Thanksies :3 But I kinda have an urge to finally get a user pic of one of my favorite players! The problem is that I can’t choose :P
“People will realise I am a good football player”
Karim Benzema gave a stellar and decisive performance against Hercules. He, Iker Casillas and Xabi Alonso commented on the match.
Benzema
“Whenever we speak, Mourinho always tells me I can do much for the team on the pitch. People will realise I am a good player, I just need to play. Before the game, I told the coach I was going to work to play more.”
Casillas
“The important thing is we continue to win and to be at the top. Real Madrid were different in the second half from the team they were in the first. Our mentality changed. Our reaction to losing against a difficult opponent was also important. We played at a small and complicated venue.”
“We are all very happy for Benzema. He deserved to play this well after having to listen to endless comments about him during the past week.”
“Mourinho is a phenomenon because he controls each half very well and always knows how to say the right thing at the right time. Our reaction in the second half was due in part to what he said in the dressing room and to the successful substitutions he made.”
Alonso
“We know every point dropped could eventually be decisive. That’s why these three are so important. We will also try to seal our pass to the next round in the Champions League in Milan this week.”
I love how everyone is so happy for Benzema and the way Mou gives him his full support, just like he did with Pipita when he wasn’t performing.
cc-lynn replied to your post:I see Barca had a good game as well! No more “Gafe Villa”? :D LOL! They were AMAZING today! but it kinda broke my heart to see Sevilla lose so harshly. I love that you used Crackovia! gifs… is it wrong that I find Bruno Oro as Crackovia!Villa more handsome than the real Villa? :X
It’s nice to hear they’re doing so much better (omg 5-0!), because it seemed that every time I sat down to watch a Barca game to see how they’re playing, they didn’t really impress me. I’m also happy for Villa :)
is it wrong that I find Bruno Oro as Crackovia!Villa more handsome than the real Villa? :X
I do too! But… Bruno Oro is just so damn gorgeous! We can’t be blamed!
lostinmadrid replied to your post:I hope someone gifs that pre-kick off SerIker kiss It’s so awesome that Sergio is that “kissing-each-other” type, but I think Iker isn’t… But he always hugging/kissing back Sergio.
It really is! Gotta love Serhhio for that :) I’d probably die of shock if I saw Finnish guys do something like that. Our culture totally blows T___T I also agree about Iker! That’s why it’s so lovely that he lets Sergio be so affectionate toward him <3 Sergio is special.
-lizofthelions replied to your post:I went through my blog archives and found a happy… sounds familiar :] i actually ran to my dad’s house (where it was shipped) in 100+ heat (fahrenheit) to recieve it. i then spent the next hour looking through the pictures, the next 5 celebrating on tumblr and then the next days reading it.
Ah, happy memories :) Thanks for sharing! I remember staying up all night when I got my book and reading it on my balcony in the warm night air until the sun came up.

anxiousmoewin replied to your post:I’ve been thinking about this long and hard IKR he is ! Honestly that might sound kinda shallow but i first only became a football fan because i accidentally saw Iker playing on tv and found him irresistible. -.-
Shallow, yeah, but perfectly understandable :P I think Iker’s face is pretty much perfect. (this is the artist in me talking) He has a fine bone structure and his nose, eyebrows, eyes and mouth, everything is in perfect symmetry, nothing is “off”.
keahrochelle replied to your post:I went through my blog archives and found a happy… I love your face!! :) haha
I take that as a huuuuge compliment because it was super red from running in that heat :D
Even though Sergio is my favorite in almost every single way possible and no one will ever take his #1 place in my heart, I think Iker is the sexiest futbolista out there. I don’t even remember the last time I found a man so attractive.
akillia replied to your post: I hope someone gifs that pre-kick off SerIker kiss dont think so, but becks used to kiss iker too.¨
Well, those two were special, super BFFs! :P
rubanrose replied to your post: Tumblr answer Well I guess they gave him the 5.5 because he didn’t really do anything in that type of situation and for strikers, that’s “bad” or maybe they compared him to Benzema. His time will come. Pipita shows himself a lot when we need him
Yeah, it’s a striker’s “job” to score goals, but a 5.5 just seems so damn harsh… I mean, I wouldn’t give that rating to anyone unless they really, really failed.
*scroll scroll scroll* Should have used “read more” xD *scroll scroll scroll*
Mourinho gave perfect and correct orders during half-time that changed the team”
Cristiano Ronaldo (2) and Angel di Maria scored the goals that gave Real Madrid a 3-1 against Hercules.
Cristiano Ronaldo
“I’m in great form and having a phenomenal run. I scored goals and I’m happy because we are still leaders. The team played well after half-time, doing the never-easy task of scoring three goals. I am also very happy for Benzema. He played a decisive role and assisted me in our third goal.”
“Mourinho gave perfect and correct orders during half-time that changed the team. Everything has to work on the pitch, it isn’t enough to attack well. Everything we did in the second half was perfect and that’s why we won.”
Di Maria
“I am very happy. Winning was what really mattered. We deserved it because we changed in the second half and did our best to win. These are the games that help you win titles. We had to win whatever the cost. I’m happy because the fans support me. I always try to do my best. I play to help the team do well. I’m happy for the victory and we will start to think about Milan tomorrow.”
rubanrose replied to your post: Tumblr answer totally agree and I think Carvalho, Iker, and Marcelo deserved more, at least .5 points, ugh.
Agreed. Iker deserved at least a 7.0! And was Pipita’s performance really a 5.5? He didn’t score, but he wasn’t that fail…

almost 1:30 am in Finland :) That reminds me, we’ll be turning the clocks to wintertime tonight!

leonardoretardo replied to your post:I hope someone gifs that pre-kick off SerIker kiss i like to think it’s a sergio privilege because they are such great friends :’)
Yup, and they’ve known each other for so long :)
rubanrose replied to your post: Player Ratings: Hercules 1-3 Real Madrid so harsh indeed.
They totally forgot to mention that Sergio missed 3 games because he was injured… But I have to say I agree about Pipita. I was another night filled with this:
