players win it, especially the ones who won it the first time with Real Madrid. Zidane, Zizo knows how to work his magic. He's loved by everyone in the club. HALA MADRID!

    I'm a real fan but would also be cool if a smaller club would take it (dont recall the first matches tho). Bayern deserves it the way they play tho.

    Urs?
