Jose M: Ronaldo og Benzema ude mod Spurs


Don't know their source, but usually they're very reliable and quite slow to get to these things.
In the end much will depend on our own performance of course, but if this is true then surely it's a nice little pick-me-up for the weekend

Sweet news. Technically I don't like to see any player miss out but **** it nice one. If they are back for the game at the lane then no probs we can deal with them in front of our home fans. That away match is rough we need all the help we can get

I bet this news "evolves" as the match grows nearer...

If Jose mourinho said he was eating Pasta, you would still have to check under the bolognaise sauce to see if he was telling the truth.

I will believe his team selection news, when i see it.

I agree with the others, i'll believe it when I don't actually see Ronaldo or Benzema on the pitch, Tuesday.

Agreed I don't trust Mourinho.

Mind games........... lol you watch both will stroll out onto the pitch tuesday night.

You should never believe this sort of thing. Fergie, Mourinho, Wenger, even dear old Harry, they all engage in these antics. I'm sure those three have niggles, but I'm not going to rule out a 'miraculous' recovery.

Mind games!! Don't believe him for a second. I'll only believe him when i see the team sheets on tuesday. As much of a boost it is if they are out their will still be a player who can cause us problems, all top teams have replacements. Heard Higuain is fit now too?? Anyway still wouldn't mind seeing them miss out! COYS

Don't we already have a match thread ?

[BigDub]

It's certainly a wait and see sort of thing.

Fact is, I believe we can get a result against Madrid with or without Ronaldo. I expect Crouch to provide serious issues for their back line and hope and pray that Sandro continues his top form. Either that or Hudd comes in and takes care of it.

this is just jose playing games

i can honestly expect to see at least one of those three on the pitch on tuesday night

Marcelo being missing could also work to our advantage.
