This squad depth is something we lacked when Carlo was here. We have a 'SUPER squad' now, which pretty much allow us to compete for all the 3 trophies.

Kiukweli tuna sub iliyoimarika sana, yaani key bila key players tunashinda smooth.

Ndio ubora unaonekana hapo kikosi kikiwa finyu mkipata majeruhi wawili au kadi timu inaanza kuboronga

 

[Lukub]

James mchezaji mzuri ila team ikicheza kumzunguka jambo hili gumu wakati CR7 na Bale wanapokuwa uwanjani ni opportunity cost .

 

[PAGAN]

What a performance! Watu wengi walikuwa wanapiga kelele kuhusu the lineup. Ndio mkae mkijua Zizou knows best.

Sarabia (Sevilla): "We didn't know how to compete in the first half hour"

Zidane's Post-Match Presser:

"It’s obvious that starting the year like this is very important.We wanted to put a lot of intensity in at the beginning and score and it couldn't have gone any better."

James
"He's had a good game.I'm happy with how he played and that's the same for everyone else. I’m also happy for the minutes that Morata and Asensio got."

The set up
"Some of those who played haven’t played as many minutes as other and they did very well."

"The first 45 minutes were spectacular, physically and technically, an almost perfect match. It's a knockout match and keeping a clear sheet was important".

Rotations
"When you play a different player, the important thing is that he gives you something.We have an important group and the players are happy to see their teammates who have played less minutes out on the field."

"Of course there are some players who are more important than others but in the end we’ll win with everyone. One player can make a difference, like Cristiano always does, he’s a different player."

"To win everything we want, we are going to need everyone. The season is long and there are a lot of games. We're going to need all of the players".

The opponent
"Sevilla are very good team and full of confidence. Playing how we did against them gives you more satisfaction. There is a second-leg and our qualification is not certain."

Cristiano
"I’ll not rest him on Saturday. He’ll play, and he’ll play a lot of games. Don't worry".

Unbeaten run
"We don't talk about that much in the changing room. When a game comes we try to prepare well and try to win, but without thinking about the run of games without losing”.

 

[Salamander]

James:

"We performed well despite the absences of some players and we produced a great performance."

"The tie isn't over yet, we still have to go to Sevilla and show real concentration and intensity and produce an excellent performance there".

"I just want to perform well whenever I'm given the chance and do a good job, to help the team, just as I did today."

"Everyone in the squad always wants to play all of the time. I'm fine and we all go through rough patches. This is a new year and a new life, I'm staying put".

Vibes
"I felt good out there. Besides the two goals, I think that I played well, just as the rest of the team did."

"I'm happy at Real Madrid. This is the club that I always dreamed of playing for and when I hear that Bernabéu chanting my name there's nothing like it".

 

[Salamander]

Varane:

"We're happy with the win, and in particular with the first-half performance, because it's not easy to beat a side like Sevilla."

"We've made a good start to the year. I celebrated the goal with Zidane and we hugged each other as we celebrated the excitement of the goal. I thanked him because I'm learning a lot from him as I continue to improve and grow".

Winning streak
"We've got to recognise the significance of the unbeaten run because it's no mean feat. We must now look forward as we try to remain unbeaten".

"James is pleased, as we all are. He's got real quality and we're delighted for him when he's enjoying his football and scoring goals."

"Everyone who plays comes in and gives their all for the team, and that sees us achieve good results. This is a team effort, we're a group, and that's what you need".

This squad depth is something we lacked when Carlo was here. We have a 'SUPER squad' now, which pretty much allow us to compete for all the 3 trophies.

A coach is what we lacked in Carlo. Dude had all his subs planned before the game. Same script everyday.

Look at his Bayern now. He's made them so ordinary, even Arsenal are starting to believe they have a chance against.

 

[Salamander]

Casemiro:

"We played really well, it was perhaps one of our best performances of the season. We produced a strong all-round display for the full 90 minutes."

"You can see that we're on form, we continue to grow and there's still a long way to go this season".

The return leg
"The tie is still very much alive and we know that the hardest part is still to come. They're a tough prospect at home, where they make things difficult for you."

"Whenever you take to the field in a Real Madrid shirt you always have to battle and play hard. We must continue on in this vein all season".

Refereeing display
"We're talking about one of the top referees in LaLiga here. He might make mistakes, but he always tries to perform to his best".

 

[Salamander]

Casilla:

"I'd give the performance a 10/10, we were very disciplined from the start right through to the final whistle."

"We played really well in the first half and after the break we kept the rhythm up and maintained possession."

"The team performed well, we showed good application and we must continue on in this vein."

"When you go a while without a game, sometimes it tells, but today I felt comfortable out there and the team helped me".

James' performance
"He's a great player and he's important to us. He's now tired because he put in loads of effort and he's happy with the win and his goals. Zidane has had a perfect year and let's hope it's the first of many more".

Refereeing
"The referee's performance wasn't decisive, he made errors on both sides. I was a long way from the penalty, but a referee, just like a player, can either get it wrong or right".

Cules always playing the victim cards. From Zidane's luck, to ref conspiracies. They never own their losses. More than a club indeed.
