Real Madrid Thread

Not true, according to Sky Italia Ibra s agent stated that they received an offer on par with Kaka s one.

Of course, because the valour of Etoo is big. Etoo is priced 50 millions. Add 10 millions to that and makes 60.
 
Higuain is in the teams "project" according to Perez, so yes he will stay.

RVN and Saviola I think are definite outs. Robben depends if they get Silva or not. Huntelaar also if he accepts his sub role or not.

Raul, imo, will not get to play next season.

here what i think will be played:

-Robben(Higuain)--Kaka(Raul)--Ronaldo(Marcelo)(?)--
------------------Villa(Huntelaar)-----------------

As for Eto'o and Ibra issue. I believe Ibra is wort more than 10mill+Eto'o.

Ibra is a match changer and can run from back and finish. Eto'o is a pure finisher who depends more on his teammates. Plus, Ibra's star is just shining while Eto'o's star shined 4 years ago.

I wish Saviola, Salgado, Dudek and Guti will be sold, they are unuseful and old. by now Real have too many players to sell
 
Until they improve their defence and properly replace Makelele, they are going to struggle to keep up with Barca, Galacticos or not.

I agree with this. Regarding Madrid, they better start signing some good midfield players, I don't think Cristiano and Kaka are a good couple, they depend too much on space and pace. In my opinion, Diego would have been a better player for Madrid and they already have Snejder who is one of the best in his role, but they are again solely obsessed with big names and selling shirts.
 
Has Perez ever bought a defensive player?

He doesn't understand the concept. Last time he was in charge he refused to give Makelele a decent wage anywhere near the amount the other Galactico's were getting as he was a 'defensive player' and in Perez' view, didnt warrant it. Some of the other players protested he was worth it and tried to explain how vital he was but Perez didn't think a player who passes the ball 5 yards sideways was worth anything and off Claude went to Chelsea and Real fucked up.
 
Their defensive line in the Galacticos era was: Samuel, Helguera, Woodgate, R Carlos, Salgado, Pavon, and Raul Bravo. Definitely not considered a world class defence line.

This year I think their defence will b better if they were able to get Maicon. But still they need a world class CB as I prefer Ramos as a RB and he developed into a great one. I will be sad not to see Ramos in that position.
 
Ramos was crap last season really, Going forward he's class but defensively he's awful. Pepe not that great either.
 
sergio ramos? or juande ramos?

i really don't ever understand the madrid defence. like for past few years of watching the defense style and way they play, like even alot of 'soccer' moms could do a better job, at times they don't seem to half a style which sounds ridiculous but hopefully pelegrini gets his chance to put his stamp on the team and if they play like villareal have done in the past, something to fear but i don't think pelegrini gets to choose who to buy or not.

as he normally goes for south americans, is fair to say kaka is in squad but if u look at countrys and type of players he normally goes for, is nothing compared to what there going for now which is a shame.
 
They have just lacked organisation in the past, something that Capello brought to the defence until he was sacked.

I think Pepe and Ramos will excel if Pellegrini brings some organisation to the back line.
 
I find it funny at how rarely Real Brings something new to the table. They always tend to buy already fabricated players, they never show up with a talent in their first team. How many have real produced for their first team?
 
I suppose you could argue Higuain and Marcelo were fairly unknown before they bought them, in the same way Ronaldo was unknown before United bought him. Then you've got Raul, Guti and Casillas who are all from the youth team plus Miguel Torres, Parejo and De La Red. There no worse than many other teams around Europe in this respect.
 
I took it to another side. They barelly ever buy kids to grow up in the club, by that i mean buying players that did well last season, thats what they have been doing for the last couple of seasons. Even tough most of them were average players for a club like Real (Drenthe, Huntelaar, etc). Lets wait and see who they will buy for the defence. Any names around for Madrids defence?
 
Were Gago and Higuain proven when Real bought them? I think they are more than average. Garay also I think will be good.

Even Marcelo is a very good player.
 
:LOL: Are you serious Tobi, Real and Potential? They've got one of the best up and coming strikers in Higuan and have just signed Benzema and might get Villa.
 
I doubt they will get Villa.

Someone should remove this poll though, :)
 
Yes I'm serious, they brought him back from his loan spell for a reason, he is a good player.
 
Sounds like Ribery is next. Crikey. Does this mean Raul isn't going to get a game?

--Ronaldo--Kaka---Ribery-
---------Benzema---------

Wow.
