Franck Ribery

[Barcaman]

If Real are prepared to pay 70 mil., then let them have him. It`s not like he had a better season than Henry anyway

 

[Gnegneri]

That's not what i was trying to say. Ribery always claimed that 'eventually he was the one who would decide where to play'. if he now goes to real, then fuck off.

i've said it before on this forum: too many players don't really care where to play. if ribery constantly declares his love for barcelona etc how damn strange would it be to play for real. i don't get that at all

 

[reiniksrobis]

He won't leave Bayern He has still many things to do here

 

[Barcaman]

I didn`t see Ribery "constantly declaring his love for Barca". Maybe on garbage.com?
I saw one or 2 articles in Catalan press since Barca-Bayern clash and that was it

that's one thing u can't count on with all due respect to Bayern they are a step below many teams in terms of ability of doing something in the short run in Europe.. he will sure leave.
to where that's the question.. i think we will offer VDV as part deal and Barca will offer Hleb

 

[BlaugranaGirl]

70 million is a ridiculous amount. We could sign a few good players and boost our squad depth for that.

It's probably all just tabloid junk though.

And what can Madrid do in Europe? Bayern will be much better next season, because we are going to get GOOD holding midfield. Van Bommel just sucks in that position, same goes to Ottl. Tymoshchuck will be one of our key players next season, new right back and new striker[Olič+another one] and we will compete in Europe again But I doubt RM will do

Mate no offense but you are even struggling in the German league, no German team are good enough to compete in the CL
all the names u mentioned are good enough for the Bundesliga .. not Europe and won't cut it in top 4 EPL , top 2 Spain ..etc

the best u can achieve is getting past the round of 16 with a help from the draw that's if you don't end up in UEFA cup like last year..

Bayern have Ribery.. your prize asset and great investment .. the rest can't compete in Europe .. the difference is Real Madrid can cause it's about what you aim for ..we aim for a Wenger-Ancelotti ..etc u aim for Van Gaal .. we aim for Cesc-Ribery-Kaka..etc u aim for the players u mentioned.. good luck in achieving any sort of European success this is not the 90's

Tevez confirmed on bbc that he wont be in Manchester next season..So they might also join the race for Ribery then!

 

[Galning]

70M is a joke, he's not worth that kind of money. Real can have him for all i care (if they pay 70M).

 

[R10(FCB)]

If he ends up in Real, i would like him to be slaughtered at every moment in the clasicos.

He wanted to play for Barcelona, he said it several times

Do you really believe him? players always say that when some big club are interested in them...

Bayern aimed for Wenger too. And if I'm not mistaken, Ancelotti was a candidate too. As was Mancini, Schuster, Advocaat and other coaches. And yes, you AIM for Ribery, but we GOT Ribery arty00231: Real can aim for everything they want, as could do every team in the world, but truth is- you can't get everything you aim for. The rest can't compete in Europe? What about Lahm, Ze Roberto, Klose, Lucio? Bayern are just too predictable- left flank does it all. Right side absolutely sucks. And do you think Gourcuff, Hleb, Llorente, Misimovič, Rafinha, Enke, Adler are bad aims? Do you think Madrid's Gago is better than Tymoshchuck? Do you think Raul is better than Olič[Raul is legend, I admit that, but he is not same, old Raul anymore, while Olič has AMAZING workrate, can run much faster than Raul]. Do you think Cannavaro-Pepe/Metzelder are better than Lucio-Demichelis? Do you think Hainze is better than Lahm[ :grin:]?? You have better GK, right flank! No disrespect for Madrid, I don't hate him, but I think they aren't SO much better than Bayern. I guess, it's the same level.

You're right! I still don't understand how Real could threaten us untill they lost to Valencia. The only players I would keep in that team if I was the coach is Higuain, Ramos, Iker, Robben (but doubtfully though), Lass, Raul (but he's not getting any younger) Pepe (doubtfully, you all know why).
Bayern made the mistake that they tried to outplay us when they should have parked the buss just like Chelski and maybe Man U (hopefully not).

 

[Quash]

Good points Reini. However for the Gago point I must butt in and say he isn't Madrid quality to begin with

 

[Canto]

i don't think he would be a good signing for ye IMO as a neutral and looking from an outside perspective i think you should concentrate on your defense abit more ather then working on one of the best attacks in the world and if he does sign what would that mean for Henry and Eto'o who have both been very good four ye this season!

i think ye need a new Left back and a world class centre back to partner either Pique or Puyol both of whom i don't rate that highly i also think you should add depth to your squad..look at the depth we have for example he right back potion we have the following players to choose from when all fit..Brown.Neville.Rafeal.O'Shea.Hargreaves there 5 players that would do exelent jobs there when called upon ye don't really have that!

i think if you sort out them two areas ye will be the best team in the world no question
