Wha do you always compare shit with shit? I don't get it. Keller was shit . If DiMateo is better we will se at the end of the season.

Jens Keller can't wipe his own arse. RDM prolly can. RDM wins

can't believe that halfwit is still being mentioned.

Hopefully we can get a comfortable lead after the first leg

RWO experiencing what I went through when I had to support Schalke with Raul. Now I'm on the other side of the glass jeering on RDM.

Draxler, Sam and Huntelaar would be a threat in transition? Sure but Ronaldo, Isco, Kroos, Benzema, Carvajal, possibly Modric would be a threat all match. And Pepe is actually a fine centre back this season, actually he is continuing his fine form from last season.

Seriously, I do enjoy Gil's forum personality but even he probably doesn't believe Schalke has much or any chance in this match.

Why does this thread have 2 pages?

What is there to debate other than the aggregate scoreline?

pls go this game has the potential to turn into the most entertaining match of this round, two attacking teams facing each other, safe to say there'll be a lot of goals from Real Madrid both sides.

feel like wanna test the power of jinx

easy win for RM

Already posted this in the RM section, but I guess it is relevant to the general match thread, too:

Even though RDM already announced in the PK that he wants to park the bus hard, none of Schalke's experienced goalies Ralf Fährmann or Fabian Giefer is fit and you will face the 19 year old kid Timon Wellenreuther from the Schalke youth. Even though he has enormous potential, so far he only played two full BL matches and he is still very green behind the ears.

where else can you be green when you are so young

Hm. Dunno. I just chose to literally translate the German figure of speech "grün hinter den Ohren sein" which is used here for someone who is totally inexperienced. What's the proper equivalent in English?

off course, i knew that, so I commented Legendary RWO, like every other German pulls it off : no offense there !!
I have heard something like 'babe in the woods'...i guess in some series. Well there is another one which is 'being wet behind ears'

Well, "wet behind the ears" sounds pretty close. And by the way, oce in a while I actually deliberately translate German figures of speech as I noticed that quite some English figures of speech made their way into the German language and I always try to return that favour

Madrid will batter Schalke. Awful team, clueless manager. Master tactician indeed

CR is licking his lips atm.

from today's BILD



"9-Man Wall - That's how Schalke wants to stop Ronaldo"
..
"The strategy is straightforward and simple: In front of kiddie-GK Timon Wellenreuther (19) stands a 5-man defense (Uchida, Höwedes. Matip, Nastasic, and Fuchs), plus three DMs (Höger, Neustädter and Boateng)"

GTFI

Imagine if Ronaldo fails to score again...
I expect at least a penalty to be awarded

lol

Schalke are going to get through, sig bet. Whoever loses will hold his sig until the other team gets out of CL/wins CL.

Boateng DM
