    No chance of that. He's the John Terry of Madrid.

    Him or Mourinho don't get along and everyone knows this, so this is the reason behind it. Also why he isn't getting a game. Once you fall out of favour with Casillas and possibly Ramos your out that door regardless of who you are. Raul, Guti & Casillas had this power years ago over a few managers. No idea how its even aloud

    Aye he basically knows he will be number 1 next season , Iker , Ramos made it clear to the club if Jose stays they was off a few weeks back , Perez said he had plans in place for if he goes or stays , club will look to move on Modric so expect Jose to try take him to Chelsea with him and maybe pepe .

    Meant to be as good as done for Carlo Ancelotti to replace Jose .

    Klopp: “It was not a fright. It was just what we expected. We knew we had to react well, which is what we managed to do.

    Klopp on thoughts in final stages: "At those moments I thought if * wills we go to the final. If he does not want it, we will not.

    Klopp: "The whole game was such a crazy game from the first second.

    Klopp: "I thought Ramos could do with Lewandowski whatever he wanted. To stay cool in situations like this is absoultely great."

    Klopp: "We absolutely deserve to go to Wembley. I never thought this'd happen, its unbelievable. Im so proud of my team, they are so young.

    Klopp: “We didnt need luck, coz we played really well. To reach final you must suffer. But we deserved to go through.”

    Klopp: "Mats felt responsible in Dortmund. Now, surely, he is very happy that we have gone through, and I have a lot of respect for him."

    Klopp: "I have watched Wimbledon often. But going to Wembley will be one of the greatest moments of our lives."

    Klopp: "In Wembley we will not be satisfied to be a finalist. We want to be the winner of this cup. We will see what will happen."

    Mourinho's time at Real Madrid was really a waste, theyre talking about it on Press Pass. They are no better than when he took over, he never won enough trophies and has left them with no real changes or with any style of play than when he took over.

    Didn't get the commentators fascination for modric tonight. Gundogan totally outshone him over the two games. He's been a very poor signing for Madrid imo

    I think Lopez is actually a better GK than Casillas currently, no matter about the falling out or not

    Agreed. I was amazed they signed him. He's decent at times but not much better than that.

    At the time I didn't think he was good enough. In all honesty, Spurs are probably his level. The only reason for them overlooking Gundogan and talking about Modric is the fact he used to be in the EPL. Gundogan was excellent over the two legs.

    They could have bought Cazorla and Isco for the same money. :56:
    I agree. He should be Spain's number one on current form.

    As I said earlier, he's like the John Terry of RM. No matter how he plays, he always seemed to get credit. For me, he is one of the most overrated players I've ever known. Not saying he is *, just nowhere near as good as some make him out to be.

    Indeed he does, i think the problem is hes the only player in the team at the minute that has come through there youth system.

    I remember someone saying he always does the specatular dives/saves when there is no need for them.
