Benzema is gonna be a Madrid legend bra. He’s been there for so long, scoring the minimum required goals to keep his contract rolling.

That was pretty damn good from Emre Mor, too. And you don’t want to defend a counter attack vs Reus and Aubameyang.

1 goal, 1 assist. Some Bernabeau debut for Aubameyang.
Wouldn’t worry about Hazard. He’ll be their willing Galactico signing after ban.— #CarefreeDaily ? (@CarefreeDaily) December 7, 2016
United should go for Aubameyang asap, he’s got everything we’re missing, pace, power & a killer touch in front of goal #mufc

Beautiful goal by Reus, the build-up from Emre Mor and the pass from Aubameyang was absolute quality. Exciting team to watch
