thoughts on… Galatasaray?
The first leg will be played on April 3 at the Bernabéu and the second leg on April 9.
Let’s hope none of their fans try to dig their way into the Bernabéu!
P.S. I love Macca! He did well for us. Speaking of our former English players, come on Becks, do us (that includes your beloved Iker) a favor!
P.P.S. I can’t wait to see the reunion between Sergio and “Welly”!
P.P.P.S. According to Madrid’s High Court of Justice, Karim Benzema has been fined €18,000 and his driving license suspended has been for eight months and one day (he had to turn over his license right then and there) for that speeding incident after a speedy trial today. He had been driving himself to training practices the last few days, but I guess he’ll now have to go the route of Marcelo, who had his brother-in-law Caio Alves take him to training the last several days.



Oh Karim. Hopefully having a driving buddy means he’ll have a friend to take pics with him.
I don’t know how I feel about gala! I’m torn on whether I’m glad we’re playing at home first, since we can’t seem to keep a clean sheet, or afraid that their stadium will overwhelm us in the second leg.
Mesut must be excited.
Alot of fans will think that we got the easiest team of the draw but I think most of them are wrong. We have to keep our guard up and treat it as if we are training to play Barcelona or Dortmund. These smaller teams always come up strong against us so we really have to show them good game. I am praying and dreaming of La Decima, Hala Madrid!!!
Hamit Altintop!!!!!! Drogba reuniting with Essien, Carvalho and Mourinho of course welly reuniting with Mou too 😀
It is the lightest draw in comparison in what we had so far, but I do believe nothing is easy in competition, Real Madrid seem this season to do worse against the supposed easier games, the Turkish stadiums are not that friendly too.
Hala Madrid, a por la Decima!
They are a good team and not to be underestimated. They have Drogba too. He has a habit of making his teams brilliant.
But we are undeniably better and if the boys keep their heads in their hellish stadium, it should be fine. Unfortunate that the first leg is at home, but you can’t have everything.
From the last game, I think. What do you think about this picture 😀

Love it!
I think we’ll win;)
