I had no idea the UEFA Super Cup was tonight. 2-0 for Madrid.

Looks like Carlo went with 4-2-3-1 with Modric and Kroos in the double pivot. It'll be interesting to see if it'll work for the entirety of the season.

What options do they have for the "2"? You'd imagine any 2 from Kroos, Modric and Alonso would be a bit lightweight to go a whole season without problems.

EDIT: Just saw the highlights and wow, what a cross for the first goal. Impossible to defend.

There's Khedira too, who's more suited to the role than Kroos.

And Alonso? I dunno, Real have a lot of good players out there. Just not the right defenders.

Btw James looked completely detached from the rest of the team and on a different level. Guess we'll have to wait for him and see if he adapts.

Yeah, he was mentioned in the original Kurt post. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

Real have a lot of games. I don't think gametime will be a problem in any way.

I did think of the midfield pivot being too lightweight, but surprisingly they seemed to deal well with it once they settled down.

It's Carlo after all. The same dude who played 3 number 10s behind 2 strikers, and now he's gone one better.

Will be interesting to watch Madrid. I'm curious how they will deal with a team like Bayern or Chelsea though. Especially without a destroyer.

For some reason I thought they'd sold him.

Verge of. With Kroos' arrival and Modric around it makes him and Di Maria expendable. If they can find a buyer for them they'll leave.

Shame for Di Maria, really world class player but seems Carlo's done with him.

Glad he's also done with Lopez (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Yep great cross from Bale, about the only thing he did all night. Ronaldo ran the show last night. James still getting used to things but that's to be expected, going to be hard for him to shine as much with Madrid as he did last month.

Yep, especially when you consider he was one of Madrid's best players last season.

Harsh on Bale, thought he had a very good night.

Was pretty much the only reason they won the CL Final IMO. Nobody else really showed up for Madrid.

So Suarez's punishment won't be shortened but he'll be allowed to train.

I think that's fair enough. There's no way his ban should've been reduced, but I can understand the training thing. Good decision.
