The Daily Merengue is a place where you can feel free to discuss all things football. Do not be alarmed by the overt RMCF bias. It’s in the name!
Shoutout to the mods who do a fantastic job, Felipejack , Kung_Fu_Zizou, Juninho, NeRObutBlanco and yours truly, Valyrian Steel.
Disappointing result on the road.
Started off well but then looked lackluster especially in the second half. In the end thank God for the post. Rodrygo’s dribbling is world class, Jude continues to amaze and Lunin should be top choice.

Look at that pass from Brahim. The perfect height / weight / dip. Just over the heads of the Betis defensive line. Again, Jude cutting diagonally into the box before the pass arrives, brilliant control with his chest. Ballin:pic.twitter.com/feHdkmYPL2

Are we overreacting though?
The over-reaction after dropping two points at one of the toughest away games on the schedule without half your team is absolutely crazy.

He now has 10 MOTM awards.
STAT OF THE DAY:
Jude Bellingham still has not gone 2 games in a row without scoring as a Real Madrid player.
20 G/A in 18 games so far. WOW. pic.twitter.com/1G6h8zu9kW

Strange weekend of football so far.
Bayern Munich destroyed, United destroyed, Arsenal bottling, Dortmund lost, Milan Lost and a few more surprising results. It be like that sometimes. Hopefully this trend continues today with Atletico and Barca. Enjoy your Sunday folks.
